(63:19b) If only you would tear apart the sky and come down! The mountains would tremble before you!

The mountains trembled before the Lord, the God of Sinai; before the Lord God of Israel.

For the hills bring it food, where all the wild animals play.

The earth heaved and shook; the roots of the mountains trembled; they heaved because he was angry.

For this reason we do not fear when the earth shakes, and the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea,

Even before the mountains came into existence, or you brought the world into being, you were the eternal God.

The mountains melt like wax before the Lord, before the Lord of the whole earth.

as the mountains rose up, and the valleys went down – to the place you appointed for them.

As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people, now and forevermore.

He covers the sky with clouds, provides the earth with rain, and causes grass to grow on the hillsides.

All you who live in the world, who reside on the earth, you will see a signal flag raised on the mountains; you will hear a trumpet being blown.

Let the desert and its cities shout out, the towns where the nomads of Kedar live! Let the residents of Sela shout joyfully; let them shout loudly from the mountaintops.

I will make the trees on the mountains and hills wither up; I will dry up all their vegetation. I will turn streams into islands, and dry up pools of water.

When you performed awesome deeds that took us by surprise, you came down, and the mountains trembled before you.

The mountains tremble before him, the hills convulse; the earth is laid waste before him, the world and all its inhabitants are laid waste.

When the mountains see you, they shake. The torrential downpour sweeps through. The great deep shouts out; it lifts its hands high.

Instead, the land you are crossing the Jordan to occupy is one of hills and valleys, a land that drinks in water from the rains,

For a fire has been kindled by my anger, and it burns to lowest Sheol; it consumes the earth and its produce, and ignites the foundations of the mountains.
