For the mountains shall be moved, and the hills shall tremble; but my mercy shall not depart from thee, and the covenant of my peace shall not be moved: said the Lord that hath mercy on thee.
Ibn Ezra
The mountains shall depart, etc. It is possible that the mountains should depart, but my kindness cannot depart from thee. The covenant of my peace, etc. A figure taken from the mutual promise between husband and wife, who live together in peace and happiness. תמוטינה Shall be removed. It is the same form as תשובֶינׇה (Ez. 16:55); the plural feminine of the verb ע״ו has two forms.
Hebrew and Aramaic words are the commentator’s citations of the sacred text; the English translation that follows each is the translator’s.
