Commentators explain that "mountains of prey" is a powerful metaphor. It refers to the strongholds of violent enemies, such as robbers in their mountain fortresses or oppressive earthly kingdoms built on plunder. The verse contrasts God's true, shining glory with the power of these seemingly invincible, predatory forces.
