Hosea 10:5-8

New American Standard Bible

⁵ The inhabitants of Samaria will fear
For the ^[a](A)calf of ^(B)Beth-aven.
Indeed, its people will mourn for it,
And its ^(C)idolatrous priests ^[b]will cry out over it,
Over its ^(D)glory, since it has left it.
⁶ The thing itself will be brought to ^(E)Assyria
As a gift of tribute to ^[c](F)King Jareb;
Ephraim will ^[d]be ^(G)seized with shame,
And Israel will be ashamed of its ^(H)own plan.
⁷ Samaria will be ^(I)destroyed with her king,
Like a twig on the surface of the water.
⁸ Also the ^(J)high places of Aven, the ^(K)sin of Israel, will be destroyed;
^(L)Thorns and thistles will grow on their altars;
Then they will ^(M)say to the mountains,
“Cover us!” And to the hills, “Fall on us!”
