Hosea 10:5-8
Modern English Version
5 The inhabitants of Samaria fear
because of the calf of Beth Aven.
For its people mourn for it,
and its priests shriek for it,
because its glory has departed from it.
6 It will be carried to Assyria
as a tribute to King Jareb.[a]
Ephraim shall be put to shame,
and Israel shall be ashamed of his idol.[b]
7 As for Samaria, her king will perish
like a twig on the water.
8 The high places of Aven, the sin of Israel,
will be destroyed.
Thorn and thistle will grow
on their altars.
They will say to the mountains, Cover us,
and to the hills, Fall on us.

Hosea 10:5-8
Lexham English Bible
5 The inhabitants[a] of Samaria tremble
for the calf[b] of Beth-aven.
Indeed, his people will mourn for it,
and his idolatrous priests will wail[c] over it—
over its glory because it has departed from it.
6 It will also be brought to Assyria,
as tribute to the great king.[d]
Ephraim will obtain disgrace
and Israel will be ashamed from his advice.[e]
7 Samaria will be destroyed;
her king is like a chip on the surface of the water.
8 The high places of Aven,
the sin of Israel, will be destroyed.
Thorn and thistle will grow
on their altars.
They will say to the mountains, “Cover us,”
and to the hills, “Fall on us.”
