Hosea 10:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ Samaria’s king will be destroyed.
    He will be like a twig swept away by a river.
⁸ The high places where Israel worshiped other gods
    will be destroyed.
    That’s where they sinned against the Lord.
Thorns and weeds will grow up there.
    They will cover the altars.
Then the people will say to the mountains, “Cover us!”
    They’ll say to the hills, “Fall on us!”
