Hosea 10:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 It shall be also brought to Assyria, for a present unto king Jareb: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.
7 Of Samaria, the king thereof is destroyed, as the foam upon the water.
8 The high places also of [a]Aven shall be destroyed, even the sin of Israel: the thorn and the thistle shall grow upon their altars, and they shall say to the mountains, (A)Cover us, and to the hills, Fall upon us.
