Hosea 10:6-8
Young's Literal Translation
6 Also it to Asshur is carried, a present to a warlike king, Shame doth Ephraim receive, And ashamed is Israel of its own counsel.
7 Cut off is Samaria! Its king [is] as a chip on the face of the waters.
8 And destroyed have been high places of Aven, the sin of Israel. Thorn and bramble go up on their altars, And they have said to hills, Cover us, And to heights, Fall upon us.

as tribute(B) for the great king.(C)

7 Samaria’s king will be destroyed,(F)
swept away like a twig on the surface of the waters.
