Hosea 10:7-9
New American Standard Bible 1995
7 Samaria will be (A)cut off with her king
Like a stick on the surface of the water.
8 Also the (B)high places of Aven, the (C)sin of Israel, will be destroyed;
(D)Thorn and thistle will grow on their altars;
Then they will (E)say to the mountains,
“Cover us!” And to the hills, “Fall on us!”
9 From the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel;
There they stand!
Will not the battle against the sons of iniquity overtake them in Gibeah?
Hosea 10:7-9
New International Version
7 Samaria’s king will be destroyed,(A)
swept away like a twig on the surface of the waters.
8 The high places(B) of wickedness[a](C) will be destroyed—
it is the sin of Israel.
Thorns(D) and thistles will grow up
and cover their altars.(E)
Then they will say to the mountains, “Cover us!”(F)
and to the hills, “Fall on us!”(G)
