Hosea 10:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ The thing itself will be carried to Assyria
as a present to the great king.^[a]
Ephraim will be disgraced.
Israel will be ashamed because of its plans.
⁷ The king of Samaria will be carried away
like a piece of wood on water.
⁸ The illegal worship sites of Aven will be destroyed.
Israel sins there.
Thorns and weeds will grow over those altars.
People will say to the mountains, “Cover us!”
and to the hills, “Fall on us!”
