The places of worship at Beth Aven will be destroyed.
    They are where Israel sins.
Thorns and weeds will grow up
    and cover their altars.
Then they will say to the mountains, “Cover us!”
    And they will say to the hills, “Fall on us!”

“Israel, you have sinned since the time of Gibeah.[a]
    The people there have continued sinning.
But war will surely overwhelm them,
    because of the evil they have done there.
10 When I am ready,
    I will come to punish them.
Armies will come together against them.
    They will be punished for their many sins.
