5 The inhabitants of Samaria will fear For thegcalf of Beth-aven. Indeed, its people will mourn for it, And its idolatrous priestshwill cry out over it, Over its glory, since it has departed from it. 6 The thing itself will be carried to Assyria As tribute toiKing Jareb; Ephraim willjbe seized with shame And Israel will be ashamed of its own counsel. 7 Samaria will be cut off with her king Like a stick on the surface of the water. 8 Also the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed; Thorn and thistle will grow on their altars; Then they will say to the mountains, “Cover us!” And to the hills, “Fall on us!” |
