10:7 Samaria and its king will be carried off
like a twig on the surface of the waters.
10:8 The high places of the “House of Wickedness” will be destroyed;
it is the place where Israel sins.
Thorns and thistles will grow up over its altars.
Then they will say to the mountains, “Cover us!”
and to the hills, “Fall on us!”
10:9 O Israel, you have sinned since the time of Gibeah,
and there you have remained.
Did not war overtake the evildoers in Gibeah?
10:10 When I please, I will discipline them;
I will gather nations together to attack them,
to bind them in chains for their two sins.
