Destroyed will be the high places of Aven,
    that are the sin of Israel.
        Both thorn and thistle will grow up over their altars.
They will call out to the mountains, ‘Cover us!’
    and to the hills, ‘Fall on us!’

“From the time of Gibeah,
    you have sinned, Israel;
There they took their stand;

10 When I’m ready, I will chasten them;
    and the people will gather against them,
        to imprison them for their two unrighteous acts.”[a]
