Hosea 10:8-10

The Voice

⁸The wicked high places where Israel’s people sinned will be destroyed;
thorns and thistles will cover their once-proud altars.
People will beg the mountains, “Surround us!”
They’ll plead with the hills, “Cover us!”^[a]

⁹Eternal One: From the days of Gibeah you, Israel, have sinned!^[b]
        And they’re still the same today. Nothing has changed.
        Will war overtake these people of wickedness in Gibeah?
¹⁰    At the time I choose, I’ll punish them:
        nations will gather against them
        because they have compounded their own guilt.
