8. The high places of Aven, the sin of Israel,will be destroyed.Thorn and thistle will growon their altars.They will say to the mountains, Cover us,and to the hills, Fall on us.
9. O Israel, you have sinned since the days of Gibeah.There they have continued.Will not the war in Gibeah against evildoersovertake them?
10. When I desire, I will punish them.The nations will be gathered against themwhen they are disciplined for their two transgressions.
