Hosea 10:8 in Context — Hosea 10
6 Elle sera transportée en Assyrie, Pour servir de présent au roi Jareb. La confusion saisira Éphraïm, Et Israël aura honte de ses desseins.
7 C’en est fait de Samarie, de son roi, Comme de l’écume à la surface des eaux.
8 Les hauts lieux de Beth-Aven, où Israël a péché, seront détruits; L’épine et la ronce croîtront sur leurs autels. Ils diront aux montagnes: Couvrez-nous! Et aux collines: Tombez sur nous!
9 Depuis les jours de Guibea tu as péché, Israël! Là ils restèrent debout, La guerre contre les méchants ne les atteignit pas à Guibea.
10 Je les châtierai à mon gré, Et des peuples s’assembleront contre eux, Quand on les enchaînera pour leur double iniquité.
