New International Version

⁶ It will be carried to Assyria^(A)
    as tribute^(B) for the great king.^(C)
Ephraim will be disgraced;^(D)
    Israel will be ashamed^(E) of its foreign alliances.
⁷ Samaria’s king will be destroyed,^(F)
    swept away like a twig on the surface of the waters.
⁸ The high places^(G) of wickedness^[a](H) will be destroyed—
    it is the sin of Israel.
Thorns^(I) and thistles will grow up
    and cover their altars.^(J)
Then they will say to the mountains, “Cover us!”^(K)
    and to the hills, “Fall on us!”^(L)
