Hosea 10:5-6

5The people of Samaria will fear for the calf of Beth-aven.1 Indeed, its people will mourn over it with its idolatrous priests— those who rejoiced in its glory— for it has been taken from them into exile.6Yes, it will be carried to Assyria as tribute to the great king.2 Ephraim3 will be seized with shame; Israel will be ashamed of its wooden idols.4
