The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
KJV

וְ/נִשְׁמְד֞וּ בָּמ֣וֹת אָ֗וֶן חַטַּאת֙ יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל ק֣וֹץ וְ/דַרְדַּ֔ר יַעֲלֶ֖ה עַל מִזְבְּחוֹתָ֑/ם וְ/אָמְר֤וּ לֶֽ/הָרִים֙ כַּסּ֔וּ/נוּ וְ/לַ/גְּבָע֖וֹת נִפְל֥וּ עָלֵֽי/נוּ
Louis Segond 1910
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!
KJV
The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
