5
The people of Samaria tremble for their calf idol at Beth-aven. a The people mourn over it, and the priests wail for it, because its glory will be stripped away.
6
This idol they love so much will be carted away with them when they go as captives to Assyria, a gift to the great king there. Israel will be laughed at and shamed because its people have trusted in this idol.
