Then shall they say to the mountains, "Cover us," and to the hills, "Fall upon us." 9 O Israel, thou hast sinned as Gibeah did afore time, where they remained: should not the battle then come upon the wicked children, as well as upon the Gibeonites? 10 I will chasten them, even after mine own desire; the people shall be gathered together over them, when I punish them for their great wickedness.
