何西阿書 10
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1以色列 是茂盛的葡萄樹，結果繁多。 果子越多，就越增添祭壇； 地土越肥美，就越造美麗的柱像。
1Israel was a luxuriant vine, yielding fruit for himself. The more his fruit increased, the more he increased the altars. The better his land produced, the better he made the sacred pillars.
2他們心懷二意， 現今要定為有罪。 耶和華必拆毀他們的祭壇， 毀壞他們的柱像。
2Their hearts are devious; now they must bear their guilt. The LORD will break down their altars and demolish their sacred pillars.
3他們必說：我們沒有王， 因為我們不敬畏耶和華。 王能為我們做甚麼呢？
3Surely now they will say, “We have no king, for we do not revere the LORD. What can a king do for us?”
4他們為立約說 謊 言，起假誓； 因此，災罰如苦菜滋生在田間的犂溝中。
4They speak mere words; with false oaths they make covenants. So judgment springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of a field.
5撒馬利亞 的居民必因 伯‧亞文 的牛犢驚恐； 崇拜牛犢的民和喜愛牛犢的祭司 都必因榮耀離開它，為它悲哀。
5The people of Samaria will fear for the calf of Beth-aven. Indeed, its people will mourn with its idolatrous priests— those who rejoiced in its glory— for it has been taken from them into exile.
6人必將牛犢帶到 亞述 當作禮物， 獻給 耶雷布 王。 以法蓮 必蒙羞； 以色列 必因自己的計謀慚愧。
6Yes, it will be carried to Assyria as tribute to the great king. Ephraim will be seized with shame; Israel will be ashamed of its wooden idols.
7至於 撒馬利亞 ，她的王必滅沒， 如水面的沫子一樣。
7Samaria will be carried off with her king like a twig on the surface of the water.
8伯‧亞文 的邱壇－ 就是 以色列 取罪 的地方 必被毀滅； 荊棘和蒺藜必長在他們的祭壇上。 他們必對大山說：遮蓋我們！ 對小山說：倒在我們身上！
8The high places of Aven will be destroyed— it is the sin of Israel; thorns and thistles will overgrow their altars. Then they will say to the mountains, “Cover us!” and to the hills, “Fall on us!”
9以色列 啊， 你從 基比亞 的日子以來時常犯罪。 你們的先人曾站在那裏， 現今住 基比亞 的人 以為攻擊罪孽之輩的戰事臨不到自己。
9Since the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel, and there you have remained. Did not the battle in Gibeah overtake the sons of iniquity?
10我必隨意懲罰他們。 他們為兩樣的罪所纏； 列邦的民必聚集攻擊他們。
10I will chasten them when I please; nations will be gathered against them to put them in bondage for their double transgression.
11以法蓮 是馴良的母牛犢，喜愛踹 穀 ， 我卻將軛加在牠肥美的頸項上， 我要使 以法蓮 拉套。 猶大 必耕田； 雅各 必耙地。
11Ephraim is a well-trained heifer that loves to thresh; but I will place a yoke on her fair neck. I will harness Ephraim, Judah will plow, and Jacob will break the hard ground.
12你們要為自己栽種公義， 就能收割慈愛。 現今正是尋求耶和華的時候； 你們要開墾荒地，等他臨到， 使公義如雨降在你們身上。
12Sow for yourselves righteousness and reap the fruit of loving devotion; break up your unplowed ground. For it is time to seek the LORD until He comes and sends righteousness upon you like rain.
13你們耕種的是奸惡， 收割的是罪孽， 吃的是謊話的果子。 因你倚靠自己的行為， 仰賴勇士眾多，
13You have plowed wickedness and reaped injustice; you have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your own way and in the multitude of your mighty men,
14所以在這民中必有鬨嚷之聲， 你一切的保障必被拆毀， 就如 沙勒幔 在爭戰的日子拆毀 伯‧亞比勒 ， 將其中的母子一同摔死。
14the roar of battle will rise against your people, so that all your fortresses will be demolished as Shalman devastated Beth-arbel in the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to pieces along with their children.
15因他們的大惡， 伯特利 必使你們遭遇如此。 到了黎明， 以色列 的王必全然滅絕。
15Thus it will be done to you, O Bethel, because of your great wickedness. When the day dawns, the king of Israel will be utterly cut off.
