Hosea 7
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1when I would heal Israel, then is the iniquity of Ephraim uncovered, and the wickedness of Samaria, for they commit falsehood; and the thief entereth in, and the troop of robbers maketh a raid without.
1我想医治 以色列 的时候, 以法莲 的罪孽和 撒马利亚 的罪恶就显露出来。 他们行事虚谎, 内有贼人入室 偷窃 , 外有强盗成群骚扰。
2And let them not say to their heart — I remember all their wickedness; now their own doings have beset them about, they are before My face.
2他们心里并不思想我记念他们的一切恶; 他们所行的现在缠绕他们,都在我面前。
3They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.
3他们行恶使君王欢喜, 说谎使首领喜乐。
4They are all adulterers, as an oven heated by the baker, who ceaseth to stir from the kneading of the dough until it be leavened.
4他们都是行淫的, 像火炉被烤饼的烧热, 从抟面到发面的时候, 暂不使 火 着旺。
5On the day of our king the princes make him sick with the heat of wine, he stretcheth out his hand with scorners.
5在我们王 宴乐 的日子, 首领因酒的烈性成病; 王与亵慢人拉手。
6For they have made ready their heart like an oven, while they lie in wait; their baker sleepeth all the night, in the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.
6首领埋伏的时候,心中热如火炉, 就如烤饼的整夜睡卧, 到了早晨火气炎炎。
7They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges; all their kings are fallen, there is none among them that calleth unto Me.
7众民也热如火炉, 烧灭他们的官长。 他们的君王都仆倒而死; 他们中间无一人求告我。
8Ephraim, he mixeth himself with the peoples; Ephraim is become a cake not turned.
8以法莲 与列邦人搀杂; 以法莲 是没有翻过的饼。
9Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knoweth it not; yea, gray hairs are here and there upon him, and he knoweth it not.
9外邦人吞吃他劳力得来的,他却不知道; 头发斑白,他也不觉得。
10And the pride of Israel testifieth to his face; but they have not returned unto the LORD their God, nor sought Him, for all this.
10以色列 的骄傲当面见证自己, 虽遭遇这一切, 他们仍不归向耶和华—他们的 神, 也不寻求他。
11And Ephraim is become like a silly dove, without understanding; they call unto Egypt, they go to Assyria.
11以法莲 好像鸽子愚蠢无知; 他们求告 埃及 ,投奔 亚述 。
12Even as they go, I will spread My net upon them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation hath been made to hear.
12他们去的时候,我必将我的网撒在他们身上; 我要打下他们,如同空中的鸟。 我必按他们会众所听见的惩罚他们。
13Woe unto them! for they have strayed from Me; Destruction unto them! for they have transgressed against Me; Shall I then redeem them, seeing they have spoken lies against Me?
13他们因离弃我,必定有祸; 因违背我,必被毁灭。 我虽要救赎他们,他们却向我说谎。
14And they have not cried unto Me with their heart, though they wail upon their beds; they assemble themselves for corn and wine, they rebel against Me.
14他们并不诚心哀求我, 乃在床上呼号; 他们为求五谷新酒聚集, 仍然悖逆我。
15Though I have trained and strengthened their arms, yet do they devise evil against Me.
15我虽教导他们,坚固他们的膀臂, 他们竟图谋抗拒我。
16They return, but not upwards; they are become like a deceitful bow; their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue; this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
16他们归向,却不归向至上者; 他们如同翻背的弓。 他们的首领必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下; 这在 埃及 地必作人的讥笑。
