World English Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1“When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
1以色列 年幼的時候，我愛他， 就從 埃及 召出我的兒子來。
2They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burned incense to engraved images.
2先知越發招呼他們， 他們越發走開， 向諸 巴力 獻祭， 給雕刻的偶像燒香。
3Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them by their arms, but they didn’t know that I healed them.
3我原教導 以法蓮 行走， 用膀臂抱着他們， 他們卻不知道是我醫治他們。
4I drew them with cords of a man, with ties of love; and I was to them like those who lift up the yoke on their necks; and I bent down to him and I fed him.
4我用慈繩愛索牽引他們； 我待他們如人放鬆 牛的 兩腮夾板， 把糧食放在他們面前。
5“They won’t return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian will be their king, because they refused to repent.
5他們必不歸回 埃及 地， 亞述 人卻要作他們的王， 因他們不肯歸向 我 。
6The sword will fall on their cities, and will destroy the bars of their gates, and will put an end to their plans.
6刀劍必臨到他們的城邑， 毀壞門閂，把人吞滅， 都因他們 隨從 自己的計謀。
7My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, he certainly won’t exalt them.
7我的民偏要背道離開我； 眾先知雖然招呼他們歸向至上的 主 ， 卻無人尊崇 主 。
8“How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
8以法蓮 哪，我怎能捨棄你？ 以色列 啊，我怎能棄絕你？ 我怎能使你如 押瑪 ？ 怎能使你如 洗扁 ？ 我回心轉意， 我的憐愛大大發動。
9I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim, for I am God, and not man—the Holy One among you. I will not come in wrath.
9我必不發猛烈的怒氣， 也不再毀滅 以法蓮 。 因我是上帝，並非世人， 是你們中間的聖者； 我必不在怒中臨到你們。
10They will walk after the LORD, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west.
10耶和華必如獅子吼叫， 子民必跟隨他。 他一吼叫， 他們就從西方急速而來。
11They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will settle them in their houses,” says the LORD.
11他們必如雀鳥從 埃及 急速而來， 又如鴿子從 亞述 地來到。 我必使他們住自己的房屋。 這是耶和華說的。
12Ephraim surrounds me with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit. Judah still strays from God, and is unfaithful to the Holy One.
12以法蓮 用謊話， 以色列 家用詭計圍繞我； 猶大 卻靠上帝掌權， 向聖者有忠心。
