< 何西阿書 1 >

1 [前編:歐瑟亞結婚的意義]一:烏齊雅、約堂、[阿哈次和希則克亞]為猶大王,約阿士的兒子雅洛貝罕為以色列王時,上主有話傳給貝厄黎的兒子歐瑟亞。
[the] word of Yahweh - which it came to Hosea [the] son of Beeri in [the] days of Uzziah Jotham Ahaz Hezekiah [the] kings of Judah and in [the] days of Jeroboam [the] son of Joash [the] king of Israel.
2 上主開始藉歐瑟亞發言時,上主對歐瑟亞說:「你去娶一個娼婦為妻,讓她生淫亂的子女,因為此地淫亂放蕩,背離了上主。」
[the] beginning [when] he spoke Yahweh by Hosea. And he said Yahweh to Hosea go take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of prostitution for continually it prostitutes itself the land from after Yahweh.
3 歐瑟亞便去娶了狄布拉因的女兒默爾為妻;她懷孕,給他生了一個兒子。
And he went and he took Gomer [the] daughter of Diblaim and she conceived and she bore to him a son.
4 上主對歐瑟亞說:「你要給他起名叫依次勒耳,因為過不久,我要向耶胡家追討依次勒耳的血債,要消滅以色列家的王室。
And he said Yahweh to him call name his Jezreel for yet a little and I will visit [the] blood of Jezreel on [the] house of Jehu and I will put an end to [the] kingdom of [the] house of Israel.
5 到那一天,我必要在依次勒耳山谷折斷以色列的弓。」
And it will be on the day that and I will break [the] bow of Israel in [the] valley of Jezreel.
6 哥默爾再懷孕,生了一個女兒,上主對歐瑟亞說:「你要給她起名叫羅魯阿瑪 (不受愛憐者,) 因為我不再愛憐以色列家,以致我不再寬宥他們。
And she conceived again and she bore a daughter and he said to him call name her Lo-Ruhamah for not I will repeat again I will have compassion on [the] house of Israel that certainly I will forgive them.
7 但我要愛憐猶大家族,要拯救他們,因為我上主是他們的天主;但是我不以弓、弩、刀劍、戰爭、戰馬和騎士拯救他們。
And [the] house of Judah I will have compassion on and I will save them by Yahweh God their and not I will save them by bow and by sword and by battle by horses and by horsemen.
8 羅魯阿瑪斷奶之後,哥默爾又懷孕,生了一個兒子。
And she weaned Lo-Ruhamah and she conceived and she bore a son.
9 上主說:「你給他起名叫羅阿米 (非我人民),因為你們已不是我的人民,我已也不是你們的的上主。」
And he said call name his Lo-Ammi for you not [are] people my and I not I will belong to you.
10 以色列子民的數目將如海邊的沙粒,不可斗量,不可勝數;在那裏人曾對他們說:「你們不是我的人民。」在那裏人也要對他們說:「你們是永生天主的人民。」
And it will be [the] number of [the] people of Israel like [the] sand of the sea which not it will be measured and not it will be counted and it will be in [the] place where it was said to them not [are] people my you it will be said to them children of [the] God living.
11 猶大子民和以色列子民將在一起,要為自己選定一個首領;他們要由此地擴展,因為依次勒耳的日子要成為偉大的。
And they will be gathered [the] people of Judah and [the] people of Israel together and they will appoint for themselves a chief one and they will go up from the land for [will be] great [the] day of Jezreel.
