< 何西阿書 12 >

1 厄弗辣因愛好颶風，整日追逐東風，說許多謊話，行許多暴行，既與亞述結盟，又給埃及送油。
Ephraim to pasture spirit: breath and to pursue east all [the] day lie and violence to multiply and covenant with Assyria to cut: make(covenant) and oil to/for Egypt to conduct
2 上主要與以色列爭辯，要按他們的行徑懲罰雅各伯，依照他的行為報復他：
and strife to/for LORD with Judah and to/for to reckon: punish upon Jacob like/as way: conduct his like/as deed his to return: pay to/for him
3 他在母胎中就欺騙了他的弟兄，及至壯年又曾與天神搏鬥；
in/on/with belly: womb to assail [obj] brother: male-sibling his and in/on/with strength his to strive with God
4 他與天神博鬥，並且獲得了勝利；他哭了，曾懇求他開恩；在貝特耳再遇見了他，在那裏天主對他說：──
and to reign to(wards) messenger: angel and be able to weep and be gracious to/for him Bethel Bethel to find him and there to speak: speak with us
5 上主，萬軍的天主，雅威是他的名號x──
and LORD God [the] Hosts LORD memorial his
6 「至於你，你應當歸向你的天主，遵守仁愛和正義，時刻仰望你的天主。」
and you(m. s.) in/on/with God your to return: return kindness and justice to keep: careful and to await to(wards) God your continually
7 厄弗辣因有如客納罕人，手裏拿著欺詐的天秤，喜行欺騙。
merchant in/on/with hand his balance deceit to/for to oppress to love: lover
8 厄弗辣因說：「我現在實在成了富翁，發了大財。」然而他所獲得的一切，為補贖他所犯的罪孽，仍嫌不夠。
and to say Ephraim surely to enrich to find strength to/for me all toil my not to find to/for me iniquity: crime which sin
9 自從在埃及地時，我就是上主，你的天主：我必再使你住在帳幕中，如在盛會的節日一樣。
and I LORD God your from land: country/planet Egypt still to dwell you in/on/with tent like/as day meeting: festival
10 是我向先知們說了話，是我增多了異象，我也必藉先知們消滅他們。
and to speak: speak upon [the] prophet and I vision to multiply and in/on/with hand: by [the] prophet to resemble
11 在基肋阿得只有罪惡，的確，他們只是虛無；在基耳加耳 他們向牛犢獻了祭，因此他們的祭壇必將成為田畦中的石堆。
if Gilead evil: wickedness surely vanity: vain to be in/on/with Gilgal cattle to sacrifice also altar their like/as heap upon furrow field
12 雅各伯曾逃到阿蘭平原，以色列曾為娶妻而服役，曾為娶妻而放羊。
and to flee Jacob land: country Aram and to serve Israel in/on/with woman: wife and in/on/with woman: wife to keep: guard
13 上主曾藉一位先知領以色列出離埃及，也藉一位先知保護了他們。
and in/on/with prophet to ascend: establish LORD [obj] Israel from Egypt and in/on/with prophet to keep: guard
14 但厄弗辣因大大激怒了上主，他的血債必要歸到他身上，他的主必要在他身上報復自己受的凌辱。
to provoke Ephraim bitterness and blood his upon him to leave and reproach his to return: pay to/for him lord his
