何西阿书 5
1 众祭司啊，要听我的话！ 以色列家啊，要留心听！ 王家啊，要侧耳而听！ 审判要临到你们， 因你们在米斯巴如网罗， 在他泊山如铺张的网。
Hear ye this, O ye priests, And hearken, O house of Israel, And give ear, O house of the king! For judgment is coming upon you, Because ye have been a snare at Mizpah, And an outspread net upon Tabor.
2 这些悖逆的人肆行杀戮， 罪孽极深； 我却斥责他们众人。
By their sacrifices they commit deep transgression, And I will bring chastisement upon them all.
3 以法莲为我所知； 以色列不能向我隐藏。 以法莲哪，现在你行淫了， 以色列被玷污了。
I know Ephraim, And Israel is not hidden from me; For thou committest fornication, O Ephraim, And Israel is defiled.
4 他们所行的使他们不能归向 神； 因有淫心在他们里面， 他们也不认识耶和华。
They will not frame their doings To return to their God; For a spirit of fornication is within them, And they have no regard to Jehovah.
5 以色列的骄傲当面见证自己。 故此，以色列和以法莲必因自己的罪孽跌倒； 犹大也必与他们一同跌倒。
The pride of Israel testifieth to his face; Therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall with them.
6 他们必牵着牛羊去寻求耶和华，却寻不见； 他已经转去离开他们。
With their flocks and with their herds shall they go to seek Jehovah, And shall not find him; He hath withdrawn himself from them.
7 他们向耶和华行事诡诈，生了私子。 到了月朔，他们与他们的地业必被吞灭。
They have been false to Jehovah, For they have begotten strange children; Now shall the new moon consume them with their possessions.
8 你们当在基比亚吹角， 在拉玛吹号， 在伯·亚文吹出大声，说： 便雅悯哪，有仇敌在你后头！
Blow ye the trumpet in Gibeah, And the cornet in Ramah; Cry aloud at Bethaven! Look behind thee, O Benjamin!
9 在责罚的日子，以法莲必变为荒场； 我在以色列支派中，指示将来必成的事。
Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke; Among the tribes of Israel do I make known what is sure.
10 犹大的首领如同挪移地界的人， 我必将忿怒倒在他们身上，如水一般。
The princes of Judah are like them that remove the land mark; I will pour out my wrath upon them like water.
11 以法莲因乐从人的命令， 就受欺压，被审判压碎。
Ephraim is oppressed; he is crushed with punishment, Because he willingly walked after the decree.
12 我使以法莲如虫蛀之物， 使犹大家如朽烂之木。
I am as a moth to Ephraim, And as rottenness to the house of Judah.
13 以法莲见自己有病， 犹大见自己有伤， 他们就打发人往亚述去见耶雷布王， 他却不能医治你们， 不能治好你们的伤。
When Ephraim saw his sickness, And Judah his wound, Then went Ephraim to the Assyrian, And Judah sent to the hostile king; But he will not be able to heal you, Nor will he cure you of your wound.
14 我必向以法莲如狮子， 向犹大家如少壮狮子。 我必撕裂而去， 我要夺去，无人搭救。
For I will be as a lion to Ephraim, And as a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear, and will depart; I will take away, and none shall rescue.
15 我要回到原处， 等他们自觉有罪，寻求我面； 他们在急难的时候必切切寻求我。
I will go back to my place, Till they have suffered for their sin, and seek my face! In their affliction they will seek me early.
