Hosea 5
1 Hear this, O ye priests, and attend, ye house of Israel, and give ear, O house of the king, for unto you pertaineth the judgment; for ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread upon Tabor.
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。
2 And they that fall away are gone deep in making slaughter; and I am rejected of them all.
这些悖逆的人肆行杀戮， 罪孽极深； 我却斥责他们众人。
3 I, even I, know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from Me; for now, O Ephraim, thou hast committed harlotry, Israel is defiled.
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。
4 Their doings will not suffer them to return unto their God; for the spirit of harlotry is within them, and they know not the LORD.
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。
5 But the pride of Israel shall testify to his face; and Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity, Judah also shall stumble with them.
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。
6 With their flocks and with their herds they shall go to seek the LORD, but they shall not find Him; He hath withdrawn Himself from them.
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。
7 They have dealt treacherously against the LORD, for they have begotten strange children; now shall the new moon devour them with their portions.
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。
8 Blow ye the horn in Gibeah, and the trumpet in Ramah; sound an alarm at Beth-aven: 'Behind thee, O Benjamin!'
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！
9 Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke; among the tribes of Israel do I make known that which shall surely be.
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。
10 The princes of Judah are like them that remove the landmark; I will pour out My wrath upon them like water.
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。
11 Oppressed is Ephraim, crushed in his right; because he willingly walked after filth.
以法莲因乐从人的命令， 就受欺压，被审判压碎。
12 Therefore am I unto Ephraim as a moth, and to the house of Judah as rottenness.
我使以法莲如虫蛀之物， 使犹大家如朽烂之木。
13 And when Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah his wound, Ephraim went to Assyria, and sent to King Contentious; but he is not able to heal you, neither shall he cure you of your wound.
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。
14 For I will be unto Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah; I, even I, will tear and go away, I will take away, and there shall be none to deliver.
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。
15 I will go and return to My place, till they acknowledge their guilt, and seek My face; in their trouble they will seek Me earnestly:
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。
