Hosea 9
1 Rejoice not, O Israel, unto exultation, like the peoples, for thou hast gone astray from thy God, thou hast loved a harlot's hire upon every corn-floor.
以色列啊，不要像外邦人欢喜快乐； 因为你行邪淫离弃你的 神， 在各谷场上如妓女喜爱赏赐。
2 The threshing-floor and the wine-press shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail her.
谷场和酒榨都不够以色列人使用； 新酒也必缺乏。
3 They shall not dwell in the LORD'S land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean food in Assyria.
他们必不得住耶和华的地； 以法莲却要归回埃及， 必在亚述吃不洁净的食物。
4 They shall not pour out wine-offerings to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto Him; their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners, all that eat thereof shall be polluted; for their bread shall be for their appetite, it shall not come into the house of the LORD.
他们必不得向耶和华奠酒， 即便奠酒也不蒙悦纳。 他们的祭物必如居丧者的食物， 凡吃的必被玷污； 因他们的食物只为自己的口腹， 必不奉入耶和华的殿。
5 What will ye do in the day of the appointed season, and in the day of the feast of the LORD?
在大会的日子， 到耶和华的节期，你们怎样行呢？
6 For, lo, they are gone away from destruction, yet Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them; their precious treasures of silver, nettles shall possess them, thorns shall be in their tents.
看哪，他们逃避灾难； 埃及人必收殓他们的尸首， 摩弗人必葬埋他们的骸骨。 他们用银子做的美物上必长蒺藜； 他们的帐棚中必生荆棘。
7 The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come, Israel shall know it. The prophet is a fool, the man of the spirit is mad! For the multitude of thine iniquity, the enmity is great.
以色列人必知道降罚的日子临近， 报应的时候来到。 民说：作先知的是愚昧； 受灵感的是狂妄， 皆因他们多多作孽，大怀怨恨。
8 Ephraim is a watchman with my God; as for the prophet, a fowler's snare is in all his ways, and enmity in the house of his God.
以法莲曾作我 神守望的； 至于先知，在他一切的道上作为捕鸟人的网罗， 在他 神的家中怀怨恨。
9 They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their iniquity, He will punish their sins.
以法莲深深地败坏， 如在基比亚的日子一样。 耶和华必记念他们的罪孽， 追讨他们的罪恶。
10 I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness, I saw your fathers as the first-ripe in the fig-tree at her first season; but so soon as they came to Baal-peor, they separated themselves unto the shameful thing, and became detestable like that which they loved.
主说：我遇见以色列如葡萄在旷野； 我看见你们的列祖如无花果树上春季初熟的果子。 他们却来到巴力·毗珥专拜那可羞耻的， 就成为可憎恶的， 与他们所爱的一样。
11 As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird; there shall be no birth, and none with child, and no conception.
至于以法莲人，他们的荣耀必如鸟飞去， 必不生产，不怀胎，不成孕。
12 Yea, though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there be not a man left; yea, woe also to them when I depart from them!
纵然养大儿女， 我却必使他们丧子，甚至不留一个。 我离弃他们，他们就有祸了。
13 Ephraim, like as I have seen Tyre, is planted in a pleasant place; but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the slayer.
我看以法莲如泰尔栽于美地。 以法莲却要将自己的儿女带出来， 交与行杀戮的人。
14 Give them, O LORD, whatsoever Thou wilt give; give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.
耶和华啊，求你加给他们— 加什么呢？ 要使他们胎坠乳干。
15 All their wickedness is in Gilgal, for there I hated them; because of the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of My house; I will love them no more, all their princes are rebellious.
耶和华说：他们一切的恶事都在吉甲； 我在那里憎恶他们。 因他们所行的恶， 我必从我地上赶出他们去， 不再怜爱他们； 他们的首领都是悖逆的。
16 Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit; yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay the beloved fruit of their womb.
以法莲受责罚， 根本枯干，必不能结果， 即或生产， 我必杀他们所生的爱子。
17 My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto Him; and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
我的 神必弃绝他们， 因为他们不听从他； 他们也必飘流在列国中。
