Hosea 9
1 Do not rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations; for you were unfaithful to your God. You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing 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 winepress won't feed them, and the new wine will fail her.
谷场和酒榨都不够以色列人使用； 新酒也必缺乏。
3 They won't dwell in Jehovah's land; but Ephraim will return to Egypt, and they will 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 won't pour out wine offerings to Jehovah, neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat of it will be polluted; for their bread will be for their appetite. It will not come into the house of Jehovah.
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 you do in the day of solemn assembly, and in the day of the feast of Jehovah?
在大会的日子， 到耶和华的节期，你们怎样行呢？
6 For, look, they have gone away from destruction. Egypt will gather them up. Memphis will bury them. Nettles will possess their pleasant things of silver. Thorns will 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 have come. The days of reckoning have come. Let Israel know. The prophet is a fool, and the man of the spirit is mad, because of the abundance of your sins, and because your hostility 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 A prophet watches over Ephraim with my God. A fowler's snare is on all of his paths, and hostility 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 them for 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 its first season; but they came to Baal Peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing, and became abominable 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 will fly away like a bird. There will be no birth, 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 Though they bring up their children, yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left. Indeed, 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 I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place; but Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer.
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? Jehovah what will you 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 deeds I will drive them out of my house. I will love them no more. All their rulers are rebels.
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 struck. Their root has dried up. They will bear no fruit. Even though they bring forth, yet I will kill the beloved ones 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 listen to him; and they will 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。
