< Hosea 9 >

1 May not you rejoice O Israel - to rejoicing like the peoples for you have prostituted yourself from with God your you have loved [the] hire of a prostitute on all threshing floors of grain.
以色列! 你不要高興,不要像異民一樣狂歡,因為你行了淫,離棄了你的天主,在所有的禾場上只是喜歡淫資。
2 Threshing floor and wine-press not it will feed them and new wine it will fail it.
禾場與榨酒也不再認識他們,新酒也要拒絕他們。
3 Not they will remain in [the] land of Yahweh and he will return Ephraim Egypt and in Assyria unclean [food] they will eat.
他們必不能在上主的地方居住;厄弗辣因必要回到埃及,且要在亞述吃不潔之物。
4 Not they will pour out to Yahweh - wine and not they will be pleasing to him sacrifices their [will be] like bread of mourning to them all [those who] eat it they will make themselves unclean for bread their [will be] for self their not it will go [the] house of Yahweh.
他們不能向上主奠洒,也不能再向衪奉獻的祭品;他們的餅好似喪餅,凡吃這餅的,必受玷污;因為他們的餅只可為他們自用,不能帶進上主殿內。
5 What? will you do to [the] day of an appointed feast and to [the] day of [the] festival of Yahweh.
那麼你們在盛會之日,在上主火節日,可作什麼呢﹖
6 For there! they have gone from [the] devastation Egypt it will gather them Memphis it will bury them treasure of silver their nettle[s] it will take possession of them thorn[s] [will be] in tents their.
因為,看,他們由毀滅裏逃走,埃及要收集他們,摩夫要埋葬他們;他們的尊貴的銀器將為蒺藜所承受,他們的帳幕將被荊棘所佔有。
7 They have come - [the] days of punishment they have come [the] days of retribution let them know Israel [is] a fool the prophet [is] mad [the] person of the spirit on [the] greatness of iniquity your and great animosity.
懲罰的日子來了,報復的日子到了,以色列要喊說:先知是愚人,受靈感的人是瘋子! 是,這是因為你的過犯繁多,因為你的罪惡重大。
8 [was] a watchman Ephraim with God my a prophet a trap of a fowler [is] on all ways his animosity [is] in [the] house of God his.
厄弗辣因窺伺先知的帳幕,在他的路上處處佈下了羅網,在自己天主的殿內只敵視。
9 They have made deep they have dealt corruptly like [the] days of Gibeah he will remember iniquity their he will punish sins their.
他們窮凶已到了極點,就如在基貝亞的時日一樣;上主必不忘你們的罪孽,必要懲罰他們的邪惡。
10 Like grapes in the wilderness I found Israel like early fig[s] on a fig tree at beginning its I saw ancestors your they they came Baal Peor and they devoted themselves to shame and they were detestable things as loved they.
我發現了以色列,就如曠野中發現葡萄;看見你們的祖先,就如在無花果樹上看見初熱的果實;但當他們來到了巴耳培敖爾時,便將自己獻給了可憎之物,使自己也成了可憎惡的,如他們所善愛的邪神一樣。
11 Ephraim like bird it will fly away glory their from child bearing and from womb and from conception.
至於厄弗辣因,因他們的光榮,就如飛鳥飛去,必不生產,不懷胎,不妊娠。
12 That except they will bring up children their and I will bereave them from everyone for also woe! to them when depart I from them.
既使他們把自己的子女養大,我也必使他們喪亡,一個不留;幾時我捨棄他們,他們才是有禍的。
13 Ephraim just as I have seen to Tyre [is] planted in pastureland and Ephraim to bring out to [one who] kills children his.
厄弗辣因,一如我所見的,必使自己的子女成為獵物;厄弗辣因必把自己的子女交出屠殺。
14 Give to them O Yahweh what? will you give give to them a womb [which] miscarry and breasts [which] dry up.
上主,求你賜給他們....賜給他們什麼呢﹖要使他們胎荒,乳乾!
15 All wickedness their [is] in Gilgal for there I hated them on [the] wickedness of deeds their from house my I will drive out them not I will repeat to love them all leaders their [are] rebellious.
他們所行的一切惡事,全在基耳加耳開始,因此,在那裏我就恨了他們;為了他們的惡行,我必將他們從我父的家趕出去;我不再喜愛他們,他們的首領全是叛徒
16 He has been struck Ephraim root their it has dried up fruit (not *Q(K)*) they will produce! also if they [masc] will give birth! and I will put to death [the] precious things of [masc] womb their.
厄弗辣因受了打擊,根子也乾枯了,再不能結果實;既使他們生了孩子,我也必將他們的寧馨兒殺死。
17 He will reject them God my for not they have listened to him so they may be wanderers among the nations.
我的天主必要拋棄他們,因為他們沒有聽從衪;他們必要在各民族中飄流。
