< Hosea 1 >

1 [the] word of Yahweh - which it came to Hosea [the] son of Beeri in [the] days of Uzziah Jotham Ahaz Hezekiah [the] kings of Judah and in [the] days of Jeroboam [the] son of Joash [the] king of Israel.
當烏西雅、約坦、亞哈斯、希西家作猶大王,約阿施的兒子耶羅波安作以色列王的時候,耶和華的話臨到備利的兒子何西阿。
2 [the] beginning [when] he spoke Yahweh by Hosea. And he said Yahweh to Hosea go take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of prostitution for continually it prostitutes itself the land from after Yahweh.
耶和華初次與何西阿說話,對他說:「你去娶淫婦為妻,也收那從淫亂所生的兒女;因為這地大行淫亂,離棄耶和華。」
3 And he went and he took Gomer [the] daughter of Diblaim and she conceived and she bore to him a son.
於是,何西阿去娶了滴拉音的女兒歌篾。這婦人懷孕,給他生了一個兒子。
4 And he said Yahweh to him call name his Jezreel for yet a little and I will visit [the] blood of Jezreel on [the] house of Jehu and I will put an end to [the] kingdom of [the] house of Israel.
耶和華對何西阿說:「給他起名叫耶斯列;因為再過片時,我必討耶戶家在耶斯列殺人流血的罪,也必使以色列家的國滅絕。
5 And it will be on the day that and I will break [the] bow of Israel in [the] valley of Jezreel.
到那日,我必在耶斯列平原折斷以色列的弓。」
6 And she conceived again and she bore a daughter and he said to him call name her Lo-Ruhamah for not I will repeat again I will have compassion on [the] house of Israel that certainly I will forgive them.
歌篾又懷孕生了一個女兒,耶和華對何西阿說:「給她起名叫羅‧路哈瑪;因為我必不再憐憫以色列家,決不赦免他們。
7 And [the] house of Judah I will have compassion on and I will save them by Yahweh God their and not I will save them by bow and by sword and by battle by horses and by horsemen.
我卻要憐憫猶大家,使他們靠耶和華-他們的上帝得救,不使他們靠弓、刀、爭戰、馬匹,與馬兵得救。」
8 And she weaned Lo-Ruhamah and she conceived and she bore a son.
歌篾給羅‧路哈瑪斷奶以後,又懷孕生了一個兒子。
9 And he said call name his Lo-Ammi for you not [are] people my and I not I will belong to you.
耶和華說:「給他起名叫羅‧阿米;因為你們不作我的子民,我也不作你們的上帝。」
10 And it will be [the] number of [the] people of Israel like [the] sand of the sea which not it will be measured and not it will be counted and it will be in [the] place where it was said to them not [are] people my you it will be said to them children of [the] God living.
然而,以色列的人數必如海沙,不可量,不可數。從前在甚麼地方對他們說「你們不是我的子民」,將來在那裏必對他們說「你們是永生上帝的兒子」。
11 And they will be gathered [the] people of Judah and [the] people of Israel together and they will appoint for themselves a chief one and they will go up from the land for [will be] great [the] day of Jezreel.
猶大人和以色列人必一同聚集,為自己立一個首領,從這地上去,因為耶斯列的日子必為大日。
