< Hosea 5 >

1 Hear ye this, O priests; and hearken, ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for judgment [is] towards you, because 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 the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I [have been] a rebuker 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 know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, thou art guilty of lewdness, [and] 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 They will not frame their doings to turn to their God: for the spirit of lewdness [is] in the midst of them, and they have not known 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 And the pride of Israel doth testify to his face: therefore shall Israel and Ephraim fall in their iniquity; Judah also shall fall 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6 They shall go with their flocks and with their herds to seek the LORD; but they shall not find [him]; he hath withdrawn himself from them.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 a month 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 cornet in Gibeah, [and] the trumpet in Ramah: cry aloud [at] Beth-aven, after 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 have I made 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 were like them that remove the bound: [therefore] 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 Ephraim [is] oppressed [and] broken in judgment, because he willingly walked after the commandment.
以法莲因乐从人的命令, 就受欺压,被审判压碎。
12 Therefore [will] I [be] to 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 When Ephraim saw his sickness, and Judah [saw] his wound, then Ephraim went to the Assyrian, and sent to king Jareb: yet he could not heal you, nor 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] to 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 none shall rescue [him].
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 offense, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
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。
