Hosea 10
1 Israel is a luxuriant vine that produces his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
以色列是茂盛的葡萄树，结果繁多。 果子越多，就越增添祭坛； 地土越肥美，就越造美丽的柱像。
2 Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
他们心怀二意， 现今要定为有罪。 耶和华必拆毁他们的祭坛， 毁坏他们的柱像。
3 Surely now they will say, “We have no king; for we don’t fear the LORD; and the king, what can he do for us?”
他们必说：我们没有王， 因为我们不敬畏耶和华。 王能为我们做什么呢？
4 They make promises, swearing falsely in making covenants. Therefore judgement springs up like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field.
他们为立约说谎言，起假誓； 因此，灾罚如苦菜滋生在田间的犁沟中。
5 The inhabitants of Samaria will be in terror for the calves of Beth Aven, for its people will mourn over it, along with its priests who rejoiced over it, for its glory, because it has departed from it.
撒马利亚的居民必因伯·亚文的牛犊惊恐； 崇拜牛犊的民和喜爱牛犊的祭司 都必因荣耀离开它，为它悲哀。
6 It also will be carried to Assyria for a present to a great king. Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.
人必将牛犊带到亚述当作礼物， 献给耶雷布王。 以法莲必蒙羞； 以色列必因自己的计谋惭愧。
7 Samaria and her king float away like a twig on the water.
至于撒马利亚，她的王必灭没， 如水面的沫子一样。
8 The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed. The thorn and the thistle will come up on their altars. They will tell the mountains, “Cover us!” and the hills, “Fall on us!”
伯·亚文的邱坛— 就是以色列取罪的地方必被毁灭； 荆棘和蒺藜必长在他们的祭坛上。 他们必对大山说：遮盖我们！ 对小山说：倒在我们身上！
9 “Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah. There they remained. The battle against the children of iniquity doesn’t overtake them in Gibeah.
以色列啊， 你从基比亚的日子以来时常犯罪。 你们的先人曾站在那里， 现今住基比亚的人 以为攻击罪孽之辈的战事临不到自己。
10 When it is my desire, I will chastise them; and the nations will be gathered against them when they are bound to their two transgressions.
我必随意惩罚他们。 他们为两样的罪所缠； 列邦的民必聚集攻击他们。
11 Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh, so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will plough. Jacob will break his clods.
以法莲是驯良的母牛犊，喜爱踹谷， 我却将轭加在它肥美的颈项上， 我要使以法莲拉套。 犹大必耕田； 雅各必耙地。
12 Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground, for it is time to seek the LORD, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
你们要为自己栽种公义， 就能收割慈爱。 现今正是寻求耶和华的时候； 你们要开垦荒地，等他临到， 使公义如雨降在你们身上。
13 You have ploughed wickedness. You have reaped iniquity. You have eaten the fruit of lies, for you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.
你们耕种的是奸恶， 收割的是罪孽， 吃的是谎话的果子。 因你倚靠自己的行为， 仰赖勇士众多，
14 Therefore a battle roar will arise amongst your people, and all your fortresses will be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth Arbel in the day of battle. The mother was dashed in pieces with her children.
所以在这民中必有哄嚷之声， 你一切的保障必被拆毁， 就如沙勒幔在争战的日子拆毁伯·亚比勒， 将其中的母子一同摔死。
15 So Bethel will do to you because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel will be destroyed.
因他们的大恶， 伯特利必使你们遭遇如此。 到了黎明，以色列的王必全然灭绝。
