Hosea 4 · King James Version
英王钦定本圣经 · 简体 · 上帝版 · 共 19 节
以色列人哪，你们当听 耶和华的话。 耶和华与这地的居民争辩，因这地上无诚实，无良善，无人认识 上帝。
Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because [there is] no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
但起假誓，说谎，杀害，偷盗，奸淫，行强暴，血流不断。
By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
因此，这地悲哀，其上的民丶田野的兽丶空中的鸟必都衰微，海中的鱼也必消灭。
Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
然而，人都不必争辩，也不必指责别人；因为你的民与跟祭司争辩的人一样。
Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people [are] as they that strive with the priest.
所以你这祭司必日间跌倒；先知也必夜间与你一同跌倒；我必灭绝你的母亲。
Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
我的民因无知识而灭亡。你弃掉知识，我也必弃掉你，使你不再给我作祭司。你既忘了你 上帝的律法，我也必忘记你的儿女。
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
祭司越发增多，就越发得罪我；因此我必使他们的荣耀变为羞辱。
As they were increased, so they sinned against me: [therefore] will I change their glory into shame.
他们吃尽我民的赎罪祭，满心愿意我民犯罪。
They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
将来民如何，祭司也必如何；我必因他们所行的惩罚他们，照他们所作的报应他们。
And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
他们吃，却不得饱；行淫，而不得立後；因为他们离弃 耶和华，不遵他的命。
For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
奸淫和酒，并新酒，夺去人的心。
Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
我的民求问木偶，以为木杖能指示他们；因为他们淫乱的灵使他们走差了，他们就行淫离弃 上帝，不守约束，
My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused [them] to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
在各山顶，各高冈的橡树丶杨树丶榆树之下，献祭烧香，因为树影美好；所以，你们的女儿必淫乱，你们的配偶必奸淫。
They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof [is] good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
你们的女儿淫乱，你们的配偶奸淫，我却不惩罚她们；因为你们自己离群与众淫妇同居，与娼妓一同献祭。因此这无知的民必致跌倒。
I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people [that] doth not understand shall fall.
以色列啊，你虽然行淫，犹大却不可犯罪。不要往吉甲去，不要上到伯．亚文，也不要指着永生的 耶和华起誓。
Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, [yet] let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Beth-aven, nor swear, The LORD liveth.
以色列背道，犹如背离的母牛；现在 耶和华要放他们，如同放绵羊羔在宽阔之地。
For Israel slideth back as a backsliding heifer: now the LORD will feed them as a lamb in a large place.
以法莲亲近偶像，任凭她吧。
Ephraim [is] joined to idols: let him alone.
他们所喝的都是酸的；他们时常行淫；她们的官长最爱羞耻的事，任凭他们吧。
Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredom continually: her rulers [with] shame do love, Give ye.
风把他们裹在翅膀里；他们因所献的祭必致蒙羞。
The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
