何西阿书 第 6 章

1来吧，我们归向耶和华！ 他撕裂我们，也必医治； 他打伤我们，也必缠裹。

1Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.

2过两天他必使我们苏醒， 第三天他必使我们兴起， 我们就在他面前得以存活。

2After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight.

3我们务要认识耶和华， 竭力追求认识他。 他出现确如晨光； 他必临到我们像甘雨， 像滋润田地的春雨。

3Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.

4主说：以法莲哪，我可向你怎样行呢？ 犹大啊，我可向你怎样做呢？ 因为你们的良善如同早晨的云雾， 又如速散的甘露。

4O Ephraim, what shall I do unto thee? O Judah, what shall I do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.

5因此，我借先知砍伐他们， 以我口中的话杀戮他们； 我施行的审判如光发出。

5Therefore have I hewed them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.

6我喜爱良善，不喜爱祭祀； 喜爱认识神，胜于燔祭。

6For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.

7他们却如亚当背约， 在境内向我行事诡诈。

7But they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.

8基列是作孽之人的城， 被血沾染。

8Gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood.

9强盗成群，怎样埋伏杀人， 祭司结党，也照样在示剑的路上杀戮， 行了邪恶。

9And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.

10在以色列家，我见了可憎的事； 在以法莲那里有淫行， 以色列被玷污。

10I have seen an horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the whoredom of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.

11犹大啊，我使被掳之民归回的时候， 必有为你所命定的收场。

11Also, O Judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when I returned the captivity of my people.
