¹离弃　神的必将被掳

¹`Rejoice not, O Israel, be not joyful like the peoples, For thou hast gone a-whoring from thy God, Thou hast loved a gift near all floors of corn.

²打谷场和榨酒池不能喂养他们，新酒也必使他们失望。

²Floor and wine-press do not delight them, And new wine doth fail in her,

³他们必不得住在耶和华之地；以法莲要回到埃及去，要在亚述吃不洁之物。

³They do not abide in the land of Jehovah, And turned back hath Ephraim [to] Egypt, And in Asshur an unclean thing they eat.

⁴他们必不得向耶和华奠酒，他们的祭物也不能使他喜悦。他们的饼好像丧家的饼，凡吃这饼的，都必被玷污；因为他们的饼只可自己吃，不可带进耶和华的殿。

⁴They pour not out wine to Jehovah, Nor are they sweet to Him, Their sacrifices [are] as bread of mourners to them, All eating it are unclean: For their bread [is] for themselves, It doth not come into the house of Jehovah.

⁵那么，在规定集会的日子和耶和华节期的时候，你们能作什么？

⁵What do ye at the day appointed? And at the day of Jehovah`s festival?

⁶看哪！他们逃到亚述去，埃及要收殓他们，摩弗要埋葬他们。他们珍贵的银器必为蒺藜所占有，他们的帐棚必长满荆棘。

⁶For, lo, they have gone because of destruction, Egypt gathereth them, Moph burieth them, The desirable things of their silver, Nettles possess them — a thorn [is] in their tents.

⁷惩罚的日子临近，报应的时候来到，以色列必定知道，因着你们众多的罪孽和深仇大恨，先知被看为愚昧，受灵感动的人被当作疯子。

⁷Come in have the days of inspection, Come in have the days of recompence, Israel doth know! a fool [is] the prophet, Mad [is] the man of the Spirit, Because of the abundance of thine iniquity, And great [is] the hatred.

⁸先知与　神一同作以法莲的守望者，在他所行的一切路上，都满有捕鸟人的网罗，在他　神的家中只有仇恨。

⁸Ephraim is looking [away] from My God, The prophet! a snare of a fowler [is] over all his ways, Hatred [is] in the house of his God.

⁹以法莲深深败坏，如同在基比亚的日子一般。　神必记得他们的罪孽，惩罚他们的罪恶。

⁹They have gone deep — have done corruptly, As [in] the days of Gibeah, He doth remember their iniquity, He doth inspect their sins.

¹⁰以色列犯罪及其后果“我遇见以色列，好像在旷野里遇见葡萄。我看见你们的列祖，像看见无花果树初熟的果子。他们却来到巴力．毗珥，专作羞耻的事，成为可憎恶的，像他们所爱的偶像一样。

¹⁰As grapes in a wilderness I found Israel, As the first-fruit in a fig-tree, at its beginning, I have seen your fathers, They — they have gone in [to] Baal-Peor, And are separated to a shameful thing, And are become abominable like their love.

¹¹至于以法莲，他们的荣耀必如鸟儿飞逝；没有生育，没有怀胎，没有成孕。

¹¹Ephraim [is] as a fowl, Fly away doth their honour, without birth, And without womb, and without conception.

¹²即使他们把儿女养大，我也必使他们丧子，一个不留。我离弃他们的时候，他们就有祸了。”

¹²For though they nourish their sons, I have made them childless — without man, Surely also, wo to them, when I turn aside from them.

¹³在我看来，以法莲的儿女注定被当作猎物；以法莲要把自己的儿女带出来，交给施行杀戮的人。

¹³Ephraim! when I have looked to the rock, Is planted in comeliness, And Ephraim [is] to bring out unto a slayer his sons.

¹⁴耶和华啊，求你赐给他们；你要赐给他们什么呢？求你使他们坠胎小产，乳房萎缩。

¹⁴Give to them, Jehovah — what dost Thou give? Give to them miscarrying womb, and dry breasts.

¹⁵“他们的一切罪恶都在吉甲，我在那里憎恨他们，因他们的恶行，我要把他们从我的家里赶出来；我不再爱他们，他们的领袖都是叛徒。

¹⁵All their evil [is] in Gilgal, Surely there I have hated them, Because of the evil of their doings, Out of My house I do drive them, I add not to love them, all their heads [are] apostates.

¹⁶以法莲被击打，他们的根枯干了，必不能再结果子。即使他们生产，我必杀死他们所生的爱子。”

¹⁶Ephraim hath been smitten, Their root hath dried up, fruit they yield not, Yea, though they bring forth, I have put to death the desired of their womb.

¹⁷我的　神必弃绝他们，因为他们不听从他；他们必在列国中飘流。

¹⁷Reject them doth my God, Because they have not hearkened to Him, And they are wanderers among nations!
