Hosea

Chapter 1

1 THE word of the LORD that came to Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jereboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

2 The beginning of the word of the LORD that came to Hosea: The LORD said to Hosea, Go, take to yourself a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms; for the land will commit great whoredom in departing from the LORD.

3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; who conceived and bore him a son.

4 And the LORD said to him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.

5 And it shall come to pass on that day, I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.

6 And she conceived again and bore a daughter. And the LORD said to him, Call her name La-ethrakhmath (not beloved); for I will no more have mercy upon the house of Israel; and I will utterly cause them to be carried away captive.

7 But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and I will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow nor by sword nor by battle nor by horses nor by horsemen.

8 Now when she had weaned La-ethrakhmath, she conceived again and bore a son.

9 Then the LORD said to me, Call his name La-ammi (not my people); for you are not my people and I will not be your God.

10 Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass that in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people; there it shall be said to them, You are the sons of the living God.

11 Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and they shall appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land; for great is the day of Jezreel.

第1章

1 猶大國烏西亞、約担、亞哈士、希西家相繼在位、及以色列國約轄子耶羅破暗在位時、耶和華諭別哩子何西、

2 耶和華首告何西曰、斯土之民、狥其私欲、違逆乎我、爾娶淫婦而生子、人必被其子以惡名、

3 何西娶滴拉音女坷滅、懷妊生子。

4 耶和華曰、可命名耶斯烈、昔耶戶殺人於耶斯烈、我將報之於俄頃、使以色列族國祚不長、

5 當日在耶斯烈谷、我將折以色列族之弓、

6 婦再懷妊、生女、主曰、可命名囉路哈馬(囉路哈馬譯卽不加矜憫)、蓋我必棄以色列家、不加矜憫、

7 我將矜憫猶大家、非以弓刃戰鬬車騎救援、乃以我能拯之、

8 婦爲其女斷乳、再妊生子、

9 主曰、可命名囉亞米(囉亞米譯卽非我民)、蓋爾曹非我民、我非爾上帝、

10 越至於後、以色列族其數必如海沙、不能斗量籌算也、今我語人曰、爾非我民、異日將稱爲永生上帝衆子、

11 猶大族與以色列族、將合一處、簡立一長、自異邦而歸、耶斯烈受祜之日、稱其日爲大日。
