何西阿書 14
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
悔改帶來祝福
14 以色列啊，
你被自己的罪惡絆倒了，
歸向你的上帝耶和華吧！
2 你要歸向耶和華，
向祂懺悔說：
「求你赦免我們的罪，
施恩悅納我們，
好叫我們以讚美為祭獻給你！
3 我們不再向亞述求救，
不再依靠戰馬，
也不再稱自己所造的神像為我們的上帝。
耶和華啊，只有在你那裡，
孤兒才能得到憐憫。」
4 耶和華說：
「我要醫治他們的叛道，
心甘情願地愛他們，
因為我的怒氣已經轉離他們。
5 我要像甘露一樣滋潤以色列，
使他綻放如百合花，
扎根如黎巴嫩的香柏樹。
6 他要長出嫩枝，
他要像橄欖樹一樣榮美，
如黎巴嫩的香柏樹一般芳香。
7 他要歸回，住在我的蔭下。
他要茂盛如五穀，
榮美如葡萄樹，
聲名遠揚如黎巴嫩的美酒。
8 「以法蓮啊，你要遠離偶像。
我應允你的禱告，看顧你。
我像一棵青翠的松樹，
你的果實都來自於我。」
9 讓那些智者明白這一切，
讓那些明哲瞭解這一切。
因為耶和華的道是正道，
義人要行走在上面，
罪人卻在上面跌倒。
Hoshea 14
Orthodox Jewish Bible
14 1 (2) O Yisroel, return unto Hashem Eloheicha; for thy downfall hast been thine avon (iniquity).
2 (3) Take devarim (words) with you, and turn to Hashem; say unto Him, Take away avon (iniquity), and receive us graciously that we may render the sacrifices of our lips.[MJ 13:15]
3 (4) Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride upon susim; neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are Eloheinu; for in Thee the yatom (orphan) findeth compassion.
4 (5) I will heal their meshuvah (backsliding); I will love them freely; for Mine anger is turned away from him.
5 (6) I will be as the tal (dew) unto Yisroel: he shall blossom as the lily, and strike root as Levanon.
6 (7) His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the zayit (olive tree), and his hod (splendor) as Levanon.
7 (8) They that dwell under his tzel (shade) shall return; they shall revive as the dagan, and grow as the gefen; the remembrance thereof shall be as the yayin of Levanon.
8 (9) Ephrayim shall say, What have I to do any more with atzabim? It is I who answer and look after him; I am like an evergreen cypress. From Me is thy p’ri found.
9 (10) Who is chacham, and he shall have binah of these things? Prudent, and he shall know them? For the Darkhei Hashem are right, and the tzaddikim shall walk in them; but the poshe’im (transgressors) shall fall therein.
