何西阿书 11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华对以色列的爱
11 耶和华说:
“以色列年幼时,我就爱他,
视他为儿子,把他从埃及召出来。
2 可是,我越召唤他们,他们就跑得越远,
给巴力献祭,向偶像烧香。
3 是我教以法莲学步,张开双臂抱他们,
他们却不知道是我医治他们。
4 我用慈绳爱索牵引他们,
解开他们所负的重轭,
弯腰喂养他们。
5 “他们要返回埃及,
亚述要统治他们,
因为他们不肯归向我。
6 刀剑之灾要临到他们的城邑,
毁坏他们的城门,将他们吞噬,
因为他们倚仗自己的计谋。
7 我的子民执意离我而去,
他们虽然求告至高的我,
我也不会拯救他们。
8 以法莲啊,我怎能舍弃你?
以色列啊,我怎能弃绝你?
我怎能使你的下场如押玛?
我怎能对待你如对待洗扁?
我的心意改变,我满怀怜爱。
9 我不再发烈怒,
也不再毁灭以法莲。
因为我是上帝,不是世人,
是住在你们中间的圣者,
我必不带着烈怒来临。
10 “以色列子民必跟随耶和华,
祂要像狮子一样吼叫。
祂吼叫的时候,
他们要战战兢兢地从西方来。
11 他们必战战兢兢地来,
就像从埃及赶来的鸟儿,
像从亚述飞来的鸽子。
我要带他们返回家园。
这是耶和华说的。”
对以色列和犹大的指控
12 耶和华说:
“以法莲用谎话包围我,
以色列家用诡诈环绕我;
犹大依然背离圣洁、信实的上帝[a]。

耶和華對以色列的愛
11 耶和華說:
「以色列年幼時,我就愛他,
視他為兒子,把他從埃及召出來。

給巴力獻祭,向偶像燒香。

就像從埃及趕來的鳥兒,
像從亞述飛來的鴿子。
我要帶他們返回家園。
這是耶和華說的。」
對以色列和猶大的指控

「以法蓮用謊話包圍我,

Hosea 11
New International Version
God’s Love for Israel
11 “When Israel was a child,(A) I loved(B) him,
and out of Egypt I called my son.(C)
2 But the more they were called,
the more they went away from me.[a](D)
They sacrificed to the Baals(E)
and they burned incense to images.(F)
3 It was I who taught Ephraim to walk,
taking them by the arms;(G)
but they did not realize
it was I who healed(H) them.
4 I led them with cords of human kindness,
with ties of love.(I)
To them I was like one who lifts
a little child to the cheek,
and I bent down to feed(J) them.(K)
5 “Will they not return to Egypt(L)
and will not Assyria(M) rule over them
because they refuse to repent?(N)
6 A sword(O) will flash in their cities;
it will devour(P) their false prophets
and put an end to their plans.
7 My people are determined to turn(Q) from me.(R)
Even though they call me God Most High,
I will by no means exalt them.
8 “How can I give you up,(S) Ephraim?(T)
How can I hand you over, Israel?
How can I treat you like Admah?
How can I make you like Zeboyim?(U)
My heart is changed within me;
all my compassion(V) is aroused.(W)
9 I will not carry out my fierce anger,(X)
nor will I devastate(Y) Ephraim again.
For I am God, and not a man(Z)—
the Holy One(AA) among you.
I will not come against their cities.
10 They will follow the Lord;
he will roar(AB) like a lion.(AC)
When he roars,
his children will come trembling(AD) from the west.(AE)
11 They will come from Egypt,
trembling like sparrows,
from Assyria,(AF) fluttering like doves.(AG)
I will settle them in their homes,”(AH)
declares the Lord.

Hosea 11
King James Version
11 When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
2 As they called them, so they went from them: they sacrificed unto Baalim, and burned incense to graven images.
3 I taught Ephraim also to go, taking them by their arms; but they knew not that I healed them.
4 I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat unto them.
5 He shall not return into the land of Egypt, and the Assyrian shall be his king, because they refused to return.
6 And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.
7 And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.
8 How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned within me, my repentings are kindled together.
9 I will not execute the fierceness of mine anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of thee: and I will not enter into the city.
10 They shall walk after the Lord: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.
11 They shall tremble as a bird out of Egypt, and as a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will place them in their houses, saith the Lord.
12 Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: but Judah yet ruleth with God, and is faithful with the saints.
