何西阿书 14
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
劝其悔罪归主
14 以色列啊,你要归向耶和华你的神!你是因自己的罪孽跌倒了。 2 当归向耶和华,用言语祷告他说:“求你除净罪孽,悦纳善行,这样,我们就把嘴唇的祭代替牛犊献上。 3 我们不向亚述求救,不骑埃及的马,也不再对我们手所造的说‘你是我们的神’,因为孤儿在你耶和华那里得蒙怜悯。”
许复施恩眷爱
4 “我必医治他们背道的病,甘心爱他们,因为我的怒气向他们转消。 5 我必向以色列如甘露,他必如百合花开放,如黎巴嫩的树木扎根。 6 他的枝条必延长,他的荣华如橄榄树,他的香气如黎巴嫩的香柏树。 7 曾住在他荫下的必归回,发旺如五谷,开花如葡萄树,他的香气如黎巴嫩的酒。 8 以法莲必说:‘我与偶像还有什么关涉呢?’我耶和华回答他,也必顾念他。我如青翠的松树,你的果子从我而得。”
9 谁是智慧人,可以明白这些事;谁是通达人,可以知道这一切。因为耶和华的道是正直的,义人必在其中行走,罪人却在其上跌倒。
Hosea 14
King James Version
14 O israel, return unto the Lord thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.
2 Take with you words, and turn to the Lord: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.
3 Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, Ye are our gods: for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.
4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.
5 I will be as the dew unto Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
6 His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
7 They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
8 Ephraim shall say, What have I to do any more with idols? I have heard him, and observed him: I am like a green fir tree. From me is thy fruit found.
9 Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
Hosea 14
New King James Version
Israel Restored at Last
14 O Israel, (A)return to the Lord your God,
For you have stumbled because of your iniquity;
2 Take words with you,
And return to the Lord.
Say to Him,
“Take away all iniquity;
Receive us graciously,
For we will offer the (B)sacrifices[a] of our lips.
3 Assyria shall (C)not save us,
(D)We will not ride on horses,
Nor will we say anymore to the work of our hands, ‘You are our gods.’
(E)For in You the fatherless finds mercy.”
4 “I will heal their (F)backsliding,
I will (G)love them freely,
For My anger has turned away from him.
5 I will be like the (H)dew to Israel;
He shall [b]grow like the lily,
And [c]lengthen his roots like Lebanon.
6 His branches shall [d]spread;
(I)His beauty shall be like an olive tree,
And (J)his fragrance like Lebanon.
7 (K)Those who dwell under his shadow shall return;
They shall be revived like grain,
And [e]grow like a vine.
Their [f]scent shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 “Ephraim shall say, ‘What have I to do anymore with idols?’
I have heard and observed him.
I am like a green cypress tree;
(L)Your fruit is found in Me.”
9 Who is wise?
Let him understand these things.
Who is prudent?
Let him know them.
For (M)the ways of the Lord are right;
The righteous walk in them,
But transgressors stumble in them.

Repentance to Bring Blessing
14 [a]Return,(A) Israel, to the Lord your God.
Your sins(B) have been your downfall!(C)
2 Take words with you
and return to the Lord.
Say to him:
“Forgive(D) all our sins
and receive us graciously,(E)
that we may offer the fruit of our lips.[b](F)
3 Assyria cannot save us;(G)

I will answer him and care for him.
I am like a flourishing juniper;(AA)
your fruitfulness comes from me.”
