不要去伯特利尋求我,

不要去吉甲,

也不要過去別是巴。

因為吉甲必被擄掠,

伯特利必化為烏有。”

尋求耶和華,就必存活,

免得他像火在約瑟家猛烈蔓延,吞滅他們;

沒有人能把伯特利的火撲滅。

他們使公正變為苦堇,

把公義棄於地上。

    do not seek Bethel,
do not go to Gilgal,(A)
    do not journey to Beersheba.(B)
For Gilgal will surely go into exile,
    and Bethel will be reduced to nothing.[a](C)
Seek(D) the Lord and live,(E)
    or he will sweep through the tribes of Joseph like a fire;(F)
it will devour them,
    and Bethel(G) will have no one to quench it.(H)

There are those who turn justice into bitterness(I)
    and cast righteousness(J) to the ground.(K)
