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)
we will not mount warhorses.(H)
We will never again say ‘Our gods’(I)
to what our own hands have made,(J)
for in you the fatherless(K) find compassion.”
4 “I will heal(L) their waywardness(M)
and love them freely,(N)
for my anger has turned away(O) from them.
5 I will be like the dew(P) to Israel;
he will blossom like a lily.(Q)
Like a cedar of Lebanon(R)
he will send down his roots;(S)
6 his young shoots will grow.
His splendor will be like an olive tree,(T)
his fragrance like a cedar of Lebanon.(U)
7 People will dwell again in his shade;(V)
they will flourish like the grain,
they will blossom(W) like the vine—
Israel’s fame will be like the wine(X) of Lebanon.(Y)
8 Ephraim, what more have I[c] to do with idols?(Z)
I will answer him and care for him.
I am like a flourishing juniper;(AA)
your fruitfulness comes from me.”

14 Hoki mai, e Iharaira, ki a Ihowa, ki tou Atua: kua taka hoki koe i tou he.
2 Tikina etahi kupu ma koutou, tahuri mai hoki ki a Ihowa: mea atu ki a ia, Whakakahoretia katoatia atu te he, kia manako mai ki te mea pai: a ka hoatu e matou ano he puru te whakahere, ara o matou ngutu.
3 E kore matou e ora i a Ahuru; e kore matou e eke hoiho, a heoi ano a matou kianga atu ki te mahi a o matou ringa, Ko koutou o matou atua: e arohaina ana hoki te pani e koe.
4 Ka rongoatia e ahau to ratou tahuri ke, ka aroha ahau ki a ratou, he mea utukore: no te mea kua tahuri toku riri i a ia.
5 Ko taku ki a Iharaira ka rite ki te tomairangi; ka rite tona tupu ki to te rengarenga, te totoro o ona pakiaka ka rite ki to Repanona.
6 Ka tautoro ona manga, ka rite tona ataahua ki to te oriwa, tona kakara ki to Repanona.
7 Ko te hunga e noho ana i raro i tona marumaru ka hoki mai: ka ora ake ratou, ka pera me te witi, ka rite to ratou tupu ki to te waina: ko tona kakara ka rite ki to te waina o Repanona.
8 Tera a Eparaima e ki, Hei aha ake maku nga whakapakoko? kua rongo ahau ki a ia, kua kite i a ia; ko toku rite kei te kauri matomato. Ka kitea ki ahau he hua mou.
9 Ko wai te mea whakaaro nui hei matau ki enei mea? ko wai te mea tupato e mohiotia ai? tika tonu hoki nga ara a Ihowa, a ka haere te hunga tika i reira, ka taka ia te hunga he i reira.

勸其悔罪歸主
14 以色列啊，你要歸向耶和華你的神！你是因自己的罪孽跌倒了。 2 當歸向耶和華，用言語禱告他說：「求你除淨罪孽，悅納善行，這樣，我們就把嘴唇的祭代替牛犢獻上。 3 我們不向亞述求救，不騎埃及的馬，也不再對我們手所造的說『你是我們的神』，因為孤兒在你耶和華那裡得蒙憐憫。」
許復施恩眷愛
4 「我必醫治他們背道的病，甘心愛他們，因為我的怒氣向他們轉消。 5 我必向以色列如甘露，他必如百合花開放，如黎巴嫩的樹木扎根。 6 他的枝條必延長，他的榮華如橄欖樹，他的香氣如黎巴嫩的香柏樹。 7 曾住在他蔭下的必歸回，發旺如五穀，開花如葡萄樹，他的香氣如黎巴嫩的酒。 8 以法蓮必說：『我與偶像還有什麼關涉呢？』我耶和華回答他，也必顧念他。我如青翠的松樹，你的果子從我而得。」
9 誰是智慧人，可以明白這些事；誰是通達人，可以知道這一切。因為耶和華的道是正直的，義人必在其中行走，罪人卻在其上跌倒。

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.
