何西阿書 4	Hosea 4
何西阿書 4:1 ^ 以色列人哪、你們當聽耶和華的話．耶和華與這地的居民爭辯、因這地上無誠實、無良善、無人認識　神。	Hosea 4:1 ^ Give ear to the word of the Lord, O children of Israel; for the Lord has a cause against the people of this land, because there is no good faith in it, and no mercy and no knowledge of God in the land.
何西阿書 4:2 ^ 但起假誓、不踐前言、殺害、偷盜、姦淫、行強暴、殺人流血接連不斷。	Hosea 4:2 ^ There is cursing and broken faith, violent death and attacks on property, men are untrue in married life, houses are broken into, and there is blood touching blood.
何西阿書 4:3 ^ 因此、這地悲哀、其上的民、田野的獸、空中的鳥、必都衰微、海中的魚也必消滅。	Hosea 4:3 ^ Because of this the land will be dry, and everyone living in it will be wasted away, with the beasts of the field and the birds of heaven; even the fishes of the sea will be taken away.
何西阿書 4:4 ^ 然而人都不必爭辯、也不必指責、因為這民與抗拒祭司的人一樣。	Hosea 4:4 ^ Let no man go to law or make protests, for your people are like those who go to law with a priest.
何西阿書 4:5 ^ 你這祭司、必日間跌倒、．先知也必夜間與你一同跌倒．我必滅絕你的母親。	Hosea 4:5 ^ You will not be able to keep on your feet by day, and by night the prophet will be falling down with you, and I will give your mother to destruction.
何西阿書 4:6 ^ 我的民因無知識而滅亡．你棄掉知識、我也必棄掉你、使你不再給我作祭司．你既忘了你　神的律法、我也必忘記你的兒女。	Hosea 4:6 ^ Destruction has overtaken my people because they have no knowledge; because you have given up knowledge, I will give you up, so that you will be no priest to me, because you have not kept in mind the law of your God, I will not keep your children in my memory.
何西阿書 4:7 ^ 祭司越發增多、就越發得罪我．我必使他們的榮耀變為羞辱、	Hosea 4:7 ^ Even while they were increasing in number they were sinning against me; I will let their glory be changed into shame.
何西阿書 4:8 ^ 他們喫我民的贖罪祭、滿心願意我民犯罪。	Hosea 4:8 ^ The sin of my people is like food to them; and their desire is for their wrongdoing.
何西阿書 4:9 ^ 將來民如何、祭司也必如何、我必因他們所行的懲罰他們、照他們所作的報應他們。	Hosea 4:9 ^ And the priest will be like the people; I will give them punishment for their evil ways, and the reward of their acts.
何西阿書 4:10 ^ 他們喫、卻不得飽．行淫、而不得立後．因為他們離棄耶和華、不遵他的命。	Hosea 4:10 ^ They will have food, but they will not be full; they will be false to me, but they will not be increased, because they no longer give thought to the Lord.
何西阿書 4:11 ^ 姦淫和酒、並新酒、奪去人的心。	Hosea 4:11 ^ Loose ways and new wine take away wisdom.
何西阿書 4:12 ^ 我的民求問木偶、以為木杖能指示他們、因為他們的淫心使他們失迷、他們就行淫離棄　神、不守約束。	Hosea 4:12 ^ My people get knowledge from their tree, and their rod gives them news; for a false spirit is the cause of their wandering, and they have been false to their God.
何西阿書 4:13 ^ 在各山頂、各高岡的橡樹、楊樹、栗樹之下、獻祭燒香、因為樹影美好．所以你們的女兒淫亂、你們的新婦〔或作兒婦下同〕行淫。	Hosea 4:13 ^ They make offerings on the tops of mountains, burning perfumes in high places, under trees of every sort, because their shade is good: and so your daughters are given up to loose ways and your brides are false to their husbands.
何西阿書 4:14 ^ 你們的女兒淫亂、你們的新婦行淫、我卻不懲罰他們、因為你們自己離群與娼妓同居、與妓女一同獻祭、這無知的民、必致傾倒。	Hosea 4:14 ^ I will not give punishment to your daughters or your brides for their evil behaviour; for they make themselves separate with loose women, and make offerings with those who are used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods: the people who have no wisdom will be sent away.
何西阿書 4:15 ^ 以色列阿、你雖然行淫、猶大卻不可犯罪．不要往吉甲去、不要上到伯亞文、也不要指著永生的耶和華起誓。	Hosea 4:15 ^ Do not you, O Israel, come into error; do not you, O Judah, come to Gilgal, or go up to Beth-aven, or take an oath, By the living Lord.
何西阿書 4:16 ^ 以色列倔強、猶如倔強的母牛．現在耶和華要放他們、如同放羊羔在寬闊之地。	Hosea 4:16 ^ For Israel is uncontrolled, like a cow which may not be controlled; now will the Lord give them food like a lamb in a wide place.
何西阿書 4:17 ^ 以法蓮親近偶像、任憑他罷。	Hosea 4:17 ^ Ephraim is joined to false gods; let him be.
何西阿書 4:18 ^ 他們所喝的已經發酸．他們時常行淫、他們的官長最愛羞恥的事。	Hosea 4:18 ^ Their drink has become bitter; they are completely false; her rulers take pleasure in shame.
何西阿書 4:19 ^ 風把他們裹在翅膀裡．他們因所獻的祭必致蒙羞。	Hosea 4:19 ^ They are folded in the skirts of the wind; they will be shamed because of their offerings.
