| 何西阿宣告以色列受懲罰 |
| 9:1 | [NASB] Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation like the nations! For you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. You have loved {harlots}' earnings on every threshing floor. |
| 9:2 | [NASB] Threshing floor and wine press will not feed them, And the new wine will fail them. |
| 9:3 | [NASB] They will not remain in the LORD'S land, But Ephraim will return to Egypt, And in Assyria they will eat unclean {food.} |
| 9:4 | [NASB] They will not pour out drink offerings of wine to the LORD, Their sacrifices will not please Him. {Their bread will} {be} like mourners' bread; All who eat of it will be defiled, For their bread will be for themselves {alone;} It will not enter the house of the LORD. |
| 9:5 | [NASB] What will you do on the day of the appointed festival And on the day of the feast of the LORD? |
| 9:6 | [NASB] For behold, they will go because of destruction; Egypt will gather them up, Memphis will bury them. Weeds will take over their treasures of silver; Thorns {will be} in their tents. |
| 9:7 | [NASB] The days of punishment have come, The days of retribution have come; Let Israel know {this!} The prophet is a fool, The inspired man is demented, Because of the grossness of your iniquity, And {because} your hostility is {so} great. |
| 9:8 | [NASB] Ephraim {was} a watchman with my God, a prophet; {Yet} the snare of a bird catcher is in all his ways, {And} there is {only} hostility in the house of his God. |
| 9:9 | [NASB] They have gone deep in depravity As in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their iniquity, He will punish their sins. |
| 9:10 | [NASB] I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your forefathers as the earliest fruit on the fig tree in its first {season.} {But} they came to Baal-peor and devoted themselves to shame, And they became as detestable as that which they loved. |
| 9:11 | [NASB] As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird-- No birth, no pregnancy and no conception! |
| 9:12 | [NASB] Though they bring up their children, Yet I will bereave them until not a man is left. Yes, woe to them indeed when I depart from them! |
| 9:13 | [NASB] Ephraim, as I have seen, Is planted in a pleasant meadow like Tyre; But Ephraim will bring out his children for slaughter. |
| 9:14 | [NASB] Give them, O LORD--what will You give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. |
| 9:15 | [NASB] All their evil is at Gilgal; Indeed, I came to hate them there! Because of the wickedness of their deeds I will drive them out of My house! I will love them no more; All their princes are rebels. |
| 9:16 | [NASB] Ephraim is stricken, their root is dried up, They will bear no fruit. Even though they bear children, I will slay the precious ones of their womb. |
| 9:17 | [NASB] My God will cast them away Because they have not listened to Him; And they will be wanderers among the nations. |
