何7:1 “我医治以色列的时候，以法莲的罪孽，和撒玛利亚的罪恶就显露出来；因为他们行欺诈，小偷入屋偷窃，强盗在外抢劫。
何7:1 When my desire was for the fate of my people to be changed and to make Israel well, then the sin of Ephraim was made clear, and the evil-doing of Samaria; for their ways are false, and the thief comes into the house, while the band of outlaws takes property by force in the streets.
何7:2 他们心里并未想到，我记得他们的一切罪恶。他们所作的一切，现在都围绕他们，都在我面前。
何7:2 And they do not say to themselves that I keep in mind all their sin; now their evil acts come round them on every side; they are before my face.
何7:3 他们以自己的恶行讨王欢喜，用自己的虚谎叫领袖快乐。
何7:3 In their sin they make a king for themselves, and rulers in their deceit.
何7:4 他们全是犯奸淫的，像一个被烤饼的人烧热的火炉，从抟面，直到全团发酵的时候，烤饼的人暂停使火发旺。
何7:4 They are all untrue; they are like a burning oven; the bread-maker does not make up the fire from the time when the paste is mixed till it is leavened.
何7:5 在我们王喜庆的日子，领袖们因酒的烈性而生病，王就与亵慢人连手。
何7:5 On the day of our king, the rulers made him ill with the heat of wine; his hand was stretched out with the men of pride.
何7:6 他们阴谋埋伏的时候，心中烧得热如火炉。他们整夜抑制怒气，一到早晨，却像发出火焰的火燃烧起来。
何7:6 For they have made their hearts ready like an oven, while they are waiting secretly; their wrath is sleeping all night; in the morning it is burning like a flaming fire.
何7:7 所有的人都热如火炉，吞灭他们的官长。他们所有的君王都倒毙了，他们中间没有一人向我呼求。
何7:7 They are all heated like an oven, and they put an end to their judges; all their kings have been made low; not one among them makes prayer to me.
何7:8 “以法莲与外族混杂，以法莲是没有翻过的饼。
何7:8 Ephraim is mixed with the peoples; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
何7:9 外族人吞吃了他的力量，他却不知道；他头上满是白发，他也不晓得。
何7:9 Men from other lands have made waste his strength, and he is not conscious of it; grey hairs have come on him here and there, and he has no knowledge of it.
何7:10 虽然以色列的骄傲当面指证自己，他们却不回转归向耶和华他们的 神，也不因此寻求他。
何7:10 And the pride of Israel gives an answer to his face; but for all this, they have not gone back to the Lord their God, or made search for him.
何7:11 以法莲好像一只愚蠢无知的鸽子。他们向埃及求助，投奔亚述。
何7:11 And Ephraim is like a foolish dove, without wisdom; they send out their cry to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
何7:12 但他们去的时候，我要把我的网撒在他们身上；我要把他们如同空中的飞鸟打下来。我要按着他们会众所听见的，惩罚他们。
何7:12 When they go, my net will be stretched out over them; I will take them like the birds of heaven, I will give them punishment, I will take them away in the net for their sin.
何7:13 他们有祸了，因为他们离弃了我；他们遭毁灭，因为他们背叛了我。我虽然想救赎他们，他们却对我说谎。
何7:13 May trouble be theirs! for they have gone far away from me; and destruction, for they have been sinning against me; I was ready to be their saviour, but they said false words against me.
何7:14 他们并没有真心向我呼求，只是在床上哀恸罢了。他们为了五谷和新酒割伤自己，仍然悖逆我。
何7:14 And they have not made prayer to me in their hearts, but they make loud cries on their beds; they are cutting themselves for food and wine, they are turned against me.
何7:15 我虽然锻炼他们的手臂，使它们有力，他们却图谋恶计攻击我。
何7:15 Though I have given training and strength to their arms, they have evil designs against me.
何7:16 他们转向巴力，成了不可靠的了。他们的领袖因自己舌头上的狂傲倒在刀下，这在埃及地必成为被人讥笑的对象。”
何7:16 They have gone to what is of no value; they are like a false bow; their captains will come to destruction by the sword, and their ruler by my wrath; for this, the land of Egypt will make sport of them.
