Hosea 6

1 Come, let us return to the LORD. For He has torn us to pieces, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bind up our wounds.

1 来吧，我们归向耶和华！ 他撕裂我们，也必医治； 他打伤我们，也必缠裹。

2 After two days He will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up, that we may live in His presence.

2 过两天他必使我们苏醒， 第三天他必使我们兴起， 我们就在他面前得以存活。

3 So let us know—let us press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, He will appear; He will come to us like the rain, like the spring showers that water the earth.

3 我们务要认识耶和华， 竭力追求认识他。 他出现确如晨光； 他必临到我们像甘雨， 像滋润田地的春雨。

4 What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning mist, like the early dew that vanishes.

4 主说：以法莲哪，我可向你怎样行呢？ 犹大啊，我可向你怎样做呢？ 因为你们的良善如同早晨的云雾， 又如速散的甘露。

5 Therefore I have hewn them by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth, and My judgments go forth like lightning.

5 因此，我借先知砍伐他们， 以我口中的话杀戮他们； 我施行的审判如光发出。

6 For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings.

6 我喜爱良善 ，不喜爱祭祀； 喜爱认识 神，胜于燔祭。

7 But they, like Adam, have transgressed the covenant; there they were unfaithful to Me.

7 他们却如亚当背约， 在境内向我行事诡诈。

8 Gilead is a city of evildoers, tracked with footprints of blood.

8 基列是作孽之人的城， 被血沾染。

9 Like raiders who lie in ambush, so does a band of priests; they murder on the way to Shechem; surely they have committed atrocities.

9 强盗成群，怎样埋伏杀人， 祭司结党，也照样在示剑的路上杀戮， 行了邪恶。

10 In the house of Israel I have seen a horrible thing: Ephraim practices prostitution there, and Israel is defiled.

10 在以色列家，我见了可憎的事； 在以法莲那里有淫行， 以色列被玷污。

11 Also for you, O Judah, a harvest is appointed, when I restore My people from captivity.

11 犹大啊，我使被掳之民归回的时候， 必有为你所命定的收场。
