| 9:1 | 以色列阿、不要像外邦人欢喜快乐、因为你行邪淫离弃你的 神、在各榖场上如妓女喜爱赏赐。 | Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor. |
| 9:2 | 榖场和酒醡、都不够以色列人使用、新酒也必缺乏。 | The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall fail in her. |
| 9:3 | 他们必不得住耶和华的地、以法莲却要归回埃及、必在亚述吃不洁净的食物。 | They shall not dwell in the LORD's land; but Ephraim shall return to Egypt, and they shall eat unclean things in Assyria. |
| 9:4 | 他们必不得向耶和华奠酒、即便奠酒、也不蒙悦纳.他们的祭物、必如居丧者的食物、凡吃的必被玷污、因他们的食物、只为自己的口腹、必不奉入耶和华的殿。 | They shall not offer wine offerings to the LORD, neither shall they be pleasing unto him: their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for their bread for their soul shall not come into the house of the LORD. |
| 9:5 | 在大会的日子、到耶和华的节期、你们怎样行呢。 | What will ye do in the solemn day, and in the day of the feast of the LORD? |
| 9:6 | 看哪、他们逃避灾难、埃及人必收殓他们的尸首、摩弗人必葬埋他们的骸骨.他们用银子作的美物上必长蒺藜.他们的帐棚中必生荆棘。 | For, lo, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles. |
| 9:7 | 以色列人必知道降罚的日子临近、报应的时候来到.(民说、作先知的是愚昧、受灵感的是狂妄.)皆因他们多多作孽、大怀怨恨。 | The days of visitation are come, the days of recompence are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of thine iniquity, and the great hatred. |
| 9:8 | 以法莲曾作我 神守望的、至于先知、在他一切的道上作为捕鸟人的网罗、在他 神的家中怀怨恨。 | The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: but the prophet is a snare of a fowler in all his ways, and hatred in the house of his God. |
| 9:9 | 以法莲深深地败坏、如在基比亚的日子一样.耶和华必记念他们的罪孽、追讨他们的罪恶。 | They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins. |
| 9:10 | 主说、我遇见以色列如葡萄在旷野、我看见你们的列祖如无花果树上春季初熟的果子.他们却来到巴力毗珥专拜那可羞耻的、就成为可憎恶的、与他们所爱的一样。 | I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the firstripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baalpeor, and separated themselves unto that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved. |
| 9:11 | 至于以法莲人、他们的荣耀必如鸟飞去、必不生产、不怀胎、不成孕。 | As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception. |
| 9:12 | 纵然养大儿女、我却必使他们丧子、甚至不留一个.我离弃他们、他们就有祸了。 | Though they bring up their children, yet will I bereave them, that there shall not be a man left: yea, woe also to them when I depart from them! |
| 9:13 | 我看以法莲如推罗栽于美地.以法莲却要将自己的儿女带出来、交与行杀戮的人。 | Ephraim, as I saw Tyrus, is planted in a pleasant place: but Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the murderer. |
| 9:14 | 耶和华阿、求你加给他们加什么呢、要使他们胎坠乳干。 | Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. |
| 9:15 | 耶和华说、他们一切的恶事都在吉甲、我在那里憎恶他们、因他们所行的恶、我必从我地上赶出他们去、不再怜爱他们.他们的首领都是悖逆的。 | All their wickedness is in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes are revolters. |
| 9:16 | 以法莲受责罚、根本枯干、必不能结果、即或生产、我必杀他们所生的爱子。 | Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit: yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb. |
| 9:17 | 我的 神必弃绝他们、因为他们不听从他.他们也必飘流在列国中。 | My God will cast them away, because they did not hearken unto him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations. |
