Hosea 1
1 The LORD’s word that came to Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
当乌西雅、约坦、亚哈斯、希西家作犹大王，约阿施的儿子耶罗波安作以色列王的时候，耶和华的话临到备利的儿子何西阿。
2 When the LORD spoke at first by Hosea, the LORD said to Hosea, “Go, take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of unfaithfulness; for the land commits great adultery, forsaking the LORD.”
耶和华初次与何西阿说话，对他说：“你去娶淫妇为妻，也收那从淫乱所生的儿女；因为这地大行淫乱，离弃耶和华。”
3 So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.
于是，何西阿去娶了滴拉音的女儿歌篾。这妇人怀孕，给他生了一个儿子。
4 The LORD said to him, “Call his name Jezreel, for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.
耶和华对何西阿说：“给他起名叫耶斯列；因为再过片时，我必讨耶户家在耶斯列杀人流血的罪，也必使以色列家的国灭绝。
5 It will happen in that day that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Jezreel.”
到那日，我必在耶斯列平原折断以色列的弓。”
6 She conceived again, and bore a daughter. Then he said to him, “Call her name Lo-Ruhamah, for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should in any way pardon them.
歌篾又怀孕生了一个女儿，耶和华对何西阿说：“给她起名叫罗·路哈玛；因为我必不再怜悯以色列家，决不赦免他们。
7 But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, sword, battle, horses, or horsemen.”
我却要怜悯犹大家，使他们靠耶和华—他们的 神得救，不使他们靠弓、刀、争战、马匹，与马兵得救。”
8 Now when she had weaned Lo-Ruhamah, she conceived, and bore a son.
歌篾给罗·路哈玛断奶以后，又怀孕生了一个儿子。
9 He said, “Call his name Lo-Ammi, for you are not my people, and I will not be yours.
耶和华说：“给他起名叫罗·阿米；因为你们不作我的子民，我也不作你们的 神。”
10 Yet the number of the children of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, which can’t be measured or counted; and it will come to pass that, in the place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ they will be called ‘sons of the living God.’
然而，以色列的人数必如海沙，不可量，不可数。从前在什么地方对他们说“你们不是我的子民”，将来在那里必对他们说“你们是永生 神的儿子”。
11 The children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint themselves one head, and will go up from the land; for great will be the day of Jezreel.
犹大人和以色列人必一同聚集，为自己立一个首领，从这地上去，因为耶斯列的日子必为大日。
