절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Turn Back to the Listen, nation of Israel, to my mournful message:	Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
2	You, dearest Israel, have fallen, never to rise again— you lie deserted in your own land, with no one to help you up.	The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
3	The Lord God has warned, “From every ten soldiers only one will be left; from a thousand troops, only a hundred will survive.”	For thus saith the Lord God; The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred, and that which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.
4	The Lord keeps saying, “Israel, turn back to me and you will live!	For thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
5	Don't go to Gilgal or Bethel or even to Beersheba. Gilgal will be dragged away, and Bethel will end up as nothing.”	But seek not Beth–el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer–sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Beth–el shall come to nought.
6	Turn back to the Lord, you descendants of Joseph, and you will live. If you don't, the Lord will attack like fire. Bethel will burn to the ground, and no one can save it.	Seek the Lord, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Beth–el.
7	You people are doomed! You twist the truth and trample on justice.	Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
8	But the Lord created the stars and put them in place. He turns darkness to dawn and daylight to darkness; he scoops up the ocean and empties it on the earth.	Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name:
9	God destroys mighty soldiers and strong fortresses.	That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
10	Choose Good Instead of Evil! / The said: You people hate judges and honest witnesses;	They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
11	you abuse the poor and demand heavy taxes from them. You have built expensive homes, but you won't enjoy them; you have planted vineyards, but you will get no wine.	Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
12	I am the Lord, and I know your terrible sins. You cheat honest people and take bribes; you rob the poor of justice.	For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
13	Times are so evil that anyone with good sense will keep quiet.	Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.
14	If you really want to live, you must stop doing wrong and start doing right. I, the Lord God All-Powerful, will then be on your side, just as you claim I am.	Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
15	Choose good instead of evil! See that justice is done. Maybe I, the Lord All-Powerful, will be kind to what's left of your people.	Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the Lord God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
16	Judgment Is Coming This is what the Lord has sworn: Noisy crying will be heard in every town and street. Even farmers will be told to mourn for the dead, together with those who are paid to mourn.	Therefore the Lord, the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.
17	Your vineyards will be filled with crying and weeping, because I will punish you. I, the Lord, have spoken!	And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the Lord.
18	When the Judges You look forward to the day when the Lord comes to judge. But you are in for trouble! It won't be a time of sunshine; all will be darkness.	Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.
19	You will run from a lion, only to meet a bear. You will escape to your house, rest your hand on the wall, and be bitten by a snake.	As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
20	The day when the Lord judges will be dark, very dark, without a ray of light.	Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
21	What the Demands I, the Lord, hate and despise your religious celebrations and your times of worship.	I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
22	I won't accept your offerings or animal sacrifices— not even your very best.	Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
23	No more of your noisy songs! I won't listen when you play your harps.	Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.
24	But let justice and fairness flow like a river that never runs dry.	But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
25	Israel, for forty years you wandered in the desert, without bringing offerings or sacrifices to me.	Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
26	Now you will have to carry the two idols you made— Sakkuth, the one you call king, and Kaiwan, the one you built in the shape of a star.	But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
27	I will force you to march as captives beyond Damascus. I, the Lord God All-Powerful, have spoken!	Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the Lord, whose name is The God of hosts.
