절Contemporary English Version (2006)King James Version
1 All day long Israel chases wind from the desert; deceit and violence are found everywhere. Treaties are made with Assyria; olive oil is taken to Egypt. Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he daily increaseth lies and desolation; and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt.
2
Israel and Judah Condemned
The Lord also brings charges against the people of Judah, the descendants of Jacob. He will punish them for what they have done.
The Lord hath also a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will he recompense him.
3 Even before Jacob was born, he cheated his brother, and when he grew up, he fought against God. He took his brother by the heel in the womb, and by his strength he had power with God:
4 At Bethel, Jacob wrestled with an angel and won; then with tears in his eyes, he asked for a blessing, and God spoke to us there. Yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and made supplication unto him: he found him in Beth–el, and there he spake with us;
5 God's name is the Lord, the Lord God All-Powerful. Even the Lord God of hosts; the Lord is his memorial.
6 So return to your God. Patiently trust him, and show love and justice. Therefore turn thou to thy God: keep mercy and judgment, and wait on thy God continually.
7 Israel, you enjoy cheating and taking advantage of others. He is a merchant, the balances of deceit are in his hand: he loveth to oppress.
8 You say to yourself, “I'm rich! I earned it all on my own, without committing a sin.” And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out substance: in all my labours they shall find none iniquity in me that were sin.
9
The Is Still the God of Israel
Israel, I, the Lord, am still your God, just as I have been since the time you were in Egypt. Now I will force you to live in tents once again, as you did in the desert.
And I that am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the solemn feast.
10 I spoke to the prophets— often I spoke in visions. And so, I will send my prophets with messages of doom. I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.
11 Gilead is terribly sinful and will end up ruined. Bulls are sacrificed in Gilgal on altars made of stones, but those stones will be scattered in every field. Is there iniquity in Gilead? surely they are vanity: they sacrifice bullocks in Gilgal; yea, their altars are as heaps in the furrows of the fields.
12 Jacob escaped to Syria where he tended sheep to earn himself a wife. And Jacob fled into the country of Syria, and Israel served for a wife, and for a wife he kept sheep.
13 I sent the prophet Moses to lead Israel from Egypt and to keep them safe. And by a prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved.
14 Israel, I will make you pay for your violent crimes and for insulting me. Ephraim provoked him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his blood upon him, and his reproach shall his Lord return unto him.
