何13:1
从前以法莲说话、人都战兢、他在以色列中居处高位、但他在事奉巴力的事上犯罪就死了。
When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling. He exalted himself in Israel, but when he became guilty in Baal, he died.
主耶稣！亚当和夏娃因不听从神的吩咐, 却是听蛇的话, 吃了分别善恶的果子. 听从蛇的话, 等于事奉它. 主啊！每早晨, 我要提醒自己, 要听从神的话, 要读神的话, 晓得一切假消息, 假新闻, 都是蛇在说话. 求圣灵求相助, 不再听从假新闻, 不事奉假新闻背后的主人, 魔鬼撒旦.
何12:12
从前雅各逃到亚兰地、以色列为得妻服事人、为得妻与人放羊。
Jacob fled into the country of Aram, and Israel served to get a wife, and for a wife he tended flocks and herds.
主耶苏！ 何西亚写这一段历史, 雅各逃避哥哥的追杀, 服事拉班为了娶利百加. 我感受到神在提醒我, 人可以为了爱而付出一切. 使徒保罗为爱基督的缘故, 就以软弱, 凌辱, 急难, 逼迫, 困苦, 为可喜乐的. 主啊！耶和华神是我的力量, 是我所爱的, 我愿意为神付出一切.
何12:1,7-8
以法莲吃风、且追赶东风．时常增添虚谎和强暴．与亚述立约、把油送到埃及。以法莲是商人、手里有诡诈的天平、爱行欺骗。以法莲说、我果然成了富足、得了财宝．我所劳碌得来的、人必不见有甚么不义、可算为罪的。
Ephraim feeds on wind, and chases the east wind. He continually multiplies lies and desolation. They make a covenant with Assyria, and oil is carried into Egypt. A merchant has dishonest scales in his hand. He loves to defraud. Ephraim said, "Surely I have become rich, I have found myself wealth. In all my wealth they won't find in me any iniquity that is sin."
主耶稣！以法莲的聪明反被聪明误，被自己所骗。主啊！神赐给我们思维的能力，我要用这能力来思考神所喜悦的经商法则，有神的公义，正直，和诚信。叫我的言行举止都是在荣耀神的名。
何11:9-11
我必不发猛烈的怒气、也不再毁灭以法莲、因我是神、并非世人、是你们中间的圣者、我必不在怒中临到你们。耶和华必如狮子吼叫、子民必跟随他、他一吼叫、他们就从西方急速而来。他们必如雀鸟从埃及急速而来、又如鸽子从亚述地来到．我必使他们住自己的房屋、这是耶和华说的。
I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you; and I will not come in wrath. They will walk after Yahweh, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west. They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will settle them in their houses," says Yahweh.
主耶稣！我的心充满感恩，天父对世人的大爱，以仁义，慈爱，怜悯，公正，诚实聘我们，且预备全备的救恩，为蒙恩得救的人预备永恒的住所。阿爸，父啊！除祢以外，别无真神。祢是我灵魂的归属。
何11:1-2,8
以色列年幼的时候我爱他、就从埃及召出我的儿子来。先知越发招呼他们、他们越发走开、向诸巴力献祭、给雕刻的偶像烧香。以法莲哪、我怎能舍弃你、以色列阿、我怎能弃绝你、我怎能使你如押玛、怎能使你如洗扁、我回心转意、我的怜爱大大发动。
"When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burned incense to engraved images. "How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
主耶稣！耶和华神说，我怎能弃绝你。这句话有如强大的磁力，将我从远处吸回。主啊！这是天父永恒不变的爱，天父永无止尽的怜悯，天父无与相比的恩典。耶和华爱我的神，我要一生敬畏祢的话。
何10:12
你们要为自己栽种公义、就能收割慈爱、现今正是寻求耶和华的时候、你们要开垦荒地、等他临到、使公义如雨降在你们身上。
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
主耶稣！眼目，肉体，骄傲的私欲，无时无刻在诱惑人，而公义的光辉变的暗淡。没有公义的爱心是恶的，国家没有公义，必落入黑暗。主啊！我的爱心要栽种在公义，正直，怜悯，诚实的土地上。
何10:1-2
以色列是茂盛的葡萄树、结果繁多、果子越多、就越增添祭坛．地土越肥美、就越造美丽的柱像。他们心怀二意、现今要定为有罪．耶和华必拆毁他们的祭坛、毁坏他们的柱像。
Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
主耶稣！祢的话说，心怀二意，神不喜悦，他们的祷告，神不垂听。主啊！求祢光照我们的心思意念，对神的吩咐有疑惑不解，对神仆人的劝勉存疑惑不信任的，求祢拔出我们顽梗的思路，拆毁我心中偶像的祭坛。
何9:11,16-17
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。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。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。
As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird. There will be no birth, none with child, and no conception. Ephraim is struck. Their root has dried up. They will bear no fruit. Even though they bring forth, yet I will kill the beloved ones of their womb." My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
主耶稣！以法连原本是昌盛，多结果子，是荣耀的，为何沦落到四处飘流。因为以法连背弃耶和华神。主啊！我们有不能活出昌盛，多结果子的生命，求圣灵光照，引导我们从顽梗中回转。
何8:14
以色列忘记造他的主、建造宫殿．犹大多造坚固城、我却要降火焚烧他的城邑、烧灭其中的宫殿。
For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces; and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire on his cities, and it will devour its fortresses."
主耶稣！我想起神的话说，你要记念耶和华你的神、因为得货财的力量是他给你的，为要坚定他向你列祖起誓所立的约。你若忘记耶和华你的神，随从别神，事奉敬拜，你们必定灭亡。主啊！什么时候我们心中充满私欲，所作的都为了满足自己，忘记家人身心灵的需要，求主责备，管教我。
何8:12
我为他写了律法万条、他却以为与他毫无关涉。
I wrote for him the many things of my law; but they were regarded as a strange thing.
主耶稣！神对以色列的爱，把各种各样的危害清楚写明，以色列民却把神的保护看成辖制。神就是爱，神的命令也是爱。爱神的也会爱的律法。主啊！我爱祢，我喜爱神的法则，诫命，典章。
何8:11
以法莲增添祭坛取罪、因此、祭坛使他犯罪。
Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning, they became for him altars for sinning.
主耶稣！我晓得以法莲的首城是撒玛利亚，以法莲跟随当地筑坛的文化，亲近偶像。主啊！我们居住的地方，不认识神的人四处筑坛，在树下，办公室，交通入口，大厦门前。求祢光照我们的心，赐给我们敬畏神的智慧，不畏惧它们，也不会向这些偶像献祭。
何8:5,6
撒玛利亚阿、耶和华已经丢弃你的牛犊．我的怒气向拜牛犊的人发作．他们到几时方能无罪呢。这牛犊出于以色列、是匠人所造的、并不是神．撒玛利亚的牛犊、必被打碎。
Let Samaria throw out his calf idol! My anger burns against them! How long will it be until they are capable of purity? For this is even from Israel! The workman made it, and it is no God; indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
主耶稣！以色列民制作牛犊，让撒玛利亚去膜拜，惹神的忿怒。制作偶像，膜拜偶像，都是神所憎恶的。神的怒气向拜偶像的人发作。主啊！我向祢求敬畏神的智慧，凡是神所憎恶的任何偶像，在我心里，家里，我都要丢弃。
何8:2-4
他们必呼叫我说、我的神阿、我们以色列认识你了。以色列丢弃良善、仇敌必追逼他。他们立君王、却不由我、他们立首领、我却不认．他们用金银为自己制造偶像、以致被剪除。
They cry to me, 'My God, we Israel acknowledge you!' Israel has cast off that which is good. The enemy will pursue him. They have set up kings, but not by me. They have made princes, and I didn't approve. Of their silver and their gold they have made themselves idols, that they may be cut off.
主耶稣！我想起，祢说，当那日必有许多人对祢说主阿，主阿，我们不是祢的名传道，奉祢的名赶鬼，奉祢的名行许多异能么。祢就明明的告诉他们说，我从来不认识你们，你们这些作恶的人，离开我去吧。主啊！他们把神的真理当做谋生的工具，毫无敬畏神的心。求主保守我的心，到年老都要敬畏神的智慧。
何7:13,16
他们因离弃我、必定有祸、因违背我、必被毁灭．我虽要救赎他们、他们却向我说谎。他们归向、却不归向至上者．他们如同翻背的弓．他们的首领必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下．这在埃及地必作人的讥笑。
Woe to them! For they have wandered from me. Destruction to them! For they have trespassed against me. Though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me. They return, but not to the Most High. They are like a faulty bow. Their princes will fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.
主耶稣！我们说谎，以为是对人说，却不晓得在灵界里让恶者留下破口，攻击我和家人。主啊！求祢赦免我狂傲，说谎的过犯，求祢用祢大能的手，阻挡恶者对我和家人的攻击。
何7:10
以色列的骄傲当面见证自己、虽遭遇这一切、他们仍不归向耶和华他们的神、也不寻求他。
The pride of Israel testifies to his face; yet they haven't returned to Yahweh their God, nor sought him, for all this.
主耶稣！以色列民受到仇敌的欺压，却不晓得是他们的骄傲带来的后果。主啊！求圣灵光照我内心的隐密处，让我看到心里骄傲之处。我要及时醒悟，归回耶和华神，寻求主的面，晓得如何活出敬畏神的生命。
何6:11
犹大阿、我使被掳之民归回的时候、必有为你所命定的收场。
"Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
主耶稣！我想起，经上有句话说，事情的终局强如事情的起头。天父的慈爱，永恒不变。犹大虽然软弱离弃神，神对犹大的爱，由始至终不变。主啊！我看见在末日，天父的爱将更大的向世人显明，正如以赛亚书65:1 所说的 ，素来没有访问神的，现在求问神。没有寻找神的，神要叫他们遇见。没有称为神名下的，神对他们说，我在这里，我在这里。
何6:3
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。
Let us acknowledge Yahweh. Let us press on to know Yahweh. As surely as the sun rises, Yahweh will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth."
主耶稣！运动员竭力追求奖杯，企业家竭力追求业绩，政治家竭力追求权力。主啊！我说，祢是我生命的保障，我要一生住在耶和华神的殿中，我问自己，我真的认识耶和华神吗？我有竭力追求认识祢吗？求祢施恩赐福于我，竭力追求更多认识神的荣耀，在凡事上荣耀天父的名。
何6:1-2
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。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。
"Come, and let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds. After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
主耶稣！我知道了，神的管教，难免会感到痛苦。能在痛苦中明白天父的爱，这是何等的祝福。主啊！冠状病毒疫情的受害者，求祢向他们施恩，赐给他们心里的智慧，在痛苦中认识神的慈爱，有勇气归向耶和华。
何5:15
我要回到原处、等他们自觉有罪、〔或作承认己罪〕寻求我面、他们在急难的时候必切切寻求我。
I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly."
主耶稣！我要感谢天父，我在何处跌倒，也要在那里认罪，悔改，归回，归向神。因为，神在原处等候我的归回。我不再需要掩饰我的软弱，因为靠着主的恩典，我可以再次刚强起来。主啊！什么时候我有软弱的地方，我要及时拥抱主的信实，拥抱主的怜悯。靠主的恩典，刚强壮胆，战胜软弱。
何4:14
你们的女儿淫乱、你们的新妇行淫、我却不惩罚他们、因为你们自己离群与娼妓同居、与妓女一同献祭、这无知的民、必致倾倒。
I will not punish your daughters when they play the prostitute, nor your brides when they commit adultery; because the men consort with prostitutes, and they sacrifice with the shrine prostitutes; so the people without understanding will come to ruin.
主耶稣！我们误解了神的意思，犯罪未受到刑罚，以为神不会惩罚。神的话，说，罪的工价就是死。那以情欲撒种的，要收取败坏。主啊！求祢怜悯我和我的一家，我们有亏欠神荣耀的行为，求祢赦免。
何4:11
奸淫和酒、并新酒、夺去人的心。
Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.
主耶稣！贪财为万恶之根。今早，我省察我内心深处，所喜爱的美食，娱乐，所喜悦的朋友圈，同时回顾过去在何处犯上的贪婪，贪吃，贪玩。主啊！求祢的光照明我内心深处有贪心的地方，好叫我得着悔改归正的恩典，不让诱惑在心中存留。
何4:6
我的民因无知识而灭亡．你弃掉知识、我也必弃掉你、使你不再给我作祭司．你既忘了你神的律法、我也必忘记你的儿女。
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you may be no priest to me. Because you have forgotten your God's law, I will also forget your children.
主耶稣！人一旦有了私心，就会不把神的良善，仁爱，公平，怜悯，诚实，话语当作宝贝存在心里。主啊！我要告诉自己，不可以把神给忘了，每早晨我都要告诉自己，要听神的话，要记得神的公义和仁慈。晚上，也要告诉自己，要感谢天父今天的恩典。
何3:5
后来以色列人必归回、寻求他们的 神耶和华、和他们的王大卫．在末后的日子、必以敬畏的心归向耶和华、领受他的恩惠。
Afterward the children of Israel shall return, and seek Yahweh their God, and David their king, and shall come with trembling to Yahweh and to his blessings in the last days.
主耶稣！末日以色列民必归回，寻求耶和华，他们列祖的神。这是天父的心意，是天上的旨意。主啊！这日子必速速来到，以色列民和外邦人的心都正朝向耶路撒冷，要在东门迎接主祢的再来。
何3:1
耶和华对我说、你再去爱一个淫妇、就是他情人所爱的、好象以色列人、虽然偏向别神、喜爱葡萄饼、耶和华还是爱他们。
Yahweh said to me, "Go again, love a woman loved by another, and an adulteress, even as Yahweh loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins."
主耶稣！以色列民离弃耶和华神，向神背逆，耶和华还是爱他们，因着与亚伯拉罕所立的盐约。主啊！世人离弃造他们的神，将荣耀归给人手造的神，但是，耶和华神爱世人，祢在十字架上流出宝血舍命，神的爱在此向世人显明。
何2:23
我必将他种在这地、素不蒙怜悯的、我必怜悯、本非我民的、我必对他说、你是我的民、他必说、你是我的神。
I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God!'"
主耶稣！我从神与以色列民的关系中，看到神爱世人，不愿一人沉沦，乃是要万人得救的一幕。这正是，祢在十字架上完成的救赎恩典，要救世人，归向至高神。主啊！愿天父的旨意行在地上。
何2:19-22
我必聘你永远归我为妻、以仁义、公平、慈爱、怜悯聘你归我．也以诚实聘你归我、你就必认识我耶和华。耶和华说、那日我必应允、我必应允天、天必应允地。地必应允五谷、新酒、和油、这些必应允耶斯列民。
I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion. I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know Yahweh. It will happen in that day, I will respond," says Yahweh, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;
and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.
主耶稣！当我看到神的聘礼，心中的感动，非笔墨能以形容。我又看见十字架上的救恩，心中的感动加倍。主啊！我要一生一世，尽心尽力，来爱神，谨慎自守，遵循主道。
何2:18
当那日我必为我的民、与田野的走兽、和空中的飞鸟、并地上的昆虫立约．又必在国中折断弓刀、止息争战、使他们安然躺卧。
In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creeping things of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.
主耶稣！我观看，世上许多人不能够安然躺卧。穷乏人，富足人是如此，年轻人，老年人也是如此。这世界的人，所缺乏的是心灵里的平安。主啊！祢的话说，这世界有苦难，在祢里面有平安。我们信靠祢，顺服神的命令，借助圣灵的相助，在苦难，患难中，有主耶稣基督的平安，可以安然躺卧。
何2:14，16
后来我必劝导他、领他到旷野、对他说安慰的话．..耶和华说、那日你必称呼我伊施、〔就是我夫的意思〕不再称呼我巴力、〔就是我主的意思〕。
"Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her...It will be in that day," says Yahweh, "that you will call me 'my husband,' and no longer call me 'my master.'
主耶稣！神离弃我们不过是片时，因神的公义恒久不变。神爱我们是一生之久，因神的慈爱永远长存。主啊！因为神的怒气不过是转眼之间，他的恩典乃是一生之久。一宿虽然有哭泣，早晨便必欢呼。
