6:1 [hgb] 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 。
[kjv] come, and let us return unto the lord: for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
[bbe] come, let us go back to the lord; for he has given us wounds and he will make us well; he has given blows and he will give help.
6:2 [hgb] 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 。

[bbe] after two days he will give us life, and on the third day he will make us get up, and we will be living before him.
6:3 [hgb] 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 。
[kjv] then shall we know, if we follow on to know the lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.
[bbe] and let us have knowledge, let us go after the knowledge of the lord; his going out is certain as the dawn, his decisions go out like the light; he will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.
6:4 [hgb] 主 说 ， 以 法 莲 哪 ， 我 可 向 你 怎 样 行 呢 ？ 犹 大 阿 ， 我 可 向 你 怎 样 做 呢 ？ 因 为 你 们 的 良 善 ， 如 同 早 晨 的 云 雾 ， 又 如 速 散 的 甘 露 。
[kjv] o ephraim, what shall i do unto thee? o judah, what shall i do unto thee? for your goodness is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew it goeth away.
[bbe] o ephraim, what am i to do to you? o judah, what am i to do to you? for your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew which goes early away.
6:5 [hgb] 因 此 ， 我 借 先 知 砍 伐 他 们 ， 以 我 口 中 的 话 杀 戮 他 们 ， 我 施 行 的 审 判 如 光 发 出 。
[kjv] therefore have i hewed them by the prophets; i have slain them by the words of my mouth: and thy judgments are as the light that goeth forth.
[bbe] so i have had it cut in stones; i gave them teaching by the words of my mouth;
6:6 [hgb] 我 喜 爱 良 善 （ 或 作 怜 恤 ） ， 不 喜 爱 祭 祀 ， 喜 爱 认 识 神 ， 胜 于 燔 祭 。
[kjv] for i desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of god more than burnt offerings.
[bbe] because my desire is for mercy and not offerings; for the knowledge of god more than for burned offerings.
6:7 [hgb] 他 们 却 如 亚 当 背 约 ， 在 境 内 向 我 行 事 诡 诈 。
[kjv] but they like men have transgressed the covenant: there have they dealt treacherously against me.
[bbe] but like a man, they have gone against the agreement; there they were false to me.
6:8 [hgb] 基 列 是 作 孽 之 人 的 城 。 被 血 沾 染 。
[kjv] gilead is a city of them that work iniquity, and is polluted with blood.
[bbe] gilead is a town of evil-doers, marked with blood.
6:9 [hgb] 强 盗 成 群 ， 怎 样 埋 伏 杀 人 。 祭 司 结 党 ， 也 照 样 在 示 剑 的 路 上 杀 戮 ， 行 了 邪 恶 。
[kjv] and as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
[bbe] and like a band of thieves waiting for a man, so are the priests watching secretly the way of those going quickly to shechem, for they are working with an evil design.
6:10 [hgb] 在 以 色 列 家 ， 我 见 了 可 憎 的 事 。 在 以 法 莲 那 里 有 淫 行 ， 以 色 列 被 玷 污 。

[bbe] in israel i have seen a very evil thing; there false ways are seen in ephraim, israel is unclean;
6:11 [hgb] 犹 大 阿 ， 我 使 被 掳 之 民 归 回 的 时 候 ， 必 有 为 你 所 命 定 的 收 场 。
[kjv] also, o judah, he hath set an harvest for thee, when i returned the captivity of my people.
[bbe] and judah has put up disgusting images for himself.
