他们以那不是上帝的激起我妒忌，以虚无的神明惹我发怒。我要以不成国的激起你们嫉妒，我要以愚顽的国惹起你们发怒。

他们以那“不算为神”的触动我的愤恨，以虚无的神惹了我的怒气。我也要以那“不成子民”的触动他们的愤恨，以愚昧的国民惹了他们的怒气。

他们以那不是神的激起我妒忌，以虚无的神明惹我发怒。我要以不成国的激起你们嫉妒，我要以愚顽的国惹起你们发怒。

他们拜假神，让我愤恨；供虚无之物，惹我发怒。我要借无名之民挑起他们的嫉妒，用愚昧的国民激起他们的怒气。

他们以不是神的神激动了我的愤恨，以虚无之物惹动了我的怒气；我也以不是子民的人激动他们的愤恨，以愚昧的国民惹动他们的怒气。

他們以那「不算為神」的觸動我的憤恨，以虛無的神惹了我的怒氣。我也要以那「不成子民」的觸動他們的憤恨，以愚昧的國民惹了他們的怒氣。

他們拜假神，讓我憤恨；供虛無之物，惹我發怒。我要藉無名之民挑起他們的嫉妒，用愚昧的國民激起他們的怒氣。

他們以不是神的神激動了我的憤恨，以虛無之物惹動了我的怒氣；我也以不是子民的人激動他們的憤恨，以愚昧的國民惹動他們的怒氣。

他們呢、以那不是神的激了我的妒憤，以虛無的神惹了我發怒；我呢、也必以那不是子民的激他們的妒忌，以愚昧的外國人惹他們的憤恨。

彼以非神者觸我忌、以虛無者激我怒、我將以異族觸彼忌、以蚩氓激彼怒、

彼以非上帝匹我、干我震怒、彼崇事虛無、使我忿懥、故我將子異民、使彼發奮、子頑民、使彼激勵。

叩拜非天主動我忿心、崇事虛無干我震怒、我使賤族賤族或作異民動其忿恨、必使頑民激其惱怒、

They made me jealous by what is no god and angered me with their worthless idols. I will make them envious by those who are not a people; I will make them angry by a nation that has no understanding.

They made me jealous by serving what is not even a god. They made me angry by worshiping worthless statues of gods. I will use people who are not a nation to make them jealous. A nation that has no understanding will make them angry.

They have made me jealous with what is no god; they have provoked me to anger with their idols. So I will make them jealous with those who are no people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

They have roused my jealousy by worshiping things that are not God; they have provoked my anger with their useless idols. Now I will rouse their jealousy through people who are not even a people; I will provoke their anger through the foolish Gentiles.

They have provoked my jealousy with what is not a god; they have enraged me with their worthless idols. So I will provoke their jealousy with what is not a people; I will enrage them with a foolish nation.

They have made Me jealous with what is not God; They have provoked Me to anger with their idols. So I will make them jealous with those who are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation,

They have provoked Me to jealousy by what is not God; They have moved Me to anger by their foolish idols. But I will provoke them to jealousy by those who are not a nation; I will move them to anger by a foolish nation.

They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; They have provoked me to anger with their vanities: And I will move them to jealousy with those that are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

They have provoked My jealousy with their so-called gods; they have enraged Me with their worthless idols. So I will provoke their jealousy with an inferior people; I will enrage them with a foolish nation.

They have moved me to jealousy with[ that which is] not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with[ those which are] not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

They have made me jealous with false gods, enraging me with their worthless gods; so I will make them jealous with a people they do not recognize, with a nation slow to learn I will enrage them.

They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God. They have provoked me to anger with their vanities. I will move them to jealousy with those who are not a people. I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

我再问，以色列人不知道吗？先有摩西说：“我要以不成国的激起你们嫉妒；我要以愚顽的国惹起你们发怒。”

因为他行了尼八的儿子耶罗波安所行的道，犯他使以色列陷入罪里的那罪，以虚无的神明惹耶和华—以色列的上帝发怒。

正如上帝在《何西阿书》上说：“那本来不是我子民的，我要称为‘我的子民’；本来不是蒙爱的，我要称为‘蒙爱的’。

这是因为巴沙和他儿子以拉的一切罪，就是他们使以色列陷入罪里的那罪，以虚无的神明惹耶和华—以色列的上帝发怒。

那么，我再问，他们失足是要他们跌倒吗？绝对不是！因他们的过犯，救恩反而临到外邦人，要激起他们嫉妒的心。如果他们的过犯成为世界的富足，他们的缺乏成为外邦人的富足，更何况他们全数得救呢？我对你们外邦人说，正因为我是外邦人的使徒，我敬重我的职分，希望可以激起我骨肉之亲的嫉妒，好救他们一些人。

然而，以色列的人数必多如海沙，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”，将来就在那里称他们为“永生上帝的儿子”。

那信奉虚无神明的人，丢弃自己的慈爱；

听啊，是我百姓呼救的声音从远地传来：“耶和华不是在锡安吗？锡安的王不是在其中吗？”“他们为什么以自己雕刻的偶像和外邦虚无的神明惹我发怒呢？”

以丘坛惹他发怒，以雕刻的偶像使他忌恨。

我恨恶那信奉虚无神明的人；我却倚靠耶和华。

他们用外邦神明惹上帝妒忌，以可憎之物惹他发怒。

他们如同畜牲，尽都愚昧。偶像的训诲算什么呢？偶像不过是木头，

外邦虚无的神明中有能降雨的吗？天能自降甘霖吗？耶和华—我们的上帝啊，不是你吗？我们要等候你，因为这一切都是你所造的。

我们要惹主的嫉恨吗？我们比他更强吗？

不过，你们是被拣选的一族，是君尊的祭司，是神圣的国度，是属上帝的子民，要使你们宣扬那召你们出黑暗入奇妙光明者的美德。“你们从前不是子民，现在却成了上帝的子民；从前未曾蒙怜悯，现在却蒙了怜悯。”

我一开始讲话，圣灵就降在他们身上，正像当初降在我们身上一样。

不可偏离去随从那没有益处、不能救人的虚无的神明，因为它们是虚无的。
