撒母耳記上 21
1 達味去諾布，到了阿希肋客那裏；阿希默肋客戰戰兢兢出來迎接達味，問他說：「為什麼你一個人來，沒有人隨從你﹖」
And he went David Nob towards to Ahimelech the priest and he trembled Ahimelech to meet David and he said to him why? [are] you to alone you and [is] anyone there not with you.
2 達味回答阿希默肋客說：「君王今天吩咐我一件事，曾對說：我派你，吩咐你去作的事，別叫任何人知道。我已經和我的僮僕約定了某處見面。
And he said David to Ahimelech the priest the king he commanded me a matter and he said to me anyone may not he know anything the matter which I [am] sending you and which I have commanded you and the young men I have directed to a place of a certain one a certain one.
3 現今，你手中若有五個餅，請給我，或給我別的什麼東西」。
And therefore what? [is] there under hand your five bread[s] give! in hand my or that [which] may be found.
4 司祭回答達味說：「我手中沒有普通餅，只有聖餅；但是你的僮僕們戒了女色沒有﹖」
And he answered the priest David and he said there not [is] bread of profaneness to under hand my that except [is] bread of holiness there if they have kept themselves the young men only from a woman.
5 達味回答司祭說：「當然，我們戒絕了女色；我出征時，僮僕們常是身潔的；這次上路雖為了俗務，但今天他們仍是身身的」。
And he answered David the priest and he said to him that except woman [is] withheld to us as yesterday three days ago when go out I and they were [the] vessels of the young men holiness and it [is] a journey of profaneness and indeed? for this day it is holy in the vessel.
6 於是司祭就將聖餅給了他，因為那天在沒有別的餅，只有供餅；即由上主面前撤下來，為另換上新的供餅。
And he gave to him the priest a holy thing for not it was there bread that except [the] bread of the presence which had been removed from to before Yahweh to put bread of heat on [the] day was taken away it.
7 那一天，在那裏正有撒烏耳的一個臣僕留在上主面前，名叫多厄格，厄東人，是撒烏耳的侍衛長。──
And there a man one of [the] servants of Saul on the day that [was] detained before Yahweh and name his [was] Doeg the Edomite [the] mighty [one] of the shepherds who [belonged] to Saul.
8 達味又對阿希默肋客說：「你手邊有沒有一支槍或一把刀﹖我的刀和我的武器，沒有帶在手邊，因為君王的事很緊急」。
And he said David to Ahimelech and where? there here under hand your [is] a spear or a sword for both sword my as well as weapons my not I took in hand my for it was [the] matter of the king urgent.
9 司祭答說：「有你在厄拉谷中所殺的那培肋舍特人哥肋雅的刀。看，用外衣包著，放在「厄弗得」後面；假使你願意拿去，就拿去吧! 因為在這裏沒有別的」。達味答說：「沒有像這把刀更好的了! 就請你給我吧! 」
And he said the priest [the] sword of Goliath the Philistine whom you struck down - in [the] valley of Elah here! it [is] wrapped in the cloak behind the ephod if it you will take for yourself take [it] for there not [is] another except it in this [place] and he said David there not [is] like it give it to me.
10 那一天，達味起身，逃避了撒烏耳的面，到了加特王阿基士前。
And he arose David and he fled on the day that from before Saul and he went to Achish [the] king of Gath.
11 阿基士的臣僕對王說：「這不是國王達味嗎﹖在歌舞中所歌頌的：撒烏耳殺了一千，達味殺了一萬，不就是他嗎﹖」
And they said [the] servants of Achish to him ¿ not [is] this David [the] king of the land ¿ not of this [one] do people sing with dances saying he has struck down Saul (thousands his *Q(K)*) and David (ten thousands his. *Q(K)*)
12 達味細想這些話，在加特王阿基士前感到十分恐懼。
And he put David the words these in heart his and he was afraid exceedingly of Achish [the] king of Gath.
13 於是便在他們面前裝作傻子，在他們中佯作瘋子，亂敲門戶，鬍鬚上流著唾沬。
And he changed it sense his in view their and he pretended to be mad in hand their (and he made marks *Q(k)*) on [the] doors of the gate and he made to flow down spittle his to beard his.
14 阿基士對臣僕說：「他們看，這是個瘋子，為什麼送他到我這裏來﹖
And he said Achish to servants his there! you see a man behaving like a madman why? do you bring him to me.
15 難道我缺乏瘋子，你們竟領他到這裏來，向我發瘋。這樣的人豈能進入我的宮室﹖」
Lacking of madmen [am] I? that you have brought this one to behave like a madman on me ¿ this one will he come into house my.
