撒母耳记上 11

1 亚扪人的王拿辖上来，对着基列·雅比安营。雅比众人对拿辖说：“你与我们立约，我们就服事你。”

And he went up Nahash the Ammonite and he encamped on Jabesh Gilead and they said all [the] men of Jabesh to Nahash make to us a covenant and we will serve you.

2 亚扪人拿辖说：“你们若由我剜出你们各人的右眼，以此凌辱以色列众人，我就与你们立约。”

And he said to them Nahash the Ammonite by this I will make to you by gouging out of you every eye of [the] right [side] and I will make it a reproach on all Israel.

3 雅比的长老对他说：“求你宽容我们七日，等我们打发人往以色列的全境去；若没有人救我们，我们就出来归顺你。”

And they said to him [the] elders of Jabesh refrain to us seven days so let us send messengers in all [the] territory of Israel and if there not [is one who] delivers us and we will come out to you.

4 使者到了扫罗住的基比亚，将这话说给百姓听，百姓就都放声而哭。

And they came the messengers Gibeah of Saul and they spoke the words in [the] ears of the people and they lifted up all the people voice their and they wept.

5 扫罗正从田间赶牛回来，问说：“百姓为什么哭呢？”众人将雅比人的话告诉他。

And there! Saul [was] coming after the cattle from the field and he said Saul what? [is] to the people that they are weeping and they recounted to him [the] words of [the] men of Jabesh.

6 扫罗听见这话，就被 神的灵大大感动，甚是发怒。

And it rushed [the] spirit of God on Saul (just as heard he *Q(K)*) the words these and it burned anger his exceedingly.

7 他将一对牛切成块子，托付使者传送以色列的全境，说：“凡不出来跟随扫罗和撒母耳的，也必这样切开他的牛。”于是耶和华使百姓惧怕，他们就都出来，如同一人。

And he took a pair of ox[en] and he cut in pieces it and he sent [them] in all [the] territory of Israel by [the] hand of the messengers - saying [the one] who not he [is] coming out after Saul and after Samuel thus it will be done to ox[en] his and it fell [the] dread of Yahweh on the people and they came out like a man one.

8 扫罗在比色数点他们：以色列人有三十万，犹大人有三万。

And he mustered them at Bezek and they were [the] people of Israel three hundred thousand and [the] man of Judah [was] thirty thousand.

9 众人对那使者说：“你们要回复基列·雅比人说，明日太阳近午的时候，你们必得解救。”使者回去告诉雅比人，他们就欢喜了。

And they said to the messengers who had come thus you will say! to [the] man of Jabesh Gilead tomorrow it will belong to you deliverance (like [the] heat of *Q(K)*) the sun and they went the messengers and they told to [the] men of Jabesh and they were glad.

10 于是雅比人对亚扪人说：“明日我们出来归顺你们，你们可以随意待我们。”

And they said [the] men of Jabesh tomorrow will we go out to you and you will do to us according to all the good in view your.

11 第二日，扫罗将百姓分为三队，在晨更的时候入了亚扪人的营，击杀他们直到太阳近午，剩下的人都逃散，没有二人同在一处的。

And it was from [the] next day and he made Saul the people three companies and they went in [the] midst of the camp in [the] watch of the morning and they struck down Ammon until [the] heat of the day and it was those [who] remained and they were scattered and not they remained among them two together.

12 百姓对撒母耳说：“那说‘扫罗岂能管理我们’的是谁呢？可以将他交出来，我们好杀死他。”

And it said the people to Samuel who? [is] the [one who] said Saul will he reign? over us deliver up the men so we may put to death them.

13 扫罗说：“今日耶和华在以色列中施行拯救，所以不可杀人。”

And he said Saul not he will be put to death anyone on the day this for this day he has done Yahweh deliverance in Israel.

14 撒母耳对百姓说：“我们要往吉甲去，在那里立国。”

And he said Samuel to the people come so let us go Gilgal so we may renew there the kingship.

15 众百姓就到了吉甲那里，在耶和华面前立扫罗为王，又在耶和华面前献平安祭。扫罗和以色列众人大大欢喜。

And they went all the people Gilgal and they made king there Saul before Yahweh in Gilgal and they sacrificed there sacrifices peace offerings before Yahweh and he rejoiced there Saul and all [the] men of Israel up to muchness.
