< 列王纪下 8 >

1 以利沙曾对所救活之子的那妇人说:“你和你的全家要起身往你可住的地方去住,因为耶和华命饥荒降在这地七年。”
And Elisha spake unto the woman whose son he had revived, saying, 'Rise and go, thou and thy household, and sojourn where thou dost sojourn, for Jehovah hath called for a famine, and also, it is coming unto the land seven years.'
2 妇人就起身,照神人的话带着全家往非利士地去,住了七年。
And the woman riseth, and doth according to the word of the man of God, and goeth, she and her household, and sojourneth in the land of the Philistines seven years.
3 七年完了,那妇人从非利士地回来,就出去为自己的房屋田地哀告王。
And it cometh to pass, at the end of seven years, that the woman turneth back from the land of the Philistines, and goeth out to cry unto the king, for her house, and for her field.
4 那时王正与神人的仆人基哈西说:“请你将以利沙所行的一切大事告诉我。”
And the king is speaking unto Gehazi, servant of the man of God, saying, 'Recount, I pray thee, to me, the whole of the great things that Elisha hath done.'
5 基哈西告诉王以利沙如何使死人复活,恰巧以利沙所救活、她儿子的那妇人为自己的房屋田地来哀告王。基哈西说:“我主我王,这就是那妇人,这是她的儿子,就是以利沙所救活的。”
And it cometh to pass, he is recounting to the king how he had revived the dead, and lo, the woman whose son he had revived is crying unto the king, for her house and for her field, and Gehazi saith, 'My lord, O king, this [is] the woman, and this her son, whom Elisha revived.'
6 王问那妇人,她就把那事告诉王。于是王为她派一个太监,说:“凡属这妇人的都还给她,自从她离开本地直到今日,她田地的出产也都还给她。”
And the king asketh at the woman, and she recounteth to him, and the king appointeth to her a certain eunuch, saying, 'Give back all that she hath, and all the increase of the field from the day of her leaving the land even till now.'
7 以利沙来到大马士革,亚兰王便·哈达正患病。有人告诉王说:“神人来到这里了。”
And Elisha cometh in to Damascus, and Ben-Hadad king of Aram is sick, and it is declared to him, saying, 'The man of God hath come hither.'
8 王就吩咐哈薛说:“你带着礼物去见神人,托他求问耶和华,我这病能好不能好?”
And the king saith unto Hazael, 'Take in thy hand a present, and go to meet the man of God, and thou hast sought Jehovah by him, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'
9 于是哈薛用四十个骆驼,驮着大马士革的各样美物为礼物,去见以利沙。到了他那里,站在他面前,说:“你儿子亚兰王便·哈达打发我来见你,他问说:‘我这病能好不能好?’”
And Hazael goeth to meet him, and taketh a present in his hand, even of every good thing of Damascus, a burden of forty camels, and he cometh in and standeth before him, and saith, 'Thy son Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, hath sent me unto thee, saying, Do I revive from this sickness?'
10 以利沙对哈薛说:“你回去告诉他说,这病必能好;但耶和华指示我,他必要死。”
And Elisha saith unto him, 'Go, say, Thou dost certainly not revive, seeing Jehovah hath shewed me that he doth surely die.'
11 神人定睛看着哈薛,甚至他惭愧。神人就哭了;
And he setteth his face, yea, he setteth [it] till he is ashamed, and the man of God weepeth.
12 哈薛说:“我主为什么哭?”回答说:“因为我知道你必苦害以色列人,用火焚烧他们的保障,用刀杀死他们的壮丁,摔死他们的婴孩,剖开他们的孕妇。”
And Hazael saith, 'Wherefore is my lord weeping?' and he saith, 'Because I have known the evil that thou dost to the sons of Israel — their fenced places thou dost send into fire, and their young men with sword thou dost slay, and their sucklings thou dost dash to pieces, and their pregnant women thou dost rip up.'
13 哈薛说:“你仆人算什么,不过是一条狗,焉能行这大事呢?”以利沙回答说:“耶和华指示我,你必作亚兰王。”
And Hazael saith, 'But what, [is] thy servant the dog, that he doth this great thing?' And Elisha saith, 'Jehovah hath shewed me thee — king of Aram.'
14 哈薛离开以利沙,回去见他的主人。主人问他说:“以利沙对你说什么?”回答说:“他告诉我你必能好。”
And he goeth from Elisha, and cometh in unto his lord, and he saith unto him, 'What said Elisha to thee?' and he saith, 'He said to me, Thou dost certainly recover.'
15 次日,哈薛拿被窝浸在水中,蒙住王的脸,王就死了。于是哈薛篡了他的位。
And it cometh to pass on the morrow, that he taketh the coarse cloth, and dippeth in water, and spreadeth on his face, and he dieth, and Hazael reigneth in his stead.
16 以色列王亚哈的儿子约兰第五年,犹大王约沙法还在位的时候,约沙法的儿子约兰登基作了犹大王。
And in the fifth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel — and Jehoshaphat [is] king of Judah — hath Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah reigned;
17 约兰登基的时候年三十二岁,在耶路撒冷作王八年。
a son of thirty and two years was he in his reigning, and eight years he hath reigned in Jerusalem.
18 他行以色列诸王所行的,与亚哈家一样;因为他娶了亚哈的女儿为妻,行耶和华眼中看为恶的事。
And he walketh in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab, for a daughter of Ahab was to him for a wife, and he doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah,
19 耶和华却因他仆人大卫的缘故,仍不肯灭绝犹大,照他所应许大卫的话,永远赐灯光与他的子孙。
and Jehovah was not willing to destroy Judah, for the sake of David his servant, as He said to him, to give to him a lamp — to his sons all the days.
20 约兰年间,以东人背叛犹大,脱离他的权下,自己立王。
In his days hath Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and they cause a king to reign over them,
21 约兰率领所有的战车往撒益去,夜间起来,攻打围困他的以东人和车兵长;犹大兵就逃跑,各回各家去了。
and Joram passeth over to Zair, and all the chariots with him, and he himself hath risen by night, and smiteth Edom, that is coming round about unto him, and the heads of the chariots, and the people fleeth to its tents;
22 这样,以东人背叛犹大,脱离他的权下,直到今日。那时立拿人也背叛了。
and Edom revolteth from under the hand of Judah till this day; then doth Libnah revolt at that time.
23 约兰其余的事,凡他所行的,都写在犹大列王记上。
And the rest of the matters of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written on the book of the Chronicles of the kings of Judah?
24 约兰与他列祖同睡,葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子亚哈谢接续他作王。
And Joram lieth with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David, and reign doth Ahaziah his son in his stead.
25 以色列王亚哈的儿子约兰十二年,犹大王约兰的儿子亚哈谢登基。
In the twelfth year of Joram son of Ahab king of Israel reigned hath Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah;
26 他登基的时候年二十二岁,在耶路撒冷作王一年。他母亲名叫亚她利雅,是以色列王暗利的孙女。
a son of twenty and two years [is] Ahaziah in his reigning, and one year he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Athaliah daughter of Omri king of Israel,
27 亚哈谢效法亚哈家行耶和华眼中看为恶的事,与亚哈家一样,因为他是亚哈家的女婿。
and he walketh in the way of the house of Ahab, and doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, like the house of Ahab, for he [is] son-in-law of the house of Ahab.
28 他与亚哈的儿子约兰同往基列的拉末去,与亚兰王哈薛争战。亚兰人打伤了约兰,
And he goeth with Joram son of Ahab to battle with Hazael king of Aram in Ramoth-Gilead, and the Aramaeans smite Joram,
29 约兰王回到耶斯列,医治在拉末与亚兰王哈薛打仗的时候所受的伤。犹大王约兰的儿子亚哈谢因为亚哈的儿子约兰病了,就下到耶斯列看望他。
and Joram the king turneth back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds with which the Arameans smite him in Ramah, in his fighting with Hazael king of Aram, and Ahaziah son of Jehoram king of Judah hath gone down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, for he is sick.
