撒母耳記下 15
1 此後，押沙龍為自己預備車馬，又派五十人在他前頭奔走。
And it was from after thus and he acquired for himself Absalom a chariot and horses and fifty man [who] ran before him.
2 押沙龍常常早晨起來，站在城門的道旁，凡有爭訟要去求王判斷的，押沙龍就叫他過來，問他說：「你是哪一城的人？」回答說：「僕人是以色列某支派的人。」
And he rose early Absalom and he stood at [the] side of [the] road of the gate and it was every person whom it belonged to him a case at law to come to the king for judgment and he called out Absalom to him and he said where? from this city [are] you and he said [is] from one of [the] tribes of Israel servant your.
3 押沙龍對他說：「你的事有情有理，無奈王沒有委人聽你伸訴。」
And he said to him Absalom see matter your [are] good and right and [one who] hears not [belongs] to you from with the king.
4 押沙龍又說：「恨不得我作國中的士師！凡有爭訟求審判的到我這裏來，我必秉公判斷。」
And he said Absalom who? will he make me a judge in the land and to me he will come every person whom it belongs to him a case at law and a judgment and I will do justice him.
5 若有人近前來要拜押沙龍，押沙龍就伸手拉住他，與他親嘴。
And it was when drew near anyone to bow down to him and he stretched out hand his and he took hold of him and he kissed him.
6 以色列人中，凡去見王求判斷的，押沙龍都是如此待他們。這樣，押沙龍暗中得了以色列人的心。
And he did Absalom according to the manner this to all Israel who they came for judgment to the king and he stole Absalom [the] heart of [the] men of Israel.
7 滿了四十年，押沙龍對王說：「求你准我往希伯崙去，還我向耶和華所許的願。
And it was from [the] end of forty year[s] and he said Absalom to the king let me go please so I may pay vow my which I vowed to Yahweh in Hebron.
8 因為僕人住在亞蘭的基述，曾許願說：『耶和華若使我再回耶路撒冷，我必事奉他。』」
For a vow he vowed servant your when dwelt I at Geshur in Aram saying if (certainly *Q(K)*) he will bring back me Yahweh Jerusalem and I will serve Yahweh (in Hebron. *X*)
9 王說：「你平平安安地去吧！」押沙龍就起身，往希伯崙去了。
And he said to him the king go in peace and he arose and he went Hebron towards.
10 押沙龍打發探子走遍以色列各支派，說：「你們一聽見角聲就說：『押沙龍在希伯崙作王了！』」
And he sent Absalom spies in all [the] tribes of Israel saying when hear you [the] sound of the ram's horn and you will say he has become king Absalom in Hebron.
11 押沙龍在耶路撒冷請了二百人與他同去，都是誠誠實實去的，並不知道其中的真情。
And with Absalom they went two hundred man from Jerusalem [those who] were invited and [those who] were going to innocence their and not they knew any thing.
12 押沙龍獻祭的時候，打發人去將大衛的謀士、基羅人亞希多弗從他本城請了來。於是叛逆的勢派甚大；因為隨從押沙龍的人民，日漸增多。
And he sent Absalom Ahithophel the Gilonite [the] counselor of David from city his from Giloh when sacrificed he the sacrifices and it was the conspiracy strong and the people [was] going and numerous with Absalom.
13 有人報告大衛說：「以色列人的心都歸向押沙龍了！」
And he came the messenger to David saying it is [the] heart of [the] man of Israel after Absalom.
14 大衛就對耶路撒冷跟隨他的臣僕說：「我們要起來逃走，不然都不能躲避押沙龍了；要速速地去，恐怕他忽然來到，加害於我們，用刀殺盡合城的人。」
And he said David to all servants his who [were] with him in Jerusalem arise so let us flee for not it will belong to us an escape from before Absalom hurry to go lest he should hurry and he will overtake us and he will thrust on us calamity and he will strike the city to [the] mouth of [the] sword.
15 王的臣僕對王說：「我主我王所定的，僕人都願遵行。」
And they said [the] servants of the king to the king according to all that he will choose lord my the king here! [are] servants your.
16 於是王帶着全家的人出去了，但留下十個妃嬪看守宮殿。
And he went out the king and all household his at feet his and he left the king ten women concubines to keep the house.
17 王出去，眾民都跟隨他，到伯墨哈，就住下了。
And he went out the king and all the people at feet his and they stood [the] house of the distance.
18 王的臣僕都在他面前過去。基利提人、比利提人，就是從迦特跟隨王來的六百人，也都在他面前過去。
And all servants his [were] passing by at side his and all the Kerethite[s] and all the Pelethite[s] and all the Gittites six hundred man who they had come at foot his from Gath [were] passing by at [the] face of the king.
19 王對迦特人以太說：「你是外邦逃來的人，為甚麼與我們同去呢？你可以回去與新王同住，或者回你本地去吧！
And he said the king to Ittai the Gittite why? will you go also you with us return and dwell with the king for [are] a foreigner you and also [are] an exile you to place your.
20 你來的日子不多，我今日怎好叫你與我們一同飄流、沒有一定的住處呢？你不如帶你的弟兄回去吧！願耶和華用慈愛誠實待你。」
[was] yesterday - Coming you and this day (will I make wander? you *Q(K)*) with us to go and I [am] going to where I [am] going return and take back brothers your [be] with you covenant loyalty and truth.
21 以太對王說：「我指着永生的耶和華起誓，又敢在王面前起誓：無論生死，王在哪裏，僕人也必在那裏。」
And he answered Ittai the king and he said [by] [the] life of Yahweh and [by] [the] life of lord my the king that except in [the] place where he will be there - lord my the king whether for death or for life for there he will be servant your.
22 大衛對以太說：「你前去過河吧！」於是迦特人以太帶着跟隨他的人和所有的婦人孩子，就都過去了。
And he said David to Ittai come and pass on and he passed on Ittai the Gittite and all men his and all the little one[s] who [were] with him.
23 本地的人都放聲大哭。眾民盡都過去，王也過了汲淪溪；眾民往曠野去了。
And all the land [were] weeping a voice great and all the people [were] passing by and the king [was] passing in [the] wadi of Kidron and all the people [were] passing on on [the] face of [the] road the wilderness.
24 撒督和抬上帝約櫃的利未人也一同來了，將上帝的約櫃放下。亞比亞他上來，等着眾民從城裏出來過去。
And there! also Zadok and all the Levites with him [were] carrying [the] ark of [the] covenant of God and they set down [the] ark of God and he went up Abiathar until was finished all the people to pass out from the city.
25 王對撒督說：「你將上帝的約櫃抬回城去。我若在耶和華眼前蒙恩，他必使我回來，再見約櫃和他的居所。
And he said the king to Zadok take back [the] ark of God the city if I will find favor in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he will bring back me and he will show me it and habitation his.
26 倘若他說：『我不喜悅你』，看哪，我在這裏，願他憑自己的意旨待我！」
And if thus he will say not I delight in you here [am] I let him do to me just as it is good in view his.
27 王又對祭司撒督說：「你不是先見嗎？你可以安然回城；你兒子亞希瑪斯和亞比亞他的兒子約拿單都可以與你同去。
And he said the king to Zadok the priest ¿ a seer [are] you return! the city in peace and Ahimaaz son your and Jonathan [the] son of Abiathar [the] two sons your with you.
28 我在曠野的渡口那裏等你們報信給我。」
See I [will] delay (in [the] desert plains of *Q(K)*) the wilderness until comes word from with you to tell to me.
29 於是撒督和亞比亞他將上帝的約櫃抬回耶路撒冷，他們就住在那裏。
And he took back Zadok and Abiathar [the] ark of God Jerusalem and they remained there.
30 大衛蒙頭赤腳上橄欖山，一面上一面哭。跟隨他的人也都蒙頭哭着上去；
And David [was] going up on [the] ascent of the olive trees going up - and weeping and head of him [was] covered and he [was] walking barefoot and all the people which [was] with him they covered each head his and they went up continuously and wept.
31 有人告訴大衛說：「亞希多弗也在叛黨之中，隨從押沙龍。」大衛禱告說：「耶和華啊，求你使亞希多弗的計謀變為愚拙！」
And David someone told saying Ahithophel [is] among the conspirators with Absalom and he said David make foolish please [the] counsel of Ahithophel O Yahweh.
32 大衛到了山頂、敬拜上帝的地方，見亞基人戶篩，衣服撕裂，頭蒙灰塵來迎接他。
And he was David coming to the top where he bowed down there to God and there! to meet him Hushai the Arkite [was] torn tunic his and earth [was] on head his.
33 大衛對他說：「你若與我同去，必累贅我；
And he said to him David if you pass over with me and you will become on me a burden.
34 你若回城去，對押沙龍說：『王啊，我願作你的僕人；我向來作你父親的僕人，現在我也照樣作你的僕人。』這樣，你就可以為我破壞亞希多弗的計謀。
And if the city you will return and you will say to Absalom servant your I O king I will be [was] [the] servant of father your I from then and now I [will be] servant your and you will frustrate for me [the] counsel of Ahithophel.
35 祭司撒督和亞比亞他豈不都在那裏嗎？你在王宮裏聽見甚麼，就要告訴祭司撒督和亞比亞他。
And ¿ not with you there [are] Zadok and Abiathar the priests and it will be every word which you will hear from [the] house of the king you will tell to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests.
36 撒督的兒子亞希瑪斯，亞比亞他的兒子約拿單，也都在那裏。凡你們所聽見的可以託這二人來報告我。」
There! there [are] with them [the] two sons their Ahimaaz of Zadok and Jonathan of Abiathar and you will send by hand their to me every word which you will hear.
37 於是，大衛的朋友戶篩進了城；押沙龍也進了耶路撒冷。
And he came Hushai [the] friend of David the city and Absalom he came Jerusalem.
