1 Samuel 18
1 And it came to pass, when he had ended speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
大卫对扫罗说完了话，约拿单的心与大卫的心深相契合。约拿单爱大卫，如同爱自己的性命。
2 And Saul took him that day, and would not let him return to his father's house.
那日扫罗留住大卫，不容他再回父家。
3 And Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
约拿单爱大卫如同爱自己的性命，就与他结盟。
4 And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his dress, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
约拿单从身上脱下外袍，给了大卫，又将战衣、刀、弓、腰带都给了他。
5 And David went forth; whithersoever Saul sent him he prospered; and Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
扫罗无论差遣大卫往何处去，他都做事精明。扫罗就立他作战士长，众百姓和扫罗的臣仆无不喜悦。
6 And it came to pass as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambours, with joy, and with triangles.
大卫打死了那非利士人，同众人回来的时候，妇女们从以色列各城里出来，欢欢喜喜，打鼓击磬，歌唱跳舞，迎接扫罗王。
7 And the women answered [one another] as they played, and said, Saul hath smitten his thousands, And David his ten thousands.
众妇女舞蹈唱和，说：“扫罗杀死千千，大卫杀死万万。”
8 And Saul was very wroth, and that saying was evil in his sight; and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, but to me they have ascribed the thousands; and [what] is there more for him but the kingdom?
扫罗甚发怒，不喜悦这话，就说：“将万万归大卫，千千归我，只剩下王位没有给他了。”
9 And Saul eyed David from that day and forward.
从这日起，扫罗就怒视大卫。
10 And it came to pass the next day that an evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house, but David played with his hand, as on other days; and the spear was in Saul's hand.
次日，从 神那里来的恶魔大大降在扫罗身上，他就在家中胡言乱语。大卫照常弹琴，扫罗手里拿着枪。
11 And Saul cast the spear, and thought, I will smite David and the wall. But David turned away from him twice.
扫罗把枪一抡，心里说，我要将大卫刺透，钉在墙上。大卫躲避他两次。
12 And Saul was afraid of David, because Jehovah was with him, and had departed from Saul.
扫罗惧怕大卫；因为耶和华离开自己，与大卫同在。
13 And Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
所以扫罗使大卫离开自己，立他为千夫长，他就领兵出入。
14 And David prospered in all his ways; and Jehovah was with him.
大卫做事无不精明，耶和华也与他同在。
15 And Saul saw that he prospered well, and he stood in awe of him.
扫罗见大卫做事精明，就甚怕他。
16 But all Israel and Judah loved David, for he went out and came in before them.
但以色列和犹大众人都爱大卫，因为他领他们出入。
17 And Saul said to David, Behold my eldest daughter Merab, her will I give thee to wife; only be thou valiant for me, and fight Jehovah's battles. But Saul thought, My hand shall not be upon him, but the hand of the Philistines shall be upon him.
扫罗对大卫说：“我将大女儿米拉给你为妻，只要你为我奋勇，为耶和华争战。”扫罗心里说：“我不好亲手害他，要借非利士人的手害他。”
18 And David said to Saul, Who am I? and what is my life, [or] my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?
大卫对扫罗说：“我是谁，我是什么出身，我父家在以色列中是何等的家，岂敢作王的女婿呢？”
19 And it came to pass at the time when Merab Saul's daughter should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.
扫罗的女儿米拉到了当给大卫的时候，扫罗却给了米何拉人亚得列为妻。
20 And Michal Saul's daughter loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing was right in his sight.
扫罗的次女米甲爱大卫。有人告诉扫罗，扫罗就喜悦。
21 And Saul said, I will give him her, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be upon him. And Saul said to David, Thou shalt this day be my son-in-law a second time.
扫罗心里说：“我将这女儿给大卫，作他的网罗，好借非利士人的手害他。”所以扫罗对大卫说：“你今日可以第二次作我的女婿。”
22 And Saul commanded his servants, Speak with David secretly, saying, Behold, the king has delight in thee, and all his servants love thee: now therefore be the king's son-in-law.
扫罗吩咐臣仆说：“你们暗中对大卫说：‘王喜悦你，王的臣仆也都喜爱你，所以你当作王的女婿。’”
23 And Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. And David said, Is it a light thing in your eyes to be the king's son-in-law, seeing that I am a poor man, and lightly esteemed?
扫罗的臣仆就照这话说给大卫听。大卫说：“你们以为作王的女婿是一件小事吗？我是贫穷卑微的人。”
24 And the servants of Saul told him, saying, On this manner did David speak.
扫罗的臣仆回奏说，大卫所说的如此如此。
25 And Saul said, Thus shall ye say to David: The king does not desire any dowry, but a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies. But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
扫罗说：“你们要对大卫这样说：‘王不要什么聘礼，只要一百非利士人的阳皮，好在王的仇敌身上报仇。’”扫罗的意思要使大卫丧在非利士人的手里。
26 And his servants told David these words; and the thing was right in David's sight to be the king's son-in-law. And the days were not expired,
扫罗的臣仆将这话告诉大卫，大卫就欢喜作王的女婿。日期还没有到，
27 when David arose and went, he and his men, and smote of the Philistines two hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they delivered them in full to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him Michal his daughter as wife.
大卫和跟随他的人起身前往，杀了二百非利士人，将阳皮满数交给王，为要作王的女婿。于是扫罗将女儿米甲给大卫为妻。
28 And Saul saw and knew that Jehovah was with David; and Michal Saul's daughter loved him.
扫罗见耶和华与大卫同在，又知道女儿米甲爱大卫，
29 And Saul was yet the more afraid of David; and Saul was David's enemy continually.
就更怕大卫，常作大卫的仇敌。
30 And the princes of the Philistines went forth; and it came to pass, whenever they went forth, that David succeeded better than all the servants of Saul; and his name was much esteemed.
每逢非利士军长出来打仗，大卫比扫罗的臣仆做事精明，因此他的名被人尊重。
