2 Samuel 1
1 After the death of Saul, when Dauid was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites and had beene two dayes in Ziklag,
扫罗死后，大卫击杀亚玛力人回来，在洗革拉住了两天。
2 Behold, a man came the third day out of the host from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth vpon his head: and when hee came to Dauid, he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.
第三天，有一人从扫罗的营里出来，衣服撕裂，头蒙灰尘，到大卫面前伏地叩拜。
3 Then Dauid saide vnto him, Whence commest thou? And he said vnto him, Out of the host of Israel I am escaped.
大卫问他说：“你从哪里来？”他说：“我从以色列的营里逃来。”
4 And Dauid saide vnto him, What is done? I pray thee, tell me. Then he said, that the people is fled from the battel, and many of the people are ouerthrowen, and dead, and also Saul and Ionathan his sonne are dead.
大卫又问他说：“事情怎样？请你告诉我。”他回答说：“百姓从阵上逃跑，也有许多人仆倒死亡；扫罗和他儿子约拿单也死了。”
5 And Dauid saide vnto the yong man that tolde it him, Howe knowest thou that Saul and Ionathan his sonne be dead?
大卫问报信的少年人说：“你怎么知道扫罗和他儿子约拿单死了呢？”
6 Then the yong man that tolde him, answered, As I came to mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned vpon his speare, and loe, the charets and horsemen followed hard after him.
报信的少年人说：“我偶然到基利波山，看见扫罗伏在自己枪上，有战车、马兵紧紧地追他。
7 And when he looked backe, he saw me, and called me. And I answered, Here am I.
他回头看见我，就呼叫我。我说：‘我在这里。’
8 And he said vnto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.
他问我说：‘你是什么人？’我说：‘我是亚玛力人。’
9 Then saide hee vnto me, I pray thee come vpon mee, and slay me: for anguish is come vpon me, because my life is yet whole in me.
他说：‘请你来，将我杀死；因为痛苦抓住我，我的生命尚存。’
10 So I came vpon him, and slewe him, and because I was sure that hee coulde not liue, after that hee had fallen, I tooke the crowne that was vpon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arme, and brought them hither vnto my lord.
我准知他仆倒必不能活，就去将他杀死，把他头上的冠冕、臂上的镯子拿到我主这里。”
11 Then Dauid tooke hold on his clothes, and rent them, and likewise al the men that were with him.
大卫就撕裂衣服，跟随他的人也是如此，
12 And they mourned and wept, and fasted vntil euen, for Saul and for Ionathan his sonne, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel, because they were slaine with the sword.
而且悲哀哭号，禁食到晚上，是因扫罗和他儿子约拿单，并耶和华的民以色列家的人，倒在刀下。
13 Afterward Dauid saide vnto the yong man that tolde it him, Whence art thou? And hee answered, I am the sonne of a stranger an Amalekite.
大卫问报信的少年人说：“你是哪里的人？”他说：“我是亚玛力客人的儿子。”
14 And Dauid said vnto him, How wast thou not afrayd, to put forth thine hand to destroy the Anoynted of the Lord?
大卫说：“你伸手杀害耶和华的受膏者，怎么不畏惧呢？”
15 Then Dauid called one of his yong men, and said, Goe neere, and fall vpon him. And hee smote him that he dyed.
大卫叫了一个少年人来，说：“你去杀他吧！”
16 Then said Dauid vnto him, Thy blood be vpon thine owne head: for thine owne mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I haue slaine the Lords Anoynted.
大卫对他说：“你流人血的罪归到自己的头上，因为你亲口作见证说：‘我杀了耶和华的受膏者。’”少年人就把他杀了。
17 Then Dauid mourned with this lamentation ouer Saul, and ouer Ionathan his sonne,
大卫作哀歌，吊扫罗和他儿子约拿单，
18 (Also he bade them teach the children of Iudah to shoote, as it is written in the booke of Iasher)
且吩咐将这歌教导犹大人。这歌名叫“弓歌”，写在雅煞珥书上。
19 O noble Israel, hee is slane vpon thy hie places: how are the mightie ouerthrowen!
歌中说：以色列啊， 你尊荣者在山上被杀！ 大英雄何竟死亡！
20 Tell it not in Gath, nor publish it in the streetes of Ashkelon, lest the daughters of the Philistims reioyce, lest the daughters of the vncircumcised triumph.
不要在迦特报告； 不要在亚实基伦街上传扬； 免得非利士的女子欢乐； 免得未受割礼之人的女子矜夸。
21 Ye mountaines of Gilboa, vpon you be neither dewe nor raine, nor be there fieldes of offrings: for there the shielde of the mightie is cast downe, the shielde of Saul, as though he had not bene anointed with oyle.
基利波山哪，愿你那里没有雨露！ 愿你田地无土产可作供物！ 因为英雄的盾牌在那里被污丢弃； 扫罗的盾牌仿佛未曾抹油。
22 The bow of Ionathan neuer turned backe, neither did the sword of Saul returne emptie from the blood of the slaine, and from the fatte of the mightie.
约拿单的弓箭非流敌人的血不退缩； 扫罗的刀剑非剖勇士的油不收回。
23 Saul and Ionathan were louely and pleasant in their liues, and in their deaths they were not deuided: they were swifter then eagles, they were stronger then lions.
扫罗和约拿单— 活时相悦相爱，死时也不分离 —他们比鹰更快，比狮子还强。
24 Yee daughters of Israel, weepe for Saul, which clothed you in skarlet, with pleasures, and hanged ornaments of gold vpon your apparel.
以色列的女子啊，当为扫罗哭号！ 他曾使你们穿朱红色的美衣， 使你们衣服有黄金的妆饰。
25 Howe were the mightie slaine in the mids of the battel! O Ionathan, thou wast slaine in thine hie places.
英雄何竟在阵上仆倒！ 约拿单何竟在山上被杀！
26 Wo is me for thee, my brother Ionathan: very kinde hast thou bene vnto me: thy loue to me was wonderfull, passing the loue of women:
我兄约拿单哪，我为你悲伤！ 我甚喜悦你！ 你向我发的爱情奇妙非常， 过于妇女的爱情。
27 howe are the mightie ouerthrowen, and the weapons of warre destroyed!
英雄何竟仆倒！ 战具何竟灭没！
