1 Samuel 10
1 Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it upon his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the LORD has anointed you to be captain over his inheritance?
撒母耳拿瓶膏油倒在扫罗的头上，与他亲嘴，说：“这不是耶和华膏你作他产业的君吗？
2 When you are departed from me to day, then you shall find two men by Rachel's tomb in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say unto you, The asses which you went to seek are found: and, lo, your father has left the care of the asses, and sorrows for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
你今日与我离别之后，在便雅悯境内的泄撒，靠近拉结的坟墓，要遇见两个人。他们必对你说：‘你去找的那几头驴已经找着了。现在你父亲不为驴挂心，反为你担忧，说：我为儿子怎么才好呢？’
3 Then shall you go on forward from thence, and you shall come to the plain of Tabor, and there shall meet you three men going up to God to Bethel, one carrying three kids, and another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a bottle of wine:
你从那里往前行，到了他泊的橡树那里，必遇见三个往伯特利去拜 神的人：一个带着三只山羊羔，一个带着三个饼，一个带着一皮袋酒。
4 And they will salute you, and give you two loaves of bread; which you shall receive of their hands.
他们必问你安，给你两个饼，你就从他们手中接过来。
5 After that you shall come to the hill of God, where is the garrison of the Philistines: and it shall come to pass, when you are come thither to the city, that you shall meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery, and a timbrel, and a pipe, and a harp, before them; and they shall prophesy:
此后你到 神的山，在那里有非利士人的防兵。你到了城的时候，必遇见一班先知从邱坛下来，前面有鼓瑟的、击鼓的、吹笛的、弹琴的，他们都受感说话。
6 And the Spirit of the LORD will come upon you, and you shall prophesy with them, and shall be turned into another man.
耶和华的灵必大大感动你，你就与他们一同受感说话；你要变为新人。
7 And let it be, when these signs are come unto you, that you do as occasion serve you; for God is with you.
这兆头临到你，你就可以趁时而做，因为 神与你同在。
8 And you shall go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto you, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: seven days shall you tarry, till I come to you, and show you what you shall do.
你当在我以先下到吉甲，我也必下到那里献燔祭和平安祭。你要等候七日，等我到了那里，指示你当行的事。”
9 And it was so, that when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those signs came to pass that day.
扫罗转身离别撒母耳， 神就赐他一个新心。当日这一切兆头都应验了。
10 And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.
扫罗到了那山，有一班先知遇见他， 神的灵大大感动他，他就在先知中受感说话。
11 And it came to pass, when all that knew him in time past saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What is this that has come unto the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?
素来认识扫罗的，看见他和先知一同受感说话，就彼此说：“基士的儿子遇见什么了？扫罗也列在先知中吗？”
12 And one of the same place answered and said, But who is their father? Therefore it became a proverb, Is Saul also among the prophets?
那地方有一个人说：“这些人的父亲是谁呢？”此后有句俗语说：“扫罗也列在先知中吗？”
13 And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to the high place.
扫罗受感说话已毕，就上邱坛去了。
14 And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant, Where went all of you? And he said, To seek the asses: and when we saw that they were no where, we came to Samuel.
扫罗的叔叔问扫罗和他仆人说：“你们往哪里去了？”回答说：“找驴去了。我们见没有驴，就到了撒母耳那里。”
15 And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray you, what Samuel said unto you.
扫罗的叔叔说：“请将撒母耳向你们所说的话告诉我。”
16 And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, whereof Samuel spoke, he told him not.
扫罗对他叔叔说：“他明明地告诉我们驴已经找着了。”至于撒母耳所说的国事，扫罗却没有告诉叔叔。
17 And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpeh;
撒母耳将百姓招聚到米斯巴耶和华那里，
18 And said unto the children of Israel, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all kingdoms, and of them that oppressed you:
对他们说：“耶和华—以色列的 神如此说：‘我领你们以色列人出埃及，救你们脱离埃及人的手，又救你们脱离欺压你们各国之人的手。’
19 And all of you have this day rejected your God, who himself saved you out of all your adversities and your tribulations; and all of you have said unto him, Nay, but set a king over us. Now therefore present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes, and by your thousands.
你们今日却厌弃了救你们脱离一切灾难的 神，说：‘求你立一个王治理我们。’现在你们应当按着支派、宗族都站在耶和华面前。”
20 And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
于是，撒母耳使以色列众支派近前来掣签，就掣出便雅悯支派来；
21 When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was taken, and Saul the son of Kish was taken: and when they sought him, he could not be found.
又使便雅悯支派按着宗族近前来，就掣出玛特利族，从其中又掣出基士的儿子扫罗。众人寻找他却寻不着，
22 Therefore they enquired of the LORD further, if the man should yet come thither. And the LORD answered, Behold he has hid himself among the stuff.
就问耶和华说：“那人到这里来了没有？”耶和华说：“他藏在器具中了。”
23 And they ran and fetched him thence: and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
众人就跑去从那里领出他来。他站在百姓中间，身体比众民高过一头。
24 And Samuel said to all the people, See all of you him whom the LORD has chosen, that there is none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted, and said, God save the king.
撒母耳对众民说：“你们看耶和华所拣选的人，众民中有可比他的吗？”众民就大声欢呼说：“愿王万岁！”
25 Then Samuel told the people the manner of the kingdom, and wrote it in a book, and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
撒母耳将国法对百姓说明，又记在书上，放在耶和华面前，然后遣散众民，各回各家去了。
26 And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and there went with him a band of men, whose hearts God had touched.
扫罗往基比亚回家去，有 神感动的一群人跟随他。
27 But the children of Belial said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him, and brought no presents. But he held his peace.
但有些匪徒说：“这人怎能救我们呢？”就藐视他，没有送他礼物；扫罗却不理会。
