Kings I 14
1 And when a certain day arrived, Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, and let us go over to Messab of the Philistines that is on the other side yonder; but he told not his father.
有一日，扫罗的儿子约拿单对拿他兵器的少年人说：“我们不如过到那边，到非利士人的防营那里去。”但他没有告诉父亲。
2 And Saul sat on the top of the hill under the pomegranate tree that is in Magdon, and there were with him about six hundred men.
扫罗在基比亚的尽边，坐在米矶 的石榴树下，跟随他的约有六百人。
3 And Achia son of Achitob, the brother of Jochabed the son of Phinees, the son of Heli, [was] the priest of God in Selom wearing an ephod: and the people knew not that Jonathan was gone.
在那里有亚希突的儿子亚希亚，穿着以弗得。（亚希突是以迦博的哥哥，非尼哈的儿子，以利的孙子。以利从前在示罗作耶和华的祭司。）约拿单去了，百姓却不知道。
4 And in the midst of the passage whereby Jonathan sought to pass over to the encampment of the Philistines, there was both a sharp rock on this side, and a sharp rock on the other side: the name of the one [was] Bases, and the name of the other Senna.
约拿单要从隘口过到非利士防营那里去。这隘口两边各有一个山峰：一名播薛，一名西尼；
5 The one way [was] northward to one coming to Machmas, and the other way [was] southward to one coming to Gabae.
一峰向北，与密抹相对，一峰向南，与迦巴相对。
6 And Jonathan said to the young man that bore his armor, Come, let us go over to Messab of these uncircumcised, if [perhaps] the Lord may do something for us; for the Lord is not straitened to save by many or by few.
约拿单对拿兵器的少年人说：“我们不如过到未受割礼人的防营那里去，或者耶和华为我们施展能力；因为耶和华使人得胜，不在乎人多人少。”
7 And his armor-bearer said to him, Do all that your heart inclines toward: behold, I [am] with you, my heart [is] as your heart.
拿兵器的对他说：“随你的心意行吧。你可以上去，我必跟随你，与你同心。”
8 And Jonathan said, Behold, we will go over to the men, and will come down suddenly upon them.
约拿单说：“我们要过到那些人那里去，使他们看见我们。
9 If they should say thus to us, Stand aloof there until we shall send you word; then we will stand still by ourselves, and will not go up against them.
他们若对我们说：‘你们站住，等我们到你们那里去’，我们就站住，不上他们那里去。
10 [But] if they should say thus to us, Come up to us; then will we go up, for the Lord has delivered them into our hands; this [shall be] a sign to us.
他们若说：‘你们上到我们这里来’，这话就是我们的证据；我们便上去，因为耶和华将他们交在我们手里了。”
11 And they both went in to Messab of the Philistines; and the Philistines said, Behold, the Hebrews come forth out of their Caves, where they had hidden themselves.
二人就使非利士的防兵看见。非利士人说：“希伯来人从所藏的洞穴里出来了！”
12 And the men of Messab answered Jonathan and his armor-bearer, and said, Come up to us, and we will show you a thing: and Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, Come up after me, for the Lord has delivered them into the hands of Israel.
防兵对约拿单和拿兵器的人说：“你们上到这里来，我们有一件事指示你们。”约拿单就对拿兵器的人说：“你跟随我上去，因为耶和华将他们交在以色列人手里了。”
13 And Jonathan went up on his hands and feet, and his armor-bearer with him; and they looked on the face of Jonathan, and he struck them, and his armor-bearer did strike [them] after him.
约拿单就爬上去，拿兵器的人跟随他。约拿单杀倒非利士人，拿兵器的人也随着杀他们。
14 And the first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor-bearer effected was twenty men, with darts and slings, and pebbles of the field.
约拿单和拿兵器的人起头所杀的约有二十人，都在一亩地的半犁沟之内。
15 And there was dismay in the camp, and in the field; and all the people in Messab, and the spoilers were amazed; and they would not act, and the land was terror-struck, and there was dismay from the lord.
于是在营中、在田野、在众民内都有战兢，防兵和掠兵也都战兢，地也震动，战兢之势甚大。
16 And the watchmen of Saul saw in Gabaa of Benjamin, and, behold, the army was thrown into confusion on every side.
在便雅悯的基比亚，扫罗的守望兵看见非利士的军众溃散，四围乱窜。
17 And Saul said to the people with him, Number yourselves now, and see who has gone out from you: and they numbered themselves, and behold, Jonathan and his armor-bearer were not found.
扫罗就对跟随他的民说：“你们查点查点，看从我们这里出去的是谁？”他们一查点，就知道约拿单和拿兵器的人没有在这里。
18 And Saul said to Achia, Bring the ephod; for he wore the ephod in that day before Israel.
那时 神的约柜在以色列人那里。扫罗对亚希亚说：“你将 神的约柜运了来。”
19 And it came to pass while Saul was speaking to the priest, that the sound in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase greatly; and Saul said to the priest, Withdraw your hands.
扫罗正与祭司说话的时候，非利士营中的喧嚷越发大了；扫罗就对祭司说：“停手吧！”
20 And Saul went up and all the people that were with him, and they come to the battle: and, behold, [every] man's sword was against his neighbor, a very great confusion.
扫罗和跟随他的人都聚集，来到战场，看见非利士人用刀互相击杀，大大惶乱。
21 And the servants who had been before with the Philistines, who had gone up to the army, turned themselves also to be with the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.
从前由四方来跟随非利士军的希伯来人现在也转过来，帮助跟随扫罗和约拿单的以色列人了。
22 And all the Israelites who were hidden in mount Ephraim heard also that the Philistines fled; and they also gather themselves after them to battle: and the Lord saved Israel in that day; and the war passed through Bamoth; and all the people with Saul were about ten thousand men.
那藏在以法莲山地的以色列人听说非利士人逃跑，就出来紧紧地追杀他们。
23 And the battle extended itself to every city in the mount Ephraim.
那日，耶和华使以色列人得胜，一直战到伯·亚文。
24 And Saul committed a great trespass of ignorance in that day, and he lays a curse on the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread before the evening; so I will avenge myself on my enemy: and none of the people tasted bread, though all the land was dining.
扫罗叫百姓起誓说，凡不等到晚上向敌人报完了仇吃什么的，必受咒诅。因此这日百姓没有吃什么，就极其困惫。
25 And Jaal was a wood abounding in swarms of bees on the face of the ground.
众民进入树林，见有蜜在地上。
26 And the people went into the place of the bees, and, behold, they continued speaking; and, behold, there was none that put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath of the Lord.
他们进了树林，见有蜜流下来，却没有人敢用手取蜜入口，因为他们怕那誓言。
27 And Jonathan had not heard when his father adjured the people; and he reached forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, an dipped it into the honeycomb, and returned his hand to his mouth, and his eyes recovered their sight.
约拿单没有听见他父亲叫百姓起誓，所以伸手中的杖，用杖头蘸在蜂房里，转手送入口内，眼睛就明亮了。
28 And one of the people answered and said, Your father solemnly adjured the people, saying, Cursed [is] the man who shall eat bread today. And the people were very faint,
百姓中有一人对他说：“你父亲曾叫百姓严严地起誓说，今日吃什么的，必受咒诅；因此百姓就疲乏了。”
29 and Jonathan knew it, and said, My father has destroyed the land: see how my eyes have received sight [now] that I have tasted a little of this honey.
约拿单说：“我父亲连累你们了。你看，我尝了这一点蜜，眼睛就明亮了。
30 Surely if the people had this day eaten freely of the spoils of their enemies which they found, the slaughter among the Philistines would have been greater.
今日百姓若任意吃了从仇敌所夺的物，击杀的非利士人岂不更多吗？”
31 And on that day he struck some of the Philistines in Machmas; and the people were very weary.
这日，以色列人击杀非利士人，从密抹直到亚雅 。百姓甚是疲乏，
32 And the people turned to the spoil; and the people took flocks, and herds, and calves, and killed them on the ground, and the people ate with the blood.
就急忙将所夺的牛羊和牛犊宰于地上，肉还带血就吃了。
33 And it was reported to Saul, saying, The people have sinned against the Lord, eating with the blood: and Saul said, Out of Getthaim roll a great stone to me hither.
有人告诉扫罗说：“百姓吃带血的肉，得罪耶和华了。”扫罗说：“你们有罪了，今日要将大石头滚到我这里来。”
34 And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and tell them to bring hither every one his calf, and every one his sheep: and let them kill it on this [stone] and sin not against the Lord in eating with the blood: and the people brought each one that which was in his hand, and they killed [them] there.
扫罗又说：“你们散在百姓中，对他们说，你们各人将牛羊牵到我这里来宰了吃，不可吃带血的肉得罪耶和华。”这夜，百姓就把牛羊牵到那里宰了。
35 And Saul built an altar there to the Lord: this was the first altar that Saul built to the Lord.
扫罗为耶和华筑了一座坛，这是他初次为耶和华筑的坛。
36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines this night, and let us plunder among them till the day break, and let us not leave a man among them. And they said, Do all that is good in your sight: and the priest said, let us draw near hither to God.
扫罗说：“我们不如夜里下去追赶非利士人，抢掠他们，直到天亮，不留他们一人。”众民说：“你看怎样好就去行吧！”祭司说：“我们先当亲近 神。”
37 And Saul enquired of God, If I go down after the Philistines, will you deliver them into the hands of Israel? And he answered him not in that day.
扫罗求问 神说：“我下去追赶非利士人可以不可以？你将他们交在以色列人手里不交？”这日 神没有回答他。
38 And Saul said, Bring hither all the chiefs of Israel, and know and see by whom this sin has been committed this day.
扫罗说：“你们百姓中的长老都上这里来，查明今日是谁犯了罪。
39 For as the Lord lives who has saved Israel, if answer should be against my son Jonathan, he shall surely die. And there was no one that answered out of all the people.
我指着救以色列—永生的耶和华起誓，就是我儿子约拿单犯了罪，他也必死。”但百姓中无一人回答他。
40 And he said to all the men of Israel, You shall be under subjection, and I an Jonathan my son will be under subjection: and the people said to Saul, Do that which is good in your sight.
扫罗就对以色列众人说：“你们站在一边，我与我儿子约拿单也站在一边。”百姓对扫罗说：“你看怎样好就去行吧！”
41 And Saul said, O Lord God of Israel, why have you not answered your servant this day? [is] the iniquity in me, or in Jonathan my son? Lord God of Israel, give clear [manifestations]; and if [the lot] should declare this, give, I pray you, to your people of Israel, give, I pray, holiness. And Jonathan and Saul are taken, and the people escaped.
扫罗祷告耶和华—以色列的 神说：“求你指示实情。”于是掣签掣出扫罗和约拿单来；百姓尽都无事。
42 And Saul said, Cast [lots] between me and my son Jonathan: whoever the Lord shall cause to be taken by lot, let him die: and the people said to Saul, This thing is not [to be done]: and Saul prevailed against the people, and they cast [lots] between him and Jonathan his son, and Jonathan is taken by lot.
扫罗说：“你们再掣签，看是我，是我儿子约拿单”，就掣出约拿单来。
43 And Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what you have done: and Jonathan told him, and said, I did indeed taste a little honey, with the end of my staff that was in my hand, and, behold! I [am to] die.
扫罗对约拿单说：“你告诉我，你做了什么事？”约拿单说：“我实在以手里的杖，用杖头蘸了一点蜜尝了一尝。这样我就死吗？”
44 And Saul said to him, God do so to me, and more also, you shall surely die today.
扫罗说：“约拿单哪，你定要死！若不然，愿 神重重地降罚与我。”
45 And the people said to Saul, Shall he that has wrought this great salvation in Israel be put to death this day? [As] the Lord lives, there shall not fall to the ground one of the hairs of his head; for the people of God have wrought successfully this day. And the people prayed for Jonathan in that day, and he died not.
百姓对扫罗说：“约拿单在以色列人中这样大行拯救，岂可使他死呢？断乎不可！我们指着永生的耶和华起誓，连他的一根头发也不可落地，因为他今日与 神一同做事。”于是百姓救约拿单免了死亡。
46 And Saul went up from following the Philistines; and the Philistines departed to their place.
扫罗回去，不追赶非利士人；非利士人也回本地去了。
47 And Saul received the kingdom, by lot he inherits the office [of ruling] over Israel: and he fought against all his enemies round about, against Moab, and against the children of Ammon, and against the children of Edom, and against Baethaeor, and against the king of Suba, and against the Philistines: wherever he turned, he was victorious.
扫罗执掌以色列的国权，常常攻击他四围的一切仇敌，就是摩押人、亚扪人、以东人，和琐巴诸王，并非利士人。他无论往何处去，都打败仇敌。
48 And he wrought valiantly, and struck Amalec, and rescued Israel out of the hand of them that trampled on him.
扫罗奋勇攻击亚玛力人，救了以色列人脱离抢掠他们之人的手。
49 And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Jessiu, and Melchisa: and [these were] the names of his two daughters, the name of the firstborn Merob, and the name of the second Melchol.
扫罗的儿子是约拿单、亦施韦、麦基舒亚。他的两个女儿：长女名米拉，次女名米甲。
50 And the name of his wife was Achinoom, the daughter of Achimaa: and the name of his captain of the host was Abenner, the son of Ner, son of a kinsman of Saul.
扫罗的妻名叫亚希暖，是亚希玛斯的女儿。扫罗的元帅名叫押尼珥，是尼珥的儿子；尼珥是扫罗的叔叔。
51 And Kis [was] the father of Saul, and Ner, the father of Abenezer, [was] son of Jamin, son of Abiel.
扫罗的父亲基士，押尼珥的父亲尼珥，都是亚别的儿子。
52 And the war was vehement against the Philistines all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man, and any valiant man, then he took them to himself.
扫罗平生常与非利士人大大争战。扫罗遇见有能力的人或勇士，都招募了来跟随他。
