< 1 Kings 16 >
1 And a word of YHWH is to Jehu son of Hanani, against Baasha, saying,
那時,有上主的話傳於哈納尼的兒子耶胡,斥責巴厄沙說:「
2 “Because that I have raised you up out of the dust, and appoint you leader over My people Israel, and you walk in the way of Jeroboam, and cause My people Israel to sin—to provoke Me to anger with their sins;
我由塵埃中提拔了你,立你做我民以色列的領袖,你卻走了雅洛貝罕的路,使我民以色列犯罪,激怒我;
3 behold, I am putting away the posterity of Baasha, even the posterity of his house, and have given up your house as the house of Jeroboam son of Nebat;
我現在,我要掃除巴厄沙和他的家族,使他的家如同乃巴特的兒子雅洛貝罕的一家一樣:
4 the dogs eat him who dies of Baasha in a city, and [the] bird of the heavens eats him who dies of his in a field.”
凡屬巴厄沙家的人,死在城中的,必為狗吞食,死在田野間的,必為空中的飛鳥啄食。」
5 And the rest of the matters of Baasha, and that which he did, and his might, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
巴厄沙其餘的事蹟,他所行的事和他的功績,都記載在以色列列王實錄上。
6 And Baasha lies with his fathers, and is buried in Tirzah, and his son Elah reigns in his stead.
巴厄沙與列祖同眠,葬在提爾匝;他的兒子厄拉繼位為王。
7 And also by the hand of Jehu son of Hanani the prophet a word of YHWH has been concerning Baasha, and concerning his house, and concerning all the evil that he did in the eyes of YHWH to provoke Him to anger with the work of his hands, to be like the house of Jeroboam, and concerning that for which he struck him.
上主藉哈納尼的兒子,先知耶胡傳話斥責巴厄沙和他的家族,是因為他行了許多上主眼中視為惡的事,以自己的作為激怒了上主,如同雅洛貝罕的家一樣;又因為他殺了雅洛貝罕全家。厄拉為以色列王
8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa king of Judah, Elah son of Baasha has reigned over Israel in Tirzah, two years;
猷大王阿撒二十六年,巴厄沙的兒子厄拉在提爾匝登極作以色列王,在位凡二年。
9 and his servant Zimri conspires against him (head of the half of the chariots) and he [is] in Tirzah drinking—a drunkard in the house of Arza, who [is] over the house in Tirzah.
他的臣僕,即率領他半數戰車的隊長,齊默黎結黨背叛了他。當他在提爾匝,他的家在阿爾匝家喝醉時,
10 And Zimri comes in and strikes him, and puts him to death, in the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigns in his stead;
齊默黎衝入,擊殺了他,篡奪了他的王位,時在猶大王阿撒二十七年。
11 and it comes to pass in his reigning, at his sitting on his throne, he has struck the whole house of Baasha; he has not left to him any sitting on the wall, and of his redeemers, and of his friends.
齊默黎一登極,立刻屠殺了巴厄沙全家,沒有給他留下一個男子,連他的親屬朋友都殺了。
12 And Zimri destroys the whole house of Baasha, according to the word of YHWH that He spoke concerning Baasha, by the hand of Jehu the prophet,
齊默黎這樣毀滅了巴厄沙全家,應驗了上主藉先知耶胡斥責巴厄沙所說的話。
13 concerning all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of his son Elah, that they sinned, and that they caused Israel to sin to provoke YHWH, God of Israel, with their vanities.
這是因為巴厄沙和他的兒子厄拉所犯的一切罪,即引以色列陷於罪惡,因他們製造了虛無偶像,激怒了上主,以色列的天主。
14 And the rest of the matters of Elah and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
厄拉其餘的事蹟,他的一切作為,都記載在以色列列王實錄上。齊默黎為以色列王
15 In the twenty-seventh year of Asa king of Judah, Zimri has reigned seven days in Tirzah; and the people are encamping against Gibbethon, which [belonged] to the Philistines;
猶大王阿撒二十七年,齊默黎王提爾匝作王僅七天。當時人民正在圍攻培肋舍特人的基貝通,
16 and the people who are encamping hear, saying, “Zimri has conspired, and also has struck the king”; and all Israel causes Omri head of the host to reign over Israel on that day in the camp.
消息傳到營中說:齊默黎已經叛變,擊殺了君王,全以色列人當天即在營中,選立了軍長敖默黎作以色列王。
17 And Omri goes up, and all Israel with him, from Gibbethon, and they lay siege to Tirzah.
敖默黎和與他在一起的全以色列人,從基貝通上去圍攻提爾匝。
18 And it comes to pass, at Zimri’s seeing that the city has been captured, that he comes into a high place of the house of the king, and burns the house of the king over himself with fire, and he dies,
齊默黎一見城已失陷,即走進王宮的城堡,縱火焚燒王宮,自焚而死。
19 for his sins that he sinned, to do evil in the eyes of YHWH, to walk in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin that he did, to cause Israel to sin;
這是因為他所犯的罪惡,行了上主視為惡的事,走了雅洛貝罕的路,並以自己所犯的罪,使以色列陷於罪惡。
20 and the rest of the matters of Zimri and his conspiracy that he made, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
齊默黎其餘的事蹟,暗殺叛變的事,都記載在以色列列王實錄。
21 Then the sons of Israel are parted into halves; half of the people have been after Tibni son of Ginath to cause him to reign, and the [other] half after Omri;
那時,以色列人民分裂為二:一半跟隨基納特的兒子提貝尼,要立他為王;一半跟隨敖默黎。
22 and the people that are after Omri are stronger than the people that are after Tibni son of Ginath, and Tibni dies, and Omri reigns.
跟隨敖默黎的人勝過了跟隨基納特的兒子提貝尼的人;提貝尼死後,敖默黎便作了王。敖默黎為以色列王
23 In the thirty-first year of Asa king of Judah, Omri has reigned over Israel twelve years; he has reigned in Tirzah six years,
猶大王阿撒三十一年,敖默黎登極作以色列王,在位凡十二年,其中六年在提爾匝。
24 and he buys the Mount of Samaria from Shemer with two talents of silver, and builds [on] the mountain, and calls the name of the city that he has built by the name of Shemer, lord of the hill—Samaria.
敖默黎用兩「塔冷通」銀子,由舍默爾手中買下了芍默龍山。他修建了這座山,依照山的原主舍默爾的名字,給他所建築的城起名叫「撒瑪黎雅。」
25 And Omri does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and does evil above all who [are] before him,
敖默黎行了上主視為惡的事,甚至比他以前的人更為邪惡。
26 and walks in all the way of Jeroboam son of Nebat, and in his sin that he caused Israel to sin, to provoke YHWH, God of Israel, with their vanities.
事事仿效乃巴特的兒子雅洛貝罕所走的路,犯了更使以色列陷於罪惡的罪,又敬拜邪神偶像,激怒上主,以色列的天主。
27 And the rest of the matters of Omri that he did and his might that he exercised, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
敖默黎其餘的事蹟,他的作為和功蹟,都記載在以色列列王實錄上。
28 And Omri lies with his fathers, and is buried in Samaria, and his son Ahab reigns in his stead.
敖默黎與列祖同眠,葬在撒瑪黎雅;他的兒子阿哈布繼位為王。阿哈布為以色列王
29 And Ahab son of Omri has reigned over Israel in the thirty-eighth year of Asa king of Judah, and Ahab son of Omri reigns over Israel in Samaria twenty-two years,
猶大王阿撒三十八年,敖默黎的兒子阿哈布登極作以色列王。敖默黎的兒子阿哈布在撒瑪黎雅作以色列王,凡二十二年。
30 and Ahab son of Omri does evil in the eyes of YHWH above all who [are] before him.
敖默黎的兒子阿哈布行了上主視為惡的事,甚於他以前的人。
31 And it comes to pass, as if it had been trivial—his walking in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat—that he takes a wife, Jezebel daughter of Ethba‘al, king of the Zidonians, and goes and serves Ba‘al, and bows himself to it,
他走了乃巴特的兒子雅洛貝罕犯罪的路,尚以為是小事,又娶了漆冬王厄特巴耳的女兒依則貝耳為妻,親自去服事敬拜巴耳,
32 and raises up an altar for Ba‘al in the house of the Ba‘al, which he built in Samaria;
在撒瑪黎雅為巴耳建築了一座廟宇,廟內為巴耳設立了一座祭壇。
33 and Ahab makes the Asherah, and Ahab adds to do so as to provoke YHWH, God of Israel, above all the kings of Israel who have been before him.
阿哈布又立了阿舍辣;阿哈布行事激怒上主,以色列的天主,尤甚於他以前的以色列王。
34 In his days Hiel the Beth-Elite has built Jericho; he laid its foundation with Abiram his firstborn, and he set up its doors with Segub his youngest, according to the word of YHWH that He spoke by the hand of Joshua son of Nun.
他在位的時候,貝特耳人希耳重建了耶里哥;奠基的時候,死了長子阿彼蘭;安門的時候,死了幼子色古布:這正應驗了上主藉農的兒子若蘇厄所說的話。
