1 Samuel 10
1 And Samuel takes the vial of the oil, and pours [it] on his head, and kisses him, and says, “Is it not because YHWH has appointed you over His inheritance for leader?
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 In your going from me today—then you have found two men by the grave of Rachel, in the border of Benjamin, at Zelzah, and they have said to you, The donkeys have been found which you have gone to seek; and behold, your father has left the matter of the donkeys, and has sorrowed for you, saying, What do 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 And you have passed on there, and beyond, and have come to the oak of Tabor, and three men going up to God to Beth-El have found you there, one carrying three kids, and one carrying three cakes of bread, and one 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 have asked of your welfare, and given two loaves to you, and you have received from their hand.
他们必问你安，给你两个饼，你就从他们手中接过来。
5 Afterward you come to the hill of God, where the garrison of the Philistines [is], and it comes to pass, at your coming in there to the city, that you have met a band of prophets coming down from the high place, and before them stringed instrument, and tambourine, and pipe, and harp, and they are prophesying;
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 YHWH has prospered over you, and you have prophesied with them, and have turned into a [new] 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 it has been, when these signs come to you—do for yourself as your hand finds, 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 have gone down before me to Gilgal, and behold, I am going down to you, to cause burnt-offerings to ascend, to sacrifice sacrifices of peace-offerings; you wait [for] seven days until my coming to you, and I have made known to you that which you 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 has been, at his turning his shoulder to go from Samuel, that God turns to him another heart, and all these signs come on 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 they come in there to the height, and behold, a band of prophets [is there] to meet him, and the Spirit of God prospers over him, and he prophesies in their midst.
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 comes to pass, all knowing him before, see, and behold, he has prophesied with prophets, and the people say to one another, “What [is] this [that] has happened to 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 a man there answers and says, “And who [is] their father?” Therefore it has been for an allegory, “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 he ceases from prophesying, and comes to the high place,
扫罗受感说话已毕，就上邱坛去了。
14 and the uncle of Saul says to him, and to his young man, “To where did you go?” And he says, “To seek the donkeys; and we see that they are not, and we come 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 the uncle of Saul says, “Please declare to me what Samuel said to 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 says to his uncle, “He certainly declared to us that the donkeys were found”; and of the matter of the kingdom he has not declared to him that which Samuel said.
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 calls the people to YHWH to Mizpeh,
撒母耳将百姓招聚到米斯巴耶和华那里，
18 and says to the sons of Israel, “Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: I have brought up Israel out of Egypt, and I deliver you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all the kingdoms who are oppressing 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 you have rejected your God today, who [is] Himself your Savior out of all your evils and your distresses, and you say, No, but you set a king over us; and now, station yourselves before YHWH, 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 Samuel brings all the tribes of Israel near, and the tribe of Benjamin is captured,
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 and he brings the tribe of Benjamin near by its families, and the family of Matri is captured, and Saul son of Kish is captured, and they seek him, and he has not been 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 And they ask again of YHWH, “Has the man come here yet?” And YHWH says, “Behold, he has been hidden near the vessels.”
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 run and bring him there, and he stationed himself in the midst of the people, and he is higher than any of the people from his shoulder 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 says to all the people, “Have you seen him on whom YHWH has fixed, for there is none like him among all the people?” And all the people shout, and say, “Let the king live!”
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 And Samuel speaks to the people the right of the kingdom, and writes in a scroll, and places [it] before YHWH; and Samuel sends all the people away, each 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 has also gone to his house, to Gibeah, and the force goes with him whose heart God has touched;
扫罗往基比亚回家去，有 神感动的一群人跟随他。
27 and the sons of worthlessness have said, “How can this one save us?” And they despise him, and have not brought a present to him; and he is as one being deaf.
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。
