< 1 Samuel 9 >
1 And he was a man (from Benjamin *Q(K)*) and name his [was] Kish [the] son of Abiel [the] son of Zeror [the] son of Becorath [the] son of Aphiah a son of a man a Jaminite a mighty [man] of wealth.
有一个便雅悯人,名叫基士,是便雅悯人亚斐亚的玄孙,比歌拉的曾孙,洗罗的孙子,亚别的儿子,是个大能的勇士。
2 And to him he belonged a son and name his [was] Saul a young man and good and not a man from [the] people of Israel [was] good more than him from shoulder his and up-wards [he was] tall more than all the people.
他有一个儿子,名叫扫罗,又健壮、又俊美,在以色列人中没有一个能比他的;身体比众民高过一头。
3 And they were lost the she-asses of Kish [the] father of Saul and he said Kish to Saul son his take please with you one from the young men and arise go seek the she-asses.
扫罗的父亲基士丢了几头驴,他就吩咐儿子扫罗说:“你带一个仆人去寻找驴。”
4 And he passed in [the] hill country of Ephraim and he passed in [the] land of Shalisha and not they found [them] and they passed in [the] land of Shaalim and there not and he passed in [the] land of [the] Jaminite[s] and not they found [them].
扫罗就走过以法莲山地,又过沙利沙地,都没有找着;又过沙琳地,驴也不在那里;又过便雅悯地,还没有找着。
5 They they came in [the] land of Zuph and Saul he said to servant his who [was] with him come! so let us turn back lest he should cease father my from the she-asses and he will be anxious to us.
到了苏弗地,扫罗对跟随他的仆人说:“我们不如回去,恐怕我父亲不为驴挂心,反为我们担忧。”
6 And he said to him here! please a man of God [is] in the city this and the man [is] honored all that he speaks actually it comes now let us go there perhaps he will tell to us journey our which we have walked on it.
仆人说:“这城里有一位神人,是众人所尊重的,凡他所说的全都应验。我们不如往他那里去,或者他能将我们当走的路指示我们。”
7 And he said Saul to servant his and here! we will go and what? will we bring to the man for the bread it has been used up from bags our and [is] a gift there not to bring to [the] man of God what? [is] with us.
扫罗对仆人说:“我们若去,有什么可以送那人呢?我们囊中的食物都吃尽了,也没有礼物可以送那神人,我们还有什么没有?”
8 And he repeated the servant to answer Saul and he said here! [is] found in hand my a fourth part of a shekel of silver and I will give [it] to [the] man of God and he will tell to us journey our.
仆人回答扫罗说:“我手里有银子一舍客勒的四分之一,可以送那神人,请他指示我们当走的路。”(
9 Before - in Israel thus he said the man when went he to consult God come so let us go to the seer for to the prophet this day it was called before the seer.
从前以色列中,若有人去问 神,就说:“我们问先见去吧!”现在称为“先知”的,从前称为“先见”。)
10 And he said Saul to servant his [is] good word your come! - let us go and they went to the city where [was] there [the] man of God.
扫罗对仆人说:“你说的是,我们可以去。”于是他们往神人所住的城里去了。
11 They [were] going up on [the] ascent of the city and they they found young women coming out to draw water and they said to them ¿ [is] there in this [place] the seer.
他们上坡要进城,就遇见几个少年女子出来打水,问她们说:“先见在这里没有?”
12 And they answered them and they said there is there! before you hurry - now for this day he has come to the city for a sacrifice this day [belongs] to the people at the high place.
女子回答说:“在这里,他在你们前面。快去吧!他今日正到城里,因为今日百姓要在邱坛献祭。
13 When come you the city thus you will find! him before he will go up the high place towards to eat for not it will eat the people until comes he for he he will bless the sacrifice after thus they will eat those [who] were invited and now go up for him as the day you will find! him.
在他还没有上邱坛吃祭物之先,你们一进城必遇见他;因他未到,百姓不能吃,必等他先祝祭,然后请的客才吃。现在你们上去,这时候必遇见他。”
14 And they went up the city they [were] coming in [the] midst of the city and there! Samuel [was] coming out to meet them to go up the high place.
二人就上去;将进城的时候,撒母耳正迎着他们来,要上邱坛去。
15 And Yahweh he had uncovered [the] ear of Samuel a day one before came Saul saying.
扫罗未到的前一日,耶和华已经指示撒母耳说:
16 About this time - tomorrow I will send to you a man from [the] land of Benjamin and you will anoint him to ruler over people my Israel and he will deliver people my from [the] hand of [the] Philistines for I have seen people my for it has come cry of distress its to me.
“明日这时候,我必使一个人从便雅悯地到你这里来,你要膏他作我民以色列的君。他必救我民脱离非利士人的手;因我民的哀声上达于我,我就眷顾他们。”
17 And Samuel he saw Saul and Yahweh he answered him here! the man whom I spoke to you this [one] he will rule over people my.
撒母耳看见扫罗的时候,耶和华对他说:“看哪,这人就是我对你所说的,他必治理我的民。”
18 And he approached Saul Samuel in [the] middle of the gate and he said tell! please to me where? this [is] [the] house of the seer.
扫罗在城门里走到撒母耳跟前,说:“请告诉我,先见的寓所在哪里?”
19 And he answered Samuel Saul and he said I [am] the seer go up before me the high place and you will eat with me this day and I will send away you in the morning and all that [is] in heart your I will tell to you.
撒母耳回答说:“我就是先见。你在我前面上邱坛去,因为你们今日必与我同席;明日早晨我送你去,将你心里的事都告诉你。
20 And to the she-asses which were lost of you this day [the] three the days may not you set heart your to them for they have been found and [belongs] to whom? every desirable thing of Israel ¿ not to you and to all [the] house of father your.
至于你前三日所丢的那几头驴,你心里不必挂念,已经找着了。以色列众人所仰慕的是谁呢?不是仰慕你和你父的全家吗?”
21 And he answered Saul and he said ¿ not a Ben-jaminite [am] I from [the] small of [the] tribes of Israel and [is] clan? my the insignificant of all [the] clans of [the] tribes of Benjamin and why? have you spoken to me according to the manner this.
扫罗说:“我不是以色列支派中至小的便雅悯人吗?我家不是便雅悯支派中至小的家吗?你为何对我说这样的话呢?”
22 And he took Samuel Saul and servant his and he brought them [the] room towards and he gave to them a place at [the] head of those [who] were invited and they [were] about thirty man.
撒母耳领扫罗和他仆人进了客堂,使他们在请来的客中坐首位;客约有三十个人。
23 And he said Samuel to the cook give! the portion which I gave to you which I said to you put it with you.
撒母耳对厨役说:“我交给你收存的那一分祭肉现在可以拿来。”
24 And he lifted up the cook the thigh and the on it and he put [it] - before Saul and he said here! the [part which] remains set [it] before you eat [it] for to the appointed time [it was] kept for you saying the people - I have invited and he ate Saul with Samuel on the day that.
厨役就把收存的腿拿来,摆在扫罗面前,撒母耳说:“这是所留下的,放在你面前。吃吧!因我请百姓的时候,特意为你存留这肉到此时。” 当日,扫罗就与撒母耳同席。
25 And they went down from the high place the city and he spoke with Saul on the roof.
众人从邱坛下来进城,撒母耳和扫罗在房顶上说话。
26 And they rose early and it was when came up the dawn and he called Samuel to Saul (the roof towards *Q(K)*) saying arise! so I may send away you and he arose Saul and they went out [the] two of them he and Samuel the outside towards.
次日清早起来,黎明的时候,扫罗在房顶上。撒母耳呼叫他说:“起来吧,我好送你回去。”扫罗就起来,和撒母耳一同出去。
27 They [were] going down at [the] edge of the city and Samuel he said to Saul say to the servant so he may pass on before us and he passed on and you remain as the day so I may make hear you [the] word of God.
二人下到城角,撒母耳对扫罗说:“要吩咐仆人先走(仆人就先走了);你且站在这里,等我将 神的话传与你听。”
