1 Kings 13
1 A man of God came out of Judah by the word of Yahweh to Bethel. Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense.
那时，有一个神人奉耶和华的命从犹大来到伯特利。耶罗波安正站在坛旁要烧香；
2 He cried against the altar by the word of Yahweh: “Altar, altar! This is what Yahweh says, 'See, a son named Josiah will be born to the family of David, and on you he will sacrifice the priests of the high places who now burn incense on you. On you they will burn human bones.'”
神人奉耶和华的命向坛呼叫，说：“坛哪，坛哪！耶和华如此说：大卫家里必生一个儿子，名叫约西亚，他必将邱坛的祭司，就是在你上面烧香的，杀在你上面，人的骨头也必烧在你上面。”
3 Then the man of God gave a sign the same day, saying, “This is the sign that Yahweh has spoken: 'Look, the altar will be split apart, and the ashes on it will be poured out.'”
当日，神人设个预兆，说：“这坛必破裂，坛上的灰必倾撒，这是耶和华说的预兆。”
4 When the king heard what the man of God said, that he had cried out against the altar at Bethel, Jeroboam reached out with his hand from the altar, saying, “Seize him.” Then the hand with which he had reached out against the man dried up, so that he could not draw it back to himself.
耶罗波安王听见神人向伯特利的坛所呼叫的话，就从坛上伸手，说：“拿住他吧！”王向神人所伸的手就枯干了，不能弯回；
5 (The altar was also split apart and the ashes poured out from the altar, as described by the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Yahweh.)
坛也破裂了，坛上的灰倾撒了，正如神人奉耶和华的命所设的预兆。
6 King Jeroboam answered and said to the man of God, “Plead for the favor of Yahweh your God and pray for me, so that my hand may be restored to me again.” So the man of God prayed to Yahweh, and the king's hand was restored to him again, and it became as it was before.
王对神人说：“请你为我祷告，求耶和华—你 神的恩典使我的手复原。”于是神人祈祷耶和华，王的手就复了原，仍如寻常一样。
7 The king said to the man of God, “Come home with me and refresh yourself, and I will give you a reward.”
王对神人说：“请你同我回去吃饭，加添心力，我也必给你赏赐。”
8 The man of God said to the king, “Even if you give me half your possessions, I will not go with you, nor will I eat food or drink water in this place,
神人对王说：“你就是把你的宫一半给我，我也不同你进去，也不在这地方吃饭喝水；
9 because Yahweh commanded me by his word, 'You will eat no bread nor drink water, nor return by the way that you came.'”
因为有耶和华的话嘱咐我，说不可在伯特利吃饭喝水，也不可从你去的原路回来。”
10 So the man of God left another way and did not return to his home by the way that he had come to Bethel.
于是神人从别的路回去，不从伯特利来的原路回去。
11 Now there was an old prophet living in Bethel, and one of his sons came and told him all the things that the man of God had done that day in Bethel. His sons also told him the words that the man of God had spoken to the king.
有一个老先知住在伯特利，他儿子们来，将神人当日在伯特利所行的一切事和向王所说的话都告诉了父亲。
12 Their father said to them, “Which way did he go?” Now his sons had seen the way the man of God from Judah had gone.
父亲问他们说：“神人从哪条路去了呢？”儿子们就告诉他；原来他们看见那从犹大来的神人所去的路。
13 So he said to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me.” So they saddled the donkey and he rode off on it.
老先知就吩咐他儿子们说：“你们为我备驴。”他们备好了驴，他就骑上，
14 The old prophet went after the man of God and found him sitting under an oak tree; and he said to him, “Are you the man of God who came from Judah?” He answered, “I am.”
去追赶神人，遇见他坐在橡树底下，就问他说：“你是从犹大来的神人不是？”他说：“是。”
15 Then the old prophet said to him, “Come home with me and eat food.”
老先知对他说：“请你同我回家吃饭。”
16 The man of God answered, “I may not return with you nor go in with you, neither will I eat food nor drink water with you in this place,
神人说：“我不可同你回去进你的家，也不可在这里同你吃饭喝水；
17 because it was commanded to me by the word of Yahweh, 'You will eat no food nor drink water there, nor return by the way that you came.'”
因为有耶和华的话嘱咐我说：‘你在那里不可吃饭喝水，也不可从你去的原路回来。’”
18 So the old prophet said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of Yahweh, saying, 'Bring him back with you into your house, that he may eat food and drink water.'” But he was lying to the man of God.
老先知对他说：“我也是先知，和你一样。有天使奉耶和华的命对我说：‘你去把他带回你的家，叫他吃饭喝水。’”这都是老先知诓哄他。
19 So the man of God went back with the old prophet and ate food in his house and drank water.
于是神人同老先知回去，在他家里吃饭喝水。
20 As they sat at the table, the word of Yahweh came to the prophet who had brought him back,
二人坐席的时候，耶和华的话临到那带神人回来的先知，
21 and he cried to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, “Yahweh says, 'Because you have been disobedient to the word of Yahweh and have not kept the command that Yahweh your God gave you,
他就对那从犹大来的神人说：“耶和华如此说：你既违背耶和华的话，不遵守耶和华—你 神的命令，
22 but came back and have eaten food and drunk water in the place about which Yahweh told you to eat no food and drink no water, your body will not be buried in the tomb of your fathers.'”
反倒回来，在耶和华禁止你吃饭喝水的地方吃了喝了，因此你的尸身不得入你列祖的坟墓。”
23 After he had eaten food and after he had drunk, the prophet saddled the donkey of the man of God, the man who had come back with him.
吃喝完了，老先知为所带回来的先知备驴。
24 When the man of God was gone, a lion met him on the road and killed him, and his body was left on the road. Then the donkey stood by it, and the lion also stood by the body.
他就去了，在路上有个狮子遇见他，将他咬死，尸身倒在路上，驴站在尸身旁边，狮子也站在尸身旁边。
25 When men passed by and saw the body left on the road, and the lion standing by the body, they came and told it in the city where the old prophet lived.
有人从那里经过，看见尸身倒在路上，狮子站在尸身旁边，就来到老先知所住的城里述说这事。
26 When the prophet who had brought him back from the way heard it, he said, “It is the man of God who disobeyed the word of Yahweh. Therefore Yahweh gave him to the lion, which tore him to pieces and killed him, just as the word of Yahweh warned him.”
那带神人回来的先知听见这事，就说：“这是那违背了耶和华命令的神人，所以耶和华把他交给狮子；狮子抓伤他，咬死他，是应验耶和华对他说的话。”
27 So the old prophet spoke to his sons, saying, “Saddle my donkey,” and they saddled it.
老先知就吩咐他儿子们说：“你们为我备驴。”他们就备了驴。
28 He went and found the body left in the road, and the donkey and the lion standing by the body. The lion had not eaten the body, nor attacked the donkey.
他去了，看见神人的尸身倒在路上，驴和狮子站在尸身旁边，狮子却没有吃尸身，也没有抓伤驴。
29 The prophet took up the body of the man of God, laid it on the donkey, and brought it back. He came to his own city to mourn and to bury him.
老先知就把神人的尸身驮在驴上，带回自己的城里，要哀哭他，葬埋他；
30 He laid the body in his own grave, and they mourned over him, saying, “Woe, my brother!”
就把他的尸身葬在自己的坟墓里，哀哭他，说：“哀哉！我兄啊。”
31 Then after he had buried him, the old prophet spoke to his sons, saying, “When I am dead, bury me in the tomb in which the man of God is buried. Lay my bones beside his bones.
安葬之后，老先知对他儿子们说：“我死了，你们要葬我在神人的坟墓里，使我的尸骨靠近他的尸骨，
32 For the message he declared by the word of Yahweh, against the altar in Bethel and against all the houses on the high places in the cities of Samaria, will certainly happen.”
因为他奉耶和华的命指着伯特利的坛和撒马利亚各城有邱坛之殿所说的话必定应验。”
33 After this Jeroboam did not turn from his evil way, but continued to appoint common priests for the high places from among all sorts of people. Any who would serve he consecrated as a priest.
这事以后，耶罗波安仍不离开他的恶道，将凡民立为邱坛的祭司；凡愿意的，他都分别为圣，立为邱坛的祭司。
34 This matter became sin to the family of Jeroboam and caused his family to be destroyed and to be exterminated from the face of the earth.
这事叫耶罗波安的家陷在罪里，甚至他的家从地上除灭了。
