< 1 Samuel 14 >
1 And it bifelde in a day, that Jonathas, the sone of Saul, seide to his squyer, a yong man, Come thou, and passe we to the staciouns of the Filisteis, which is biyende that place; `sotheli he schewide not this same thing to his fadir.
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 Sotheli Saul dwellide in the laste part of Gabaa, vndur a pumgarnarde tre, that was in the feeld of Gabaa; and the puple as of sixe hundrid men was with hym.
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 Achias, sone of Achitob, brother of Icaboth, sone of Fynees, that was gendrid of Ely, preest of the Lord in Silo, bar ephod, `that is, the preestis cloth; but also the puple wiste not whidur Jonathas hadde go.
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 Sotheli bitwixe the stiyngis, bi whiche Jonathas enforside to passe to the stacioun of Filisteis, weren stonys stondynge forth on euer either side, and scarris brokun bifore bi the maner of teeth on ech syde; name to oon was Boses, and name to `the tother was Sene;
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 o scarre was stondynge forth to the north ayens Machynas, and the tother scarre to the south ayens Gabaa.
一峰向北,与密抹相对,一峰向南,与迦巴相对。
6 Forsothe Jonathas seide to his yong squyer, Come thou, passe we to the stacioun of these vncircumcisid men, if in hap the Lord do for vs; for it is not hard to the Lord to saue, ethir in manye ethir in fewe.
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 squyer seide to hym, Do thou alle thingis that plesen thi soule; go whidur thou coueitist, Y schal be with thee, where euer thou wolt.
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 Jonathas seide, Lo! we passen to these men; and whanne we apperen to hem,
约拿单说:“我们要过到那些人那里去,使他们看见我们。
9 if thei speken thus to vs, Dwelle ye, til we comen to you; stonde we in oure place, and stie we not to hem.
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 Sotheli if thei seien, Stye ye to vs; stie we, for the Lord hath bitake hem in oure hondis; this schal be a signe to vs.
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 `Therfor euer either apperide to the stacioun of Filisteis; and Filisteis seiden, Lo! Ebreis goen out of caues, in whiche thei weren hid.
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 men of the stacioun spaken to Jonathas and to his squyer, and seiden, Stie ye to vs, and we schulen schewe to you a thing. And Jonathas seide to his squyer, `Stie we, sue thou me; for the Lord hath bitake hem in to the hondis 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 Forsothe Jonathas stiede crepynge on hondis and feet, and his squyer after hym; and whanne thei hadden seyn the face of Jonathas, summe felden doun bifor Jonathas, his squier killed othere, and suede hym.
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 firste wounde was maad, which Jonathas and his squyer smoot, as of twenti men, in `the myddil part of lond which a peire of oxun was wont to ere in the dai.
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 a myracle was don in the castels, and bi the feeldis, but also al the puple of the `stacioun of hem that yeden out to take prey, dredde, and `the castels weren disturblid; and it bifelde as a myracle of God.
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 aspyeris of Saul bihelden, that weren in Gabaa of Beniamyn, and lo! a multitude cast doun, and fleynge awei hidur and thidur.
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 seide to the puple that weren with hym, Seke ye, and se ye, who yede awei fro vs. And whanne thei hadden souyt, it was foundun, that Jonathas and his squyer weren not present.
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 seide to Achias, Brynge the arke of the Lord; for the arke of God was there in that dai with the sones of 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 whanne Saul spak to the preest, a grete noise roos in the castelis of Filisteis; and it encresside litil and litil, and sownede cleerliere. And Saul seide to the preest, Withdraw thin hond.
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 Therfor Saul criede, and al the puple that was with hym; and thei camen `til to the place of batel, and, lo! the swerd of ech man was turned to his neiybore, and a ful grete sleynge was.
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 But also Ebreis that weren with Filisteis yistirday and the thridde dai ago, and hadde stied with hem in castels, turneden ayen to be with Israel, that weren with Saul and Jonathas.
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 Also alle men of Israel, that hadden hid hem silf in the hil of Effraym, herden that Filisteis hadden fled; and thei felouschipiden hem silf with her men in batel, and as ten thousynde of men weren with Saul.
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 Lord sauyde Israel in that day. Sotheli the batel cam til to Bethauen.
那日,耶和华使以色列人得胜,一直战到伯·亚文。
24 And men of Israel weren felouschipid to hem silf in that dai; forsothe Saul swoor to the puple, and seide, Cursid be the man, that etith breed `til to euentid, til `Y venge me of myn enemyes.
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 al the puple ete not breed. And al the comyn puple of the lond cam in to a forest, in which was hony on the `face of erthe.
众民进入树林,见有蜜在地上。
26 And so the puple entride in to the forest, and flowynge hony apperide; and no man puttide hond to his mouth, for the puple dredde the ooth.
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 Forsothe Jonathas herde not, whanne his fadir swoor to the puple; and he helde forth the ende of a litil yerde, whiche he hadde in the hond, and dippide in to `a coomb of hony; and he turnede his hond to his mouth, and hise iyen weren liytned.
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 oon of the puple answeride, and seide, Thi fader boond the puple with an ooth, and seide, Cursid be the man that etith breed to dai. Forsothe the puple was feynt.
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 Jonathas seide, My fadir hath disturblid the lond; ye sien, that myn iyen ben liytned, for Y tastide a litil of this hony;
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 hou myche more if the puple hadde ete the prey of hise enemyes, which `prey it foond; whether not gretter veniaunce hadde be maad in Filisteis?
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 Therfore thei smytiden Filisteis in that dai fro Machynas `til in to Hailon. Forsothe the puple was maad ful wery;
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 puple turnede to prey, and took scheep and oxun, and calues; and thei killiden in the erthe; and the puple eet with 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 thei telden to Saul, and seiden, that the puple etynge with blood hadde synned to the Lord. And Saul seide, Ye han trespassid; walewe ye to me `riyt now a greet stoon.
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 seyde, `Be ye spred abrood in to the comyn puple, and seie ye to hem, that ech man brynge to me his oxe and ram; and sle ye on this stoon, and ete ye, and ye schulen not do synne to the Lord, `and ete with blood. Therfor al the puple brouyte ech man an oxe in his hond `til to nyyt, and thei killiden 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 Sotheli Saul bildide an auter to the Lord; and thanne firste he bigan to bilde an auter 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 seide, Falle we on the Filisteis in the nyyt, and waste we hem til the morewtid schyne; and leeue we not of hem a man. And the puple seide, Do thou al thing that semeth good to thee in thin iyen. And the preest seide, Neiye we hidur 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 counselide the Lord, and seide, Whether Y schal pursue Filisteis? whether thou schalt bitake hem in to the hondis of Israel? And the Lord answeride not to him in that dai.
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 seide, Brynge ye hidur alle the corneris of the puple, and wite ye, and se, bi whom this synne bifelde to dai.
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 The Lord sauyour of Israel lyueth; for if `it is don bi Jonathas my sone, he schal die with out ayen drawyng. At which ooth no man of al the puple ayenseide hym.
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 seide to al Israel, Be ye departid in to o part, and Y with my sone Jonathas schal be in the tothir part. And the puple answeride to Saul, Do thou that, that semeth good in thin iyen.
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 seide to the Lord God of Israel, Lord God of Israel, yyue thou doom, what is, that thou answerist not to dai to thi seruaunt? If this wickidness is in me, ether in Jonathas my sone, yyue thou schewyng; ether if this wickidnesse is in thi puple, yyue thou hoolynesse. And Jonathas was takun, and Saul; forsothe the puple yede out.
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 Saule seide, Sende ye lot bitwixe me and Jonathas my sone. And Jonathas was takun `bi 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 Forsothe Saul seide to Jonathas, Schewe thou to me, what thou didist. And Jonathas schewide to hym, and seide, Y tastynge tastide a litil of hony `in the ende of the yerde, that was in myn hond; and lo!
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 Y die. And Saul seide, God do to me these thingis, and adde `these thingis, for thou, Jonathas, schalt die bi deeth.
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 puple seide to Saul, `Therfor whethir Jonathas schal die, that dide this greet helthe in Israel? this is vnleueful; the Lord lyueth; noon heer of his heed schal falle in to erthe; for he wrouyte with God to dai. Therfor the puple delyuerede Jonathas, that he diede 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 yede a wey, and pursuede not Filisteis; sotheli Filisteys yeden in to her places.
扫罗回去,不追赶非利士人;非利士人也回本地去了。
47 And Saul, whanne the rewme was `confermyd on Israel, fauyt bi cumpas ayens alle hise enemyes, ayens Moab, and the sones of Amon, and Edom, and ayens the kyngis of Soba, and ayens Filisteis; and whidur euer he turnede hym, he ouercam.
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 whanne the oost was gaderid, he smoot Amalech; and delyuerede Israel fro the hond of hise distrieris.
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 Forsothe the sones of Saul weren Jonathas, and Jesuy, and Melchisua; the names of hise twei douytris, name of the firste gendrid douyter was Merob, and name `of the lesse douyter was Mycol.
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 name of `the wijf of Saul was Achynoem, the douytir of Achymaas; and the name of the prince of his chyualrye was Abner, sone of Ner, brother of the fadir 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 Forsothe Cys was the fadir of Saul; and Ner, the sone of Abiel, was fadir of Abner.
扫罗的父亲基士,押尼珥的父亲尼珥,都是亚别的儿子。
52 Sotheli myyti batel was ayens Filisteis in alle the daies of Saul; for whom euere Saul siy a strong man and schapli to batel, Saul felouschipide to him silf that man.
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。
