Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1When Samuel died, all Israel gathered to mourn for him; and they buried him at his home in Ramah. Then David set out and went down to the Wilderness of Paran.
1撒母耳 死了， 以色列 众人聚集，为他哀哭，将他葬在 拉玛 —他自己的坟墓里。 大卫 起身，下到 巴兰 的旷野。
2Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel. He was a very wealthy man with a thousand goats and three thousand sheep, which he was shearing in Carmel.
2在 玛云 有一个人，他的产业在 迦密 ，是一个大富户，有三千绵羊，一千山羊；他正在 迦密 剪羊毛。
3His name was Nabal, and his wife’s name was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband, a Calebite, was harsh and evil in his dealings.
3那人名叫 拿八 ，是 迦勒 族的人；他的妻名叫 亚比该 ，是聪明俊美的妇人。 拿八 为人刚愎凶恶。
4While David was in the wilderness, he heard that Nabal was shearing sheep.
4大卫 在旷野听见说 拿八 剪羊毛，
5So David sent ten young men and instructed them, “Go up to Nabal at Carmel. Greet him in my name
5大卫 就打发十个仆人，吩咐他们说：「你们上 迦密 去见 拿八 ，提我的名问他安。
6and say to him, ‘Long life to you, and peace to you and your house and to all that belongs to you.
6要对那富户如此说：『愿你平安，愿你家平安，愿你一切所有的都平安。
7Now I hear that it is time for shearing. When your shepherds were with us, we did not harass them, and nothing of theirs was missing the whole time they were in Carmel.
7现在我听说有人为你剪羊毛，你的牧人在 迦密 的时候和我们在一处，我们没有欺负他们，他们也未曾失落什么。
8Ask your young men, and they will tell you. So let my young men find favor with you, for we have come on the day of a feast. Please give whatever you can afford to your servants and to your son David.’”
8可以问你的仆人，他们必告诉你。所以愿我的仆人在你眼前蒙恩，因为是在好日子来的。求你随手取点赐与仆人和你儿子 大卫 。』」
9When David’s young men arrived, they relayed all these words to Nabal on behalf of David. Then they waited.
9大卫 的仆人到了，将这话提 大卫 的名都告诉了 拿八 ，就住了口。
10But Nabal asked them, “Who is David? Who is this son of Jesse? Many servants these days are breaking away from their masters.
10拿八 回答 大卫 的仆人说：「 大卫 是谁？ 耶西 的儿子是谁？近来悖逆主人奔逃的仆人甚多，
11Why should I take my bread and water and the meat I have slaughtered for my shearers, and give them to these men whose origin I do not know?”
11我岂可将饮食和为我剪羊毛人所宰的肉给我不知道从哪里来的人呢？」
12So David’s men turned around and went back, and they relayed to him all these words.
12大卫 的仆人就转身从原路回去，照这话告诉 大卫 。
13And David said to his men, “Strap on your swords!” So David and all his men put on their swords, and about four hundred men followed David, while two hundred stayed with the supplies.
13大卫 向跟随他的人说：「你们各人都要带上刀！」众人就都带上刀， 大卫 也带上刀。跟随 大卫 上去的约有四百人，留下二百人看守器具。
14Meanwhile, one of Nabal’s young men informed Nabal’s wife Abigail, “Look, David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our master, but he scolded them.
14有 拿八 的一个仆人告诉 拿八 的妻 亚比该 说：「 大卫 从旷野打发使者来问我主人的安，主人却辱骂他们。
15Yet these men were very good to us. When we were in the field, we were not harassed, and nothing of ours went missing the whole time we lived among them.
15但是那些人待我们甚好；我们在田野与他们来往的时候，没有受他们的欺负，也未曾失落什么。
16They were a wall around us, both day and night, the whole time we were herding our sheep near them.
16我们在他们那里牧羊的时候，他们昼夜作我们的保障。
17Now consider carefully what you must do, because disaster looms over our master and all his household. For he is such a scoundrel that nobody can speak to him!”
17所以你当筹划，看怎样行才好；不然，祸患定要临到我主人和他全家。他性情凶暴，无人敢与他说话。」
18Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two skins of wine, five butchered sheep, five seahs of roasted grain, a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs. She loaded them on donkeys
18亚比该 急忙将二百饼，两皮袋酒，五只收拾好了的羊，五细亚烘好了的穗子，一百葡萄饼，二百无花果饼，都驮在驴上，
19and said to her young men, “Go ahead of me. I will be right behind you.” But she did not tell her husband Nabal.
19对仆人说：「你们前头走，我随着你们去。」这事她却没有告诉丈夫 拿八 。
20As Abigail came riding her donkey into a mountain ravine, she saw David and his men coming down toward her, and she met them.
20亚比该 骑着驴，正下山坡，见 大卫 和跟随他的人从对面下来， 亚比该 就迎接他们。
21Now David had just finished saying, “In vain I have protected all that belonged to this man in the wilderness. Nothing that belongs to him has gone missing, yet he has paid me back evil for good.
21大卫 曾说：「我在旷野为那人看守所有的，以致他一样不失落，实在是徒然了！他向我以恶报善。
22May God punish David, and ever so severely, if I let one of Nabal’s men survive until morning.”
22凡属 拿八 的男丁，我若留一个到明日早晨，愿 神重重降罚与我！」
23When Abigail saw David, she quickly got off the donkey, fell facedown, and bowed before him.
23亚比该 见 大卫 ，便急忙下驴，在 大卫 面前脸伏于地叩拜，
24She fell at his feet and said, “My lord, may the blame be on me alone, but please let your servant speak to you; hear the words of your servant.
24俯伏在 大卫 的脚前，说：「我主啊，愿这罪归我！求你容婢女向你进言，更求你听婢女的话。
25My lord should pay no attention to this scoundrel Nabal, for he lives up to his name: His name means Fool, and folly accompanies him. I, your servant, did not see my lord’s young men whom you sent.
25我主不要理这坏人 拿八 ，他的性情与他的名相称；他名叫 拿八 ，他为人果然愚顽。但我主所打发的仆人，婢女并没有看见。
26Now, my lord, as surely as the LORD lives and you yourself live, the LORD has held you back from coming to bloodshed and avenging yourself with your own hand. May your enemies and those who seek harm for my lord be like Nabal.
26我主啊，耶和华既然阻止你亲手报仇，取流血的罪，所以我指着永生的耶和华、又敢在你面前起誓说：『愿你的仇敌和谋害你的人都像 拿八 一样。』
27Now let this gift your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who follow you.
27如今求你将婢女送来的礼物给跟随你的仆人。
28Please forgive your servant’s offense, for the LORD will surely make a lasting dynasty for my lord, because he fights the LORD’s battles. May no evil be found in you as long as you live.
28求你饶恕婢女的罪过。耶和华必为我主建立坚固的家，因我主为耶和华争战；并且在你平生的日子查不出有什么过来。
29And should someone pursue you and seek your life, then the life of my lord will be bound securely by the LORD your God in the bundle of the living. But He shall fling away the lives of your enemies like stones from a sling.
29虽有人起来追逼你，寻索你的性命，你的性命却在耶和华—你的 神那里蒙保护，如包裹宝器一样；你仇敌的性命，耶和华必抛去，如用机弦甩石一样。
30When the LORD has done for my lord all the good He promised, and when He has appointed you ruler over Israel,
30我主现在若不亲手报仇流无辜人的血，到了耶和华照所应许你的话赐福与你，立你作 以色列 的王，那时我主必不至心里不安，觉得良心有亏。耶和华赐福与我主的时候，求你记念婢女。」
31then my lord will have no remorse or guilt of conscience over needless bloodshed and revenge. And when the LORD has dealt well with my lord, may you remember your maidservant.”

32Then David said to Abigail, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you to meet me this day!
32大卫 对 亚比该 说：「耶和华— 以色列 的 神是应当称颂的，因为他今日使你来迎接我。
33Blessed is your discernment, and blessed are you, because today you kept me from bloodshed and from avenging myself by my own hand.
33你和你的见识也当称赞；因为你今日拦阻我亲手报仇、流人的血。
34Otherwise, as surely as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has restrained me from harming you, if you had not come quickly to meet me, then surely no male belonging to Nabal would have been left alive by morning light.”
34我指着阻止我加害于你的耶和华— 以色列 永生的 神起誓，你若不速速地来迎接我，到明日早晨，凡属 拿八 的男丁必定不留一个。」
35Then David accepted from her hand what she had brought him, and he said to her, “Go home in peace. See, I have heeded your voice and granted your request.”
35大卫 受了 亚比该 送来的礼物，就对她说：「我听了你的话，准了你的情面，你可以平平安安地回家吧！」
36When Abigail returned to Nabal, there he was in the house, holding a feast fit for a king, in high spirits and very drunk. So she told him nothing until morning light.
36亚比该 到 拿八 那里，见他在家里设摆筵席，如同王的筵席； 拿八 快乐大醉。 亚比该 无论大小事都没有告诉他，就等到次日早晨。
37In the morning when Nabal was sober, his wife told him about these events, and his heart failed within him and he became like a stone.
37到了早晨， 拿八 醒了酒，他的妻将这些事都告诉他，他就魂不附体，身僵如石头一般。
38About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal dead.
38过了十天，耶和华击打 拿八 ，他就死了。
39On hearing that Nabal was dead, David said, “Blessed be the LORD, who has upheld my cause against the reproach of Nabal and has restrained His servant from evil. For the LORD has brought the wickedness of Nabal down upon his own head.” Then David sent word to Abigail, asking for her in marriage.
39大卫 听见 拿八 死了，就说：「应当称颂耶和华，因他伸了 拿八 羞辱我的冤，又阻止仆人行恶；也使 拿八 的恶归到 拿八 的头上。」于是 大卫 打发人去，与 亚比该 说，要娶她为妻。
40When his servants came to Abigail at Carmel, they said, “David has sent us to take you as his wife.”
40大卫 的仆人到了 迦密 见 亚比该 ，对她说：「 大卫 打发我们来见你，想要娶你为妻。」
41She arose, then bowed facedown and said, “Here is your maidservant, ready to serve and to wash the feet of my lord’s servants.”
41亚比该 就起来，俯伏在地，说：「我情愿作婢女，洗我主仆人的脚。」
42So Abigail hurried and got on a donkey, and attended by five of her maidens, she followed David’s messengers and became his wife.
42亚比该 立刻起身，骑上驴，带着五个使女，跟从 大卫 的使者去了，就作了 大卫 的妻。
43David had also married Ahinoam of Jezreel. So she and Abigail were both his wives.
43大卫 先娶了 耶斯列 人 亚希暖 ，她们二人都作了他的妻。
44But Saul had given his daughter Michal, David’s wife, to Palti son of Laish, who was from Gallim.
44扫罗 已将他的女儿 米甲 ，就是 大卫 的妻，给了 迦琳 人 拉亿 的儿子 帕提 为妻。
