撒母耳记上 24
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1扫罗 追赶 非利士 人回来，有人告诉他说：「 大卫 在 隐·基底 的旷野。」
1After Saul had returned from pursuing the Philistines, he was told, “David is in the wilderness of En-gedi.”
2扫罗 就从 以色列 人中挑选三千精兵，率领他们往野羊的磐石去，寻索 大卫 和跟随他的人。
2So Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel and went to look for David and his men in the region of the Rocks of the Wild Goats.
3到了路旁的羊圈，在那里有洞， 扫罗 进去大解。 大卫 和跟随他的人正藏在洞里的深处。
3Soon Saul came to the sheepfolds along the road, where there was a cave, and he went in to relieve himself. And David and his men were hiding in the recesses of the cave.
4跟随的人对 大卫 说：「耶和华曾应许你说：『我要将你的仇敌交在你手里，你可以任意待他。』如今时候到了！」 大卫 就起来，悄悄地割下 扫罗 外袍的衣襟。
4So David’s men said to him, “This is the day about which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, that you may do with him as you wish.’” Then David crept up secretly and cut off a corner of Saul’s robe.
5随后 大卫 心中自责，因为割下 扫罗 的衣襟；
5Afterward, David’s conscience was stricken because he had cut off the corner of Saul’s robe.
6对跟随他的人说：「我的主乃是耶和华的受膏者，我在耶和华面前万不敢伸手害他，因他是耶和华的受膏者。」
6So he said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do such a thing to my master, the LORD’s anointed. May I never lift my hand against him, since he is the LORD’s anointed.”
7大卫 用这话拦住跟随他的人，不容他们起来害 扫罗 。 扫罗 起来，从洞里出去行路。
7With these words David restrained his men, and he did not let them rise up against Saul. Then Saul left the cave and went on his way.
8随后 大卫 也起来，从洞里出去，呼叫 扫罗 说：「我主，我王！」 扫罗 回头观看， 大卫 就屈身、脸伏于地下拜。
8After that, David got up, went out of the cave, and called out to Saul, “My lord the king!” When Saul looked behind him, David bowed facedown in reverence
9大卫 对 扫罗 说：「你为何听信人的谗言，说 大卫 想要害你呢？
9and said to Saul, “Why do you listen to the words of men who say, ‘Look, David intends to harm you’?
10今日你亲眼看见在洞中，耶和华将你交在我手里；有人叫我杀你，我却爱惜你，说：『我不敢伸手害我的主，因为他是耶和华的受膏者。』
10Behold, this day you have seen with your own eyes that the LORD delivered you into my hand in the cave. I was told to kill you, but I spared you and said, ‘I will not lift my hand against my lord, since he is the LORD’s anointed.’
11我父啊，看看你外袍的衣襟在我手中。我割下你的衣襟，没有杀你；你由此可以知道我没有恶意叛逆你。你虽然猎取我的命，我却没有得罪你。
11See, my father, look at the corner of your robe in my hand. For I cut it off, but I did not kill you. See and know that there is no evil or rebellion in my hands. I have not sinned against you, even though you are hunting me down to take my life.
12愿耶和华在你我中间判断是非，在你身上为我伸冤，我却不亲手加害于你。
12May the LORD judge between you and me, and may the LORD take vengeance on you, but my hand will never be against you.
13古人有句俗语说：『恶事出于恶人。』我却不亲手加害于你。
13As the old proverb says, ‘Wickedness proceeds from the wicked.’ But my hand will never be against you.
14以色列 王出来要寻找谁呢？追赶谁呢？不过追赶一条死狗，一个虼蚤就是了。
14Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom are you pursuing? A dead dog? A flea?
15愿耶和华在你我中间施行审判，断定是非，并且鉴察，为我伸冤，救我脱离你的手。」
15May the LORD be our judge and decide between you and me. May He take notice and plead my case and deliver me from your hand.”
16大卫 向 扫罗 说完这话， 扫罗 说：「我儿 大卫 ，这是你的声音吗？」就放声大哭，
16When David had finished saying these things, Saul called back, “Is that your voice, David my son?” Then Saul wept aloud
17对 大卫 说：「你比我公义；因为你以善待我，我却以恶待你。
17and said to David, “You are more righteous than I, for you have rewarded me with good, though I have rewarded you with evil.
18你今日显明是以善待我；因为耶和华将我交在你手里，你却没有杀我。
18And you have shown this day how well you have dealt with me; for when the LORD delivered me into your hand, you did not kill me.
19人若遇见仇敌，岂肯放他平安无事地去呢？愿耶和华因你今日向我所行的，以善报你。
19When a man finds his enemy, does he let him go away unharmed? May the LORD reward you with good for what you have done for me this day.
20我也知道你必要作王， 以色列 的国必坚立在你手里。
20Now I know for sure that you will be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in your hands.
21现在你要指着耶和华向我起誓，不剪除我的后裔，在我父家不灭没我的名。」
21So now, swear to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants or wipe out my name from my father’s house.”
22于是 大卫 向 扫罗 起誓， 扫罗 就回家去； 大卫 和跟随他的人上山寨去了。
22So David gave his oath to Saul. Then Saul returned home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.
