撒母耳记上 24
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English 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。」
1When Saul had returned from following the Philistines, he was told, “Behold, 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。
2Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men on 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。
3He came to the sheep pens by the way, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself. Now David and his men were staying in the innermost parts 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。
4David’s men said to him, “Behold, the day of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.’” Then David arose and cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe secretly.
5随后 大卫 心中自责，因为割下 扫罗 的衣襟；
5Afterward, David’s heart struck him because he had cut off Saul’s skirt.
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。」
6He said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my lord, the LORD’s anointed, to stretch out 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。
7So David checked his men with these words, and didn’t allow them to rise against Saul. Saul rose up out of 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。
8David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave and cried after Saul, saying, “My lord the king!” When Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and showed respect.
9大卫 对 扫罗 说：「你为何听信人的谗言，说 大卫 想要害你呢？
9David said to Saul, “Why do you listen to men’s words, saying, ‘Behold, David seeks 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, today your eyes have seen how the LORD had delivered you today into my hand in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared you. I said, ‘I will not stretch out my hand against my lord, for 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。
11Moreover, my father, behold, yes, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the skirt of your robe and didn’t kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor disobedience in my hand. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt for my life to take it.
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 me and you, and may the LORD avenge me of you; but my hand will not be on 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 proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness;’ but my hand will not be on 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 do you pursue? 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 therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and you, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of 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，
16It came to pass, when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, “Is that your voice, my son David?” Saul lifted up his voice and wept.
17对 大卫 说：「你比我公义；因为你以善待我，我却以恶待你。
17He said to David, “You are more righteous than I; for you have done good to me, whereas I have done evil to you.
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。
18You have declared today how you have dealt well with me, because when the LORD had delivered me up into your hand, you didn’t 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。
19For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away unharmed? Therefore may the LORD reward you good for that which you have done to me today.
20我也知道你必要作王， 以色列 的国必坚立在你手里。
20Now, behold, I know that you will surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in your hand.
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。」
21Swear now therefore to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my offspring after me, and that you will not destroy my name out of 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。
22David swore to Saul. Saul went home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.
