撒母耳记下 17
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1亚希多弗 又对 押沙龙 说：「求你准我挑选一万二千人，今夜我就起身追赶 大卫 ，
1Furthermore, Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Let me choose twelve thousand men and set out tonight in pursuit of David.
2趁他疲乏手软，我忽然追上他，使他惊惶；跟随他的民必都逃跑，我就单杀王一人，
2I will attack him while he is weak and weary; I will throw him into a panic, and all the people with him will flee; I will strike down only the king
3使众民都归顺你。你所寻找的人 既然死了 ，众民就如已经归顺你；这样，也都平安无事了。」
3and bring all the people back to you as a bride returning to her husband. You seek the life of only one man; then all the people will be at peace.”
4押沙龙 和 以色列 的长老都以这话为美。
4This proposal seemed good to Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
5押沙龙 说：「要召 亚基 人 户筛 来，我们也要听他怎样说。」
5Then Absalom said, “Summon Hushai the Archite as well, and let us hear what he too has to say.”
6户筛 到了 押沙龙 面前， 押沙龙 向他说：「 亚希多弗 是如此如此说的，我们照着他的话行可以不可以？若不可，你就说吧！」
6So Hushai came to Absalom, who told him, “Ahithophel has spoken this proposal. Should we carry it out? If not, what do you say?”
7户筛 对 押沙龙 说：「 亚希多弗 这次所定的谋不善。」
7Hushai replied, “This time the advice of Ahithophel is not sound.”
8户筛 又说：「你知道，你父亲和跟随他的人都是勇士，现在他们心里恼怒，如同田野丢崽子的母熊一般，而且你父亲是个战士，必不和民一同住宿。
8He continued, “You know your father and his men. They are mighty men, and as fierce as a wild bear robbed of her cubs. Moreover, your father is a man of war who will not spend the night with the troops.
9他现今或藏在坑中或在别处，若有人首先被杀，凡听见的必说：『跟随 押沙龙 的民被杀了。』
9Surely by now he is hiding in a cave or some other location. If some of your troops fall first, whoever hears of it will say, ‘There has been a slaughter among the troops who follow Absalom.’
10虽有人胆大如狮子，他的心也必消化；因为 以色列 人都知道你父亲是英雄，跟随他的人也都是勇士。
10Then even the most valiant soldier with the heart of a lion will melt with fear, because all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man who has valiant men with him.
11依我之计，不如将 以色列 众人—从 但 直到 别是巴 ，如同海边的沙那样多—聚集到你这里来，你也亲自率领他们出战。
11Instead, I advise that all Israel from Dan to Beersheba—a multitude like the sand on the seashore—be gathered to you, and that you yourself lead them into battle.
12这样，我们在何处遇见他，就下到他那里，如同露水下在地上一般，连他带跟随他的人，一个也不留下。
12Then we will attack David wherever we find him, and we will descend on him like dew on the ground. And of all the men with him, not even one will remain.
13他若进了哪一座城， 以色列 众人必带绳子去，将那城拉到河里，甚至连一块小石头都不剩下。」
13If he retreats to a city, all Israel will bring ropes to that city, and we will drag it down to the valley until not even a pebble can be found.”
14押沙龙 和 以色列 众人说：「 亚基 人 户筛 的计谋比 亚希多弗 的计谋更好！」这是因耶和华定意破坏 亚希多弗 的良谋，为要降祸与 押沙龙 。
14Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than that of Ahithophel.” For the LORD had purposed to thwart the good counsel of Ahithophel in order to bring disaster on Absalom.
15户筛 对祭司 撒督 和 亚比亚他 说： 「 亚希多弗 为 押沙龙 和 以色列 的长老所定的计谋是如此如此，我所定的计谋是如此如此。
15So Hushai told Zadok and Abiathar, the priests, “This is what Ahithophel has advised Absalom and the elders of Israel, and this is what I have advised.
16现在你们要急速打发人去，告诉 大卫 说：『今夜不可住在旷野的渡口，务要过河，免得王和跟随他的人都被吞灭。』」
16Now send quickly and tell David, ‘Do not spend the night at the fords of the wilderness, but be sure to cross over. Otherwise the king and all the people with him will be swallowed up.’”
17那时， 约拿单 和 亚希玛斯 在 隐·罗结 那里等候，不敢进城，恐怕被人看见。有一个使女出来，将这话告诉他们，他们就去报信给 大卫 王。
17Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at En-rogel, where a servant girl would come and pass along information to them. They in turn would go and inform King David, for they dared not be seen entering the city.
18然而有一个童子看见他们，就去告诉 押沙龙 。他们急忙跑到 巴户琳 某人的家里；那人院中有一口井，他们就下到井里。
18But a young man did see them and told Absalom. So the two left quickly and came to the house of a man in Bahurim. He had a well in his courtyard, and they climbed down into it.
19那家的妇人用盖盖上井口，又在上头铺上碎麦，事就没有泄漏。
19Then the man’s wife took a covering and spread it over the mouth of the well, scattering grain over it so nobody would know a thing.
20押沙龙 的仆人来到那家，问妇人说：「 亚希玛斯 和 约拿单 在哪里？」妇人说：「他们过了河了。」仆人找他们，找不着，就回 耶路撒冷 去了。
20When Absalom’s servants came to the woman at the house, they asked, “Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?” “They have crossed over the brook,” she replied. The men searched but did not find them, so they returned to Jerusalem.
21他们走后，二人从井里上来，去告诉 大卫 王说：「 亚希多弗 如此如此定计害你，你们务要起来，快快过河。」
21After the men had gone, Ahimaaz and Jonathan climbed up out of the well and went to inform King David, saying, “Get up and cross over the river at once, for Ahithophel has given this advice against you.”
22于是 大卫 和跟随他的人都起来，过 约旦河 。到了天亮，无一人不过 约旦河 的。
22So David and all the people with him got up and crossed the Jordan. By daybreak, there was no one left who had not crossed the Jordan.
23亚希多弗 见不依从他的计谋，就备上驴，归回本城；到了家，留下遗言，便吊死了，葬在他父亲的坟墓里。
23When Ahithophel saw that his advice had not been followed, he saddled his donkey and set out for his house in his hometown. He put his affairs in order and hanged himself. So he died and was buried in his father’s tomb.
24大卫 到了 玛哈念 ， 押沙龙 和跟随他的 以色列 人也都过了 约旦河 。
24Then David went to Mahanaim, and Absalom crossed the Jordan with all the men of Israel.
25押沙龙 立 亚玛撒 作元帅，代替 约押 。 亚玛撒 是 以实玛利 人 以特拉 的儿子。 以特拉 曾与 拿辖 的女儿 亚比该 亲近；这 亚比该 与 约押 的母亲 洗鲁雅 是姊妹。
25Absalom had appointed Amasa over the army in place of Joab. Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra, the Ishmaelite who had married Abigail, the daughter of Nahash and sister of Zeruiah the mother of Joab.
26押沙龙 和 以色列 人都安营在 基列 地。
26So the Israelites and Absalom camped in the land of Gilead.
27大卫 到了 玛哈念 ， 亚扪 族的 拉巴 人 拿辖 的儿子 朔比 ， 罗·底巴 人 亚米利 的儿子 玛吉 ， 基列 的 罗基琳 人 巴西莱 ，
27When David came to Mahanaim, he was met by Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, Machir son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim.
28带着被、褥、盆、碗、瓦器、小麦、大麦、麦面、炒 谷 、豆子、红豆、炒 豆 、
28They brought beds, basins, and earthen vessels, as well as wheat, barley, flour, roasted grain, beans, lentils,
29蜂蜜、奶油、绵羊、奶饼，供给 大卫 和跟随他的人吃；他们说：「民在旷野，必饥渴困乏了。」
29honey, curds, sheep, and cheese from the herd for David and his people to eat. For they said, “The people have become hungry, exhausted, and thirsty in the wilderness.”
