撒母耳记下 17
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
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 ,
1Moreover Ahithophel said unto Absalom: 'Let me now choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David this night;
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,
2and I will come upon him while he is weary and weak-handed, and will make him afraid; and all the people that are with him shall flee; and I will smite the king only;
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 I will bring back all the people unto thee; when all shall have returned, save the man whom thou seekest, all the people will be in peace.'
4押沙龙 和 以色列 的长老都以这话为美。
4And the saying pleased Absalom well, 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 said Absalom: 'Call now Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he saith.'
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!」
6And when Hushai was come to Absalom, Absalom spoke unto him, saying: 'Ahithophel hath spoken after this manner; shall we do after his saying? if not, speak thou.'
7户筛 对 押沙龙 说:「 亚希多弗 这次所定的谋不善。」
7And Hushai said unto Absalom: 'The counsel that Ahithophel hath given this time is not good.'
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。
8Hushai said moreover: 'Thou knowest thy father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are embittered in their minds, as a bear robbed of her whelps in the field; and thy father is a man of war, and will not lodge with the people.
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。』
9Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or in some place; and it will come to pass, when they fall upon them at the first, and whosoever heareth it shall say: There is a slaughter among the people that 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 he that is valiant, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, will utterly melt; for all Israel knoweth that thy father is a mighty man, and they that are with him are valiant men.
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。
11But I counsel that all Israel be gathered together unto thee, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person.
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。
12So shall we come upon him in some place where he shall be found, and we will light upon him as the dew falleth on the ground; and of him and of all the men that are with him we will not leave so much as one.
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。」
13Moreover, if he withdraw himself into a city, then shall all Israel bring up ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the valley until there be not one small stone found there.'
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 。
14And Absalom and all the men of Israel said: 'The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel.' — For the LORD had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon 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。
15Then said Hushai unto Zadok and to Abiathar the priests: 'Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.
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 therefore send quickly, and tell David, saying: Lodge not this night in the plains of the wilderness, but in any wise pass over; lest the king be swallowed up, and all the people that are with him.'
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 stayed by En-rogel; and a maid-servant used to go and tell them; and they went and told king David; for they might not be seen to come into 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 lad saw them, and told Absalom; and they went both of them away quickly, and came to the house of a man in Bahurim, who had a well in his court; and they went down thither.
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。
19And the woman took and spread the covering over the well's mouth, and strewed groats thereon; and nothing was known.
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。
20And Absalom's servants came to the woman to the house; and they said: 'Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?' And the woman said unto them: 'They are gone over the brook of water.' And when they had sought and could not find them, 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。」
21And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David; and they said unto David: 'Arise ye, and pass quickly over the water; for thus hath Ahithophel counselled 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。
22Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over the Jordan; by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over 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。
23And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his ass, and arose, and got him home, unto his city, and set his house in order, and strangled himself; and he died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.
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 。
24When David was come to Mahanaim, Absalom passed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
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。
25And Absalom had set Amasa over the host instead of Joab. Now Amasa was the son of a man, whose name was Ithra the Jesraelite, that went in to Abigal the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's mother.
26押沙龙 和 以色列 人都安营在 基列 地。
26And Israel and Absalom pitched 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 ,
27And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
28带着被、褥、盆、碗、瓦器、小麦、大麦、麦面、炒 谷 、豆子、红豆、炒 豆 、
28brought beds, and basins, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and meal, and parched corn, and beans, and lentils, and parched pulse,
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。」
29and honey, and curd, and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat; for they said: 'The people is hungry, and faint, and thirsty, in the wilderness.'
