撒母耳记下 19
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1有人告诉 约押 说:「王为 押沙龙 哭泣悲哀。」
1Joab was told, “Behold, the king weeps and mourns for Absalom.”
2众民听说王为他儿子忧愁,他们得胜的欢乐却变成悲哀。
2The victory that day was turned into mourning among all the people, for the people heard it said that day, “The king grieves for his son.”
3那日众民暗暗地进城,就如败阵逃跑、惭愧的民一般。
3The people sneaked into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.
4王蒙着脸,大声哭号说:「我儿 押沙龙 啊! 押沙龙 ,我儿,我儿啊!」
4The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, “My son Absalom, Absalom, my son, my son!”
5约押 进去见王,说:「你今日使你一切仆人脸面惭愧了!他们今日救了你的性命和你儿女妻妾的性命,
5Joab came into the house to the king, and said, “Today you have shamed the faces of all your servants who today have saved your life, and the lives of your sons and of your daughters, and the lives of your wives, and the lives of your concubines;
6你却爱那恨你的人,恨那爱你的人。你今日明明地不以将帅、仆人为念。我今日看明,若 押沙龙 活着,我们都死亡,你就喜悦了。
6in that you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have declared today that princes and servants are nothing to you. For today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and we had all died today, then it would have pleased you well.
7现在你当出去,安慰你仆人的心。我指着耶和华起誓:你若不出去,今夜必无一人与你同在一处;这祸患就比你从幼年到如今所遭的更甚!」
7Now therefore arise, go out and speak to comfort your servants; for I swear by the LORD, if you don’t go out, not a man will stay with you this night. That would be worse to you than all the evil that has happened to you from your youth until now.”
8于是王起来,坐在城门口。众民听说王坐在城门口,就都到王面前。 以色列 人已经逃跑,各回各家去了。
8Then the king arose and sat in the gate. The people were all told, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” All the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent.
9以色列 众支派的人纷纷议论说:「王曾救我们脱离仇敌的手,又救我们脱离 非利士 人的手,现在他躲避 押沙龙 逃走了。
9All the people were at strife throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us out of the hand of our enemies, and he saved us out of the hand of the Philistines; and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
10我们膏 押沙龙 治理我们,他已经阵亡。现在为什么不出一言请王回来呢?」
10Absalom, whom we anointed over us, is dead in battle. Now therefore why don’t you speak a word of bringing the king back?”
11大卫 王差人去见祭司 撒督 和 亚比亚他 ,说:「你们当向 犹大 长老说:『 以色列 众人已经有话请王回宫,你们为什么落在他们后头呢?
11King David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, “Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, ‘Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the speech of all Israel has come to the king, to return him to his house?
12你们是我的弟兄,是我的骨肉,为什么在人后头请王回来呢?』
12You are my brothers. You are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?’
13也要对 亚玛撒 说:『你不是我的骨肉吗?我若不立你替 约押 常作元帅,愿 神重重地降罚与我!』」
13Say to Amasa, ‘Aren’t you my bone and my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if you aren’t captain of the army before me continually instead of Joab.’”
14如此就挽回 犹大 众人的心,如同一人的心。他们便打发人去见王,说:「请王和王的一切臣仆回来。」
14He bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as one man, so that they sent to the king, saying, “Return, you and all your servants.”
15王就回来,到了 约旦河 。 犹大 人来到 吉甲 ,要去迎接王,请他过 约旦河 。
15So the king returned, and came to the Jordan. Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to bring the king over the Jordan.
16巴户琳 的 便雅悯 人、 基拉 的儿子 示每 急忙与 犹大 人一同下去迎接 大卫 王。
16Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite, who was of Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.
17跟从 示每 的有一千 便雅悯 人,还有 扫罗 家的仆人 洗巴 和他十五个儿子,二十个仆人;他们都趟过 约旦河 迎接王。
17There were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of Saul’s house, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went through the Jordan in the presence of the king.
18有摆渡船过去,渡王的家眷,任王使用。 王要过 约旦河 的时候, 基拉 的儿子 示每 就俯伏在王面前,
18A ferry boat went to bring over the king’s household, and to do what he thought good. Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king when he had come over the Jordan.
19对王说:「我主我王出 耶路撒冷 的时候,仆人行悖逆的事,现在求我主不要因此加罪与仆人,不要记念,也不要放在心上。
19He said to the king, “Don’t let my lord impute iniquity to me, or remember that which your servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to his heart.
20仆人明知自己有罪,所以 约瑟 全家之中,今日我首先下来迎接我主我王。」
20For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore behold, I have come today as the first of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king.”
21洗鲁雅 的儿子 亚比筛 说:「 示每 既咒骂耶和华的受膏者,不应当治死他吗?」
21But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered, “Shouldn’t Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD’s anointed?”
22大卫 说:「 洗鲁雅 的儿子,我与你们有何关涉,使你们今日与我反对呢?今日在 以色列 中岂可治死人呢?我岂不知今日我作 以色列 的王吗?」
22David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For don’t I know that I am king over Israel today?”
23于是王对 示每 说:「你必不死。」王就向他起誓。
23The king said to Shimei, “You will not die.” The king swore to him.
24扫罗 的孙子 米非波设 也下去迎接王。他自从王去的日子,直到王平平安安地回来,没有修脚,没有剃胡须,也没有洗衣服。
24Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king; and he had neither groomed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.
25他来到 耶路撒冷 迎接王的时候,王问他说:「 米非波设 ,你为什么没有与我同去呢?」
25When he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why didn’t you go with me, Mephibosheth?”
26他回答说:「我主我王,仆人是瘸腿的。那日我想要备驴骑上,与王同去,无奈我的仆人欺哄了我,
26He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go with the king,’ because your servant is lame.
27又在我主我王面前谗毁我。然而我主我王如同 神的使者一般,你看怎样好,就怎样行吧!
27He has slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is as an angel of God. Therefore do what is good in your eyes.
28因为我祖全家的人,在我主我王面前都算为死人,王却使仆人在王的席上同人吃饭,我现在向王还能辨理诉冤吗?」
28For all my father’s house were but dead men before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right therefore have I yet that I should appeal any more to the king?”
29王对他说:「你何必再提你的事呢?我说,你与 洗巴 均分地土。」
29The king said to him, “Why do you speak any more of your matters? I say, you and Ziba divide the land.”
30米非波设 对王说:「我主我王既平平安安地回宫,就任凭 洗巴 都取了也可以。」
30Mephibosheth said to the king, “Yes, let him take all, because my lord the king has come in peace to his own house.”
31基列 人 巴西莱 从 罗基琳 下来,要送王过 约旦河 ,就与王一同过了 约旦河 。
31Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim; and he went over the Jordan with the king to conduct him over the Jordan.
32巴西莱 年纪老迈,已经八十岁了。王住在 玛哈念 的时候,他就拿食物来供给王;他原是大富户。
32Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even eighty years old. He had provided the king with sustenance while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.
33王对 巴西莱 说:「你与我同去,我要在 耶路撒冷 那里养你的老。」
33The king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will sustain you with me in Jerusalem.”
34巴西莱 对王说:「我在世的年日还能有多少,使我与王同上 耶路撒冷 呢?
34Barzillai said to the king, “How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?
35仆人现在八十岁了,还能尝出饮食的滋味、辨别美恶吗?还能听男女歌唱的声音吗?仆人何必累赘我主我王呢?
35I am eighty years old, today. Can I discern between good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear the voice of singing men and singing women any more? Why then should your servant be a burden to my lord the king?
36仆人只要送王过 约旦河 ,王何必赐我这样的恩典呢?
36Your servant will just go over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
37求你准我回去,好死在我本城, 葬在 我父母的墓旁。这里有王的仆人 金罕 ,让他同我主我王过去,可以随意待他。」
37Please let your servant turn back again, that I may die in my own city, by the grave of my father and my mother. But behold, your servant Chimham; let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what shall seem good to you.”
38王说:「 金罕 可以与我同去,我必照你的心愿待他。你向我求什么,我都必为你成就。」
38The king answered, “Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which shall seem good to you. Whatever you request of me, that I will do for you.”
39于是众民过 约旦河 ,王也过去。王与 巴西莱 亲嘴,为他祝福, 巴西莱 就回本地去了。
39All the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. Then the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him; and he returned to his own place.
40王过去,到了 吉甲 , 金罕 也跟他过去。 犹大 众民和 以色列 民的一半也都送王过去。
40So the king went over to Gilgal, and Chimham went over with him. All the people of Judah brought the king over, and also half the people of Israel.
41以色列 众人来见王,对他说:「我们弟兄 犹大 人为什么暗暗送王和王的家眷,并跟随王的人过 约旦河 ?」
41Behold, all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away, and brought the king and his household, over the Jordan, and all David’s men with him?”
42犹大 众人回答 以色列 人说:「因为王与我们是亲属,你们为何因这事发怒呢?我们吃了王的什么呢?王赏赐了我们什么呢?」
42All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is a close relative to us. Why then are you angry about this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king’s cost? Or has he given us any gift?”
43以色列 人回答 犹大 人说:「按支派,我们与王有十分的情分;在 大卫 身上,我们也比你们更有情分。你们为何藐视我们,请王回来不先与我们商量呢?」 但 犹大 人的话比 以色列 人的话更硬。
43The men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten parts in the king, and we have also more claim to David than you. Why then did you despise us, that our advice should not be first had in bringing back our king?” The words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
