撒母耳记下 2
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1此后, 大卫 问耶和华说:「我上 犹大 的一个城去可以吗?」耶和华说:「可以。」 大卫 说:「我上哪一个城去呢?」耶和华说:「上 希伯 去。」
1After this, David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?” The LORD said to him, “Go up.” David said, “Where shall I go up?” He said, “To Hebron.”
2于是 大卫 和他的两个妻—一个是 耶斯列 人 亚希暖 ,一个是作过 迦密 人 拿八 妻的 亚比该 —都上那里去了。
2So David went up there with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite.
3大卫 也将跟随他的人和他们各人的眷属一同带上去,住在 希伯 的城邑中。
3David brought up his men who were with him, every man with his household. They lived in the cities of Hebron.
4犹大 人来到 希伯 ,在那里膏 大卫 作 犹大 家的王。 有人告诉 大卫 说:「葬埋 扫罗 的是 基列·雅比 人。」
4The men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. They told David, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were those who buried Saul.”
5大卫 就差人去见 基列·雅比 人,对他们说:「你们厚待你们的主— 扫罗 ,将他葬埋。愿耶和华赐福与你们!
5David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, “Blessed are you by the LORD, that you have shown this kindness to your lord, even to Saul, and have buried him.
6你们既行了这事,愿耶和华以慈爱诚实待你们,我也要为此厚待你们。
6Now may the LORD show loving kindness and truth to you. I also will reward you for this kindness, because you have done this thing.
7现在你们的主— 扫罗 死了, 犹大 家已经膏我作他们的王,所以你们要刚强奋勇。」
7Now therefore let your hands be strong, and be valiant; for Saul your lord is dead, and also the house of Judah have anointed me king over them.”
8扫罗 的元帅 尼珥 的儿子 押尼珥 ,曾将 扫罗 的儿子 伊施波设 带过 河 ,到 玛哈念 ,
8Now Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul’s army, had taken Ishbosheth the son of Saul and brought him over to Mahanaim.
9立他作王,治理 基列 、 亚书利 、 耶斯列 、 以法莲 、 便雅悯 ,和 以色列 众人。
9He made him king over Gilead, over the Ashurites, over Jezreel, over Ephraim, over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
10扫罗 的儿子 伊施波设 登基的时候年四十岁,作 以色列 王二年;惟独 犹大 家归从 大卫 。
10Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
11大卫 在 希伯 作 犹大 家的王,共七年零六个月。
11The time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
12尼珥 的儿子 押尼珥 和 扫罗 的儿子 伊施波设 的仆人从 玛哈念 出来,往 基遍 去。
12Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
13洗鲁雅 的儿子 约押 和 大卫 的仆人也出来,在 基遍 池旁与他们相遇;一班坐在池这边,一班坐在池那边。
13Joab the son of Zeruiah and David’s servants went out, and met them by the pool of Gibeon; and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool and the other on the other side of the pool.
14押尼珥 对 约押 说:「让少年人起来,在我们面前戏耍吧!」 约押 说:「可以。」
14Abner said to Joab, “Please let the young men arise and compete before us!” Joab said, “Let them arise!”
15就按着定数起来:属 扫罗 儿子 伊施波设 的 便雅悯 人过去十二名, 大卫 的仆人也过去十二名,
15Then they arose and went over by number: twelve for Benjamin and for Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of David’s servants.
16彼此揪头,用刀刺肋,一同仆倒。所以,那地叫做 希利甲·哈素林 ,就在 基遍 。
16They each caught his opponent by the head and thrust his sword in his fellow’s side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place in Gibeon was called Helkath Hazzurim.
17那日的战事凶猛, 押尼珥 和 以色列 人败在 大卫 的仆人面前。
17The battle was very severe that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before David’s servants.
18在那里有 洗鲁雅 的三个儿子: 约押 、 亚比筛 、 亚撒黑 。 亚撒黑 脚快如野鹿一般;
18The three sons of Zeruiah were there: Joab, Abishai, and Asahel. Asahel was as light of foot as a wild gazelle.
19亚撒黑 追赶 押尼珥 ,直追赶他不偏左右。
19Asahel pursued Abner. He didn’t turn to the right hand or to the left from following Abner.
20押尼珥 回头说:「你是 亚撒黑 吗?」回答说:「是。」
20Then Abner looked behind him and said, “Is that you, Asahel?” He answered, “It is.”
21押尼珥 对他说:「你或转向左转向右,拿住一个少年人,剥去他的战衣。」 亚撒黑 却不肯转开不追赶他。
21Abner said to him, “Turn away to your right hand or to your left, and grab one of the young men, and take his armor.” But Asahel would not turn away from following him.
22押尼珥 又对 亚撒黑 说:「你转开不追赶我吧!我何必杀你呢?若杀你,有什么脸见你哥哥 约押 呢?」
22Abner said again to Asahel, “Turn away from following me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then could I look Joab your brother in the face?”
23亚撒黑 仍不肯转开。故此, 押尼珥 就用枪 刺入他的肚腹,甚至枪从背后透出, 亚撒黑 就在那里仆倒而死。众人赶到 亚撒黑 仆倒而死的地方,就都站住。
23However, he refused to turn away. Therefore Abner with the back end of the spear struck him in the body, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there and died in the same place. As many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.
24约押 和 亚比筛 追赶 押尼珥 ,日落的时候,到了通 基遍 旷野的路旁, 基亚 对面的 亚玛山 。
24But Joab and Abishai pursued Abner. The sun went down when they had come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
25便雅悯 人聚集,跟随 押尼珥 站在一个山顶上。
25The children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner and became one band, and stood on the top of a hill.
26押尼珥 呼叫 约押 说:「刀剑岂可永远杀人吗?你岂不知终久必有苦楚吗?你要等何时才叫百姓回去、不追赶弟兄呢?」
26Then Abner called to Joab, and said, “Shall the sword devour forever? Don’t you know that it will be bitterness in the latter end? How long will it be then, before you ask the people to return from following their brothers?”
27约押 说:「我指着永生的 神起誓:你若不说 戏耍的 那句话,今日早晨百姓就回去,不追赶弟兄了。」
27Joab said, “As God lives, if you had not spoken, surely then in the morning the people would have gone away, and not each followed his brother.”
28于是 约押 吹角,众民就站住,不再追赶 以色列 人,也不再打仗了。
28So Joab blew the trumpet; and all the people stood still and pursued Israel no more, and they fought no more.
29押尼珥 和跟随他的人整夜经过 亚拉巴 ,过 约旦河 ,走过 毕伦 ,到了 玛哈念 。
29Abner and his men went all that night through the Arabah; and they passed over the Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and came to Mahanaim.
30约押 追赶 押尼珥 回来,聚集众民,见 大卫 的仆人中缺少了十九个人和 亚撒黑 。
30Joab returned from following Abner; and when he had gathered all the people together, nineteen men of David’s and Asahel were missing.
31但 大卫 的仆人杀了 便雅悯 人和跟随 押尼珥 的人,共三百六十名。
31But David’s servants had struck Benjamin and Abner’s men so that three hundred sixty men died.
32众人将 亚撒黑 送到 伯利恒 ,葬在他父亲的坟墓里。 约押 和跟随他的人走了一夜,天亮的时候到了 希伯 。
32They took up Asahel and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. Joab and his men went all night, and the day broke on them at Hebron.
