World English Bible
1大衛 王年紀老邁，雖用被遮蓋，仍不覺暖。
1Now King David was old and advanced in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he couldn’t keep warm.
2所以臣僕對他說：「不如為我主我王尋找一個處女，使她伺候王，奉養王，睡在王的懷中，好叫我主我王得暖。」
2Therefore his servants said to him, “Let a young virgin be sought for my lord the king. Let her stand before the king, and cherish him; and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may keep warm.”
3於是在 以色列 全境尋找美貌的童女，尋得 書念 的一個童女 亞比煞 ，就帶到王那裏。
3So they sought for a beautiful young lady throughout all the borders of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
4這童女極其美貌，她奉養王，伺候王，王卻沒有與她親近。
4The young lady was very beautiful; and she cherished the king, and served him; but the king didn’t know her intimately.
5那時， 哈及 的兒子 亞多尼雅 自尊，說：「我必作王」，就為自己預備車輛、馬兵，又派五十人在他前頭奔走。
5Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, “I will be king.” Then he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
6他父親素來沒有使他憂悶，說：「你是做甚麼呢？」他甚俊美，生在 押沙龍 之後。
6His father had not displeased him at any time in saying, “Why have you done so?” and he was also a very handsome man; and he was born after Absalom.
7亞多尼雅 與 洗魯雅 的兒子 約押 ，和祭司 亞比亞他 商議；二人就順從他，幫助他。
7He conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the priest; and they followed Adonijah and helped him.
8但祭司 撒督 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 、先知 拿單 、 示每 、 利以 ，並 大衛 的勇士都不順從 亞多尼雅 。
8But Zadok the priest, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.
9一日， 亞多尼雅 在 隱‧羅結 旁、 瑣希列 磐石那裏宰了牛羊、肥犢，請他的諸弟兄，就是王的眾子，並所有作王臣僕的 猶大 人；
9Adonijah killed sheep, cattle, and fatlings by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En Rogel; and he called all his brothers, the king’s sons, and all the men of Judah, the king’s servants;
10惟獨先知 拿單 和 比拿雅 並勇士，與他的兄弟 所羅門 ，他都沒有請。
10but he didn’t call Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother.
11拿單 對 所羅門 的母親 拔示巴 說：「 哈及 的兒子 亞多尼雅 作王了，你沒有聽見嗎？我們的主 大衛 卻不知道。
11Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, “Haven’t you heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith reigns, and David our lord doesn’t know it?
12現在我可以給你出個主意，好保全你和你兒子 所羅門 的性命。
12Now therefore come, please let me give you counsel, that you may save your own life and your son Solomon’s life.
13你進去見 大衛 王，對他說：『我主我王啊，你不曾向婢女起誓說：你兒子 所羅門 必接續我作王，坐在我的位上嗎？現在 亞多尼雅 怎麼作了王呢？』
13Go in to King David, and tell him, ‘Didn’t you, my lord the king, swear to your servant, saying, “Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? Why then does Adonijah reign?’
14你還與王說話的時候，我也隨後進去，證實你的話。」
14Behold, while you are still talking there with the king, I will also come in after you and confirm your words.”
15拔示巴 進入內室見王，王甚老邁， 書念 的童女 亞比煞 正伺候王。
15Bathsheba went in to the king in his room. The king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite was serving the king.
16拔示巴 向王屈身下拜；王說：「你要甚麼？」
16Bathsheba bowed and showed respect to the king. The king said, “What would you like?”
17她說：「我主啊，你曾向婢女指着耶和華－你的上帝起誓 說 ：『你兒子 所羅門 必接續我作王，坐在我的位上。』
17She said to him, “My lord, you swore by the LORD your God to your servant, ‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.’
18現在 亞多尼雅 作王了，我主我王卻不知道。
18Now, behold, Adonijah reigns; and you, my lord the king, don’t know it.
19他宰了許多牛羊、肥犢，請了王的眾子和祭司 亞比亞他 ，並元帥 約押 ；惟獨王的僕人 所羅門 ，他沒有請。
19He has slain cattle and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has called all the sons of the king, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the army; but he hasn’t called Solomon your servant.
20我主我王啊， 以色列 眾人的眼目都仰望你，等你曉諭他們，在我主我王之後誰坐你的位。
20You, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, that you should tell them who will sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
21若不然，到我主我王與列祖同睡以後，我和我兒子 所羅門 必算為罪人了。」
21Otherwise it will happen, when my lord the king sleeps with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be considered criminals.”
22拔示巴 還與王說話的時候，先知 拿單 也進來了。
22Behold, while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.
23有人奏告王說：「先知 拿單 來了。」 拿單 進到王前，臉伏於地。
23They told the king, saying, “Behold, Nathan the prophet!” When he had come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
24拿單 說：「我主我王果然應許 亞多尼雅 說『你必接續我作王，坐在我的位上』嗎？
24Nathan said, “My lord, King, have you said, ‘Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne’?
25他今日下去，宰了許多牛羊、肥犢，請了王的眾子和軍長，並祭司 亞比亞他 ；他們正在 亞多尼雅 面前吃喝，說：『願 亞多尼雅 王萬歲！』
25For he has gone down today, and has slain cattle, fatlings, and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king’s sons, the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest. Behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and saying, ‘Long live King Adonijah!’
26惟獨我，就是你的僕人和祭司 撒督 ， 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，並王的僕人 所羅門 ，他都沒有請。
26But he hasn’t called me, even me your servant, Zadok the priest, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon.
27這事果然出乎我主我王嗎？王卻沒有告訴僕人們，在我主我王之後誰坐你的位。」
27Was this thing done by my lord the king, and you haven’t shown to your servants who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?”
28大衛 王吩咐說：「叫 拔示巴 來。」 拔示巴 就進來，站在王面前。
28Then King David answered, “Call Bathsheba in to me.” She came into the king’s presence and stood before the king.
29王起誓說：「我指着救我性命脫離一切苦難、永生的耶和華起誓。
29The king vowed and said, “As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
30我既然指着耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝向你起誓說：你兒子 所羅門 必接續我作王，坐在我的位上。我今日就必照這話而行。」
30most certainly as I swore to you by the LORD, the God of Israel, saying, ‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne in my place;’ I will most certainly do this today.”
31於是， 拔示巴 臉伏於地，向王下拜，說：「願我主 大衛 王萬歲！」
31Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth and showed respect to the king, and said, “Let my lord King David live forever!”
32大衛 王又吩咐說：「將祭司 撒督 、先知 拿單 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 召來！」他們就都來到王面前。
32King David said, “Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada.” They came before the king.
33王對他們說：「要帶領你們主的僕人，使我兒子 所羅門 騎我的騾子，送他下到 基訓 ；
33The king said to them, “Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride on my own mule, and bring him down to Gihon.
34在那裏，祭司 撒督 和先知 拿單 要膏他作 以色列 的王；你們也要吹角，說：『願 所羅門 王萬歲！』
34Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel. Blow the trumpet, and say, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
35然後要跟隨他上來，使他坐在我的位上，接續我作王。我已立他作 以色列 和 猶大 的君。」
35Then come up after him, and he shall come and sit on my throne; for he shall be king in my place. I have appointed him to be prince over Israel and over Judah.”
36耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 對王說：「阿們！願耶和華－我主我王的上帝也這樣命定。
36Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, “Amen. May the LORD, the God of my lord the king, say so.
37耶和華怎樣與我主我王同在，願他照樣與 所羅門 同在，使他的國位比我主 大衛 王的國位更大。」
37As the LORD has been with my lord the king, even so may he be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord King David.”
38於是，祭司 撒督 、先知 拿單 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，和 基利提 人、 比利提 人都下去使 所羅門 騎 大衛 王的騾子，將他送到 基訓 。
38So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon ride on King David’s mule, and brought him to Gihon.
39祭司 撒督 就從帳幕中取了盛膏油的角來，用膏膏 所羅門 。人就吹角，眾民都說：「願 所羅門 王萬歲！」
39Zadok the priest took the horn of oil from the Tent, and anointed Solomon. They blew the trumpet; and all the people said, “Long live King Solomon!”
40眾民跟隨他上來，且吹笛，大大歡呼，聲音震地。
40All the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth shook with their sound.
41亞多尼雅 和所請的眾客筵宴方畢，聽見這聲音； 約押 聽見角聲就說：「城中為何有這響聲呢？」
41Adonijah and all the guests who were with him heard it as they had finished eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, “Why is this noise of the city being in an uproar?”
42他正說話的時候，祭司 亞比亞他 的兒子 約拿單 來了。 亞多尼雅 對他說：「進來吧！你是個忠義的人，必是報好信息。」
42While he yet spoke, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came; and Adonijah said, “Come in; for you are a worthy man, and bring good news.”
43約拿單 對 亞多尼雅 說：「我們的主 大衛 王誠然立 所羅門 為王了。
43Jonathan answered Adonijah, “Most certainly our lord King David has made Solomon king.
44王差遣祭司 撒督 、先知 拿單 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，和 基利提 人、 比利提 人都去使 所羅門 騎王的騾子。
44The king has sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they have caused him to ride on the king’s mule.
45祭司 撒督 和先知 拿單 在 基訓 已經膏他作王。眾人都從那裏歡呼着上來，聲音使城震動，這就是你們所聽見的聲音；
45Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon. They have come up from there rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that you have heard.
46並且 所羅門 登了國位。
46Also, Solomon sits on the throne of the kingdom.
47王的臣僕也來為我們的主 大衛 王祝福，說：『願王的上帝使 所羅門 的名比王的名更尊榮；使他的國位比王的國位更大。』王就在床上屈身下拜。
47Moreover the king’s servants came to bless our lord King David, saying, ‘May your God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne;’ and the king bowed himself on the bed.
48王又說：『耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝是應當稱頌的；因他賜我一人今日坐在我的位上，我也親眼看見了。』」
48Also thus said the king, ‘Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who has given one to sit on my throne today, my eyes even seeing it.’”
49亞多尼雅 的眾客 聽見這話 就都驚懼，起來四散。
49All the guests of Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and each man went his way.
50亞多尼雅 懼怕 所羅門 ，就起來，去抓住祭壇的角。
50Adonijah was afraid because of Solomon; and he arose, and went, and hung onto the horns of the altar.
51有人告訴 所羅門 說：「 亞多尼雅 懼怕 所羅門 王，現在抓住祭壇的角，說：『願 所羅門 王今日向我起誓，必不用刀殺僕人。』」
51Solomon was told, “Behold, Adonijah fears King Solomon; for, behold, he is hanging onto the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon swear to me first that he will not kill his servant with the sword.’”
52所羅門 說：「他若作忠義的人，連一根頭髮也不致落在地上；他若行惡，必要死亡。」
52Solomon said, “If he shows himself a worthy man, not a hair of his shall fall to the earth; but if wickedness is found in him, he shall die.”
53於是 所羅門 王差遣人，使 亞多尼雅 從壇上下來，他就來，向 所羅門 王下拜； 所羅門 對他說：「你回家去吧！」
53So King Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. He came and bowed down to King Solomon; and Solomon said to him, “Go to your house.”
