撒母耳記上 19
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1掃羅 對他兒子 約拿單 和眾臣僕說，要殺 大衛 ； 掃羅 的兒子 約拿單 卻甚喜愛 大衛 。
1Then Saul ordered his son Jonathan and all his servants to kill David. But Jonathan delighted greatly in David,
2約拿單 告訴 大衛 說：「我父 掃羅 想要殺你，所以明日早晨你要小心，到一個僻靜地方藏身。
2so he warned David, saying, “My father Saul intends to kill you. Be on your guard in the morning; find a secret place and hide there.
3我就出到你所藏的田裏，站在我父親旁邊與他談論。我看他情形怎樣，我必告訴你。」
3I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, so I can ask about you. And if I find out anything, I will tell you.”
4約拿單 向他父親 掃羅 替 大衛 說好話，說：「王不可得罪王的僕人 大衛 ；因為他未曾得罪你，他所行的都與你大有益處。
4Then Jonathan spoke well of David to his father Saul and said to him, “The king should not sin against his servant David; he has not sinned against you. In fact, his actions have been highly beneficial to you.
5他拚命殺那 非利士 人，耶和華為 以色列 眾人大行拯救；那時你看見，甚是歡喜，現在為何無故要殺 大衛 ，流無辜人的血，自己取罪呢？」
5He took his life in his hands when he struck down the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great salvation for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced, so why would you sin against innocent blood by killing David for no reason?”
6掃羅 聽了 約拿單 的話，就指着永生的耶和華起誓說：「我必不殺他。」
6Saul listened to the voice of Jonathan and swore an oath: “As surely as the LORD lives, David will not be put to death.”
7約拿單 叫 大衛 來，把這一切事告訴他，帶他去見 掃羅 。他就仍然侍立在 掃羅 面前。
7So Jonathan summoned David and told him all these things. Then Jonathan brought David to Saul to serve him as he had before.
8此後又有爭戰的事。 大衛 出去與 非利士 人打仗，大大殺敗他們，他們就在他面前逃跑。
8When war broke out again, David went out and fought the Philistines and struck them with such a mighty blow that they fled before him.
9從耶和華那裏來的惡魔又降在 掃羅 身上（ 掃羅 手裏拿槍坐在屋裏）， 大衛 就用手彈琴。
9But as Saul was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand, a spirit of distress from the LORD came upon him. While David was playing the harp,
10掃羅 用槍想要刺透 大衛 ，釘在牆上，他卻躲開， 掃羅 的槍刺入牆內。當夜 大衛 逃走，躲避了。
10Saul tried to pin him to the wall with his spear. But the spear struck the wall and David eluded him, ran away, and escaped that night.
11掃羅 打發人到 大衛 的房屋那裏窺探他，要等到天亮殺他。 大衛 的妻 米甲 對他說：「你今夜若不逃命，明日你要被殺。」
11Then Saul sent messengers to David’s house to watch him and kill him in the morning. But David’s wife Michal warned him, “If you do not run for your life tonight, tomorrow you will be dead!”
12於是 米甲 將 大衛 從窗戶裏縋下去， 大衛 就逃走，躲避了。
12So Michal lowered David from the window, and he ran away and escaped.
13米甲 把家中的神像放在床上，頭枕在山羊毛裝的枕頭上，用被遮蓋。
13Then Michal took a household idol and laid it in the bed, placed some goat hair on its head, and covered it with a garment.
14掃羅 打發人去捉拿 大衛 ， 米甲 說：「他病了。」
14When Saul sent the messengers to seize David, Michal said, “He is ill.”
15掃羅 又打發人去看 大衛 ，說：「當連床將他抬來，我好殺他。」
15But Saul sent the messengers back to see David and told them, “Bring him up to me in his bed so I can kill him.”
16使者進去，看見床上有神像，頭枕在山羊毛裝的枕頭上。
16And when the messengers entered, there was the idol in the bed with the quilt of goats’ hair on its head.
17掃羅 對 米甲 說：「你為甚麼這樣欺哄我，放我仇敵逃走呢？」 米甲 回答說：「他對我說：『你放我走，不然我要殺你。』」
17And Saul said to Michal, “Why did you deceive me like this? You sent my enemy away and he has escaped!” Michal replied, “He said to me, ‘Help me get away, or I will kill you!’”
18大衛 逃避，來到 拉瑪 見 撒母耳 ，將 掃羅 向他所行的事述說了一遍。他和 撒母耳 就往 拿約 去居住。
18So David ran away and escaped. And he went to Samuel at Ramah and told him all that Saul had done to him. Then he and Samuel went to Naioth and stayed there.
19有人告訴 掃羅 ，說 大衛 在 拉瑪 的 拿約 。
19When Saul was told that David was at Naioth in Ramah,
20掃羅 打發人去捉拿 大衛 。去的人見有一班先知都受感說話， 撒母耳 站在其中監管他們；打發去的人也受上帝的靈感動說話。
20he sent messengers to capture him. But when they saw the group of prophets prophesying, with Samuel leading them, the Spirit of God came upon them, and Saul’s messengers also began to prophesy.
21有人將這事告訴 掃羅 ，他又打發人去，他們也受感說話。 掃羅 第三次打發人去，他們也受感說話。
21When this was reported to Saul, he sent more messengers, but they began to prophesy as well. So Saul tried again and sent messengers a third time, and even they began to prophesy.
22然後 掃羅 自己往 拉瑪 去，到了 西沽 的大井，問人說：「 撒母耳 和 大衛 在哪裏呢？」有人說：「在 拉瑪 的 拿約 。」
22Finally, Saul himself left for Ramah and came to the large cistern at Secu, where he asked, “Where are Samuel and David?” “At Naioth in Ramah,” he was told.
23他就往 拉瑪 的 拿約 去。上帝的靈也感動他，一面走一面說話，直到 拉瑪 的 拿約 。
23So Saul went to Naioth in Ramah. But the Spirit of God came upon even Saul, and he walked along prophesying until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
24他就脫了衣服，在 撒母耳 面前受感說話，一晝一夜露體躺臥。因此有句俗語說：「 掃羅 也列在先知中嗎？」
24Then Saul stripped off his robes and also prophesied before Samuel. And he collapsed and lay naked all that day and night. That is why it is said, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
