列王紀下 4
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1有一個先知門徒的妻哀求 以利沙 說：「你僕人－我丈夫死了，他敬畏耶和華是你所知道的。現在有債主來，要取我兩個兒子作奴僕。」
1Now a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets cried out to Elisha, saying, “Your servant my husband is dead. You know that your servant feared the LORD. Now the creditor has come to take for himself my two children to be slaves.”
2以利沙 問她說：「我可以為你做甚麼呢？你告訴我，你家裏有甚麼？」她說：「婢女家中除了一瓶油之外，沒有甚麼。」
2Elisha said to her, “What should I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” She said, “Your servant has nothing in the house, except a pot of oil.”
3以利沙 說：「你去，向你眾鄰舍借空器皿，不要少借；
3Then he said, “Go, borrow empty containers from all your neighbors. Don’t borrow just a few containers.
4回到家裏，關上門，你和你兒子在裏面將油倒在所有的器皿裏，倒滿了的放在一邊。」
4Go in and shut the door on you and on your sons, and pour oil into all those containers; and set aside those which are full.”
5於是，婦人離開 以利沙 去了，關上門，自己和兒子在裏面；兒子把 器皿 拿來，她就倒油。
5So she went from him, and shut the door on herself and on her sons. They brought the containers to her, and she poured oil.
6器皿都滿了，她對兒子說：「再給我拿器皿來。」兒子說：「再沒有器皿了。」油就止住了。
6When the containers were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another container.” He said to her, “There isn’t another container.” Then the oil stopped flowing.
7婦人去告訴神人，神人說：「你去賣油還債，所剩的你和你兒子可以靠着度日。」
7Then she came and told the man of God. He said, “Go, sell the oil, and pay your debt; and you and your sons live on the rest.”
8一日， 以利沙 走到 書念 ，在那裏有一個大戶的婦人強留他吃飯。此後， 以利沙 每從那裏經過就進去吃飯。
8One day Elisha went to Shunem, where there was a prominent woman; and she persuaded him to eat bread. So it was, that as often as he passed by, he turned in there to eat bread.
9婦人對丈夫說：「我看出那常從我們這裏經過的是聖潔的神人。
9She said to her husband, “See now, I perceive that this is a holy man of God who passes by us continually.
10我們可以為他在牆上蓋一間小樓，在其中安放床榻、桌子、椅子、燈臺，他來到我們這裏，就可以住在其間。」
10Please, let’s make a little room on the roof. Let’s set a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp stand for him there. When he comes to us, he can stay there.”
11一日， 以利沙 來到那裏，就進了那樓躺臥。
11One day he came there, and he went to the room and lay there.
12以利沙 吩咐僕人 基哈西 說：「你叫這 書念 婦人來。」他就把婦人叫了來，婦人站在 以利沙 面前。
12He said to Gehazi his servant, “Call this Shunammite.” When he had called her, she stood before him.
13以利沙 吩咐僕人說：「你對她說：你既為我們費了許多心思，可以為你做甚麼呢？你向王或元帥有所求的沒有？」她回答說：「我在我本鄉安居無事。」
13He said to him, “Say now to her, ‘Behold, you have cared for us with all this care. What is to be done for you? Would you like to be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the army?’” She answered, “I dwell among my own people.”
14以利沙 對僕人 說：「究竟當為她做甚麼呢？」 基哈西 說：「她沒有兒子，她丈夫也老了。」
14He said, “What then is to be done for her?” Gehazi answered, “Most certainly she has no son, and her husband is old.”
15以利沙 說：「再叫她來。」於是叫了她來，她就站在門口。
15He said, “Call her.” When he had called her, she stood in the door.
16以利沙 說：「明年到這時候，你必抱一個兒子。」她說：「神人，我主啊，不要那樣欺哄婢女。」
16He said, “At this season next year, you will embrace a son.” She said, “No, my lord, you man of God, do not lie to your servant.”
17婦人果然懷孕，到了那時候，生了一個兒子，正如 以利沙 所說的。
17The woman conceived, and bore a son at that season when the time came around, as Elisha had said to her.
18孩子漸漸長大，一日到他父親和收割的人那裏，
18When the child was grown, one day he went out to his father to the reapers.
19他對父親說：「我的頭啊，我的頭啊！」他父親對僕人說：「把他抱到他母親那裏。」
19He said to his father, “My head! My head!” He said to his servant, “Carry him to his mother.”
20僕人抱去，交給他母親；孩子坐在母親的膝上，到晌午就死了。
20When he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees until noon, and then died.
21他母親抱他上了樓，將他放在神人的床上，關上 門 出來，
21She went up and laid him on the man of God’s bed, and shut the door on him, and went out.
22呼叫她丈夫說：「你叫一個僕人給我牽一匹驢來，我要快快地去見神人，就回來。」
22She called to her husband and said, “Please send me one of the servants, and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and come again.”
23丈夫說：「今日不是月朔，也不是安息日，你為何要去見他呢？」婦人說：「平安無事。」
23He said, “Why would you want to go to him today? It is not a new moon or a Sabbath.” She said, “It’s all right.”
24於是備上驢，對僕人說：「你快快趕着走，我若不吩咐你，就不要遲慢。」
24Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, “Drive, and go forward! Don’t slow down for me, unless I ask you to.”
25婦人就往 迦密山 去見神人。 神人遠遠地看見她，對僕人 基哈西 說：「看哪， 書念 的婦人來了！
25So she went, and came to the man of God to Mount Carmel. When the man of God saw her afar off, he said to Gehazi his servant, “Behold, there is the Shunammite.
26你跑去迎接她，問她說：你平安嗎？你丈夫平安嗎？孩子平安嗎？」她說：「平安。」
26Please run now to meet her, and ask her, ‘Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with your child?’” She answered, “It is well.”
27婦人上了山，到神人那裏，就抱住神人的腳。 基哈西 前來要推開她，神人說：「由她吧！因為她心裏愁苦，耶和華向我隱瞞，沒有指示我。」
27When she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught hold of his feet. Gehazi came near to thrust her away; but the man of God said, “Leave her alone, for her soul is troubled within her; and the LORD has hidden it from me, and has not told me.”
28婦人說：「我何嘗向我主求過兒子呢？我豈沒有說過，不要欺哄我嗎？」
28Then she said, “Did I ask you for a son, my lord? Didn’t I say, ‘Do not deceive me’?”
29以利沙 吩咐 基哈西 說：「你束上腰，手拿我的杖前去；若遇見人，不要向他問安；人若向你問安，也不要回答；要把我的杖放在孩子臉上。」
29Then he said to Gehazi, “Tuck your cloak into your belt, take my staff in your hand, and go your way. If you meet any man, don’t greet him; and if anyone greets you, don’t answer him again. Then lay my staff on the child’s face.”
30孩子的母親說：「我指着永生的耶和華，又敢在你面前起誓，我必不離開你。」於是 以利沙 起身，隨着她去了。
30The child’s mother said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you.” So he arose, and followed her.
31基哈西 先去，把杖放在孩子臉上，卻沒有聲音，也沒有動靜。 基哈西 就迎着 以利沙 回來，告訴他說：「孩子還沒有醒過來。」
31Gehazi went ahead of them, and laid the staff on the child’s face; but there was no voice and no hearing. Therefore he returned to meet him, and told him, “The child has not awakened.”
32以利沙 來到，進了屋子，看見孩子死了，放在自己的床上。
32When Elisha had come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and lying on his bed.
33他就關上門，只有自己和孩子在裏面，他便祈禱耶和華，
33He went in therefore, and shut the door on them both, and prayed to the LORD.
34上床伏在孩子身上，口對口，眼對眼，手對手；既伏在孩子身上，孩子的身體就漸漸溫和了。
34He went up and lay on the child, and put his mouth on his mouth, and his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands. He stretched himself on him; and the child’s flesh grew warm.
35然後他下來，在屋裏來往走了一趟，又上去伏在孩子身上，孩子打了七個噴嚏，就睜開眼睛了。
35Then he returned, and walked in the house once back and forth, then went up and stretched himself out on him. Then the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.
36以利沙 叫 基哈西 說：「你叫這 書念 婦人來」；於是叫了她來。 以利沙 說：「將你兒子抱起來。」
36He called Gehazi, and said, “Call this Shunammite!” So he called her. When she had come in to him, he said, “Take up your son.”
37婦人就進來，在 以利沙 腳前俯伏於地，抱起她兒子出去了。
37Then she went in, fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground; then she picked up her son, and went out.
38以利沙 又來到 吉甲 ，那地正有饑荒。先知門徒坐在他面前，他吩咐僕人說：「你將大鍋放在火上，給先知門徒熬湯。」
38Elisha came again to Gilgal. There was a famine in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said to his servant, “Get the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets.”
39有一個人去到田野掐菜，遇見一棵野瓜籐，就摘了一兜野瓜回來，切了擱在熬湯的鍋中，因為他們不知道是甚麼東西；
39One went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered a lap full of wild gourds from it, and came and cut them up into the pot of stew; for they didn’t recognize them.
40倒出來給眾人吃，吃的時候，都喊叫說：「神人哪，鍋中有致死的毒物！」所以眾人不能吃了。
40So they poured out for the men to eat. As they were eating some of the stew, they cried out and said, “Man of God, there is death in the pot!” And they could not eat it.
41以利沙 說：「拿點麵來」，就把麵撒在鍋中，說：「倒出來，給眾人吃吧！」鍋中就沒有毒了。
41But he said, “Then bring meal.” He threw it into the pot; and he said, “Serve it to the people, that they may eat.” And there was nothing harmful in the pot.
42有一個人從 巴力‧沙利沙 來，帶着初熟大麥做的餅二十個，並新穗子，裝在口袋裏送給神人。神人說：「把這些給眾人吃。」
42A man from Baal Shalishah came, and brought the man of God some bread of the first fruits: twenty loaves of barley and fresh ears of grain in his sack. Elisha said, “Give to the people, that they may eat.”
43僕人說：「這一點豈可擺給一百人吃呢？」 以利沙 說：「你只管給眾人吃吧！因為耶和華如此說，眾人必吃了，還剩下。」
43His servant said, “What, should I set this before a hundred men?” But he said, “Give it to the people, that they may eat; for the LORD says, ‘They will eat, and will have some left over.’”
44僕人就擺在眾人面前，他們吃了，果然還剩下，正如耶和華所說的。
44So he set it before them and they ate and had some left over, according to the LORD’s word.
