撒母耳記下 21
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1大衛 年間有饑荒，一連三年， 大衛 就求問耶和華。耶和華說：「這饑荒是因 掃羅 和他流人血之家殺死 基遍 人。」
1And there was a famine in the days of David for three years successively: and David consulted the oracle of the Lord. And the Lord said: It is for Saul, and his bloody house, because he slew the Gabaonites.
2原來這 基遍 人不是 以色列 人，乃是 亞摩利 人中所剩的； 以色列 人曾向他們起誓， 不殺滅他們 ， 掃羅 卻為 以色列 人和 猶大 人發熱心，想要殺滅他們。 大衛 王召了他們來，
2Then the king, calling for the Gabaonites, said to them: (Now the Gabaonites were not of the children of Israel, but the remains of the Amorrhites: I and the children of Israel had sworn to them, and Saul sought to slay them out of zeal, as it were for the children of Israel and Juda:)
3問他們說：「我當為你們怎樣行呢？可用甚麼贖這罪，使你們為耶和華的產業祝福呢？」
3David therefore said to the Gabaonites: What shall I do for you? and what shall be the atonement for you, that you may bless the inheritance of the Lord?
4基遍 人回答說：「我們和 掃羅 與他家的事並不關乎金銀，也不要因我們的緣故殺一個 以色列 人。」 大衛 說：「你們怎樣說，我就為你們怎樣行。」
4And the Gabaonites said to him: We have no contest about silver and gold, but against Saul and against his house: neither do we desire that any man be slain of Israel. And the king said to them: What will you then that I should do for you?
5他們對王說：「那從前謀害我們、要滅我們、使我們不得再住 以色列 境內的人，
5And they said to the king: The man that crushed us and oppressed us unjustly, we must destroy in such manner that there be not so much as one left of his stock in all the coasts of Israel.
6現在願將他的子孫七人交給我們，我們好在耶和華面前，將他們懸掛在耶和華揀選 掃羅 的 基比亞 。」王說：「我必交給你們。」
6Let seven men of his children be delivered unto us, that we may crucify them to the Lord in Gabaa of Saul, once the chosen of the Lord. And the king said: I will give them.
7王因為曾與 掃羅 的兒子 約拿單 指着耶和華起誓 結盟 ，就愛惜 掃羅 的孫子、 約拿單 的兒子 米非波設 ， 不交出來 ，
7And the king spared Miphiboseth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the oath of the Lord, that had been between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
8卻把 愛雅 的女兒 利斯巴 給 掃羅 所生的兩個兒子 亞摩尼 、 米非波設 ，和 掃羅 女兒 米甲 的姊姊 給 米何拉 人 巴西萊 兒子 亞得列 所生的五個兒子
8So the king took the two sons of Respha the daughter of Aia, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni, and Miphiboseth: and the five sons of Michol the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Hadriel the son of Berzellai, that was of Molathi:
9交在 基遍 人的手裏。 基遍 人就把他們，在耶和華面前，懸掛在山上，這七人就一同死亡。被殺的時候正是收割的日子，就是動手割大麥的時候。
9And gave them into the hands of the Gabaonites: and they crucified them on a hill before the Lord: and these seven died together in the first days of the harvest, when the barley began to be reaped.
10愛雅 的女兒 利斯巴 用麻布在磐石上搭棚，從動手收割的時候直到天降雨在屍身上的時候，日間不容空中的雀鳥落在屍身上，夜間不讓田野的走獸前來糟踐。
10And Respha the daughter of Aia took haircloth, and spread it under her upon the rock from the beginning of the harvest, till water dropped upon them out of heaven: and suffered neither the birds to tear them by day, nor the beasts by night.
11有人將 掃羅 的妃嬪 愛雅 女兒 利斯巴 所行的這事告訴 大衛 。
11And it was told David, what Respha the daughter of Aia, the concubine of Saul, had done.
12大衛 就去，從 基列‧雅比 人那裏將 掃羅 和他兒子 約拿單 的骸骨搬了來（是因 非利士 人從前在 基利波 殺 掃羅 ，將屍身懸掛在 伯‧珊 的街市上， 基列‧雅比 人把屍身偷了去。）
12And David went, and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabes Galaad, who had stolen them from the street of Bethsan, where the Philistines had hanged them when they had slain Saul in Gelboe.
13大衛 將 掃羅 和他兒子 約拿單 的骸骨從那裏搬了來，又收殮被懸掛七人的骸骨，
13And he brought from thence the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, and they gathered up the bones of them that were crucified,
14將 掃羅 和他兒子 約拿單 的骸骨葬在 便雅憫 的 洗拉 ，在 掃羅 父親 基士 的墳墓裏；眾人行了王所吩咐的。此後上帝垂聽國民所求的。
14And they buried them with the bones of Saul, and of Jonathan his son in the land of Benjamin, in the side, in the sepulchre of Cis his father: and they did all that the king had commanded, and God shewed mercy again to the land after these things.
15非利士 人與 以色列 人打仗； 大衛 帶領僕人下去，與 非利士 人接戰， 大衛 就疲乏了。
15And the Philistines made war again against Israel, and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. And David growing faint,
16偉人的一個兒子 以實‧比諾 要殺 大衛 ；他的銅槍重三百 舍客勒 ，又佩着新 刀 。
16Jesbibenob, who was of the race of Arapha, the iron of whose spear weighed three hundred ounces, being girded with a new sword, attempted to kill David.
17但 洗魯雅 的兒子 亞比篩 幫助 大衛 ，攻打 非利士 人，將他殺死。當日，跟隨 大衛 的人向 大衛 起誓說：「以後你不可再與我們一同出戰，恐怕熄滅 以色列 的燈。」
17And Abisai the son of Sarvia rescued him, and striking the Philistine killed him. Then David’s men swore unto him, saying: Thou shalt go no more out with us to battle, lest thou put out the lamp of Israel.
18後來， 以色列 人在 歌伯 與 非利士 人打仗， 戶沙 人 西比該 殺了偉人的一個兒子 撒弗 。
18There was also a second battle in Gob against the Philistines: then Sobochai of Husathi slew Saph of the race of Arapha of the family of the giants.
19又在 歌伯 與 非利士 人打仗， 伯利恆 人 雅雷俄珥金 的兒子 伊勒哈難 殺了 迦特 人 歌利亞 。這人的槍桿粗如織布的機軸。
19And there was a third battle in Gob against the Philistines, in which Adeodatus the son of the Forrest an embroiderer of Bethlehem slew Goliath the Gethite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20又在 迦特 打仗，那裏有一個身量高大的人，手腳都是六指，共有二十四個指頭；他也是偉人的兒子。
20A fourth battle was in Geth. where there was a man of great stature, that had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, four and twenty in all, and he was of the race of Arapha.
21這人向 以色列 人罵陣， 大衛 的哥哥 示米亞 的兒子 約拿單 就殺了他。
21And he reproached Israel: and Jonathan the son of Samae the brother of David slew him.
22這四個人是 迦特 偉人的兒子，都死在 大衛 和他僕人的手下。
22These four were born of Arapha in Geth, and they fell by the hand of David, and of his servants.
