創世記 20
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
World English Bible
1亞伯拉罕 從那裏向南地遷去,寄居在 加低斯 和 書珥 中間的 基拉耳 。
1Abraham traveled from there toward the land of the South, and lived between Kadesh and Shur. He lived as a foreigner in Gerar.
2亞伯拉罕 稱他的妻 撒拉 為妹子, 基拉耳 王 亞比米勒 差人把 撒拉 取了去。
2Abraham said about Sarah his wife, “She is my sister.” Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
3但夜間,上帝來,在夢中對 亞比米勒 說:「你是個死人哪!因為你取了那女人來;她原是別人的妻子。」
3But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him, “Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man’s wife.”
4亞比米勒 卻還沒有親近 撒拉 ;他說:「主啊,連有義的國,你也要毀滅嗎?
4Now Abimelech had not come near her. He said, “Lord, will you kill even a righteous nation?
5那人豈不是自己對我說『她是我的妹子』嗎?就是女人也自己說:『他是我的哥哥。』我做這事是心正手潔的。」
5Didn’t he tell me, ‘She is my sister’? She, even she herself, said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”
6上帝在夢中對他說:「我知道你做這事是心中正直;我也攔阻了你,免得你得罪我,所以我不容你沾着她。
6God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn’t allow you to touch her.
7現在你把這人的妻子歸還他;因為他是先知,他要為你禱告,使你存活。你若不歸還他,你當知道,你和你所有的人都必要死。」
7Now therefore, restore the man’s wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you don’t restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours.”
8亞比米勒 清早起來,召了眾臣僕來,將這些事都說給他們聽,他們都甚懼怕。
8Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ear. The men were very scared.
9亞比米勒 召了 亞伯拉罕 來,對他說:「你怎麼向我這樣行呢?我在甚麼事上得罪了你,你竟使我和我國裏的人陷在大罪裏?你向我行不當行的事了!」
9Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said to him, “What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done!”
10亞比米勒 又對 亞伯拉罕 說:「你見了甚麼才做這事呢?」
10Abimelech said to Abraham, “What did you see, that you have done this thing?”
11亞伯拉罕 說:「我以為這地方的人總不懼怕上帝,必為我妻子的緣故殺我。
11Abraham said, “Because I thought, ‘Surely the fear of God is not in this place. They will kill me for my wife’s sake.’
12況且她也實在是我的妹子;她與我是同父異母,後來作了我的妻子。
12Besides, she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.
13當上帝叫我離開父家、飄流在外的時候,我對她說:『我們無論走到甚麼地方,你可以對人說:他是我的哥哥;這就是你待我的恩典了。』」
13When God caused me to wander from my father’s house, I said to her, ‘This is your kindness which you shall show to me. Everywhere that we go, say of me, “He is my brother.”’”
14亞比米勒 把牛、羊、僕婢賜給 亞伯拉罕 ,又把他的妻子 撒拉 歸還他。
14Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him.
15亞比米勒 又說:「看哪,我的地都在你面前,你可以隨意居住」;
15Abimelech said, “Behold, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you.”
16又對 撒拉 說:「我給你哥哥一千銀子,作為你在閤家人面前遮羞的,你就在眾人面前沒有不是了。」
16To Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for you a covering of the eyes to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated.”
17亞伯拉罕 禱告上帝,上帝就醫好了 亞比米勒 和他的妻子,並他的眾女僕,她們便能生育。
17Abraham prayed to God. So God healed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants, and they bore children.
18因耶和華為 亞伯拉罕 的妻子 撒拉 的緣故,已經使 亞比米勒 家中的婦人不能生育。
18For the LORD had closed up tight all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
