1And behold there came a man of God out of Juda, by the word of the Lord to Bethel, when Jeroboam was standing upon the altar, and burning incense.
1那時,有一個神人奉耶和華的命從 猶大 來到 伯特利 。 耶羅波安 正站在壇旁要燒香;
2And he cried out against the altar in the word of the Lord, and said: O altar, altar, thus saith the Lord: Behold a child shall be born to the house of David, Josias by name, and he shall immolate upon thee the priests of the high places, who now burn incense upon thee, and he shall burn men’s bones upon thee.
2神人奉耶和華的命向壇呼叫,說:「壇哪,壇哪!耶和華如此說: 大衛 家裏必生一個兒子,名叫 約西亞 ,他必將邱壇的祭司,就是在你上面燒香的,殺在你上面,人的骨頭也必燒在你上面。」
3And he gave a sign the same day, saying: This shall be the sign, that the Lord hath spoken: Behold the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.
3當日,神人設個預兆,說:「這壇必破裂,壇上的灰必傾撒,這是耶和華說的預兆。」
4And when the king had heard the word of the man of God, which he had cried out against the altar in Bethel, he stretched forth his hand from the altar, saying: Lay hold on him. And his hand which he stretched forth against him withered: and he was not able to draw it back again to him.
4耶羅波安 王聽見神人向 伯特利 的壇所呼叫的話,就從壇上伸手,說:「拿住他吧!」王向神人所伸的手就枯乾了,不能彎回;
5The altar also was rent, and the ashes were poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given before in the word of the Lord.
5壇也破裂了,壇上的灰傾撒了,正如神人奉耶和華的命所設的預兆。
6And the king said to the man of God: Entreat the face of the Lord thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me. And the man of God besought the face of the Lord, and the king’s hand was restored to him, and it became as it was before.
6王對神人說:「請你為我禱告,求耶和華-你上帝的恩典使我的手復原。」於是神人祈禱耶和華,王的手就復了原,仍如尋常一樣。
7And the king said to the man of God: Come home with me to dine, and I will make thee presents.
7王對神人說:「請你同我回去 吃飯 ,加添心力,我也必給你賞賜。」
8And the man of God answered the king: If thou wouldst give me half thy house I will not go with thee, nor eat bread, nor drink water in this place:
8神人對王說:「你就是把你的宮一半給我,我也不同你進去,也不在這地方吃飯喝水;
9For so it was enjoined me by the word of the Lord commanding me: Thou shalt not eat bread nor drink water, nor return by the same way that thou camest.
9因為有耶和華的話囑咐我,說不可在 伯特利 吃飯喝水,也不可從你去的原路回來。」
10So he departed by another way, and returned not by the way that he came into Bethel.
10於是神人從別的路回去,不從 伯特利 來的原路回去。
11Now a certain old prophet dwelt in Bethel, and his sons came to him and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: and they told their father the words which he had spoken to the king.
11有一個老先知住在 伯特利 ,他兒子們來,將神人當日在 伯特利 所行的一切事和向王所說的話都告訴了父親。
12And their father said to them: What way went he? His sons shewed him the way by which the man of God went, who came out of Juda.
12父親問他們說:「神人從哪條路去了呢?」兒子們 就告訴他 ;原來他們看見那從 猶大 來的神人所去的路。
13And he said to his sons: Saddle me the ass. And when they had saddled him, he got up,
13老先知就吩咐他兒子們說:「你們為我備驢。」他們備好了驢,他就騎上,
14And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under a turpentine tree: and he said to him: Art thou the man of God that camest from Juda? He answered: I am.
14去追趕神人,遇見他坐在橡樹底下,就問他說:「你是從 猶大 來的神人不是?」他說:「是。」
15And he said to him: Come home with me, to eat bread.
15老先知對他說:「請你同我回家吃飯。」
16But he said: I must not return, nor go with thee, neither will I eat bread, nor drink water in this place:
16神人說:「我不可同你回去進你的家,也不可在這裏同你吃飯喝水;
17Because the Lord spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Thou shalt not eat bread, and thou shalt not drink water there, nor return by the way thou wentest.
17因為有耶和華的話囑咐我說:『你在那裏不可吃飯喝水,也不可從你去的原路回來。』」
18He said to him: I also am a prophet like unto thee: and an angel spoke to me in the word of the Lord, saying: Bring him back with thee into thy house, that he may eat bread, and drink water. He deceived him,
18老先知對他說:「我也是先知,和你一樣。有天使奉耶和華的命對我說:『你去把他帶回你的家,叫他吃飯喝水。』」這都是老先知誆哄他。
19And brought him back with him: so he ate bread and drank water in his house.
19於是神人同老先知回去,在他家裏吃飯喝水。
20And as they sat at table, the word of the Lord came to the prophet that brought him back:
20二人坐席的時候,耶和華的話臨到那帶神人回來的先知,
21And he cried out to the man of God who came out of Juda, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Because thou hast not been obedient to the Lord, and hast not kept the commandment which the Lord thy God commanded thee,
21他就對那從 猶大 來的神人說:「耶和華如此說:你既違背耶和華的話,不遵守耶和華-你上帝的命令,
22And hast returned and eaten bread, and drunk water in the place wherein he commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat bread, nor drink water, thy dead body shall not be brought into the sepulchre of thy fathers.
22反倒回來,在耶和華禁止你吃飯喝水的地方吃了喝了,因此你的屍身不得入你列祖的墳墓。」
23And when he had eaten and drunk, he saddled his ass for the prophet, whom he had brought back.
23吃喝完了,老先知為所帶回來的先知備驢。
24And when he was gone, a lion found him in the way, and killed him, and his body was cast in the way: and the ass stood by him, and the lion stood by the dead body.
24他就去了,在路上有個獅子遇見他,將他咬死,屍身倒在路上,驢站在屍身旁邊,獅子也站在屍身旁邊。
25And behold, men passing by saw the dead body cast in the way, and the lion standing by the body. And they came and told it in the city, wherein that old prophet dwelt.
25有人從那裏經過,看見屍身倒在路上,獅子站在屍身旁邊,就來到老先知所住的城裏述說這事。
26And when that prophet, who had brought him back out of the way, heard of it, he said: It is the man of God, that was disobedient to the mouth of the Lord, and the Lord hath delivered him to the lion, and he hath torn him, and killed him according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke to him.
26那帶神人回來的先知聽見這事,就說:「這是那違背了耶和華命令的神人,所以耶和華把他交給獅子;獅子抓傷他,咬死他,是應驗耶和華對他說的話。」
27And he said to his sons: Saddle me an ass. And when they had saddled it,
27老先知就吩咐他兒子們說:「你們為我備驢。」他們就備了驢。
28And he was gone, he found the dead body cast in the way, and the ass and the lion standing by the carcass: the lion had not eaten of the dead body, nor hurt the ass.
28他去了,看見神人的屍身倒在路上,驢和獅子站在屍身旁邊,獅子卻沒有吃屍身,也沒有抓傷驢。
29And the prophet took up the body of the man of God, and laid it upon the ass, and going back brought it into the city of the old prophet, to mourn for him.
29老先知就把神人的屍身馱在驢上,帶回自己的城裏,要哀哭他,葬埋他;
30And he laid his dead body in his own sepulchre: and they mourned over him, saying: Alas! alas! my brother.
30就把他的屍身葬在自己的墳墓裏,哀哭他, 說 :「哀哉!我兄啊。」
31And when they had mourned over him, he said to his sons: When I am dead, bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried: lay my bones beside his bones.
31安葬之後,老先知對他兒子們說:「我死了,你們要葬我在神人的墳墓裏,使我的屍骨靠近他的屍骨,
32For assuredly the word shall come to pass which he hath foretold in the word of the Lord against the altar that is in Bethel: and against all the temples of the high places, that are in the cities of Samaria.
32因為他奉耶和華的命指着 伯特利 的壇和 撒馬利亞 各城有邱壇之殿所說的話必定應驗。」
33After these words Jeroboam came not back from his wicked way: but on the contrary he made of the meanest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he filled his hand, and he was made a priest of the high places.
33這事以後, 耶羅波安 仍不離開他的惡道,將凡民立為邱壇的祭司;凡願意的,他都分別為聖,立為邱壇的祭司。
34And for this cause did the house of Jeroboam sin, and was cut off and destroyed from the face of the earth.
34這事叫 耶羅波安 的家陷在罪裏,甚至他的家從地上除滅了。
