Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now king David was old, and advanced in years: and when he was covered with clothes, he was not warm.
1大衛 王年紀老邁，雖用被遮蓋，仍不覺暖。
2His servants therefore said to him: Let us seek for our lord the king, a young virgin, and let her stand before the king, and cherish him, and sleep in his bosom, and warm our lord the king.
2所以臣僕對他說：「不如為我主我王尋找一個處女，使她伺候王，奉養王，睡在王的懷中，好叫我主我王得暖。」
3So they sought a beautiful young woman in all the coasts of Israel, and they found Abisag a Sunamitess, and brought her to the king.
3於是在 以色列 全境尋找美貌的童女，尋得 書念 的一個童女 亞比煞 ，就帶到王那裏。
4And the damsel was exceeding beautiful, and she slept with the king: and served him, but the king did not know her.
4這童女極其美貌，她奉養王，伺候王，王卻沒有與她親近。
5And Adonias the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying: I will be king. And he made himself chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
5那時， 哈及 的兒子 亞多尼雅 自尊，說：「我必作王」，就為自己預備車輛、馬兵，又派五十人在他前頭奔走。
6Neither did his father rebuke him at any time, saying: Why hast thou done this? And he also was very beautiful, the next in birth after Absalom.
6他父親素來沒有使他憂悶，說：「你是做甚麼呢？」他甚俊美，生在 押沙龍 之後。
7And he conferred with Joab the son of Sarvia, and with Abiathar the priest, who furthered Adonias’s side.
7亞多尼雅 與 洗魯雅 的兒子 約押 ，和祭司 亞比亞他 商議；二人就順從他，幫助他。
8But Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Nathan the prophet, and Semei, and Rei, and the strength of David’s army was not with Adonias.
8但祭司 撒督 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 、先知 拿單 、 示每 、 利以 ，並 大衛 的勇士都不順從 亞多尼雅 。
9And Adonias having slain rams and calves, and all fat cattle by the stone of Zoheleth, which was near the fountain Rogel, invited all his brethren the king’s sons, and all the men of Juda, the king’s servants:
9一日， 亞多尼雅 在 隱‧羅結 旁、 瑣希列 磐石那裏宰了牛羊、肥犢，請他的諸弟兄，就是王的眾子，並所有作王臣僕的 猶大 人；
10But Nathan the prophet, and Banaias, and all the valiant men, and Solomon his brother, he invited not.
10惟獨先知 拿單 和 比拿雅 並勇士，與他的兄弟 所羅門 ，他都沒有請。
11And Nathan said to Bethsabee the mother of Solomon: Hast thou not heard that Adonias the son of Haggith reigneth, and our lord David knoweth it not?
11拿單 對 所羅門 的母親 拔示巴 說：「 哈及 的兒子 亞多尼雅 作王了，你沒有聽見嗎？我們的主 大衛 卻不知道。
12Now then come, take my counsel and save thy life, and the life of thy son Solomon.
12現在我可以給你出個主意，好保全你和你兒子 所羅門 的性命。
13Go, and get thee in to king David, and say to him: Didst not thou, my lord O king, swear to me thy handmaid, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne? why then doth Adonias reign?
13你進去見 大衛 王，對他說：『我主我王啊，你不曾向婢女起誓說：你兒子 所羅門 必接續我作王，坐在我的位上嗎？現在 亞多尼雅 怎麼作了王呢？』
14And while thou art yet speaking there with the king, I will come in after thee, and will fill up thy words.
14你還與王說話的時候，我也隨後進去，證實你的話。」
15So Bethsabee went in to the king into the chamber: now the king was very old, and Abisag the Sunamitess ministered to him.
15拔示巴 進入內室見王，王甚老邁， 書念 的童女 亞比煞 正伺候王。
16Bethsabee bowed herself, and worshipped the king. And the king said to her: What is thy will?
16拔示巴 向王屈身下拜；王說：「你要甚麼？」
17She answered and said: My lord, thou didst swear to thy handmaid by the Lord thy God, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.
17她說：「我主啊，你曾向婢女指着耶和華－你的上帝起誓 說 ：『你兒子 所羅門 必接續我作王，坐在我的位上。』
18And behold now Adonias reigneth, and thou, my lord the king, knowest nothing of it.
18現在 亞多尼雅 作王了，我主我王卻不知道。
19He hath killed oxen, and all fat cattle, and many rams, and invited all the king’s sons, and Abiathar the priest, and Joab the general of the army: but Solomon thy servant he invited not.
19他宰了許多牛羊、肥犢，請了王的眾子和祭司 亞比亞他 ，並元帥 約押 ；惟獨王的僕人 所羅門 ，他沒有請。
20And now, my lord O king, the eyes of all Israel are upon thee, that thou shouldst tell them, who shall sit on thy throne, my lord the king, after thee.
20我主我王啊， 以色列 眾人的眼目都仰望你，等你曉諭他們，在我主我王之後誰坐你的位。
21Otherwise it shall come to pass, when my lord the king sleepeth with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon shall be counted offenders.
21若不然，到我主我王與列祖同睡以後，我和我兒子 所羅門 必算為罪人了。」
22As she was yet speaking with the king, Nathan the prophet came.
22拔示巴 還與王說話的時候，先知 拿單 也進來了。
23And they told the king, saying: Nathan the prophet is here. And when he was come in before the king, and had worshipped, bowing down to the ground,
23有人奏告王說：「先知 拿單 來了。」 拿單 進到王前，臉伏於地。
24Nathan said: My lord O king, hast thou said: Let Adonias reign after me, and let him sit upon my throne?
24拿單 說：「我主我王果然應許 亞多尼雅 說『你必接續我作王，坐在我的位上』嗎？
25Because he is gone down today, and hath killed oxen, and fatlings, and many rams, and invited all the king’s sons, and the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest: and they are eating and drinking before him, and saying: God save king Adonias:
25他今日下去，宰了許多牛羊、肥犢，請了王的眾子和軍長，並祭司 亞比亞他 ；他們正在 亞多尼雅 面前吃喝，說：『願 亞多尼雅 王萬歲！』
26But me thy servant, and Sadoc the priest, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and Solomon thy servant he hath not invited.
26惟獨我，就是你的僕人和祭司 撒督 ， 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，並王的僕人 所羅門 ，他都沒有請。
27Is this word come out from my lord the king, and hast thou not told me thy servant who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?
27這事果然出乎我主我王嗎？王卻沒有告訴僕人們，在我主我王之後誰坐你的位。」
28And king David answered and said: Call to me Bethsabee. And when she was come in to the king, and stood before him,
28大衛 王吩咐說：「叫 拔示巴 來。」 拔示巴 就進來，站在王面前。
29The king swore and said: As the Lord liveth, who hath delivered my soul out of all distress,
29王起誓說：「我指着救我性命脫離一切苦難、永生的耶和華起誓。
30Even as I swore to thee by the Lord the God of Israel, saying: Solomon thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne in my stead, so will I do this day.
30我既然指着耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝向你起誓說：你兒子 所羅門 必接續我作王，坐在我的位上。我今日就必照這話而行。」
31And Bethsabee bowing with her face to the earth worshipped the king, saying: May my lord David live for ever.
31於是， 拔示巴 臉伏於地，向王下拜，說：「願我主 大衛 王萬歲！」
32King David also said: Call me Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaias the son of Joiada. And when they were come in before the king,
32大衛 王又吩咐說：「將祭司 撒督 、先知 拿單 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 召來！」他們就都來到王面前。
33He said to them: Take with you the servants of your lord, and set my son Solomon upon my mule: and bring him to Gihon.
33王對他們說：「要帶領你們主的僕人，使我兒子 所羅門 騎我的騾子，送他下到 基訓 ；
34And let Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel: and you shall sound the trumpet, and shall say: God save king Solomon.
34在那裏，祭司 撒督 和先知 拿單 要膏他作 以色列 的王；你們也要吹角，說：『願 所羅門 王萬歲！』
35And you shall come up after him, and he shall come, and shall sit upon my throne, and he shall reign in my stead: and I will appoint him to be ruler over Israel, and over Juda.
35然後要跟隨他上來，使他坐在我的位上，接續我作王。我已立他作 以色列 和 猶大 的君。」
36And Banaias the son of Joiada answered the king, saying: Amen: so say the Lord the God of my lord the king.
36耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 對王說：「阿們！願耶和華－我主我王的上帝也這樣命定。
37As the Lord hath been with my lord the king, so be he with Solomon, and make his throne higher than the throne of my lord king David.
37耶和華怎樣與我主我王同在，願他照樣與 所羅門 同在，使他的國位比我主 大衛 王的國位更大。」
38So Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet went down, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and the Cerethi, and Phelethi: and they set Solomon upon the mule of king David, and brought him to Gihon.
38於是，祭司 撒督 、先知 拿單 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，和 基利提 人、 比利提 人都下去使 所羅門 騎 大衛 王的騾子，將他送到 基訓 。
39And Sadoc the priest took a horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon: and they sounded the trumpet, and all the people said: God save king Solomon.
39祭司 撒督 就從帳幕中取了盛膏油的角來，用膏膏 所羅門 。人就吹角，眾民都說：「願 所羅門 王萬歲！」
40And all the multitude went up after him, and the people played with pipes, and rejoiced with a great joy, and the earth rang with the noise of their cry.
40眾民跟隨他上來，且吹笛，大大歡呼，聲音震地。
41And Adonias, and all that were invited by him, heard it, and now the feast was at an end: Joab also hearing the sound of the trumpet, said: What meaneth this noise of the city in an uproar?
41亞多尼雅 和所請的眾客筵宴方畢，聽見這聲音； 約押 聽見角聲就說：「城中為何有這響聲呢？」
42While he yet spoke, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came: and Adonias said to him: Come in, because thou art a valiant man, and bringest good news.
42他正說話的時候，祭司 亞比亞他 的兒子 約拿單 來了。 亞多尼雅 對他說：「進來吧！你是個忠義的人，必是報好信息。」
43And Jonathan answered Adonias: Not so: for our lord king David hath appointed Solomon king.
43約拿單 對 亞多尼雅 說：「我們的主 大衛 王誠然立 所羅門 為王了。
44And hath sent with him Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet, and Banaias the son of Joiada, and the Cerethi, and Phelethi, and they have set him upon the king’s mule.
44王差遣祭司 撒督 、先知 拿單 、 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，和 基利提 人、 比利提 人都去使 所羅門 騎王的騾子。
45And Sadoc the priest, and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon: and they are gone up from thence rejoicing, so that the city rang again: this is the noise that you have heard.
45祭司 撒督 和先知 拿單 在 基訓 已經膏他作王。眾人都從那裏歡呼着上來，聲音使城震動，這就是你們所聽見的聲音；
46Moreover Solomon sitteth upon the throne of the kingdom,
46並且 所羅門 登了國位。
47And the king’s servants going in have blessed our lord king David, saying: May God make the name of Solomon greater than thy name, and make his throne greater than thy throne. And the king adored in his bed:
47王的臣僕也來為我們的主 大衛 王祝福，說：『願王的上帝使 所羅門 的名比王的名更尊榮；使他的國位比王的國位更大。』王就在床上屈身下拜。
48And he said: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who hath given this day one to sit on my throne, my eyes seeing it.
48王又說：『耶和華－ 以色列 的上帝是應當稱頌的；因他賜我一人今日坐在我的位上，我也親眼看見了。』」
49Then all the guests of Adonias were afraid, and they all arose and every man went his way.
49亞多尼雅 的眾客 聽見這話 就都驚懼，起來四散。
50And Adonias fearing Solomon, arose, and went, and took hold on the horn of the altar.
50亞多尼雅 懼怕 所羅門 ，就起來，去抓住祭壇的角。
51And they told Solomon, saying: Behold Adonias, fearing king Solomon, hath taken hold of the horn of the altar, saying: Let king Solomon swear to me this day, that he will not kill his servant with the sword.
51有人告訴 所羅門 說：「 亞多尼雅 懼怕 所羅門 王，現在抓住祭壇的角，說：『願 所羅門 王今日向我起誓，必不用刀殺僕人。』」
52And Solomon said: If he be a good man, there shall not so much as one hair of his head fall to the ground: but if evil be found in him, he shall die.
52所羅門 說：「他若作忠義的人，連一根頭髮也不致落在地上；他若行惡，必要死亡。」
53Then king Solomon sent, and brought him out from the altar: and going in he worshipped king Solomon: and Solomon said to him: Go to thy house.
53於是 所羅門 王差遣人，使 亞多尼雅 從壇上下來，他就來，向 所羅門 王下拜； 所羅門 對他說：「你回家去吧！」
