1And after these things, Naboth the Jezrahelite, who was in Jezrahel, had at that time a vineyard near the palace of Achab king of Samaria.
1這事以後,又有一事。 耶斯列 人 拿伯 在 耶斯列 有一個葡萄園,靠近 撒馬利亞 王 亞哈 的宮。
2And Achab spoke to Naboth, saying: Give me thy vineyard, that I may make me a garden of herbs, because it is nigh, and adjoining to my house, and I will give thee for it a better vineyard: or if thou think it more convenient for thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money.
2亞哈 對 拿伯 說:「你將你的葡萄園給我作菜園,因為是靠近我的宮;我就把更好的葡萄園換給你,或是你要銀子,我就按着價值給你。」
3Naboth answered him: The Lord be merciful to me, and not let me give thee the inheritance of my fathers.
3拿伯 對 亞哈 說:「我敬畏耶和華,萬不敢將我先人留下的產業給你。」
4And Achab came into his house angry and fretting, because of the word that Naboth the Jezrahelite had spoken to him, saying: I will not give thee the inheritance of my fathers. And casting himself upon his bed, he turned away his face to the wall, and would eat no bread.
4亞哈 因 耶斯列 人 拿伯 說「我不敢將我先人留下的產業給你」,就悶悶不樂地回宮,躺在床上,轉臉向內,也不吃飯。
5And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and said to him: What is the matter that thy soul is so grieved? and why eatest thou no bread?
5王后 耶洗別 來問他說:「你為甚麼心裏這樣憂悶,不吃飯呢?」
6And he answered her: I spoke to Naboth the Jezrahelite, and said to him: Give me thy vineyard, and take money for it: or if it please thee, I will give thee a better vineyard for it. And he said: I will not give thee my vineyard.
6他回答說:「因我向 耶斯列 人 拿伯 說:『你將你的葡萄園給我,我給你價銀,或是你願意,我就把 別的 葡萄園換給你』;他卻說:『我不將我的葡萄園給你。』」
7Then Jezabel his wife said to him: Thou art of great authority indeed, and governest well the kingdom of Israel. Arise, and eat bread, and be of good cheer, I will give thee the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite.
7王后 耶洗別 對 亞哈 說:「你現在是治理 以色列 國不是?只管起來,心裏暢暢快快地吃飯,我必將 耶斯列 人 拿伯 的葡萄園給你。」
8So she wrote letter’s in Achab’s name, and sealed them with his ring, and sent them to the ancients, and the chief men that were in his city, and that dwelt with Naboth.
8於是託 亞哈 的名寫信,用王的印印上,送給那些與 拿伯 同城居住的長老貴冑。
9And this was the tenor of the letters: Proclaim a fast, and make Naboth sit among the chief of the people,
9信上寫着說:「你們當宣告禁食,叫 拿伯 坐在民間的高位上,
10And suborn two men, sons of Belial against him, and let them bear false witness: that he hath blasphemed God and the king: and then carry him out, and stone him, and so let him die.
10又叫兩個匪徒坐在 拿伯 對面,作見證告他說:『你謗瀆上帝和王了』;隨後就把他拉出去用石頭打死。」
11And the men of his city, the ancients and nobles, that dwelt with him in the city, did as Jezabel had commanded them, and as it was written in the letters which she had sent to them:
11那些與 拿伯 同城居住的長老貴冑得了 耶洗別 的信,就照信而行,
12They proclaimed a fast, and made Naboth sit among the chief of the people.
12宣告禁食,叫 拿伯 坐在民間的高位上。
13And bringing two men, sons of the devil, they made them sit against him: and they, like men of the devil, bore witness against him before the people, saying: Naboth hath blasphemed God and the king: wherefore they brought him forth without the city, and stoned him to death.
13有兩個匪徒來,坐在 拿伯 的對面,當着眾民作見證告他說:「 拿伯 謗瀆上帝和王了!」眾人就把他拉到城外,用石頭打死。
14And they sent to Jezabel, saying: Naboth is stoned, and is dead.
14於是打發人去見 耶洗別 ,說:「 拿伯 被石頭打死了。」
15And it came to pass when Jezabel heard that Naboth was stoned, and dead, that she said to Achab: Arise and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, who would not agree with thee, and give it thee for money: for Naboth is not alive, but dead.
15耶洗別 聽見 拿伯 被石頭打死,就對 亞哈 說:「你起來得 耶斯列 人 拿伯 不肯為價銀給你的葡萄園吧!現在他已經死了。」
16And when Achab heard this, to wit, that Naboth was dead, he arose, and went down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezrahelite, to take possession of it.
16亞哈 聽見 拿伯 死了,就起來,下去要得 耶斯列 人 拿伯 的葡萄園。
17And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
17耶和華的話臨到 提斯比 人 以利亞 說:
18Arise, and go down to meet Achab king of Israel, who is in Samaria: behold he is going down to the vineyard of Naboth, to take possession of it:
18「你起來,去見住 撒馬利亞 的 以色列 王 亞哈 ,他下去要得 拿伯 的葡萄園,現今正在那園裏。
19And thou shalt speak to him, saying: Thus saith the Lord: Thou hast slain, moreover also thou hast taken possession. And after these words thou shalt add: Thus saith the Lord: In this place, wherein the dogs have licked the blood of Naboth, they shall lick thy blood also.
19你要對他說:『耶和華如此說:你殺了人,又得他的產業嗎?』又要對他說:『耶和華如此說:狗在何處舔 拿伯 的血,也必在何處舔你的血。』」
20And Achab said to Elias: Hast thou found me thy enemy? He said: I have found thee, because thou art sold, to do evil in the sight of the Lord.
20亞哈 對 以利亞 說:「我仇敵啊,你找到我嗎?」他回答說:「我找到你了;因為你賣了自己,行耶和華眼中看為惡的事。
21Behold I will bring evil upon thee, and I will cut down thy posterity, and I will kill of Achab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up, and the last in Israel.
21耶和華說 :『我必使災禍臨到你,將你除盡。凡屬你的男丁,無論困住的、自由的,都從 以色列 中剪除。
22And I will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and like the house of Baasa the son of Ahias: for what thou hast done, to provoke me to anger, and for making Israel to sin.
22我必使你的家像 尼八 的兒子 耶羅波安 的家,又像 亞希雅 的兒子 巴沙 的家;因為你惹我發怒,又使 以色列 人陷在罪裏。』
23And of Jezabel also the Lord spoke, saying: The dogs shall eat Jezabel in the field of Jezrahel.
23論到 耶洗別 ,耶和華也說:『狗在 耶斯列 的外郭必吃 耶洗別 的肉。
24If Achab die in the city, the dogs shall eat him: but if he die in the field, the birds of the air shall eat him.
24凡屬 亞哈 的人,死在城中的必被狗吃,死在田野的必被空中的鳥吃。』」 (
25Now there was not such another as Achab, who was sold to do evil in the sight of the Lord: for his wife Jezabel set him on,
25從來沒有像 亞哈 的,因他自賣,行耶和華眼中看為惡的事,受了王后 耶洗別 的聳動;
26And he became abominable, insomuch that he followed the idols which the Amorrhites had made, whom the Lord destroyed before the face of the children of Israel.
26就照耶和華在 以色列 人面前所趕出的 亞摩利 人,行了最可憎惡的事,信從偶像。)
27And when Achab had heard these words, he rent his garments, and put haircloth upon his flesh, and fasted and slept in sackcloth, and walked with his head cast down.
27亞哈 聽見這話,就撕裂衣服,禁食,身穿麻布,睡臥也穿着麻布,並且緩緩而行。
28And the word of the Lord came to Elias the Thesbite, saying:
28耶和華的話臨到 提斯比 人 以利亞 說:
29Hast thou not seen Achab humbled before me? therefore, because he hath humbled himself for my sake, I will not bring the evil in his days, but in his son’s days will I bring the evil upon his house.
29「 亞哈 在我面前這樣自卑,你看見了嗎?因他在我面前自卑,他還在世的時候,我不降這禍;到他兒子的時候,我必降這禍與他的家。」
