Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now when David and his men were come to Siceleg on the third day, the Amalecites had made an invasion on the south side upon Siceleg, and had smitten Siceleg, and burnt it with fire.
1第三日， 大衛 和跟隨他的人到了 洗革拉 。 亞瑪力 人已經侵奪南地，攻破 洗革拉 ，用火焚燒，
2And had taken the women captives that were in it, both little and great: and they had not killed any person, but had carried them with them, and went on their way.
2擄了城內的婦女和其中的大小人口，卻沒有殺一個，都帶着走了。
3So when David and his men came to the city, and found it burnt with fire, and that their wives and their sons, and their daughters were taken captives,
3大衛 和跟隨他的人到了那城，不料，城已燒毀，他們的妻子兒女都被擄去了。
4David and the people that were with him, lifted up their voices, and wept till they had no more tears.
4大衛 和跟隨他的人就放聲大哭，直哭得沒有氣力。
5For the two wives also of David were taken captives, Achinoam the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel.
5大衛 的兩個妻－ 耶斯列 人 亞希暖 和作過 拿八 妻的 迦密 人 亞比該 ，也被擄去了。
6And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons, and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God.
6大衛 甚是焦急，因眾人為自己的兒女苦惱，說：「要用石頭打死他。」 大衛 卻倚靠耶和華－他的上帝，心裏堅固。
7And he said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech: Bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.
7大衛 對 亞希米勒 的兒子祭司 亞比亞他 說：「請你將以弗得拿過來。」 亞比亞他 就將以弗得拿到 大衛 面前。
8And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I pursue after these robbers, and shall I overtake them, or not? And the Lord said to him: Pursue after them: for thou shalt surely overtake them and recover the prey.
8大衛 求問耶和華說：「我追趕敵軍，追得上追不上呢？」耶和華說：「你可以追，必追得上，都救得回來。」
9So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor: and some being weary stayed there.
9於是， 大衛 和跟隨他的六百人來到 比梭溪 ；有不能前去的就留在那裏。
10But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed, who being weary could not go over the torrent Besor.
10大衛 卻帶着四百人往前追趕，有二百人疲乏，不能過 比梭溪 ，所以留在那裏。
11And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David: and they gave him bread to eat, and water to drink,
11這四百人在田野遇見一個 埃及 人，就帶他到 大衛 面前，給他餅吃，給他水喝，
12As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.
12又給他一塊無花果餅，兩個葡萄餅。他吃了，就精神復原；因為他三日三夜沒有吃餅，沒有喝水。
13And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong? or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite, and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago.
13大衛 問他說：「你是屬誰的？你是哪裏的人？」他回答說：「我是 埃及 的少年人，是 亞瑪力 人的奴僕；因我三日前患病，我主人就把我撇棄了。
14For we made an invasion on the south side of Cerethi, and upon Juda, and upon the south of Caleb, and we burnt Siceleg with fire.
14我們侵奪了 基利提 的南方和屬 猶大 的地，並 迦勒 地的南方，又用火燒了 洗革拉 。」
15And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? And he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him.
15大衛 問他說：「你肯領我們到敵軍那裏不肯？」他回答說：「你要向我指着上帝起誓，不殺我，也不將我交在我主人手裏，我就領你下到敵軍那裏。」
16And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey, and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.
16那人領 大衛 下去，見他們散在地上，吃喝跳舞，因為從 非利士 地和 猶大 地所擄來的財物甚多。
17And David slew them from the evening unto the evening of the next day, and there escaped not a man of them, but four hundred young men, who had gotten upon camels, and fled.
17大衛 從黎明直到次日晚上，擊殺他們，除了四百騎駱駝的少年人之外，沒有一個逃脫的。
18So David recovered all that the Amalecites had taken, and he rescued his two wives.
18亞瑪力 人所擄去的財物， 大衛 全都奪回，並救回他的兩個妻來。
19And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken: David recovered all.
19凡 亞瑪力 人所擄去的，無論大小、兒女、財物， 大衛 都奪回來，沒有失落一個。
20And he took all the flocks and the herds, and made them go before him: and they said: This is the prey of David.
20大衛 所奪來的牛群羊群，跟隨他的人趕在 原有的 群畜前邊，說：「這是 大衛 的掠物。」
21And David came to the two hundred men, who being weary had stayed, and were not able to follow David, and he had ordered them to abide at the torrent Besor: and they came out to meet David, and the people that were with him. And David coming to the people saluted them peaceably.
21大衛 到了那疲乏不能跟隨、留在 比梭溪 的二百人那裏。他們出來迎接 大衛 並跟隨的人。 大衛 前來問他們安。
22Then all the wicked and unjust men that had gone with David answering, said: Because they came not with us, we will not give them any thing of the prey which we have recovered: but let every man take his wife and his children, and be contented with them, and go his way.
22跟隨 大衛 人中的惡人和匪類說：「這些人既然沒有和我們同去，我們所奪的財物就不分給他們，只將他們各人的妻子兒女給他們，使他們帶去就是了。」
23But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands.
23大衛 說：「弟兄們，耶和華所賜給我們的，不可不分給他們；因為他保佑我們，將那攻擊我們的敵軍交在我們手裏。
24And no man shall hearken to you in this matter. But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.
24這事誰肯依從你們呢？上陣的得多少，看守器具的也得多少；應當大家平分。」
25And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute, and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel.
25大衛 定此為 以色列 的律例典章，從那日直到今日。
26Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord.
26大衛 到了 洗革拉 ，從掠物中取些送給他朋友 猶大 的長老，說：「這是從耶和華仇敵那裏奪來的，送你們為禮物。」
27To them that were in Bethel, and that were in Ramoth to the south, and to them that were in Jether,
27他送禮物給住 伯特利 的，南地 拉末 的， 雅提珥 的；
28And to them that were in Aroer and that were in Sephamoth, and that were in Esthamo,
28住 亞羅珥 的， 息末 的， 以實提莫 的；
29And that were in Rachal, and that were in the cities of Jerameel, and that were in the cities of Ceni,
29住 拉哈勒 的， 耶拉篾 各城的， 基尼 各城的；
30And that were in Arama, and that were in the lake Asan, and that were in Athach,
30住 何珥瑪 的， 歌拉珊 的， 亞撻 的；
31And that were in Hebron, and to the rest that were in those places, in which David had abode with his men.
31住 希伯崙 的，並 大衛 和跟隨他的人素來所到之處的人。
