1And when David was a little past the top of the hill, behold Siba the servant of Miphiboseth came to meet him with two asses, laden with two hundred loaves of bread, and a hundred bunches of raisins, a hundred cakes of figs, and a vessel of wine.
1大衛 剛過 山 頂，見 米非波設 的僕人 洗巴 拉着備好了的兩匹驢，驢上馱着二百麵餅，一百葡萄餅，一百個夏天的果餅，一皮袋酒來迎接他。
2And the king said to Siba: What mean these things? And Siba answered: The asses are for the king’s household to sit on: and the loaves and the figs for thy servants to eat, and the wine to drink if any man be faint in the desert.
2王問 洗巴 說：「你帶這些來是甚麼意思呢？」 洗巴 說：「驢是給王的家眷騎的；麵餅和夏天的果餅是給少年人吃的；酒是給在曠野疲乏人喝的。」
3And the king said: Where is thy master’s son? And Siba answered the king: He remained in Jerusalem, saying: Today will the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father.
3王問說：「你主人的兒子在哪裏呢？」 洗巴 回答王說：「他仍在 耶路撒冷 ，因他說：『 以色列 人今日必將我父的國歸還我。』」
4And the king said to Siba: I give thee all that belonged to Miphiboseth. And Siba said: I beseech thee let me find grace before thee, my lord, O king.
4王對 洗巴 說：「凡屬 米非波設 的都歸你了。」 洗巴 說：「我叩拜我主我王，願我在你眼前蒙恩。」
5And king David came as far as Bahurim: and behold there came out from thence a man of the kindred of the house of Saul named Semei, the son of Gera, and coming out he cursed as he went on,
5大衛 王到了 巴戶琳 ，見有一個人出來，是 掃羅 族 基拉 的兒子，名叫 示每 。他一面走一面咒罵，
6And he threw stones at David, and at all the servants of king David: and all the people, and all the warriors walked on the right, and on the left side of the king.
6又拿石頭砍 大衛 王和王的臣僕；眾民和勇士都在王的左右。
7And thus said Semei when he cursed the king: Come out, come out, thou man of blood, and thou man of Belial.
7示每 咒罵說：「你這流人血的壞人哪，去吧去吧！
8The Lord hath repaid thee for all the blood of the house of Saul: because thou hast usurped the kingdom in his stead, and the Lord hath given the kingdom into the hand of Absalom thy son: and behold thy evils press upon thee, because thou art a man of blood.
8你流 掃羅 全家的血，接續他作王；耶和華把這罪歸在你身上，將這國交給你兒子 押沙龍 。現在你自取其禍，因為你是流人血的人。」
9And Abisai the son of Sarvia said to the king: Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? I will go, and cut off his head.
9洗魯雅 的兒子 亞比篩 對王說：「這死狗豈可咒罵我主我王呢？求你容我過去，割下他的頭來。」
10And the king said: What have I to do with you, ye sons of Sarvia? Let him alone and let him curse: for the Lord hath bid him curse David: and who is he that shall dare say, why hath he done so?
10王說：「 洗魯雅 的兒子，我與你們有何關涉呢？他咒罵是因耶和華吩咐他說：『你要咒罵 大衛 。』如此，誰敢說你為甚麼這樣行呢？」
11And the king said to Abisai, and to all his servants: Behold my son, who came forth from my bowels, seeketh my life: how much more now a son of Jemini? let him alone that he may curse as the Lord hath bidden him.
11大衛 又對 亞比篩 和眾臣僕說：「我親生的兒子尚且尋索我的性命，何況這 便雅憫 人呢？由他咒罵吧！因為這是耶和華吩咐他的。
12Perhaps the Lord may look upon my affliction, and the Lord may render me good for the cursing of this day.
12或者耶和華見我遭難，為我今日被這人咒罵，就施恩與我。」
13And David and his men with him went by the way. And Semei by the hill’s side went over against him, cursing, and casting stones at him, and scattering earth.
13於是 大衛 和跟隨他的人往前行走。 示每 在 大衛 對面山坡，一面行走一面咒罵，又拿石頭砍他，拿土揚他。
14And the king and all the people with him came weary, and refreshed themselves there.
14王和跟隨他的眾人疲疲乏乏地到了一個地方，就在那裏歇息歇息。
15But Absalom and all his people came into Jerusalem, and Achitophel was with him.
15押沙龍 和 以色列 眾人來到 耶路撒冷 ； 亞希多弗 也與他同來。
16And when Chusai the Arachite, David’s friend, was come to Absalom, he said to him: God save thee, O king, God save thee, O king.
16大衛 的朋友 亞基 人 戶篩 去見 押沙龍 ，對他說：「願王萬歲！願王萬歲！」
17And Absalom said to him: Is this thy kindness to thy friend? Why wentest thou not with thy friend?
17押沙龍 問 戶篩 說：「這是你恩待朋友嗎？為甚麼不與你的朋友同去呢？」
18And Chusai answered Absalom: Nay: for I will be his, whom the Lord hath chosen, and all this people, and all Israel, and with him will I abide.
18戶篩 對 押沙龍 說：「不然，耶和華和這民，並 以色列 眾人所揀選的，我必歸順他，與他同住。
19Besides this, whom shall I serve? is it not the king’s son? as I have served thy father, so will I serve thee also.
19再者，我當服事誰呢？豈不是前王的兒子嗎？我怎樣服事你父親，也必照樣服事你。」
20And Absalom said to Achitophel: Consult what we are to do.
20押沙龍 對 亞希多弗 說：「你們出個主意，我們怎樣行才好？」
21And Achitophel said to Absalom: Go in to the concubines of thy father, whom he hath left to keep the house: that when all Israel shall hear that thou hast disgraced thy father, their hands may be strengthened with thee.
21亞希多弗 對 押沙龍 說：「你父所留下看守宮殿的妃嬪，你可以與她們親近。 以色列 眾人聽見你父親憎惡你，凡歸順你人的手就更堅強。」
22So they spread a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and he went in to his father’s concubines before all Israel.
22於是人為 押沙龍 在宮殿的平頂上支搭帳棚； 押沙龍 在 以色列 眾人眼前，與他父的妃嬪親近。
23Now the counsel of Achitophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man should consult God: so was all the counsel of Achitophel, both when he was with David, and when he was with Absalom.
23那時 亞希多弗 所出的主意好像人問上帝的話一樣；他昔日給 大衛 ，今日給 押沙龍 所出的主意，都是這樣。
