1 Kings 19
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.
1亚哈 将 以利亚 一切所行的和他用刀杀众先知的事都告诉 耶洗别 。
2Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying: 'So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to-morrow about this time.'
2耶洗别 就差遣人去见 以利亚 ,告诉他说:「明日约在这时候,我若不使你的性命像那些人的性命一样,愿神明重重地降罚与我。」
3And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.
3以利亚 见这光景就起来逃命,到了 犹大 的 别是巴 ,将仆人留在那里,
4But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom-tree; and he requested for himself that he might die; and said: 'It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.'
4自己在旷野走了一日的路程,来到一棵罗腾树下,就坐在那里求死,说:「耶和华啊,罢了!求你取我的性命,因为我不胜于我的列祖。」
5And he lay down and slept under a broom-tree; and, behold, an angel touched him, and said unto him: 'Arise and eat.'
5他就躺在罗腾树下,睡着了。有一个天使拍他,说:「起来吃吧!」
6And he looked, and, behold, there was at his head a cake baked on the hot stones, and a cruse of water. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
6他观看,见头旁有一瓶水与炭火烧的饼,他就吃了喝了,仍然躺下。
7And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said: 'Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.'
7耶和华的使者第二次来拍他,说:「起来吃吧!因为你当走的路甚远。」
8And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meal forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.
8他就起来吃了喝了,仗着这饮食的力,走了四十昼夜,到了 神的山,就是 何烈山 。
9And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and He said unto him: 'What doest thou here, Elijah?'
9他在那里进了一个洞,就住在洞中。耶和华的话临到他说:「 以利亚 啊,你在这里做什么?」
10And he said: 'I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, thrown down Thine altars, and slain Thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.'
10他说:「我为耶和华—万军之 神大发热心;因为 以色列 人背弃了你的约,毁坏了你的坛,用刀杀了你的先知,只剩下我一个人,他们还要寻索我的命。」
11And He said: 'Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD.' And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and broke in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake;
11耶和华说:「你出来站在山上,在我面前。」那时耶和华从那里经过,在他面前有烈风大作,崩山碎石,耶和华却不在风中;风后地震,耶和华却不在其中;
12and after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.
12地震后有火,耶和华也不在火中;火后有微小的声音。
13And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entrance of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said: 'What doest thou here, Elijah?'
13以利亚 听见,就用外衣蒙上脸,出来站在洞口。有声音向他说:「 以利亚 啊,你在这里做什么?」
14And he said: 'I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, thrown down Thine altars, and slain Thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.'
14他说:「我为耶和华—万军之 神大发热心;因为 以色列 人背弃了你的约,毁坏了你的坛,用刀杀了你的先知,只剩下我一个人,他们还要寻索我的命。」
15And the LORD said unto him: 'Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus; and when thou comest, thou shalt anoint Hazael to be king over Aram;
15耶和华对他说:「你回去,从旷野往 大马士革 去。到了那里,就要膏 哈薛 作 亚兰 王,
16and Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel; and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.
16又膏 宁示 的孙子 耶户 作 以色列 王,并膏 亚伯·米何拉 人 沙法 的儿子 以利沙 作先知接续你。
17And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth from the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay; and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.
17将来躲避 哈薛 之刀的,必被 耶户 所杀;躲避 耶户 之刀的,必被 以利沙 所杀。
18Yet will I leave seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.'
18但我在 以色列 人中 为自己 留下七千人,是未曾向 巴力 屈膝的,未曾与 巴力 亲嘴的。」
19So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing, with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth; and Elijah passed over unto him, and cast his mantle upon him.
19于是, 以利亚 离开那里走了,遇见 沙法 的儿子 以利沙 耕地;在他前头有十二对 牛 ,自己赶着第十二对。 以利亚 到他那里去,将自己的外衣搭在他身上。
20And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said: 'Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee.' And he said unto him: 'Go back; for what have I done to thee?'
20以利沙 就离开牛,跑到 以利亚 那里,说:「求你容我先与父母亲嘴,然后我便跟随你。」 以利亚 对他说:「你回去吧,我向你做了什么呢?」
21And he returned from following him, and took the yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.
21以利沙 就离开他回去,宰了一对牛,用套牛的器具煮肉给民吃,随后就起身跟随 以利亚 ,服事他。
