Genesis 20
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1And Abraham journeyed from thence toward the land of the South, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.
1亚伯拉罕 从那里向南地迁去,寄居在 加低斯 和 书珥 中间的 基拉耳 。
2And Abraham said of Sarah his wife: 'She is my sister.' And Abimelech king of Gerar sent, and took Sarah.
2亚伯拉罕 称他的妻 撒拉 为妹子, 基拉耳 王 亚比米勒 差人把 撒拉 取了去。
3But God came to Abimelech in a dream of the night, and said to him: 'Behold, thou shalt die, because of the woman whom thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife.'
3但夜间, 神来,在梦中对 亚比米勒 说:「你是个死人哪!因为你取了那女人来;她原是别人的妻子。」
4Now Abimelech had not come near her; and he said: 'Lord, wilt Thou slay even a righteous nation?
4亚比米勒 却还没有亲近 撒拉 ;他说:「主啊,连有义的国,你也要毁灭吗?
5Said he not himself unto me: She is my sister? and she, even she herself said: He is my brother. In the simplicity of my heart and the innocency of my hands have I done this.'
5那人岂不是自己对我说『她是我的妹子』吗?就是女人也自己说:『他是我的哥哥。』我做这事是心正手洁的。」
6And God said unto him in the dream: 'Yea, I know that in the simplicity of thy heart thou hast done this, and I also withheld thee from sinning against Me. Therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.
6神在梦中对他说:「我知道你做这事是心中正直;我也拦阻了你,免得你得罪我,所以我不容你沾着她。
7Now therefore restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and he shall pray for thee, and thou shalt live; and if thou restore her not, know thou that thou shalt surely die, thou, and all that are thine.'
7现在你把这人的妻子归还他;因为他是先知,他要为你祷告,使你存活。你若不归还他,你当知道,你和你所有的人都必要死。」
8And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told all these things in their ears; and the men were sore afraid.
8亚比米勒 清早起来,召了众臣仆来,将这些事都说给他们听,他们都甚惧怕。
9Then Abimelech called Abraham, and said unto him: 'What hast thou done unto us? and wherein have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? thou hast done deeds unto me that ought not to be done.'
9亚比米勒 召了 亚伯拉罕 来,对他说:「你怎么向我这样行呢?我在什么事上得罪了你,你竟使我和我国里的人陷在大罪里?你向我行不当行的事了!」
10And Abimelech said unto Abraham: 'What sawest thou, that thou hast done this thing?'
10亚比米勒 又对 亚伯拉罕 说:「你见了什么才做这事呢?」
11And Abraham said: 'Because I thought: Surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will slay me for my wife's sake.
11亚伯拉罕 说:「我以为这地方的人总不惧怕 神,必为我妻子的缘故杀我。
12And moreover she is indeed my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and so she became my wife.
12况且她也实在是我的妹子;她与我是同父异母,后来作了我的妻子。
13And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said unto her: This is thy kindness which thou shalt show unto me; at every place whither we shall come, say of me: He is my brother.'
13当 神叫我离开父家、飘流在外的时候,我对她说:『我们无论走到什么地方,你可以对人说:他是我的哥哥;这就是你待我的恩典了。』」
14And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and men-servants and women-servants, and gave them unto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
14亚比米勒 把牛、羊、仆婢赐给 亚伯拉罕 ,又把他的妻子 撒拉 归还他。
15And Abimelech said: 'Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.'
15亚比米勒 又说:「看哪,我的地都在你面前,你可以随意居住」;
16And unto Sarah he said: 'Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand pieces of silver; behold, it is for thee a covering of the eyes to all that are with thee; and before all men thou art righted.'
16又对 撒拉 说:「我给你哥哥一千银子,作为你在合家人面前遮羞的,你就在众人面前没有不是了。」
17And Abraham prayed unto God; and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his maid-servants; and they bore children.
17亚伯拉罕 祷告 神, 神就医好了 亚比米勒 和他的妻子,并他的众女仆,她们便能生育。
18For the LORD had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
18因耶和华为 亚伯拉罕 的妻子 撒拉 的缘故,已经使 亚比米勒 家中的妇人不能生育。
