Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now the days of David drew nigh that he should die; and he charged Solomon his son, saying,
1大衛 的死期臨近了，就囑咐他兒子 所羅門 說：
2I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man;
2「我現在要走世人必走的路。所以，你當剛強，作大丈夫，
3And keep the charge of the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and his testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself:
3遵守耶和華－你上帝所吩咐的，照着 摩西 律法上所寫的行主的道，謹守他的律例、誡命、典章、法度。這樣，你無論做甚麼事，不拘往何處去，盡都亨通。
4That the LORD may continue his word which he spake concerning me, saying, If thy children take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth with all their heart and with all their soul, there shall not fail thee (said he) a man on the throne of Israel.
4耶和華必成就向我所應許的話說：『你的子孫若謹慎自己的行為，盡心盡意誠誠實實地行在我面前，就不斷人坐 以色列 的國位。』
5Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner, and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.
5你知道 洗魯雅 的兒子 約押 向我所行的，就是殺了 以色列 的兩個元帥： 尼珥 的兒子 押尼珥 和 益帖 的兒子 亞瑪撒 。他在太平之時流這二人的血，如在爭戰之時一樣，將這血染了腰間束的帶和腳上穿的鞋。
6Do therefore according to thy wisdom, and let not his hoar head go down to the grave in peace.
6所以你要照你的智慧行，不容他白頭安然下陰間。
7But shew kindness unto the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be of those that eat at thy table: for so they came to me when I fled because of Absalom thy brother.
7你當恩待 基列 人 巴西萊 的眾子，使他們常與你同席吃飯；因為我躲避你哥哥 押沙龍 的時候，他們 拿食物 來迎接我。
8And, behold, thou hast with thee Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite of Bahurim, which cursed me with a grievous curse in the day when I went to Mahanaim: but he came down to meet me at Jordan, and I sware to him by the LORD , saying, I will not put thee to death with the sword.
8在你這裏有 巴戶琳 的 便雅憫 人， 基拉 的兒子 示每 ；我往 瑪哈念 去的那日，他用狠毒的言語咒罵我，後來卻下 約旦河 迎接我，我就指着耶和華向他起誓說：『我必不用刀殺你。』
9Now therefore hold him not guiltless: for thou art a wise man, and knowest what thou oughtest to do unto him; but his hoar head bring thou down to the grave with blood.
9現在你不要以他為無罪。你是聰明人，必知道怎樣待他，使他白頭見殺，流血下到陰間。」
10So David slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David.
10大衛 與他列祖同睡，葬在 大衛城 。
11And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem.
11大衛 作 以色列 王四十年：在 希伯崙 作王七年，在 耶路撒冷 作王三十三年。
12¶ Then sat Solomon upon the throne of David his father; and his kingdom was established greatly.
12所羅門 坐他父親 大衛 的位，他的國甚是堅固。
13¶ And Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bath-sheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, Comest thou peaceably? And he said, Peaceably.
13哈及 的兒子 亞多尼雅 去見 所羅門 的母親 拔示巴 ， 拔示巴 問他說：「你來是為平安嗎？」回答說：「是為平安」；
14He said moreover, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And she said, Say on.
14又說：「我有話對你說。」 拔示巴 說：「你說吧。」
15And he said, Thou knowest that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel set their faces on me, that I should reign: howbeit the kingdom is turned about, and is become my brother’s: for it was his from the LORD .
15亞多尼雅 說：「你知道國原是歸我的， 以色列 眾人也都仰望我作王，不料，國反歸了我兄弟，因他得國是出乎耶和華。
16And now I ask one petition of thee, deny me not. And she said unto him, Say on.
16現在我有一件事求你，望你不要推辭。」 拔示巴 說：「你說吧。」
17And he said, Speak, I pray thee, unto Solomon the king, (for he will not say thee nay,) that he give me Abishag the Shunammite to wife.
17他說：「求你請 所羅門 王將 書念 的女子 亞比煞 賜我為妻，因他必不推辭你。」
18And Bath-sheba said, Well; I will speak for thee unto the king.
18拔示巴 說：「好，我必為你對王提說。」
19¶ Bath-sheba therefore went unto king Solomon, to speak unto him for Adonijah. And the king rose up to meet her, and bowed himself unto her, and sat down on his throne, and caused a seat to be set for the king’s mother; and she sat on his right hand.
19於是， 拔示巴 去見 所羅門 王，要為 亞多尼雅 提說；王起來迎接，向她下拜，就坐在位上，吩咐人為王母設一座位，她便坐在王的右邊。
20Then she said, I desire one small petition of thee; I pray thee , say me not nay. And the king said unto her, Ask on, my mother: for I will not say thee nay.
20拔示巴 說：「我有一件小事求你，望你不要推辭。」王說：「請母親說，我必不推辭。」
21And she said, Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah thy brother to wife.
21拔示巴 說：「求你將 書念 的女子 亞比煞 賜給你哥哥 亞多尼雅 為妻。」
22And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah.
22所羅門 王對他母親說：「為何單替他求 書念 的女子 亞比煞 呢？也可以為他求國吧！他是我的哥哥，他有祭司 亞比亞他 和 洗魯雅 的兒子 約押 為輔佐 。」
23Then king Solomon sware by the LORD , saying, God do so to me, and more also, if Adonijah have not spoken this word against his own life.
23所羅門 王就指着耶和華起誓說：「 亞多尼雅 這話是自己送命，不然，願上帝重重地降罰與我。
24Now therefore, as the LORD liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
24耶和華堅立我，使我坐在父親 大衛 的位上，照着所應許的話為我建立家室；現在我指着永生的耶和華起誓， 亞多尼雅 今日必被治死。」
25And king Solomon sent by the hand of Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he fell upon him that he died.
25於是 所羅門 王差遣 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，將 亞多尼雅 殺死。
26¶ And unto Abiathar the priest said the king, Get thee to Anathoth, unto thine own fields; for thou art worthy of death: but I will not at this time put thee to death, because thou barest the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because thou hast been afflicted in all wherein my father was afflicted.
26王對祭司 亞比亞他 說：「你回 亞拿突 歸自己的田地去吧！你本是該死的，但因你在我父親 大衛 面前抬過主耶和華的 約 櫃，又與我父親同受一切苦難，所以我今日不將你殺死。」
27So Solomon thrust out Abiathar from being priest unto the LORD ; that he might fulfil the word of the LORD , which he spake concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.
27所羅門 就革除 亞比亞他 ，不許他作耶和華的祭司。這樣，便應驗耶和華在 示羅 論 以利 家所說的話。
28¶ Then tidings came to Joab: for Joab had turned after Adonijah, though he turned not after Absalom. And Joab fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD , and caught hold on the horns of the altar.
28約押 雖然沒有歸從 押沙龍 ，卻歸從了 亞多尼雅 。他聽見這風聲，就逃到耶和華的帳幕，抓住祭壇的角。
29And it was told king Solomon that Joab was fled unto the tabernacle of the LORD ; and, behold, he is by the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, Go, fall upon him.
29有人告訴 所羅門 王說：「 約押 逃到耶和華的帳幕，現今在祭壇的旁邊。」 所羅門 就差遣 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，說：「你去將他殺死。」
30And Benaiah came to the tabernacle of the LORD , and said unto him, Thus saith the king, Come forth. And he said, Nay; but I will die here. And Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.
30比拿雅 來到耶和華的帳幕，對 約押 說：「王吩咐說，你出來吧！」他說：「我不出去，我要死在這裏。」 比拿雅 就去回覆王，說 約押 如此如此回答我。
31And the king said unto him, Do as he hath said, and fall upon him, and bury him; that thou mayest take away the innocent blood, which Joab shed, from me, and from the house of my father.
31王說：「你可以照着他的話行，殺死他，將他葬埋，好叫 約押 流無辜人血的罪不歸我和我的父家了。
32And the LORD shall return his blood upon his own head, who fell upon two men more righteous and better than he, and slew them with the sword, my father David not knowing thereof, to wit , Abner the son of Ner, captain of the host of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, captain of the host of Judah.
32耶和華必使 約押 流人血的罪歸到他自己的頭上；因為他用刀殺了兩個比他又義又好的人，就是 以色列 元帥 尼珥 的兒子 押尼珥 和 猶大 元帥 益帖 的兒子 亞瑪撒 ，我父親 大衛 卻不知道。
33Their blood shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever: but upon David, and upon his seed, and upon his house, and upon his throne, shall there be peace for ever from the LORD .
33故此，流這二人血的罪必歸到 約押 和他後裔的頭上，直到永遠；惟有 大衛 和他的後裔，並他的家與國，必從耶和華那裏得平安，直到永遠。」
34So Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up, and fell upon him, and slew him: and he was buried in his own house in the wilderness.
34於是 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 上去，將 約押 殺死，葬在曠野 約押 自己的墳墓裏。
35¶ And the king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada in his room over the host: and Zadok the priest did the king put in the room of Abiathar.
35王就立 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 作元帥，代替 約押 ，又使祭司 撒督 代替 亞比亞他 。
36¶ And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Build thee an house in Jerusalem, and dwell there, and go not forth thence any whither.
36王差遣人將 示每 召來，對他說：「你要在 耶路撒冷 建造房屋居住，不可出來往別處去。
37For it shall be, that on the day thou goest out, and passest over the brook Kidron, thou shalt know for certain that thou shalt surely die: thy blood shall be upon thine own head.
37你當確實地知道，你何日出來過 汲淪溪 ，何日必死！你的罪必歸到自己的頭上。」
38And Shimei said unto the king, The saying is good: as my lord the king hath said, so will thy servant do. And Shimei dwelt in Jerusalem many days.
38示每 對王說：「這話甚好！我主我王怎樣說，僕人必怎樣行。」於是 示每 多日住在 耶路撒冷 。
39And it came to pass at the end of three years, that two of the servants of Shimei ran away unto Achish son of Maachah king of Gath. And they told Shimei, saying, Behold, thy servants be in Gath.
39過了三年， 示每 的兩個僕人逃到 迦特 王 瑪迦 的兒子 亞吉 那裏去。有人告訴 示每 說：「你的僕人在 迦特 。」
40And Shimei arose, and saddled his ass, and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants: and Shimei went, and brought his servants from Gath.
40示每 起來，備上驢，往 迦特 到 亞吉 那裏去找他的僕人，就從 迦特 帶他僕人回來。
41And it was told Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and was come again.
41有人告訴 所羅門 說：「 示每 出 耶路撒冷 往 迦特 去，回來了。」
42And the king sent and called for Shimei, and said unto him, Did I not make thee to swear by the LORD , and protested unto thee, saying, Know for a certain, on the day thou goest out, and walkest abroad any whither, that thou shalt surely die? and thou saidst unto me, The word that I have heard is good.
42王就差遣人將 示每 召了來，對他說：「我豈不是叫你指着耶和華起誓，並且警戒你說『你當確實地知道，你哪日出來往別處去，那日必死』嗎？你也對我說：『這話甚好，我必聽從。』
43Why then hast thou not kept the oath of the LORD , and the commandment that I have charged thee with?
43現在你為何不遵守你指着耶和華起的誓和我所吩咐你的命令呢？」
44The king said moreover to Shimei, Thou knowest all the wickedness which thine heart is privy to, that thou didst to David my father: therefore the LORD shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head;
44王又對 示每 說：「你向我父親 大衛 所行的一切惡事，你自己心裏也知道，所以耶和華必使你的罪惡歸到自己的頭上；
45And king Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD for ever.
45惟有 所羅門 王必得福，並且 大衛 的國位必在耶和華面前堅定，直到永遠。」
46So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; which went out, and fell upon him, that he died. And the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.
46於是王吩咐 耶何耶大 的兒子 比拿雅 ，他就去殺死 示每 。這樣，便堅定了 所羅門 的國位。
