Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1When David was a little past the top, behold, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth met him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a container 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。
2The king said to Ziba, “What do you mean by these?” Ziba said, “The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that those who are faint in the wilderness may drink.”
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。」
3The king said, “Where is your master’s son?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem; for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will 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。』」
4Then the king said to Ziba, “Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” Ziba said, “I bow down. Let me find favor in your sight, 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。」
5When King David came to Bahurim, behold, a man of the family of Saul’s house came out, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera. He came out and cursed as he came.
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，
6He cast stones at David and at all the servants of King David, and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
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。
7Shimei said when he cursed, “Be gone, be gone, you man of blood, and wicked fellow!
7示每 咒罵說：「你這流人血的壞人哪，去吧去吧！
8The LORD has returned on you all the blood of Saul’s house, in whose place you have reigned! The LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son! Behold, you are caught by your own mischief, because you are 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。」
9Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please let me go over and take 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。」
10The king said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? Because he curses, and because the LORD has said to him, ‘Curse David,’ who then shall say, ‘Why have you 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？」
11David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my son, who came out of my bowels, seeks my life. How much more this Benjamite, now? Leave him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD has invited 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。
12It may be that the LORD will look on the wrong done to me, and that the LORD will repay me good for the cursing of me today.”
12或者耶和華見我遭難，為我今日被這人咒罵，就施恩與我。」
13So David and his men went by the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside opposite him and cursed as he went, threw stones at him, and threw dust.
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。
14The king and all the people who were with him arrived weary; and he refreshed himself 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。
15Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel 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。
16When Hushai the Archite, David’s friend, had come to Absalom, Hushai said to Absalom, “Long live the king! Long live the 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！」
17Absalom said to Hushai, “Is this your kindness to your friend? Why didn’t you go with your 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？」
18Hushai said to Absalom, “No; but whomever the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, I will be his, and I will stay with him.
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。
19Again, whom should I serve? Shouldn’t I serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father’s presence, so I will be in your presence.”
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。」
20Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, “Give your counsel what we shall do.”
20押沙龍 對 亞希多弗 說：「你們出個主意，我們怎樣行才好？」
21Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father’s concubines that he has left to keep the house. Then all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”
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 Absalom went in to his father’s concubines in the sight of 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。
23The counsel of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if a man inquired at the inner sanctuary of God. All the counsel of Ahithophel was like this both with David and 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。
