撒母耳記上 1 Samuel

25:1	[hb5]	撒母耳死了．以色列眾人聚集、為他哀哭、將他葬在拉瑪、他自己的墳墓裡。〔墳墓原文作房屋〕大衛起身、下到巴蘭的曠野。
	[kjv]	And Samuel died; and all the Israelites were gathered together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.
	[bbe]	And death came to Samuel; and all Israel came together, weeping for him, and put his body in its resting-place in his house at Ramah. Then David went down to the waste land of Maon.
25:2	[hb5]	在瑪雲有一個人、他的產業在迦密．是一個大富戶、有三千綿羊、一千山羊、他正在迦密剪羊毛。
	[kjv]	And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats: and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.
	[bbe]	Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel; he was a great man and had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats: and he was cutting the wool of his sheep in Carmel.
25:3	[hb5]	那人名叫拿八、是迦勒族的人．他的妻名叫亞比該、是聰明俊美的婦人．拿八為人剛愎兇惡。
	[kjv]	Now the name of the man was Nabal; and the name of his wife Abigail: and she was a woman of good understanding, and of a beautiful countenance: but the man was churlish and evil in his doings; and he was of the house of Caleb.
	[bbe]	Now this man was named Nabal, and his wife's name was Abigail: she was a woman of good sense and pleasing looks: but the man was cruel and evil in his ways; he was of the family of Caleb.
25:4	[hb5]	大衛在曠野聽見說拿八剪羊毛。
	[kjv]	And David heard in the wilderness that Nabal did shear his sheep.
	[bbe]	And David had word in the waste land that Nabal was cutting the wool of his sheep.
25:5	[hb5]	大衛就打發十個僕人、吩咐他們、說、你們上迦密去、見拿八、提我的名問他安。
	[kjv]	And David sent out ten young men, and David said unto the young men, Get you up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name:
	[bbe]	And David sent ten young men, and said to them, Go up to Carmel and go to Nabal, and say kind words to him in my name;
25:6	[hb5]	要對那富戶如此說、願你平安、願你家平安、願你一切所有的都平安。
	[kjv]	And thus shall ye say to him that liveth in prosperity, Peace be both to thee, and peace be to thine house, and peace be unto all that thou hast.
	[bbe]	And say this to my brother, May all be well for you: peace be to you and your house and all you have.
25:7	[hb5]	現在我聽說有人為你剪羊毛．你的牧人在迦密的時候、和我們在一處、我們沒有欺負他們、他們也未曾失落甚麼。
	[kjv]	And now I have heard that thou hast shearers: now thy shepherds which were with us, we hurt them not, neither was there ought missing unto them, all the while they were in Carmel.
	[bbe]	I have had word that you have wool-cutters: now the keepers of your sheep have been with us, and we have done them no evil, and taken nothing of theirs while they were in Carmel.
25:8	[hb5]	可以問你的僕人、他們必告訴你．所以願我的僕人在你眼前蒙恩．因為是在好日子來的．求你隨手取點賜與僕人、和你兒子大衛。
	[kjv]	Ask thy young men, and they will shew thee. Wherefore let the young men find favour in thine eyes: for we come in a good day: give, I pray thee, whatsoever cometh to thine hand unto thy servants, and to thy son David.
	[bbe]	If your young men are questioned they will say the same thing. So now, let my young men have grace in your eyes, for we are come at a good time; please give anything you may have by you to your servants and to your son David.
25:9	[hb5]	大衛的僕人到了、將這話提大衛的名都告訴了拿八、就住了口。
	[kjv]	And when David's young men came, they spake to Nabal according to all those words in the name of David, and ceased.
	[bbe]	And when David's young men came, they said all this to Nabal, in David's name, and said nothing more.
25:10	[hb5]	拿八回答大衛的僕人說、大衛是誰．耶西的兒子是誰．近來悖逆主人奔逃的僕人甚多。
	[kjv]	And Nabal answered David's servants, and said, Who is David? and who is the son of Jesse? there be many servants now a days that break away every man from his master.
	[bbe]	And Nabal gave them his answer and said, Who is David? who is the son of Jesse? there are a number of servants in these days running away from their masters.
25:11	[hb5]	我豈可將飲食、和為我剪羊毛人所宰的肉、給我不知道從那裡來的人呢。
	[kjv]	Shall I then take my bread, and my water, and my flesh that I have killed for my shearers, and give it unto men, whom I know not whence they be?
	[bbe]	Am I to take my bread and my wine and the meat I have got ready for my wool-cutters and give it to men coming from I have no idea where?
25:12	[hb5]	大衛的僕人就轉身、從原路回去、照這話告訴大衛。
	[kjv]	So David's young men turned their way, and went again, and came and told him all those sayings.
	[bbe]	So David's young men, turning away, went back and gave him an account of everything he had said.
25:13	[hb5]	大衛向跟隨他的人說、你們各人都要帶上刀。眾人就都帶上刀．大衛也帶上刀．跟隨大衛上去的約有四百人．留下二百人看守器具。
	[kjv]	And David said unto his men, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword: and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the stuff.
	[bbe]	And David said to his men, Put on your swords, every one of you. And every man put on his sword; and David did the same; and about four hundred men went up with David, and two hundred kept watch over their goods.
25:14	[hb5]	有拿八的一個僕人告訴拿八的妻亞比該說、大衛從曠野打發使者來問我主人的安．主人卻辱罵他們。
	[kjv]	But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to salute our master; and he railed on them.
	[bbe]	But one of the young men said to Nabal's wife Abigail, David sent men from the waste land to say kind words to our master, and he gave them a rough answer.
25:15	[hb5]	但是那些人待我們甚好．我們在田野與他們來往的時候、沒有受他們的欺負、也未曾失落甚麼。
	[kjv]	But the men were very good unto us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we any thing, as long as we were conversant with them, when we were in the fields:
	[bbe]	But these men have been very good to us; they did us no wrong and nothing of ours was touched while we were with them in the fields:
25:16	[hb5]	我們在他們那裡牧羊的時候、他們晝夜作我們的保障。
	[kjv]	They were a wall unto us both by night and day, all the while we were with them keeping the sheep.
	[bbe]	But day and night they were like a wall round us while we were with them, looking after the sheep.
25:17	[hb5]	所以你當籌畫、看怎樣行纔好．不然、禍患定要臨到我主人、和他全家．他性情兇暴、無人敢與他說話。
	[kjv]	Now therefore know and consider what thou wilt do; for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household: for he is such a son of Belial, that a man cannot speak to him.
	[bbe]	So now, give thought to what you are going to do; for evil is in store for our master and all his house: for he is such a good-for-nothing person that it is not possible to say anything to him.
25:18	[hb5]	亞比該急忙將二百餅、兩皮袋酒、五隻收拾好了的羊、五細亞烘好了的穗子、一百葡萄餅、二百無花果餅、都馱在驢上．
	[kjv]	Then Abigail made haste, and took two hundred loaves, and two bottles of wine, and five sheep ready dressed, and five measures of parched corn, and an hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and laid them on asses.
	[bbe]	Then Abigail quickly took two hundred cakes of bread and two skins full of wine and five sheep ready for cooking and five measures of dry grain and a hundred parcels of dry grapes and two hundred cakes of figs, and put them on asses.
25:19	[hb5]	對僕人說、你們前頭走、我隨著你們去．這事他卻沒有告訴丈夫拿八。
	[kjv]	And she said unto her servants, Go on before me; behold, I come after you. But she told not her husband Nabal.
	[bbe]	And she said to her young men, Go on in front of me and I will come after you. But she said nothing to her husband Nabal.
25:20	[hb5]	亞比該騎著驢、正下山坡、見大衛和跟隨他的人從對面下來．亞比該就迎接他們。
	[kjv]	And it was so, as she rode on the ass, that she came down by the covert of the hill, and, behold, David and his men came down against her; and she met them.
	[bbe]	Now while she was going down under cover of the mountain on her ass, David and his men came down against her, and suddenly she came face to face with them.
25:21	[hb5]	大衛曾說、我在曠野為那人看守所有的、以致他一樣不失落、實在是徒然了．他向我以惡報善。
	[kjv]	Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow hath in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that pertained unto him: and he hath requited me evil for good.
	[bbe]	Now David had said, What was the use of my taking care of this man's goods in the waste land, so that there was no loss of anything which was his? he has only given me back evil for good.
25:22	[hb5]	凡屬拿八的男丁、我若留一個到明日早晨、願　神重重降罰與我。
	[kjv]	So and more also do God unto the enemies of David, if I leave of all that pertain to him by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
	[bbe]	May God's punishment be on David, if when morning comes there is so much as one male of his people still living.
25:23	[hb5]	亞比該見大衛、便急忙下驢、在大衛面前臉伏於地、叩拜．
	[kjv]	And when Abigail saw David, she hasted, and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground,
	[bbe]	And when Abigail saw David, she quickly got off her ass, falling down on her face before him.
25:24	[hb5]	俯伏在大衛的腳前、說、我主阿、願這罪歸我．求你容婢女向你進言．更求你聽婢女的話。
	[kjv]	And fell at his feet, and said, Upon me, my lord, upon me let this iniquity be: and let thine handmaid, I pray thee, speak in thine audience, and hear the words of thine handmaid.
	[bbe]	And falling at his feet she said, May the wrong be on me, my lord, on me: let your servant say a word to you, and give ear to the words of your servant.
25:25	[hb5]	我主不要理這壞人拿八、他的性情與他的名相稱．他名叫拿八、〔就是愚頑的意思〕他為人果然愚頑．但我主所打發的僕人、婢女並沒有看見。
	[kjv]	Let not my lord, I pray thee, regard this man of Belial, even Nabal: for as his name is, so is he; Nabal is his name, and folly is with him: but I thine handmaid saw not the young men of my lord, whom thou didst send.
	[bbe]	Let my lord give no attention to Nabal, that good-for-nothing: for as his name is, so is he, a man without sense: but I, your servant, did not see the young men whom my lord sent.
25:26	[hb5]	我主阿、耶和華既然阻止你親手報仇、取流血的罪、所以我指著永生的耶和華、又敢在你面前起誓、說、願你的仇敵、和謀害你的人、都像拿八一樣。
	[kjv]	Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing the LORD hath withholden thee from coming to shed blood, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal.
	[bbe]	So now, my lord, by the living God and by your living soul, seeing that the Lord has kept you from the crime of blood and from taking into your hands the punishment for your wrongs, may all your haters, and those who would do evil to my lord, be like Nabal.
25:27	[hb5]	如今求你將婢女送來的禮物、給跟隨你的僕人。
	[kjv]	And now this blessing which thine handmaid hath brought unto my lord, let it even be given unto the young men that follow my lord.
	[bbe]	And let this offering, which your servant gives to my lord, be given to the young men who are with my lord.
25:28	[hb5]	求你饒恕婢女的罪過．耶和華必為我主建立堅固的家、因我主為耶和華爭戰．並且在你平生的日子、查不出有甚麼過來。
	[kjv]	I pray thee, forgive the trespass of thine handmaid: for the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house; because my lord fighteth the battles of the LORD, and evil hath not been found in thee all thy days.
	[bbe]	And may the sin of your servant have forgiveness: for the Lord will certainly make your family strong, because my lord is fighting in the Lord's war; and no evil will be seen in you all your days.
25:29	[hb5]	雖有人起來追逼你、尋索你的性命、你的性命卻在耶和華你的　神那裡蒙保護、如包裹寶器一樣．你仇敵的性命、耶和華必拋去、如用機弦甩石一樣。
	[kjv]	Yet a man is risen to pursue thee, and to seek thy soul: but the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of life with the LORD thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out, as out of the middle of a sling.
	[bbe]	And though a man has taken up arms against you, putting your life in danger, still the soul of my lord will be kept safe among the band of the living with the Lord your God; and the souls of those who are against you he will send violently away from him, like stones from a bag.
25:30	[hb5]	我主現在若不親手報仇、流無辜人的血、到了耶和華照所應許你的話賜福與你、立你作以色列的王、那時我主必不至心裡不安、覺得良心有虧。耶和華賜福與我主的時候、求你記念婢女。
	[kjv]	And it shall come to pass, when the LORD shall have done to my lord according to all the good that he hath spoken concerning thee, and shall have appointed thee ruler over Israel;
	[bbe]	And when the Lord has done for my lord all those good things which he has said he will do for you, and has made you a ruler over Israel;
25:31	[hb5]	見上節
	[kjv]	That this shall be no grief unto thee, nor offence of heart unto my lord, either that thou hast shed blood causeless, or that my lord hath avenged himself: but when the LORD shall have dealt well with my lord, then remember thine handmaid.
	[bbe]	Then you will have no cause for grief, and my lord's heart will not be troubled because you have taken life without cause and have yourself given punishment for your wrongs: and when the Lord has been good to you, then give a thought to your servant.
25:32	[hb5]	大衛對亞比該說、耶和華以色列的　神、是應當稱頌的、因為他今日使你來迎接我．
	[kjv]	And David said to Abigail, Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, which sent thee this day to meet me:
	[bbe]	And David said to Abigail, May the Lord, the God of Israel, be praised, who sent you to me today:
25:33	[hb5]	你和你的見識也當稱讚、因為你今日攔阻我親手報仇、流人的血。
	[kjv]	And blessed be thy advice, and blessed be thou, which hast kept me this day from coming to shed blood, and from avenging myself with mine own hand.
	[bbe]	A blessing on your good sense and on you, who have kept me today from the crime of blood and from taking into my hands the punishment for my wrongs.
25:34	[hb5]	我指著阻止我加害於你的耶和華以色列永生的　神起誓、你若不速速的來迎接我、到明日早晨、凡屬拿八的男丁、必定不留一個。
	[kjv]	For in very deed, as the LORD God of Israel liveth, which hath kept me back from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall.
	[bbe]	For truly, by the living Lord, the God of Israel, who has kept me from doing you evil, if you had not been so quick in coming to me and meeting me, by dawn there would not have been in Nabal's house so much as one male living.
25:35	[hb5]	大衛受了亞比該送來的禮物．就對他說、我聽了你的話、准了你的情面．你可以平平安安的回家罷。
	[kjv]	So David received of her hand that which she had brought him, and said unto her, Go up in peace to thine house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person.
	[bbe]	Then David took from her hands her offering: and he said to her, Go back to your house in peace; see, I have given ear to your voice, and taken your offering with respect.
25:36	[hb5]	亞比該到拿八那裡、見他在家裡設擺筵席、如同王的筵席．拿八快樂大醉．亞比該無論大小事、都沒有告訴他、就等到次日早晨。
	[kjv]	And Abigail came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunken: wherefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
	[bbe]	And Abigail went back to Nabal; and he was feasting in his house like a king; and Nabal's heart was full of joy, for he had taken much wine; so she said nothing to him till dawn came.
25:37	[hb5]	到了早晨、拿八醒了酒、他的妻將這些事都告訴他、他就魂不附體、身僵如石頭一般。
	[kjv]	But it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, and his wife had told him these things, that his heart died within him, and he became as a stone.
	[bbe]	And in the morning, when the effect of the wine was gone, Nabal's wife gave him an account of all these things, and all the heart went out of him, and he became like stone.
25:38	[hb5]	過了十天、耶和華擊打拿八、他就死了。
	[kjv]	And it came to pass about ten days after, that the LORD smote Nabal, that he died.
	[bbe]	And about ten days after, the Lord sent disease on Nabal and death came to him.
25:39	[hb5]	大衛聽見拿八死了、就說、應當稱頌耶和華、因他伸了拿八羞辱我的冤、又阻止僕人行惡．也使拿八的惡歸到拿八的頭上。於是大衛打發人去、與亞比該說、要娶他為妻。
	[kjv]	And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be the LORD, that hath pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and hath kept his servant from evil: for the LORD hath returned the wickedness of Nabal upon his own head. And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife.
	[bbe]	And David, hearing that Nabal was dead, said, May the Lord be praised, who has taken up my cause against Nabal for the shame which he put on me, and has kept back his servant from evil, and has sent on Nabal's head the reward of his evil-doing. And David sent word to Abigail, desiring to take her as his wife.
25:40	[hb5]	大衛的僕人到了迦密見亞比該、對他說、大衛打發我們來見你、想要娶你為妻。
	[kjv]	And when the servants of David were come to Abigail to Carmel, they spake unto her, saying, David sent us unto thee, to take thee to him to wife.
	[bbe]	And when David's servants came to Carmel, to Abigail, they said to her, David has sent us to you to take you to him as his wife.
25:41	[hb5]	亞比該就起來、俯伏在地、說、我情願作婢女、洗我主僕人的腳。
	[kjv]	And she arose, and bowed herself on her face to the earth, and said, Behold, let thine handmaid be a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord.
	[bbe]	And she got up, and going down on her face to the earth, said, See, I am ready to be a servant-girl, washing the feet of the servants of my lord.
25:42	[hb5]	亞比該立刻起身、騎上驢、帶著五個使女、跟從大衛的使者去了、就作了大衛的妻。
	[kjv]	And Abigail hasted, and arose, and rode upon an ass, with five damsels of hers that went after her; and she went after the messengers of David, and became his wife.
	[bbe]	Then Abigail got up quickly and went on her ass, with five of her young women, after the men whom David had sent; and she became David's wife.
25:43	[hb5]	大衛先娶了耶斯列人亞希暖．他們二人都作了他的妻。
	[kjv]	David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel; and they were also both of them his wives.
	[bbe]	And David had taken Ahinoam of Jezreel, to be his wife; these two were his wives.
25:44	[hb5]	掃羅已將他的女兒米甲、就是大衛的妻、給了迦琳人、拉億的兒子帕提為妻。
	[kjv]	But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, which was of Gallim.
	[bbe]	Now Saul had given his daughter Michal, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish of Gallim.
