撒母耳記上 1 Samuel

3:1	[hb5]	童子撒母耳在以利面前事奉耶和華。當那些日子、耶和華的言語稀少、不常有默示。
	[kjv]	And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision.
	[bbe]	Now the young Samuel was the servant of the Lord before Eli. In those days the Lord kept his word secret from men; there was no open vision.
3:2	[hb5]	一日以利睡臥在自己的地方．他眼目昏花、看不分明．
	[kjv]	And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;
	[bbe]	And at that time, when Eli was resting in his place, (now his eyes were becoming clouded so that he was not able to see,)
3:3	[hb5]	神的燈在　神耶和華殿內約櫃那裡、還沒有熄滅、撒母耳已經睡了。
	[kjv]	And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was, and Samuel was laid down to sleep;
	[bbe]	And the light of God was still burning, while Samuel was sleeping in the Temple of the Lord where the ark of God was,
3:4	[hb5]	耶和華呼喚撒母耳．撒母耳說、我在這裡。
	[kjv]	That the LORD called Samuel: and he answered, Here am I.
	[bbe]	The voice of the Lord said Samuel's name; and he said, Here am I.
3:5	[hb5]	就跑到以利那裡說、你呼喚我、我在這裡．以利回答說、我沒有呼喚你、你去睡罷．他就去睡了。
	[kjv]	And he ran unto Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I called not; lie down again. And he went and lay down.
	[bbe]	And running to Eli he said, Here am I, for you said my name. And Eli said, I did not say your name; go to your rest again. So he went back to his bed.
3:6	[hb5]	耶和華又呼喚撒母耳．撒母耳起來、到以利那裡說、你呼喚我、我在這裡．以利回答說、我的兒、我沒有呼喚你、你去睡罷。
	[kjv]	And the LORD called yet again, Samuel. And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And he answered, I called not, my son; lie down again.
	[bbe]	And again the Lord said, Samuel. And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. But he said in answer, I said nothing, my son; go to your rest again.
3:7	[hb5]	那時撒母耳還未認識耶和華、也未得耶和華的默示。
	[kjv]	Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him.
	[bbe]	Now at that time Samuel had no knowledge of the Lord, and the revelation of the word of the Lord had not come to him.
3:8	[hb5]	耶和華第三次呼喚撒母耳．撒母耳起來、到以利那裡說、你又呼喚我、我在這裡．以利纔明白是耶和華呼喚童子。
	[kjv]	And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou didst call me. And Eli perceived that the LORD had called the child.
	[bbe]	And for the third time the Lord said Samuel's name. And he got up and went to Eli and said, Here am I; for you certainly said my name. Then it was clear to Eli that the voice which had said the child's name was the Lord's.
3:9	[hb5]	因此、以利對撒母耳說、你仍去睡罷．若再呼喚你、你就說、耶和華阿、請說、僕人敬聽．撒母耳就去仍睡在原處。
	[kjv]	Therefore Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD; for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
	[bbe]	So Eli said to Samuel, Go back: and if the voice comes again, let your answer be, Say on, Lord; for the ears of your servant are open. So Samuel went back to his bed.
3:10	[hb5]	耶和華又來站著、像前三次呼喚說、撒母耳阿、撒母耳阿．撒母耳回答說、請說、僕人敬聽。
	[kjv]	And the LORD came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.
	[bbe]	Then the Lord came and said as before, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel made answer, Say on, Lord; for the ears of your servant are open.
3:11	[hb5]	耶和華對撒母耳說、我在以色列中必行一件事、叫聽見的人都必耳鳴。
	[kjv]	And the LORD said to Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle.
	[bbe]	And the Lord said to Samuel, See, I will do a thing in Israel at which the ears of everyone hearing of it will be burning.
3:12	[hb5]	我指著以利家所說的話、到了時候我必始終應驗在以利身上。
	[kjv]	In that day I will perform against Eli all things which I have spoken concerning his house: when I begin, I will also make an end.
	[bbe]	In that day I will do to Eli everything which I have said about his family, from first to last.
3:13	[hb5]	我曾告訴他必永遠降罰與他的家、因他知道兒子作孽、自招咒詛、卻不禁止他們。
	[kjv]	For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.
	[bbe]	And you are to say to him that I will send punishment on his family for ever, for the sin which he had knowledge of; because his sons have been cursing God and he had no control over them.
3:14	[hb5]	所以我向以利家起誓說、以利家的罪孽、雖獻祭奉禮物、永不能得贖去。
	[kjv]	And therefore I have sworn unto the house of Eli, that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be purged with sacrifice nor offering for ever.
	[bbe]	So I have made an oath to the family of Eli that no offering of meat or of meal which they may make will ever take away the sin of his family.
3:15	[hb5]	撒母耳睡到天亮、就開了耶和華的殿門、不敢將默示告訴以利。
	[kjv]	And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision.
	[bbe]	And Samuel kept where he was, not moving till the time came for opening the doors of the house of God in the morning. And fear kept him from giving Eli an account of his vision.
3:16	[hb5]	以利呼喚撒母耳說、我兒撒母耳阿、撒母耳回答說、我在這裡。
	[kjv]	Then Eli called Samuel, and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here am I.
	[bbe]	Then Eli said, Samuel, my son. And Samuel answering said, Here am I.
3:17	[hb5]	以利說、耶和華對你說甚麼、你不要向我隱瞞．你若將　神對你所說的隱瞞一句、願他重重的降罰與你。
	[kjv]	And he said, What is the thing that the LORD hath said unto thee? I pray thee hide it not from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou hide any thing from me of all the things that he said unto thee.
	[bbe]	And he said, What did the Lord say to you? Do not keep it from me: may God's punishment be on you if you keep from me anything he said to you.
3:18	[hb5]	撒母耳就把一切話都告訴了以利、並沒有隱瞞．以利說、這是出於耶和華、願他憑自己的意旨而行。
	[kjv]	And Samuel told him every whit, and hid nothing from him. And he said, It is the LORD: let him do what seemeth him good.
	[bbe]	Then Samuel gave him an account of everything, keeping nothing back. And he said, It is the Lord; let him do what seems good to him.
3:19	[hb5]	撒母耳長大了、耶和華與他同在、使他所說的話、一句都不落空。
	[kjv]	And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground.
	[bbe]	And Samuel became older, and the Lord was with him and let not one of his words be without effect.
3:20	[hb5]	從但到別是巴所有的以色列人、都知道耶和華立撒母耳為先知。
	[kjv]	And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the LORD.
	[bbe]	And it was clear to all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba that Samuel had been made a prophet of the Lord.
3:21	[hb5]	耶和華又在示羅顯現、因為耶和華將自己的話默示撒母耳、撒母耳就把這話傳遍以色列地。
	[kjv]	And the LORD appeared again in Shiloh: for the LORD revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.
	[bbe]	And the Lord was seen again in Shiloh; for the Lord gave to Samuel in Shiloh the revelation of his word.
