撒母耳记上 1 Samuel

8:1	[hgb]	撒母耳年纪老迈，就立他儿子作以色列的士师。
	[kjv]	And it came to pass, when Samuel was old, that he made his sons judges over Israel.
8:2	[hgb]	长子名叫约珥，次子名叫亚比亚。他们在别是巴作士师。
	[kjv]	Now the name of his firstborn was Joel; and the name of his second, Abiah: they were judges in Beersheba.
8:3	[hgb]	他儿子不行他的道，贪图财利，收受贿赂，屈枉正直。
	[kjv]	And his sons walked not in his ways, but turned aside after lucre, and took bribes, and perverted judgment.
8:4	[hgb]	以色列的长老都聚集，来到拉玛见撒母耳，
	[kjv]	Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,
8:5	[hgb]	对他说，你年纪老迈了，你儿子不行你的道。现在求你为我们立一个王治理我们，像列国一样。
	[kjv]	And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
8:6	[hgb]	撒母耳不喜悦他们说立一个王治理我们，他就祷告耶和华。
	[kjv]	But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
8:7	[hgb]	耶和华对撒母耳说，百姓向你说的一切话，你只管依从。因为他们不是厌弃你，乃是厌弃我，不要我作他们的王。
	[kjv]	And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
8:8	[hgb]	自从我领他们出埃及到如今，他们常常离弃我，事奉别神。现在他们向你所行的，是照他们素来所行的。
	[kjv]	According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
8:9	[hgb]	故此你要依从他们的话，只是当警戒他们，告诉他们将来那王怎样管辖他们。
	[kjv]	Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
8:10	[hgb]	撒母耳将耶和华的话都传给求他立王的百姓，说，
	[kjv]	And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
8:11	[hgb]	管辖你们的王必这样行，他必派你们的儿子为他赶车，跟马，奔走在车前。
	[kjv]	And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
8:12	[hgb]	又派他们作千夫长，五十夫长，为他耕种田地，收割庄稼，打造军器和车上的器械。
	[kjv]	And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
8:13	[hgb]	必取你们的女儿为他制造香膏，作饭烤饼。
	[kjv]	And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
8:14	[hgb]	也必取你们最好的田地，葡萄园，橄榄园赐给他的臣仆。
	[kjv]	And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
8:15	[hgb]	你们的粮食和葡萄园所出的，他必取十分之一给他的太监和臣仆。
	[kjv]	And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
8:16	[hgb]	又必取你们的仆人婢女，健壮的少年人和你们的驴，供他的差役。
	[kjv]	And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
8:17	[hgb]	你们的羊群，他必取十分之一，你们也必作他的仆人。
	[kjv]	He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.
8:18	[hgb]	那时你们必因所选的王哀求耶和华，耶和华却不应允你们。
	[kjv]	And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
8:19	[hgb]	百姓竟不肯听撒母耳的话，说，不然。我们定要一个王治理我们，
	[kjv]	Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
8:20	[hgb]	使我们像列国一样，有王治理我们，统领我们，为我们争战。
	[kjv]	That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
8:21	[hgb]	撒母耳听见百姓这一切话，就将这话陈明在耶和华面前。
	[kjv]	And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
8:22	[hgb]	耶和华对撒母耳说，你只管依从他们的话，为他们立王。撒母耳对以色列人说，你们各归各城去吧。
	[kjv]	And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and make them a king. And Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go ye every man unto his city.
