撒母耳记上 24

扫罗追赶非利士人回来，有人告诉他说：「大卫在隐·基底的旷野。」

sǎo luó zhuī gǎn fēi lì shì rén huí lái ， yǒu rén gào sù tā shuō ：「 dà wèi zài yǐn · jī dǐ de kuàng yě 。」

When Saul had returned from following the Philistines, he was told, “Behold, David is in the wilderness of En Gedi.”

扫罗就从以色列人中挑选三千精兵，率领他们往野羊的磐石去，寻索大卫和跟随他的人。

sǎo luó jiù cóng yǐ sè liè rén zhōng tiāo xuǎn sān qiān jīng bīng ， shuài lǐng tā men wǎng yě yáng de pán shí qù ， xún suǒ dà wèi hé gēn suí tā de rén 。

Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men on the rocks of the wild goats.

到了路旁的羊圈，在那里有洞，扫罗进去大解。大卫和跟随他的人正藏在洞里的深处。

dào le lù páng de yáng juàn ， zài nà lǐ yǒu dòng ， sǎo luó jìn qù dà jiě 。 dà wèi hé gēn suí tā de rén zhèng cáng zài dòng lǐ de shēn chù 。

He came to the sheep pens by the way, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself. Now David and his men were staying in the innermost parts of the cave.

跟随的人对大卫说：「耶和华曾应许你说：『我要将你的仇敌交在你手里，你可以任意待他。』如今时候到了！」大卫就起来，悄悄地割下扫罗外袍的衣襟。

gēn suí de rén duì dà wèi shuō ：「 yē hé huá céng yīng xǔ nǐ shuō ：『 wǒ yào jiāng nǐ de chóu dí jiāo zài nǐ shǒu lǐ ， nǐ kě yǐ rèn yì dài tā 。』 rú jīn shí hòu dào le ！」 dà wèi jiù qǐ lái ， qiāo qiāo dì gē xià sǎo luó wài páo de yī jīn 。

David’s men said to him, “Behold, the day of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.’” Then David arose and cut off the skirt of Saul’s robe secretly.

随后大卫心中自责，因为割下扫罗的衣襟；

suí hòu dà wèi xīn zhōng zì zé ， yīn wèi gē xià sǎo luó de yī jīn ；

Afterward, David’s heart struck him because he had cut off Saul’s skirt.

对跟随他的人说：「我的主乃是耶和华的受膏者，我在耶和华面前万不敢伸手害他，因他是耶和华的受膏者。」

duì gēn suí tā de rén shuō ：「 wǒ de zhǔ nǎi shì yē hé huá de shòu gāo zhě ， wǒ zài yē hé huá miàn qián wàn bù gǎn shēn shǒu hài tā ， yīn tā shì yē hé huá de shòu gāo zhě 。」

He said to his men, “The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my lord, the LORD’s anointed, to stretch out my hand against him, since he is the LORD’s anointed.”

大卫用这话拦住跟随他的人，不容他们起来害扫罗。扫罗起来，从洞里出去行路。

dà wèi yòng zhè huà lán zhù gēn suí tā de rén ， bù róng tā men qǐ lái hài sǎo luó 。 sǎo luó qǐ lái ， cóng dòng lǐ chū qù xíng lù 。

So David checked his men with these words, and didn’t allow them to rise against Saul. Saul rose up out of the cave, and went on his way.

随后大卫也起来，从洞里出去，呼叫扫罗说：「我主，我王！」扫罗回头观看，大卫就屈身、脸伏于地下拜。

suí hòu dà wèi yě qǐ lái ， cóng dòng lǐ chū qù ， hū jiào sǎo luó shuō ：「 wǒ zhǔ ， wǒ wáng ！」 sǎo luó huí tóu guān kàn ， dà wèi jiù qū shēn 、 liǎn fú yú dì xià bài 。

David also arose afterward, and went out of the cave and cried after Saul, saying, “My lord the king!” When Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the earth, and showed respect.

大卫对扫罗说：「你为何听信人的谗言，说大卫想要害你呢？

dà wèi duì sǎo luó shuō ：「 nǐ wèi hé tīng xìn rén de chán yán ， shuō dà wèi xiǎng yào hài nǐ ne ？

David said to Saul, “Why do you listen to men’s words, saying, ‘Behold, David seeks to harm you’?

今日你亲眼看见在洞中，耶和华将你交在我手里；有人叫我杀你，我却爱惜你，说：『我不敢伸手害我的主，因为他是耶和华的受膏者。』

jīn rì nǐ qīn yǎn kàn jiàn zài dòng zhōng ， yē hé huá jiāng nǐ jiāo zài wǒ shǒu lǐ ； yǒu rén jiào wǒ shā nǐ ， wǒ què ài xī nǐ ， shuō ：『 wǒ bù gǎn shēn shǒu hài wǒ de zhǔ ， yīn wèi tā shì yē hé huá de shòu gāo zhě 。』

Behold, today your eyes have seen how the LORD had delivered you today into my hand in the cave. Some urged me to kill you, but I spared you. I said, ‘I will not stretch out my hand against my lord, for he is the LORD’s anointed.’

我父啊，看看你外袍的衣襟在我手中。我割下你的衣襟，没有杀你；你由此可以知道我没有恶意叛逆你。你虽然猎取我的命，我却没有得罪你。

wǒ fù a ， kàn kàn nǐ wài páo de yī jīn zài wǒ shǒu zhōng 。 wǒ gē xià nǐ de yī jīn ， méi yǒu shā nǐ ； nǐ yóu cǐ kě yǐ zhī dào wǒ méi yǒu è yì pàn nì nǐ 。 nǐ suī rán liè qǔ wǒ de mìng ， wǒ què méi yǒu dé zuì nǐ 。

Moreover, my father, behold, yes, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for in that I cut off the skirt of your robe and didn’t kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor disobedience in my hand. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt for my life to take it.

愿耶和华在你我中间判断是非，在你身上为我伸冤，我却不亲手加害于你。

yuàn yē hé huá zài nǐ wǒ zhōng jiān pàn duàn shì fēi ， zài nǐ shēn shàng wèi wǒ shēn yuān ， wǒ què bù qīn shǒu jiā hài yú nǐ 。

May the LORD judge between me and you, and may the LORD avenge me of you; but my hand will not be on you.

古人有句俗语说：『恶事出于恶人。』我却不亲手加害于你。

gǔ rén yǒu jù sú yǔ shuō ：『 è shì chū yú è rén 。』 wǒ què bù qīn shǒu jiā hài yú nǐ 。

As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness;’ but my hand will not be on you.

以色列王出来要寻找谁呢？追赶谁呢？不过追赶一条死狗，一个虼蚤就是了。

yǐ sè liè wáng chū lái yào xún zhǎo shuí ne ？ zhuī gǎn shuí ne ？ bú guò zhuī gǎn yì tiáo sǐ gǒu ， yí gè gè zǎo jiù shì le 。

Against whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom do you pursue? A dead dog? A flea?

愿耶和华在你我中间施行审判，断定是非，并且鉴察，为我伸冤，救我脱离你的手。」

yuàn yē hé huá zài nǐ wǒ zhōng jiān shī xíng shěn pàn ， duàn dìng shì fēi ， bìng qiě jiàn chá ， wèi wǒ shēn yuān ， jiù wǒ tuō lí nǐ de shǒu 。」

May the LORD therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and you, and see, and plead my cause, and deliver me out of your hand.”

大卫向扫罗说完这话，扫罗说：「我儿大卫，这是你的声音吗？」就放声大哭，

dà wèi xiàng sǎo luó shuō wán zhè huà ， sǎo luó shuō ：「 wǒ ér dà wèi ， zhè shì nǐ de shēng yīn ma ？」 jiù fàng shēng dà kū ，

It came to pass, when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, “Is that your voice, my son David?” Saul lifted up his voice and wept.

对大卫说：「你比我公义；因为你以善待我，我却以恶待你。

duì dà wèi shuō ：「 nǐ bǐ wǒ gōng yì ； yīn wèi nǐ yǐ shàn dài wǒ ， wǒ què yǐ è dài nǐ 。

He said to David, “You are more righteous than I; for you have done good to me, whereas I have done evil to you.

你今日显明是以善待我；因为耶和华将我交在你手里，你却没有杀我。

nǐ jīn rì xiǎn míng shì yǐ shàn dài wǒ ； yīn wèi yē hé huá jiāng wǒ jiāo zài nǐ shǒu lǐ ， nǐ què méi yǒu shā wǒ 。

You have declared today how you have dealt well with me, because when the LORD had delivered me up into your hand, you didn’t kill me.

人若遇见仇敌，岂肯放他平安无事地去呢？愿耶和华因你今日向我所行的，以善报你。

rén ruò yù jiàn chóu dí ， qǐ kěn fàng tā píng ān wú shì dì qù ne ？ yuàn yē hé huá yīn nǐ jīn rì xiàng wǒ suǒ xíng de ， yǐ shàn bào nǐ 。

For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away unharmed? Therefore may the LORD reward you good for that which you have done to me today.

我也知道你必要作王，以色列的国必坚立在你手里。

wǒ yě zhī dào nǐ bì yào zuò wáng ， yǐ sè liè de guó bì jiān lì zài nǐ shǒu lǐ 。

Now, behold, I know that you will surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in your hand.

现在你要指着耶和华向我起誓，不剪除我的后裔，在我父家不灭没我的名。」

xiàn zài nǐ yào zhǐ zhe yē hé huá xiàng wǒ qǐ shì ， bù jiǎn chú wǒ de hòu yì ， zài wǒ fù jiā bú miè méi wǒ de míng 。」

Swear now therefore to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my offspring after me, and that you will not destroy my name out of my father’s house.”

于是大卫向扫罗起誓，扫罗就回家去；大卫和跟随他的人上山寨去了。

yú shì dà wèi xiàng sǎo luó qǐ shì ， sǎo luó jiù huí jiā qù ； dà wèi hé gēn suí tā de rén shàng shān zhài qù le 。

David swore to Saul. Saul went home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.
