列王紀上 21

這事以後，又有一事。耶斯列人拿伯在耶斯列有一個葡萄園，靠近撒馬利亞王亞哈的宮。

zhè shì yǐ hòu ， yòu yǒu yí shì 。 yē sī liè rén ná bó zài yē sī liè yǒu yí gè pú táo yuán ， kào jìn sā mǎ lì yà wáng yà hā de gōng 。

After these things, Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard which was in Jezreel, next to the palace of Ahab king of Samaria.

亞哈對拿伯說：「你將你的葡萄園給我作菜園，因為是靠近我的宮；我就把更好的葡萄園換給你，或是你要銀子，我就按着價值給你。」

yà hā duì ná bó shuō ：「 nǐ jiāng nǐ de pú táo yuán gěi wǒ zuò cài yuán ， yīn wèi shì kào jìn wǒ de gōng ； wǒ jiù bǎ gèng hǎo de pú táo yuán huàn gěi nǐ ， huò shì nǐ yào yín zi ， wǒ jiù àn zhe jià zhí gěi nǐ 。」

Ahab spoke to Naboth, saying, “Give me your vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near my house; and I will give you for it a better vineyard than it. Or, if it seems good to you, I will give you its worth in money.”

拿伯對亞哈說：「我敬畏耶和華，萬不敢將我先人留下的產業給你。」

ná bó duì yà hā shuō ：「 wǒ jìng wèi yē hé huá ， wàn bù gǎn jiāng wǒ xiān rén liú xià de chǎn yè gěi nǐ 。」

Naboth said to Ahab, “May the LORD forbid me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you!”

亞哈因耶斯列人拿伯說「我不敢將我先人留下的產業給你」，就悶悶不樂地回宮，躺在床上，轉臉向內，也不吃飯。

yà hā yīn yē sī liè rén ná bó shuō 「 wǒ bù gǎn jiāng wǒ xiān rén liú xià de chǎn yè gěi nǐ 」， jiù mèn mèn bú lè dì huí gōng ， tǎng zài chuáng shàng ， zhuǎn liǎn xiàng nèi ， yě bù chī fàn 。

Ahab came into his house sullen and angry because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him, for he had said, “I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.” He laid himself down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no bread.

王后耶洗別來問他說：「你為甚麼心裏這樣憂悶，不吃飯呢？」

wáng hòu yē xǐ bié lái wèn tā shuō ：「 nǐ wèi shén me xīn lǐ zhè yàng yōu mèn ， bù chī fàn ne ？」

But Jezebel his wife came to him, and said to him, “Why is your spirit so sad that you eat no bread?”

他回答說：「因我向耶斯列人拿伯說：『你將你的葡萄園給我，我給你價銀，或是你願意，我就把別的葡萄園換給你』；他卻說：『我不將我的葡萄園給你。』」

tā huí dá shuō ：「 yīn wǒ xiàng yē sī liè rén ná bó shuō ：『 nǐ jiāng nǐ de pú táo yuán gěi wǒ ， wǒ gěi nǐ jià yín ， huò shì nǐ yuàn yì ， wǒ jiù bǎ bié de pú táo yuán huàn gěi nǐ 』； tā què shuō ：『 wǒ bù jiāng wǒ de pú táo yuán gěi nǐ 。』」

He said to her, “Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite, and said to him, ‘Give me your vineyard for money; or else, if it pleases you, I will give you another vineyard for it.’ He answered, ‘I will not give you my vineyard.’”

王后耶洗別對亞哈說：「你現在是治理以色列國不是？只管起來，心裏暢暢快快地吃飯，我必將耶斯列人拿伯的葡萄園給你。」

wáng hòu yē xǐ bié duì yà hā shuō ：「 nǐ xiàn zài shì zhì lǐ yǐ sè liè guó bú shì ？ zhǐ guǎn qǐ lái ， xīn lǐ chàng chàng kuài kuài dì chī fàn ， wǒ bì jiāng yē sī liè rén ná bó de pú táo yuán gěi nǐ 。」

Jezebel his wife said to him, “Do you now govern the kingdom of Israel? Arise, and eat bread, and let your heart be merry. I will give you the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.”

於是託亞哈的名寫信，用王的印印上，送給那些與拿伯同城居住的長老貴冑。

yú shì tuō yà hā de míng xiě xìn ， yòng wáng de yìn yìn shàng ， sòng gěi nà xiē yǔ ná bó tóng chéng jū zhù de zhǎng lǎo guì zhòu 。

So she wrote letters in Ahab’s name and sealed them with his seal, and sent the letters to the elders and to the nobles who were in his city, who lived with Naboth.

信上寫着說：「你們當宣告禁食，叫拿伯坐在民間的高位上，

xìn shàng xiě zhe shuō ：「 nǐ men dāng xuān gào jìn shí ， jiào ná bó zuò zài mín jiān de gāo wèi shàng ，

She wrote in the letters, saying, “Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.

又叫兩個匪徒坐在拿伯對面，作見證告他說：『你謗瀆上帝和王了』；隨後就把他拉出去用石頭打死。」

yòu jiào liǎng gè fěi tú zuò zài ná bó duì miàn ， zuò jiàn zhèng gào tā shuō ：『 nǐ bàng dú shén hé wáng le 』； suí hòu jiù bǎ tā lā chū qù yòng shí tou dǎ sǐ 。」

Set two men, wicked fellows, before him, and let them testify against him, saying, ‘You cursed God and the king!’ Then carry him out, and stone him to death.”

那些與拿伯同城居住的長老貴冑得了耶洗別的信，就照信而行，

nà xiē yǔ ná bó tóng chéng jū zhù de zhǎng lǎo guì zhòu dé le yē xǐ bié de xìn ， jiù zhào xìn ér xíng ，

The men of his city, even the elders and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezebel had instructed them in the letters which she had written and sent to them.

宣告禁食，叫拿伯坐在民間的高位上。

xuān gào jìn shí ， jiào ná bó zuò zài mín jiān de gāo wèi shàng 。

They proclaimed a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people.

有兩個匪徒來，坐在拿伯的對面，當着眾民作見證告他說：「拿伯謗瀆上帝和王了！」眾人就把他拉到城外，用石頭打死。

yǒu liǎng gè fěi tú lái ， zuò zài ná bó de duì miàn ， dāng zhe zhòng mín zuò jiàn zhèng gào tā shuō ：「 ná bó bàng dú shén hé wáng le ！」 zhòng rén jiù bǎ tā lā dào chéng wài ， yòng shí tou dǎ sǐ 。

The two men, the wicked fellows, came in and sat before him. The wicked fellows testified against him, even against Naboth, in the presence of the people, saying, “Naboth cursed God and the king!” Then they carried him out of the city and stoned him to death with stones.

於是打發人去見耶洗別，說：「拿伯被石頭打死了。」

yú shì dǎ fā rén qù jiàn yē xǐ bié ， shuō ：「 ná bó bèi shí tou dǎ sǐ le 。」

Then they sent to Jezebel, saying, “Naboth has been stoned and is dead.”

耶洗別聽見拿伯被石頭打死，就對亞哈說：「你起來得耶斯列人拿伯不肯為價銀給你的葡萄園吧！現在他已經死了。」

yē xǐ bié tīng jiàn ná bó bèi shí tou dǎ sǐ ， jiù duì yà hā shuō ：「 nǐ qǐ lái de yē sī liè rén ná bó bù kěn wèi jià yín gěi nǐ de pú táo yuán ba ！ xiàn zài tā yǐ jīng sǐ le 。」

When Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned and was dead, Jezebel said to Ahab, “Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, which he refused to give you for money; for Naboth is not alive, but dead.”

亞哈聽見拿伯死了，就起來，下去要得耶斯列人拿伯的葡萄園。

yà hā tīng jiàn ná bó sǐ le ， jiù qǐ lái ， xià qù yào dé yē sī liè rén ná bó de pú táo yuán 。

When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, Ahab rose up to go down to the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite, to take possession of it.

耶和華的話臨到提斯比人以利亞說：

yē hé huá de huà lín dào tí sī bǐ rén yǐ lì yà shuō ：

The LORD’s word came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

「你起來，去見住撒馬利亞的以色列王亞哈，他下去要得拿伯的葡萄園，現今正在那園裏。

「 nǐ qǐ lái ， qù jiàn zhù sā mǎ lì yà de yǐ sè liè wáng yà hā ， tā xià qù yào dé ná bó de pú táo yuán ， xiàn jīn zhèng zài nà yuán lǐ 。

“Arise, go down to meet Ahab king of Israel, who dwells in Samaria. Behold, he is in the vineyard of Naboth, where he has gone down to take possession of it.

你要對他說：『耶和華如此說：你殺了人，又得他的產業嗎？』又要對他說：『耶和華如此說：狗在何處舔拿伯的血，也必在何處舔你的血。』」

nǐ yào duì tā shuō ：『 yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ： nǐ shā le rén ， yòu dé tā de chǎn yè ma ？』 yòu yào duì tā shuō ：『 yē hé huá rú cǐ shuō ： gǒu zài hé chù tiǎn ná bó de xuè ， yě bì zài hé chù tiǎn nǐ de xuè 。』」

You shall speak to him, saying, ‘The LORD says, “Have you killed and also taken possession?”’ You shall speak to him, saying, ‘The LORD says, “In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, dogs will lick your blood, even yours.”’”

亞哈對以利亞說：「我仇敵啊，你找到我嗎？」他回答說：「我找到你了；因為你賣了自己，行耶和華眼中看為惡的事。

yà hā duì yǐ lì yà shuō ：「 wǒ chóu dí a ， nǐ zhǎo dào wǒ ma ？」 tā huí dá shuō ：「 wǒ zhǎo dào nǐ le ； yīn wèi nǐ mài le zì jǐ ， xíng yē hé huá yǎn zhōng kàn wèi è de shì 。

Ahab said to Elijah, “Have you found me, my enemy?” He answered, “I have found you, because you have sold yourself to do that which is evil in the LORD’s sight.

耶和華說：『我必使災禍臨到你，將你除盡。凡屬你的男丁，無論困住的、自由的，都從以色列中剪除。

yē hé huá shuō ：『 wǒ bì shǐ zāi huò lín dào nǐ ， jiāng nǐ chú jìn 。 fán shǔ nǐ de nán dīng ， wú lùn kùn zhù de 、 zì yóu de ， dōu cóng yǐ sè liè zhōng jiǎn chú 。

Behold, I will bring evil on you, and will utterly sweep you away and will cut off from Ahab everyone who urinates against a wall, and him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel.

我必使你的家像尼八的兒子耶羅波安的家，又像亞希雅的兒子巴沙的家；因為你惹我發怒，又使以色列人陷在罪裏。』

wǒ bì shǐ nǐ de jiā xiàng ní bā de ér zi yē luó bō ān de jiā ， yòu xiàng yà xī yǎ de ér zi bā shā de jiā ； yīn wèi nǐ rě wǒ fā nù ， yòu shǐ yǐ sè liè rén xiàn zài zuì lǐ 。』

I will make your house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation with which you have provoked me to anger, and have made Israel to sin.”

論到耶洗別，耶和華也說：『狗在耶斯列的外郭必吃耶洗別的肉。

lùn dào yē xǐ bié ， yē hé huá yě shuō ：『 gǒu zài yē sī liè de wài guō bì chī yē xǐ bié de ròu 。

The LORD also spoke of Jezebel, saying, “The dogs will eat Jezebel by the rampart of Jezreel.

凡屬亞哈的人，死在城中的必被狗吃，死在田野的必被空中的鳥吃。』」 （

fán shǔ yà hā de rén ， sǐ zài chéng zhōng de bì bèi gǒu chī ， sǐ zài tián yě de bì bèi kōng zhōng de niǎo chī 。』」 （

The dogs will eat he who dies of Ahab in the city; and the birds of the sky will eat he who dies in the field.”

從來沒有像亞哈的，因他自賣，行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，受了王后耶洗別的聳動；

cóng lái méi yǒu xiàng yà hā de ， yīn tā zì mài ， xíng yē hé huá yǎn zhōng kàn wèi è de shì ， shòu le wáng hòu yē xǐ bié de sǒng dòng ；

But there was no one like Ahab, who sold himself to do that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up.

就照耶和華在以色列人面前所趕出的亞摩利人，行了最可憎惡的事，信從偶像。）

jiù zhào yē hé huá zài yǐ sè liè rén miàn qián suǒ gǎn chū de yà mó lì rén ， xíng le zuì kě zēng wù de shì ， xìn cóng ǒu xiàng 。）

He did very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites did, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.

亞哈聽見這話，就撕裂衣服，禁食，身穿麻布，睡臥也穿着麻布，並且緩緩而行。

yà hā tīng jiàn zhè huà ， jiù sī liè yī fú ， jìn shí ， shēn chuān má bù ， shuì wò yě chuān zhe má bù ， bìng qiě huǎn huǎn ér xíng 。

When Ahab heard those words, he tore his clothes, put sackcloth on his body, fasted, lay in sackcloth, and went about despondently.

耶和華的話臨到提斯比人以利亞說：

yē hé huá de huà lín dào tí sī bǐ rén yǐ lì yà shuō ：

The LORD’s word came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying,

「亞哈在我面前這樣自卑，你看見了嗎？因他在我面前自卑，他還在世的時候，我不降這禍；到他兒子的時候，我必降這禍與他的家。」

「 yà hā zài wǒ miàn qián zhè yàng zì bēi ， nǐ kàn jiàn le ma ？ yīn tā zài wǒ miàn qián zì bēi ， tā hái zài shì de shí hòu ， wǒ bú jiàng zhè huò ； dào tā ér zi de shí hòu ， wǒ bì jiàng zhè huò yǔ tā de jiā 。」

“See how Ahab humbles himself before me? Because he humbles himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days; but I will bring the evil on his house in his son’s day.”
