撒母耳記上

第22章

1 大闢離彼、遁於亞土蘭穴、其兄弟與其父全家聞此、咸來相就。

2 凡困迫者、逋負者、不快於心者、羣歸之、約四百人、大闢爲其長。

3 離彼往摩押之米斯巴、請於摩押王曰、容我父母與爾偕居、迨我知上帝待我如何。

4 遂導父母覲摩押王、大闢在衞所時、父母與摩押王居。

5 先知伽得告大闢曰、毋居衞所、宜往猶大地。大闢遂往至哈烈林。

6 掃羅居其庇亞之崇邱、垂絲柳下、手執其戟、臣僕旁侍、聞大闢與從者、爲人所緝知、

7 謂臣僕曰、便雅憫族宜聽我言、耶西之子、豈能以田畝葡萄園賜爾衆、以爾儕爲千夫長、百夫長乎。

8 爾曹乃謀攻我、今日我子與我臣僕耶西之子結約、使伏以害我、無人以告、無人爲我懷憂。

9 掃羅臣僕中、有以東人多益、對曰、我觀耶西之子至挪伯、見亞希突子亞希米勒。

10 亞希米勒爲之問耶和華、且供以食、又賜以非利士人坷利亞刃。

11 王召祭司亞希突子亞希米勒、與其父家、旣挪伯諸祭司者、咸至王前。

12 掃羅曰、亞希突子宜聽我言。對曰、我主、吾在此。

13 掃羅曰、爾與耶西之子謀攻我、汝贈以刃、供以餅、爲之諮詢上帝、使其今曰伏以攻我、曷故。

14 亞希米勒對曰、大闢乃王之壻、尊於爾家、遵命而行、爾臣僕中、孰忠如之。

15 我爲之諮詢上帝、豈始於此乎。王斷勿歸罪於僕、及我父之家、蓋此事、無論鉅細、我俱不知。

16 王曰、亞希米勒、爾與父家、必致死亡。

17 王諭侍衞曰、耶和華之祭司、輔助大闢、知其逃遁、而不以告、故當殺之。王僕不敢遵命。

18 王諭多益曰、汝擊祭司。以東人多益遂擊祭司、當日殺衣枲公服者八十五人。

19 祭司之邑挪伯、男女、童稚、嬰孩、牛羊及驢、皆擊以刃。

20 亞希突孫、亞希米勒子亞庇亞塔遁、往從大闢、

21 以掃羅殺耶和華祭司之事告。

22 大闢曰、當日我見以東人多益在側、我知其必告掃羅、今害爾父全家者、實縁於我。

23 有欲害爾命者、亦欲害我命、爾與我偕、可保無虞、爾毋畏焉。

1 Samuel

Chapter 22

1 DAVID therefore departed thence, and escaped to the cave of Arlam; and when his brothers and all his father's household heard it, they went down there to him.

2 And there gathered to him every man who was in distress and every man who was in debt and every man who was discontented, and he became chief over them; and there were with him about four hundred men.

3 And David went thence to Mizpeh of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and my mother dwell with you, till I know what God will do with me.

4 And he left them with the king of Moab; and they dwelt with him all the time that David was in Mizpeh.

5 And the prophet Gad said to David, Do not abide in Mizpeh; depart and go into the land of Judah. Then David departed and came into the forest of Hiziuth.

6 And when Saul heard that David was located, and the men who were with him (now Saul was staying in Gibeah under the almond tree in Ramtha, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him);

7 Then Saul said to his servants who stood about him, Hear now, you Benjamites, will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all commanders of thousands and captains of hundreds;

8 And have all of you conspired against me, so that there is none to tell me about the covenant of my son with the son of Jesse; and is there none that discloses to me that my son has made a league with the son of Jesse, and is there none of you who is sorry for me, or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servants against me to lie in wait as at this day?

9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw David when he came to Noh, to Ahimeleck, the son of Ahitub the priest.

10 And he inquired of God for him and gave him weapons and provisions and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.

11 Then the king summoned Ahimeleck the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Noh; and all of them came to the king.

12 And Saul said, Hear now, I beseech you, son of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.

13 Then Saul said to him, Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me to lie in wait as at this day?

14 And Ahimeleck the priest answered the king and said, And who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and heeds your commands and is honored in your house?

15 Did I begin today to inquire of God for him? Far be it from me; let not the king impute anything to his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for your servant knew nothing of all this matter, less or more.

16 And the king said, You shall surely die, Ahimeleck, you and all your father's house.

17 Then the king said to the guards who stood about him. Turn, and slay the priests of God; because their hand also is with David and because they knew that he fled, and did not reveal it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hands and harm the priests of God.

18 And the king said to Doeg, Turn and fall upon the priests. And Doeg fell upon the priests and slew on that day eighty-five persons who wore the linen ephod.

19 And Noh, the city of the priests, smote he with the edge of the sword, both men and women, young men and children and oxen and asses and sheep, with the edge of the sword.

20 But one of the sons of Ahimeleck, the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.

21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain the priests of God.

22 And David said to Abiathar, I knew it that day when Doeg the Edomite was there that he would surely tell Saul; I myself am guilty for the death of all the persons of your father's house.

23 Abide with me; fear not; for he that seeks my life seeks your life also, but with me you shall be protected.

6 掃羅居其庇亞之崇邱、垂絲柳下、手執其戟、臣僕旁侍、聞大闢與從者、爲人所緝知、

6 And when Saul heard that David was located, and the men who were with him (now Saul was staying in Gibeah under the almond tree in Ramtha, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him);

7 謂臣僕曰、便雅憫族宜聽我言、耶西之子、豈能以田畝葡萄園賜爾衆、以爾儕爲千夫長、百夫長乎。

7 Then Saul said to his servants who stood about him, Hear now, you Benjamites, will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all commanders of thousands and captains of hundreds;

8 爾曹乃謀攻我、今日我子與我臣僕耶西之子結約、使伏以害我、無人以告、無人爲我懷憂。

8 And have all of you conspired against me, so that there is none to tell me about the covenant of my son with the son of Jesse; and is there none that discloses to me that my son has made a league with the son of Jesse, and is there none of you who is sorry for me, or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servants against me to lie in wait as at this day?

9 掃羅臣僕中、有以東人多益、對曰、我觀耶西之子至挪伯、見亞希突子亞希米勒。

9 Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, I saw David when he came to Noh, to Ahimeleck, the son of Ahitub the priest.

10 亞希米勒爲之問耶和華、且供以食、又賜以非利士人坷利亞刃。

10 And he inquired of God for him and gave him weapons and provisions and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine.

11 王召祭司亞希突子亞希米勒、與其父家、旣挪伯諸祭司者、咸至王前。

11 Then the king summoned Ahimeleck the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests that were in Noh; and all of them came to the king.

12 掃羅曰、亞希突子宜聽我言。對曰、我主、吾在此。

12 And Saul said, Hear now, I beseech you, son of Ahitub. And he answered, Here I am, my lord.

13 掃羅曰、爾與耶西之子謀攻我、汝贈以刃、供以餅、爲之諮詢上帝、使其今曰伏以攻我、曷故。

13 Then Saul said to him, Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me to lie in wait as at this day?

14 亞希米勒對曰、大闢乃王之壻、尊於爾家、遵命而行、爾臣僕中、孰忠如之。

14 And Ahimeleck the priest answered the king and said, And who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and heeds your commands and is honored in your house?

15 我爲之諮詢上帝、豈始於此乎。王斷勿歸罪於僕、及我父之家、蓋此事、無論鉅細、我俱不知。

15 Did I begin today to inquire of God for him? Far be it from me; let not the king impute anything to his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for your servant knew nothing of all this matter, less or more.

16 王曰、亞希米勒、爾與父家、必致死亡。

16 And the king said, You shall surely die, Ahimeleck, you and all your father's house.

17 王諭侍衞曰、耶和華之祭司、輔助大闢、知其逃遁、而不以告、故當殺之。王僕不敢遵命。

17 Then the king said to the guards who stood about him. Turn, and slay the priests of God; because their hand also is with David and because they knew that he fled, and did not reveal it to me. But the servants of the king would not put forth their hands and harm the priests of God.

20 亞希突孫、亞希米勒子亞庇亞塔遁、往從大闢、

20 But one of the sons of Ahimeleck, the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.

21 以掃羅殺耶和華祭司之事告。

21 And Abiathar told David that Saul had slain the priests of God.

22 大闢曰、當日我見以東人多益在側、我知其必告掃羅、今害爾父全家者、實縁於我。

22 And David said to Abiathar, I knew it that day when Doeg the Edomite was there that he would surely tell Saul; I myself am guilty for the death of all the persons of your father's house.

23 有欲害爾命者、亦欲害我命、爾與我偕、可保無虞、爾毋畏焉。
