# 撒下-2Sa 21 ## 撒下21:1 大卫年间有饥荒,一连三年,大卫就求问耶和华。耶和华说:“这饥荒是因扫罗和他流人血之家,杀死基遍人。” 2Sa 21:1 “Now there was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year. And David sought the face of the LORD. And the LORD said, “There is bloodguilt on Saul and on his house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.” ## 撒下21:2 原来这基遍人不是以色列人,乃是亚摩利人中所剩的;以色列人曾向他们起誓,不杀灭他们。扫罗却为以色列人和犹大人发热心,想要杀灭他们。大卫王召了他们来。 2Sa 21:2 “So the king called the Gibeonites and spoke to them. Now the Gibeonites were not of the people of Israel but of the remnant of the Amorites. Although the people of Israel had sworn to spare them, Saul had sought to strike them down in his zeal for the people of Israel and Judah.” ## 撒下21:3 问他们说:“我当为你们怎样行呢?可用什么赎这罪,使你们为耶和华的产业祝福呢?” 2Sa 21:3 “And David said to the Gibeonites, “What shall I do for you? And how shall I make atonement, that you may bless the heritage of the LORD?” ## 撒下21:4 基遍人回答说:“我们和扫罗与他家的事并不关乎金银,也不要因我们的缘故杀一个以色列人。”大卫说:“你们怎样说,我就为你们怎样行。” 2Sa 21:4 “The Gibeonites said to him, “It is not a matter of silver or gold between us and Saul or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.” And he said, “What do you say that I shall do for you?” ## 撒下21:5 他们对王说:“那从前谋害我们,要灭我们,使我们不得再住以色列境内的人, 2Sa 21:5 “They said to the king, “The man who consumed us and planned to destroy us, so that we should have no place in all the territory of Israel,” ## 撒下21:6 现在愿将他的子孙七人交给我们,我们好在耶和华面前,将他们悬挂在耶和华拣选扫罗的基比亚。”王说:“我必交给你们。” 2Sa 21:6 “let seven of his sons be given to us, so that we may hang them before the LORD at Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the LORD.” And the king said, “I will give them.” ## 撒下21:7 王因为曾与扫罗的儿子约拿单指着耶和华起誓结盟,就爱惜扫罗的孙子,约拿单的儿子米非波设,不交出来; 2Sa 21:7 “But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Saul’s son Jonathan, because of the oath of the LORD that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.” ## 撒下21:8 却把爱雅的女儿利斯巴给扫罗所生的两个儿子亚摩尼、米非波设,和扫罗女儿米甲的姐姐给米何拉人巴西莱儿子亚得列所生的五个儿子, 2Sa 21:8 “The king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite;” ## 撒下21:9 交在基遍人的手里。基遍人就把他们在耶和华面前,悬挂在山上,这七人就一同死亡。被杀的时候,正是收割的日子,就是动手割大麦的时候。 2Sa 21:9 “and he gave them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them on the mountain before the LORD, and the seven of them perished together. They were put to death in the first days of harvest, at the beginning of barley harvest.” ## 撒下21:10 爱雅的女儿利斯巴用麻布在磐石上搭棚,从动手收割的时候,直到天降雨在尸身上的时候。日间不容空中的雀鸟落在尸身上,夜间不让田野的走兽前来糟践。 2Sa 21:10 Then Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until rain fell upon them from the heavens. And she did not allow the birds of the air to come upon them by day, or the beasts of the field by night.” ## 撒下21:11 有人将扫罗的妃嫔爱雅女儿利斯巴所行的这事告诉大卫。 2Sa 21:11 “When David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done,” ## 撒下21:12 大卫就去,从基列雅比人那里将扫罗和他儿子约拿单的骸骨搬了来;是因非利士人从前在基利波杀扫罗,将尸身悬挂在伯珊的街市上,基列雅比人把尸身偷了去。 2Sa 21:12 “David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the public square of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, on the day the Philistines killed Saul on Gilboa.” ## 撒下21:13 大卫将扫罗和他儿子约拿单的骸骨从那里搬了来,又收殓被悬挂七人的骸骨, 2Sa 21:13 And he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan; and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged. ## 撒下21:14 将扫罗和他儿子约拿单的骸骨葬在便雅悯的洗拉,在扫罗父亲基士的坟墓里。众人行了王所吩咐的。此后神垂听国民所求的。 2Sa 21:14 “And they buried the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan in the land of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father. And they did all that the king commanded. And after that God responded to the plea for the land.” ## 撒下21:15 非利士人与以色列人打仗,大卫带领仆人下去,与非利士人接战,大卫就疲乏了。 2Sa 21:15 “There was war again between the Philistines and Israel, and David went down together with his servants, and they fought against the Philistines. And David grew weary.” ## 撒下21:16 伟人的一个儿子以实比诺要杀大卫,他的铜枪重三百舍客勒,又佩着新刀。 2Sa 21:16 “And Ishbi-benob, one of the descendants of the giants, whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of bronze, and who was armed with a new sword, thought to kill David.” ## 撒下21:17 但洗鲁雅的儿子亚比筛帮助大卫,攻打非利士人,将他杀死。当日跟随大卫的人向大卫起誓说:“以后你不可再与我们一同出战,恐怕熄灭以色列的灯。” 2Sa 21:17 “But Abishai the son of Zeruiah came to his aid and attacked the Philistine and killed him. Then David’s men swore to him, “You shall no longer go out with us to battle, lest you quench the lamp of Israel.” ## 撒下21:18 后来,以色列人在歌伯与非利士人打仗,户沙人西比该杀了伟人的一个儿子撒弗。 2Sa 21:18 “After this there was again war with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Saph, who was one of the descendants of the giants.” ## 撒下21:19 又在歌伯与非利士人打仗,伯利恒人雅雷俄珥金的儿子伊勒哈难杀了迦特人歌利亚。这人的枪杆粗如织布的机轴。 2Sa 21:19 “And there was again war with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim, the Bethlehemite, struck down Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.” ## 撒下21:20 又在迦特打仗,那里有一个身量高大的人,手脚都是六指,共有二十四个指头;他也是伟人的儿子。 2Sa 21:20 “And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number, and he also was descended from the giants.” ## 撒下21:21 这人向以色列人骂阵,大卫的哥哥示米亚的儿子约拿单就杀了他。 2Sa 21:21 “And when he taunted Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, struck him down.” ## 撒下21:22 这四个人是迦特伟人的儿子,都死在大卫和他仆人的手下。 2Sa 21:22 “These four were descended from the giants in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.”
