# 王上-1Ki 2 ## 王上2:1 大卫的死期临近了，就嘱咐他儿子所罗门说： 1Ki 2:1 “When David’s time to die drew near, he commanded Solomon his son, saying,” ## 王上2:2 “我现在要走世人必走的路，所以你当刚强作大丈夫， 1Ki 2:2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth. Be strong, and show yourself a man,” ## 王上2:3 遵守耶和华你神所吩咐的，照着摩西律法上所写的，行主的道，谨守他的律例、诫命、典章、法度；这样，你无论作什么事，不拘往何处去，尽都亨通。 1Ki 2:3 “and keep the charge of the LORD your God, walking in his ways and keeping his statutes, his commandments, his rules, and his testimonies, as it is written in the Law of Moses, that you may prosper in all that you do and wherever you turn,” ## 王上2:4 耶和华必成就向我所应许的话说：‘你的子孙若谨慎自己的行为，尽心尽意诚诚实实地行在我面前，就不断人坐以色列的国位。’ 1Ki 2:4 “that the LORD may establish his word that he spoke concerning me, saying, ‘If your sons pay close attention to their way, to walk before me in faithfulness with all their heart and with all their soul, you shall not lack a man on the throne of Israel.’” ## 王上2:5 你知道洗鲁雅的儿子约押向我所行的，就是杀了以色列的两个元帅；尼珥的儿子押尼珥和益帖的儿子亚玛撒，他在太平之时流这二人的血，如在争战之时一样，将这血染了腰间束的带和脚上穿的鞋。 1Ki 2:5 “Moreover, you also know what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, how he dealt with the two commanders of the armies of Israel, Abner the son of Ner, and Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed, avenging in time of peace for blood that had been shed in war, and putting the blood of war on the belt around his waist and on the sandals on his feet.” ## 王上2:6 所以你要照你的智慧行，不容他白头安然下阴间。 1Ki 2:6 “Act therefore according to your wisdom, but do not let his gray head go down to Sheol in peace.” ## 王上2:7 你当恩待基列人巴西莱的众子，使他们常与你同席吃饭。因为我躲避你哥哥押沙龙的时候，他们拿食物来迎接我。 1Ki 2:7 “But deal loyally with the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be among those who eat at your table, for with such loyalty they met me when I fled from Absalom your brother.” ## 王上2:8 在你这里有巴户琳的便雅悯人，基拉的儿子示每，我往玛哈念去的那日，他用狠毒的言语咒骂我，后来却下约但河迎接我，我就指着耶和华向他起誓说：‘我必不用刀杀你。’ 1Ki 2:8 “And there is also with you Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjaminite from Bahurim, who cursed me with a grievous curse on the day when I went to Mahanaim. But when he came down to meet me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the LORD, saying, ‘I will not put you to death with the sword.’” ## 王上2:9 现在你不要以他为无罪，你是聪明人，必知道怎样待他，使他白头见杀，流血下到阴间。” 1Ki 2:9 “Now therefore do not hold him guiltless, for you are a wise man. You will know what you ought to do to him, and you shall bring his gray head down with blood to Sheol.” ## 王上2:10 大卫与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城。 1Ki 2:10 Then David slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of David. ## 王上2:11 大卫作以色列王四十年：在希伯仑作王七年，在耶路撒冷作王三十三年。 1Ki 2:11 And the time that David reigned over Israel was forty years. He reigned seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem. ## 王上2:12 所罗门坐他父亲大卫的位，他的国甚是坚固。 1Ki 2:12 “So Solomon sat on the throne of David his father, and his kingdom was firmly established.” ## 王上2:13 哈及的儿子亚多尼雅去见所罗门的母亲拔示巴。拔示巴问他说：“你来是为平安吗？”回答说：“是为平安。” 1Ki 2:13 “Then Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. And she said, “Do you come peacefully?” He said, “Peacefully.” ## 王上2:14 又说：“我有话对你说。”拔示巴说：“你说吧！” 1Ki 2:14 “Then he said, “I have something to say to you.” She said, “Speak.” ## 王上2:15 亚多尼雅说：“你知道国原是归我的，以色列众人也都仰望我作王；不料，国反归了我兄弟，因他得国是出乎耶和华。 1Ki 2:15 “He said, “You know that the kingdom was mine, and that all Israel fully expected me to reign. However, the kingdom has turned about and become my brother’s, for it was his from the LORD.” ## 王上2:16 现在我有一件事求你，望你不要推辞。”拔示巴说：“你说吧！” 1Ki 2:16 “And now I have one request to make of you; do not refuse me.” She said to him, “Speak.” ## 王上2:17 他说：“求你请所罗门王，将书念的女子亚比煞赐我为妻，因他必不推辞你。” 1Ki 2:17 “And he said, “Please ask King Solomon—he will not refuse you—to give me Abishag the Shunammite as my wife.” ## 王上2:18 拔示巴说：“好！我必为你对王提说。” 1Ki 2:18 “Bathsheba said, “Very well; I will speak for you to the king.” ## 王上2:19 于是拔示巴去见所罗门王，要为亚多尼雅提说。王起来迎接，向她下拜，就坐在位上，吩咐人为王母设一座位，她便坐在王的右边。 1Ki 2:19 “So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him on behalf of Adonijah. And the king rose to meet her and bowed down to her. Then he sat on his throne and had a seat brought for the king’s mother, and she sat on his right.” ## 王上2:20 拔示巴说：“我有一件小事求你，望你不要推辞。”王说：“请母亲说，我必不推辞。” 1Ki 2:20 “Then she said, “I have one small request to make of you; do not refuse me.” And the king said to her, “Make your request, my mother, for I will not refuse you.” ## 王上2:21 拔示巴说：“求你将书念的女子亚比煞赐给你哥哥亚多尼雅为妻。” 1Ki 2:21 “She said, “Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother as his wife.” ## 王上2:22 所罗门王对他母亲说：“为何单替他求书念的女子亚比煞呢？也可以为他求国吧！他是我的哥哥，他有祭司亚比亚他和洗鲁雅的儿子约押为辅佐。” 1Ki 2:22 “King Solomon answered his mother, “And why do you ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also, for he is my older brother, and on his side are Abiathar the priest and Joab the son of Zeruiah.” ## 王上2:23 所罗门王就指着耶和华起誓，说：“亚多尼雅这话是自己送命，不然，愿神重重地降罚与我！ 1Ki 2:23 “Then King Solomon swore by the LORD, saying, “God do so to me and more also if this word does not cost Adonijah his life!” ## 王上2:24 耶和华坚立我，使我坐在父亲大卫的位上，照着所应许的话为我建立家室，现在我指着永生的耶和华起誓，亚多尼雅今日必被治死。” 1Ki 2:24 “Now therefore as the LORD lives, who has established me and placed me on the throne of David my father, and who has made me a house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death today.” ## 王上2:25 于是所罗门王差遣耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅，将亚多尼雅杀死。 1Ki 2:25 “So King Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he struck him down, and he died.” ## 王上2:26 王对祭司亚比亚他说：“你回亚拿突归自己的田地去吧！你本是该死的，但因你在我父亲大卫面前抬过主耶和华的约柜，又与我父亲同受一切苦难，所以我今日不将你杀死。” 1Ki 2:26 “And to Abiathar the priest the king said, “Go to Anathoth, to your estate, for you deserve death. But I will not at this time put you to death, because you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before David my father, and because you shared in all my father’s affliction.” ## 王上2:27 所罗门就革除亚比亚他，不许他作耶和华的祭司。这样，便应验耶和华在示罗论以利家所说的话。 1Ki 2:27 “So Solomon expelled Abiathar from being priest to the LORD, thus fulfilling the word of the LORD that he had spoken concerning the house of Eli in Shiloh.” ## 王上2:28 约押虽然没有归从押沙龙，却归从了亚多尼雅。他听见这风声，就逃到耶和华的帐幕，抓住祭坛的角。 1Ki 2:28 When the news came to Joab—for Joab had supported Adonijah although he had not supported Absalom—Joab fled to the tent of the LORD and caught hold of the horns of the altar. ## 王上2:29 有人告诉所罗门王说：“约押逃到耶和华的帐幕，现今在祭坛的旁边。”所罗门就差遣耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅说：“你去将他杀死。” 1Ki 2:29 “And when it was told King Solomon, “Joab has fled to the tent of the LORD, and behold, he is beside the altar,” Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, strike him down.” ## 王上2:30 比拿雅来到耶和华的帐幕，对约押说：“王吩咐说，你出来吧！”他说：“我不出去，我要死在这里。”比拿雅就去回复王说，约押如此如此回答我。 1Ki 2:30 “So Benaiah came to the tent of the LORD and said to him, “The king commands, ‘Come out.’” But he said, “No, I will die here.” Then Benaiah brought the king word again, saying, “Thus said Joab, and thus he answered me.” ## 王上2:31 王说：“你可以照着他的话行，杀死他，将他葬埋，好叫约押流无辜人血的罪，不归我和我的父家了。 1Ki 2:31 “The king replied to him, “Do as he has said, strike him down and bury him, and thus take away from me and from my father’s house the guilt for the blood that Joab shed without cause.” ## 王上2:32 耶和华必使约押流人血的罪归到他自己的头上，因为他用刀杀了两个比他又义又好的人，就是以色列元帅尼珥的儿子押尼珥和犹大元帅益帖的儿子亚玛撒，我父亲大卫却不知道。 1Ki 2:32 “The LORD will bring back his bloody deeds on his own head, because, without the knowledge of my father David, he attacked and killed with the sword two men more righteous and better than himself, Abner the son of Ner, commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, commander of the army of Judah.” ## 王上2:33 故此，流这二人血的罪，必归到约押和他后裔的头上，直到永远。惟有大卫和他的后裔，并他的家与国，必从耶和华那里得平安，直到永远。” 1Ki 2:33 “So shall their blood come back on the head of Joab and on the head of his descendants forever. But for David and for his descendants and for his house and for his throne there shall be peace from the LORD forevermore.” ## 王上2:34 于是耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅上去，将约押杀死，葬在旷野约押自己的坟墓里(“坟墓”原文作“房屋”)。 1Ki 2:34 Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and struck him down and put him to death. And he was buried in his own house in the wilderness. ## 王上2:35 王就立耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅作元帅，代替约押；又使祭司撒督代替亚比亚他。 1Ki 2:35 “The king put Benaiah the son of Jehoiada over the army in place of Joab, and the king put Zadok the priest in the place of Abiathar.” ## 王上2:36 王差遣人将示每召来，对他说：“你要在耶路撒冷建造房屋居住，不可出来往别处去。 1Ki 2:36 “Then the king sent and summoned Shimei and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and dwell there, and do not go out from there to any place whatever.” ## 王上2:37 你当确实地知道，你何日出来过汲沦溪，何日必死！你的罪(原文作“血”)必归到自己的头上。” 1Ki 2:37 “For on the day you go out and cross the brook Kidron, know for certain that you shall die. Your blood shall be on your own head.” ## 王上2:38 示每对王说：“这话甚好！我主我王怎样说，仆人必怎样行。”于是示每多日住在耶路撒冷。 1Ki 2:38 “And Shimei said to the king, “What you say is good; as my lord the king has said, so will your servant do.” So Shimei lived in Jerusalem many days.” ## 王上2:39 过了三年，示每的两个仆人逃到迦特王玛迦的儿子亚吉那里去。有人告诉示每说：“你的仆人在迦特。” 1Ki 2:39 “But it happened at the end of three years that two of Shimei’s servants ran away to Achish, son of Maacah, king of Gath. And when it was told Shimei, “Behold, your servants are in Gath,” ## 王上2:40 示每起来，备上驴，往迦特到亚吉那里去找他的仆人，就从迦特带他仆人回来。 1Ki 2:40 Shimei arose and saddled a donkey and went to Gath to Achish to seek his servants. Shimei went and brought his servants from Gath. ## 王上2:41 有人告诉所罗门说：“示每出耶路撒冷往迦特去回来了。” 1Ki 2:41 “And when Solomon was told that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and returned,” ## 王上2:42 王就差遣人将示每召了来，对他说：“我岂不是叫你指着耶和华起誓，并且警戒你说：‘你当确实地知道，你哪日出来往别处去，哪日必死’吗？你也对我说：‘这话甚好！我必听从。’ 1Ki 2:42 “the king sent and summoned Shimei and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the LORD and solemnly warn you, saying, ‘Know for certain that on the day you go out and go to any place whatever, you shall die’? And you said to me, ‘What you say is good; I will obey.’” ## 王上2:43 现在你为何不遵守你指着耶和华起的誓和我所吩咐你的命令呢？” 1Ki 2:43 “Why then have you not kept your oath to the LORD and the commandment with which I commanded you?” ## 王上2:44 王又对示每说：“你向我父亲大卫所行的一切恶事，你自己心里也知道，所以耶和华必使你的罪恶归到自己的头上。 1Ki 2:44 “The king also said to Shimei, “You know in your own heart all the harm that you did to David my father. So the LORD will bring back your harm on your own head.” ## 王上2:45 惟有所罗门王必得福，并且大卫的国位必在耶和华面前坚定，直到永远。” 1Ki 2:45 “But King Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the LORD forever.” ## 王上2:46 于是王吩咐耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅，他就去杀死示每。这样，便坚定了所罗门的国位。 1Ki 2:46 “Then the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck him down, and he died. So the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon.”
