撒母耳记下-2 Samuel 第 4 章

4:1扫罗的儿子伊施波设听见押尼珥死在希伯仑,手就发软;全以色列也都惊惶。
Now when Saul's son Ish-bosheth heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost courage, and all Israel was dismayed.
4:2扫罗的儿子伊施波设有两个跟随的人,都是带队的首领,一个名叫巴拿,一个名叫利甲,是便雅悯子孙比录人临门的儿子;比录也算是属于便雅悯。
And Saul's son had two men, the captains of bands. The name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the second Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin; for Beeroth is also considered to belong to Benjamin.
4:3比录人早先逃到基他音,在那里寄居,直到今日。
And the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have been sojourners there until this day.
4:4扫罗的儿子约拿单有一个儿子,是两腿残废的。扫罗和约拿单死亡的消息从耶斯列传到的时候,他才五岁。他乳母抱着他逃跑;因为跑得太急,孩子掉下来,腿就瘸了。他名叫米非波设。
Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son who had crippled feet. He was five years old when the news came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel. And his nurse took him up and fled. And as she hurried to flee, he fell and was made lame. And his name was Mephibosheth.
4:5一日,比录人临门的两个儿子利甲和巴拿出去,约在正午天热的时候,到了伊施波设的家;伊施波设正睡午觉。
And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and around the time of the heat of the day they came into the house of Ish-bosheth, while he was taking his noonday rest.
4:6他们进了房子,假作要取麦子,就刺透伊施波设的肚腹;然后利甲和他兄弟巴拿就逃跑了。
And they came into the midst of the house, as though they were taking wheat. And they stabbed him in the stomach. And Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.
4:7他们进房子的时候,伊施波设正在卧房里躺在床上,他们击杀他,割了他的首级,拿着首级在通往亚拉巴的路上走了一整夜;
Now they had come into the house as he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, and they struck him and killed him and beheaded him. And they took his head and traveled by the way of the Arabah all night.
4:8将伊施波设的首级拿到希伯仑见大卫,对王说,你的仇敌扫罗曾寻索你的性命;看哪,这是他儿子伊施波设的首级。耶和华今日为我主我王在扫罗和他后裔的身上报了仇。
And they brought the head of Ish- bosheth to David in Hebron; and they said to the king, Here is the head of Ish-bosheth the son of Saul, your enemy who sought your life. And Jehovah has granted my lord the king to be avenged this day of Saul and of his seed.
4:9大卫回答比录人临门的儿子利甲和他兄弟巴拿说,我指着救赎我性命脱离一切苦难之永活的耶和华起誓:
Then David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, As Jehovah lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all distress,
4:10从前有人报告我说,扫罗死了,他自以为是报好消息;我就拿住他,将他杀在洗革拉,这是我给他作报消息的赏赐。
When one told me, saying, Saul is now dead! thinking he was a bearer of good news, I took hold of him and slew him in Ziklag-that was the reward I gave him for the news.
4:11何况恶人在义人家里将他杀在床上,我岂不从你们手中追讨流他血的罪,从地上除灭你们呢?
How much more when wicked men slay a righteous person in his own house upon his bed! And now should I not demand his blood of your hand and take you away from the earth?
4:12于是大卫吩咐少年人将他们杀了,砍断他们的手脚,把他们挂在希伯仑的池旁;却将伊施波设的首级葬在希伯仑押尼珥的坟墓里。
Then David commanded his young men, and they slew them and cut off their hands and their feet and hanged them up over the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in the sepulcher of Abner in Hebron.
