創世記-Genesis 第 15 章 |
15:1 | 這些事以後,耶和華的話在異象中臨到亞伯蘭,說,亞伯蘭,你不要懼怕;我是你的盾牌,是你極大的賞賜。 After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Do not be afraid, Abram; I am your shield and your exceedingly great reward. |
15:2 | 亞伯蘭說,主耶和華阿,我快要去世了還沒有兒子,你還賜我什麼呢?那要承受我家業的,是大馬色人以利以謝。 And Abram said, O Lord Jehovah, what will You give me, for I go childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus? |
15:3 | 亞伯蘭又說,你沒有給我後裔;那在我家中的仆人,就是我的後嗣。 And Abram said, Since You have given me no seed, therefore, a servant in my house is my heir. |
15:4 | 但耶和華的話臨到他說,這人必不成為你的後嗣;你本身將要生的,才是你的後嗣。 But then the word of Jehovah came to him, saying, This man shall not be your heir, but he who will come out from your own body shall be your heir. |
15:5 | 於是領他走到外邊,說,你向天觀看,數算眾星,能數得過來麼?又對他說,你的後裔將要如此。 And He brought him outside and said, Look now toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are able to count them. And He said to him, So shall your seed be. |
15:6 | 亞伯蘭信耶和華,耶和華就以此算為他的義。 And he believed Jehovah, and He accounted it to him as righteousness. |
15:7 | 耶和華又對他說,我是耶和華,曾領你出了迦勒底的吾珥,為要將這地賜你為業。 Then He said to him, I am Jehovah who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to inherit it. |
15:8 | 亞伯蘭說,主耶和華阿,我怎能知道必得這地為業呢? And he said, O Lord Jehovah, how will I know that I will inherit it? |
15:9 | 祂說,你為我取一隻三歲的母牛、一隻三歲的母山羊、一隻三歲的公綿羊、一隻斑鳩、一隻雛鴿。 And He said to him, Bring Me a three-year-old heifer and a three-year-old female goat and a three-year-old ram and a turtledove and a young pigeon. |
15:10 | 亞伯蘭就取了這些來,每樣從中剖開,分成兩半,一半對著一半的擺列,隻有鳥沒有剖開。 And he brought Him all these and cut them in two in the middle and laid the half of each opposite the other, but the birds he did not cut in two. |
15:11 | 有鷙鳥下來,落在死畜的肉上,亞伯蘭就把牠們嚇飛了。 And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away. |
15:12 | 日頭正落的時候,亞伯蘭沉沉的睡了;忽然有驚人的大黑暗落在他身上。 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, behold, a terror and great darkness fell upon him. |
15:13 | 耶和華對亞伯蘭說,你要確實知道,你的後裔必寄居別人的地,又服事那地的人;那地的人要苦待他們四百年。 And He said to Abram, Know assuredly that your seed will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and they will serve them; and they will afflict them four hundred years. |
15:14 | 但他們所要服事的那國,我要懲罰,後來他們必帶著許多財物從那裏出來。 But I will also judge that nation, whom they will serve, and afterward they will come out with great possessions. |
15:15 | 至於你,你要享大壽數,被人埋葬,平平安安的歸到你列祖那裏。 But as for you, you will go to your fathers in peace; you will be buried in a good old age. |
15:16 | 到了第四代,他們必回到此地,因為亞摩利人的罪孽還沒有滿盈。 And in the fourth generation they will come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete. |
15:17 | 日落天黑,不料有冒煙的爐並燒著的火把,從那些肉塊中經過。 And when the sun went down and it was dark, there came a smoking furnace and a torch of fire which passed between these pieces. |
15:18 | 當那日,耶和華與亞伯蘭立約,說,我已賜給你的後裔,從埃及河直到伯拉大河之地, On that day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, To your seed do I give this land, From the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates: |
15:19 | 就是基尼人、基尼洗人、甲摩尼人、 The land of the Kenites and the Kenizzites and the Kadmonites |
15:20 | 赫人、比利洗人、利乏音人、 And the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Rephaim |
15:21 | 亞摩利人、迦南人、革迦撒人、耶布斯人之地。 And the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Girgashites and the Jebusites. |
