第2章

1 耶和華之使、自吉甲至普金曰、我導爾出埃及入所誓爾祖之地、我嘗言與爾立約、不失其信、

2 爾與斯土之民、不可立約、必摧其壇、汝不遵命、果何為哉。

3 故我有言、必不驅逐斯民、使彼爲肘下之棘、彼之上帝陷爾於坎阱。

4 耶和華之使、以斯言告以色列族、民大聲號泣、

5 名其地曰、普金(普金譯卽號泣。)在彼獻祭耶和華。

6 約書亞旣散民、以色列族各歸其業、據有斯土、

7 當約書亞之存日、民奉事耶和華、及其沒也、諸長老尚在、民仍服事、以長老曾目擊耶和華爲以色列族備行異蹟故也。

8 耶和華僕、嫩之子約書亞、年百有十歲而死。

9 葬於其業之隅、卽以法蓮山之亭納希烈、迦實岡北。

10 斯代之民、咸返其本、至於後世、不知耶和華、亦不知其爲以色列族行諸異蹟、

11 故行惡於耶和華前、事諸巴力。

12 導其祖出埃及之上帝耶和華、反背之、四周民之上帝、則尊崇伏拜之、以是干耶和華震怒。

13 蓋背耶和華事巴力亞大綠、

14 故耶和華怒以色列族、付於四周之敵、爲人所虜、莫能扞禦。

15 無論所往、耶和華降以禍災、踐其疇昔發誓之言、民乃悚懼。

16 耶和華挺生士師、援民於敵手、

17 乃民不聽從、狥欲從他上帝、而伏拜之、其祖在昔惟耶和華命是遵、及至斯民違道甚速。

18 耶和華旣挺生士師、則祐彼拯民出敵手、至終其世、蓋民罹暴虐、號呼以籲、故耶和華中心惻焉。

19 迨乎士師旣沒、以色列族喪其心術、較之前人尤甚、從他上帝而伏拜之、強項不馴、弗改其非。

20 耶和華震怒曰、昔我與以色列族之祖立約、惟彼違逆、不遵我命、

21 故其他族類、約書亞在時未行殲滅者、我必不驅逐、

22 以試以色列族、果遵從我道、繩其祖武否。

23 耶和華留是族、不速驅除、亦不以是族盡付約書亞手。

Judges

Chapter 2

1 And an angel4397 of the LORD3068 came5927 up from Gilgal1537 to Bochim,1066 and said,559 I made you to go5927 up out of Egypt,4714 and have brought935 you to the land776 which834 I swore7650 to your fathers;1 and I said,559 I will never3808 5769 break6565 my covenant1285 with you.

2 And you shall make3772 no3808 league1285 with the inhabitants3427 of this2063 land;776 you shall throw5422 down5422 their altars:4196 but you have not obeyed8085 my voice:6963 why4100 have you done6213 this?2063

3 Why I also1571 said,559 I will not drive1644 them out from before6440 you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides,6654 and their gods430 shall be a snare4170 to you.

4 And it came1961 to pass, when the angel4397 of the LORD3068 spoke1696 these428 words1697 to all3605 the children1121 of Israel,3478 that the people5971 lifted5375 up their voice,6963 and wept.1058

5 And they called7121 the name8034 of that place4725 Bochim:1066 and they sacrificed2076 there8033 to the LORD.3068

6 And when Joshua3091 had let the people5971 go,7971 the children1121 of Israel3478 went3212 every man376 to his inheritance5159 to possess3423 the land.776

7 And the people5971 served5647 the LORD3068 all3605 the days3117 of Joshua,3091 and all3605 the days3117 of the elders2205 that outlived748 Joshua,3091 who834 had seen7200 all3605 the great1419 works4639 of the LORD,3068 that he did6213 for Israel.3478

8 And Joshua 3091the son1121 of Nun,5126 the servant5650 of the LORD,3068 died,4191 being an hundred3967 and ten6235 years8141 old.1121

9 And they buried6912 him in the border1366 of his inheritance5159 in Timnathheres,8556 in the mount2022 of Ephraim,669 on the north6828 side of the hill2022 Gaash.1608

10 And also1571 all3605 that generation1755 were gathered622 to their fathers:1 and there arose6965 another312 generation1755 after310 them, which834 knew3045 not the LORD,3068 nor1571 yet1571 the works4639 which834 he had done6213 for Israel.3478

11 And the children1121 of Israel3478 did6213 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD,3068 and served5647 Baalim:1168

12 And they forsook5800 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 which brought3318 them out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 and followed3212 310 other312 gods,430 of the gods430 of the people5971 that were round5439 about them, and bowed7812 themselves to them, and provoked the LORD3068 to anger.3707

13 And they forsook5800 the LORD,3068 and served5647 Baal1168 and Ashtaroth.6252

14 And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was hot2734 against Israel,3478 and he delivered5414 them into the hands3027 of spoilers8154 that spoiled8155 them, and he sold4376 them into the hands3027 of their enemies341 round5439 about, so that they could3201 not any longer5750 stand5975 before6440 their enemies.341

15 Wherever3605 834 they went3318 out, the hand3027 of the LORD3068 was against them for evil,7451 as the LORD3068 had said,1696 and as the LORD3068 had sworn7650 to them: and they were greatly3966 distressed.3334

16 Nevertheless the LORD3068 raised6965 up judges,8199 which delivered3467 them out of the hand3027 of those that spoiled8154 them.

17 And yet1571 they would not listen8085 to their judges,8199 but they went a whoring2181 after310 other312 gods,430 and bowed7812 themselves to them: they turned5493 quickly4118 out of the way1870 which834 their fathers1 walked1980 in, obeying8085 the commandments4687 of the LORD;3068 but they did6213 not so.3651

18 And when3588 the LORD3068 raised6965 them up judges,8199 then the LORD3068 was with the judge,8199 and delivered3467 them out of the hand3027 of their enemies341 all3605 the days3117 of the judge:8199 for it repented5162 the LORD3068 because6440 of their groanings5009 by reason of them that oppressed3905 them and vexed1766 them.

19 And it came1961 to pass, when the judge8199 was dead,4191 that they returned,7725 and corrupted7843 themselves more than their fathers,1 in following3212 310 other312 gods430 to serve5647 them, and to bow7812 down7812 to them; they ceased5307 not from their own doings,4611 nor from their stubborn7186 way.1870

20 And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was hot2734 against Israel;3478 and he said,559 Because3282 that this2088 people1471 has transgressed5674 my covenant1285 which834 I commanded6680 their fathers,1 and have not listened8085 to my voice;6963

21 I also1571 will not from now on3254 drive3423 out any from before6440 them of the nations1471 which834 Joshua3091 left5800 when he died:4191

22 That through them I may prove5254 Israel,3478 whether they will keep8104 the way1870 of the LORD3068 to walk3212 therein, as their fathers1 did keep8104 it, or not.

23 Therefore the LORD3068 left5117 those428 nations,1471 without1115 driving3423 them out hastily;4118 neither3808 delivered5414 he them into the hand3027 of Joshua.3091

3 Why I also1571 said,559 I will not drive1644 them out from before6440 you; but they shall be as thorns in your sides,6654 and their gods430 shall be a snare4170 to you.

4 耶和華之使、以斯言告以色列族、民大聲號泣、

4 And it came1961 to pass, when the angel4397 of the LORD3068 spoke1696 these428 words1697 to all3605 the children1121 of Israel,3478 that the people5971 lifted5375 up their voice,6963 and wept.1058

5 名其地曰、普金(普金譯卽號泣。)在彼獻祭耶和華。

5 And they called7121 the name8034 of that place4725 Bochim:1066 and they sacrificed2076 there8033 to the LORD.3068

6 約書亞旣散民、以色列族各歸其業、據有斯土、

6 And when Joshua3091 had let the people5971 go,7971 the children1121 of Israel3478 went3212 every man376 to his inheritance5159 to possess3423 the land.776

7 當約書亞之存日、民奉事耶和華、及其沒也、諸長老尚在、民仍服事、以長老曾目擊耶和華爲以色列族備行異蹟故也。

7 And the people5971 served5647 the LORD3068 all3605 the days3117 of Joshua,3091 and all3605 the days3117 of the elders2205 that outlived748 Joshua,3091 who834 had seen7200 all3605 the great1419 works4639 of the LORD,3068 that he did6213 for Israel.3478

8 耶和華僕、嫩之子約書亞、年百有十歲而死。

8 And Joshua 3091the son1121 of Nun,5126 the servant5650 of the LORD,3068 died,4191 being an hundred3967 and ten6235 years8141 old.1121

9 葬於其業之隅、卽以法蓮山之亭納希烈、迦實岡北。

9 And they buried6912 him in the border1366 of his inheritance5159 in Timnathheres,8556 in the mount2022 of Ephraim,669 on the north6828 side of the hill2022 Gaash.1608

10 斯代之民、咸返其本、至於後世、不知耶和華、亦不知其爲以色列族行諸異蹟、

10 And also1571 all3605 that generation1755 were gathered622 to their fathers:1 and there arose6965 another312 generation1755 after310 them, which834 knew3045 not the LORD,3068 nor1571 yet1571 the works4639 which834 he had done6213 for Israel.3478

11 故行惡於耶和華前、事諸巴力。

11 And the children1121 of Israel3478 did6213 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the LORD,3068 and served5647 Baalim:1168

12 導其祖出埃及之上帝耶和華、反背之、四周民之上帝、則尊崇伏拜之、以是干耶和華震怒。

12 And they forsook5800 the LORD3068 God430 of their fathers,1 which brought3318 them out of the land776 of Egypt,4714 and followed3212 310 other312 gods,430 of the gods430 of the people5971 that were round5439 about them, and bowed7812 themselves to them, and provoked the LORD3068 to anger.3707

13 蓋背耶和華事巴力亞大綠、

13 And they forsook5800 the LORD,3068 and served5647 Baal1168 and Ashtaroth.6252

14 故耶和華怒以色列族、付於四周之敵、爲人所虜、莫能扞禦。

14 And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was hot2734 against Israel,3478 and he delivered5414 them into the hands3027 of spoilers8154 that spoiled8155 them, and he sold4376 them into the hands3027 of their enemies341 round5439 about, so that they could3201 not any longer5750 stand5975 before6440 their enemies.341

15 無論所往、耶和華降以禍災、踐其疇昔發誓之言、民乃悚懼。

15 Wherever3605 834 they went3318 out, the hand3027 of the LORD3068 was against them for evil,7451 as the LORD3068 had said,1696 and as the LORD3068 had sworn7650 to them: and they were greatly3966 distressed.3334

16 耶和華挺生士師、援民於敵手、

16 Nevertheless the LORD3068 raised6965 up judges,8199 which delivered3467 them out of the hand3027 of those that spoiled8154 them.

17 乃民不聽從、狥欲從他上帝、而伏拜之、其祖在昔惟耶和華命是遵、及至斯民違道甚速。

17 And yet1571 they would not listen8085 to their judges,8199 but they went a whoring2181 after310 other312 gods,430 and bowed7812 themselves to them: they turned5493 quickly4118 out of the way1870 which834 their fathers1 walked1980 in, obeying8085 the commandments4687 of the LORD;3068 but they did6213 not so.3651

19 迨乎士師旣沒、以色列族喪其心術、較之前人尤甚、從他上帝而伏拜之、強項不馴、弗改其非。

20 耶和華震怒曰、昔我與以色列族之祖立約、惟彼違逆、不遵我命、

20 And the anger639 of the LORD3068 was hot2734 against Israel;3478 and he said,559 Because3282 that this2088 people1471 has transgressed5674 my covenant1285 which834 I commanded6680 their fathers,1 and have not listened8085 to my voice;6963

21 故其他族類、約書亞在時未行殲滅者、我必不驅逐、

22 以試以色列族、果遵從我道、繩其祖武否。

22 That through them I may prove5254 Israel,3478 whether they will keep8104 the way1870 of the LORD3068 to walk3212 therein, as their fathers1 did keep8104 it, or not.

23 耶和華留是族、不速驅除、亦不以是族盡付約書亞手。

23 Therefore the LORD3068 left5117 those428 nations,1471 without1115 driving3423 them out hastily;4118 neither3808 delivered5414 he them into the hand3027 of Joshua.3091
