撒母耳記下第24章 |
1 耶和華復怒以色列族、任大闢眩惑於衷、使核猶大以色列二族、 |
2 軍長約押侍側、王諭之曰、爾遍行以色列族支派、自但至別是巴核其民數、反而告我。 |
3 約押告王曰、勿論民數多寡、惟願耶和華爾之上帝、增益百倍、我主我王目擊其事、然我主我王喜於核民、誠何故哉。 |
4 王意已決、約押及武士長不能違、於是退而核數以色列族。 |
5 濟約但至伽得河中之亞囉耳、建營於邑南、牙設相向之所。 |
6 後至基列答丁合示地、及但雅安、環繞至西頓、 |
7 至推羅城、與希未迦南諸邑、延出猶大南方、至別是巴、 |
8 遍行其地、凡越九月二十日、而返耶路撒冷。 |
9 約押核民衆、以數進於王、以色列族能從軍者八十萬、猶大族五十萬。 |
10 大闢核民旣畢、中心不安、禱於耶和華曰、我所行者、大干罪戾、不智孰甚、求耶和華宥僕之過。 |
11 先見者伽得爲大闢所倚重、請朝大闢起、耶和華命彼、 |
12 往告大闢曰、三災之中、耶和華必降一於爾、使爾自擇。 |
13 伽得告大闢曰、或饑饉臨於爾土、歷至七年、或爲敵追襲、歷至三月、或瘟疫流行爾國、歷至三日、爾其思之、俾我反告遣我者。 |
14 大闢曰、我迫阨甚矣、耶和華矜憫爲懷、願陷於其手、勿陷於人手。 |
15 當日清晨、耶和華降疫癘、遍染以色列族、迄所定之期、自但及別是巴死者七萬。 |
16 天使在耶路撒冷、舉手欲擊都城、耶和華怒息、諭剿民之天使曰、足矣、可止爾手。其時天使在耶布士人亞拿勞之穀塲。 |
17 大闢見擊民之天使、則曰、我犯罪行惡、何與羣羊、請爾攻我、及我父之家。 |
18 時伽得見大闢曰、往前築壇、奉事耶和華、在耶布士人亞勞拿之穀塲。 |
19 大闢依伽得之言、遵耶和華之命而行。 |
20 亞勞拿遙見王與羣臣咸至、遂出、伏地拜王、 |
21 曰、我主我王、蒞臨僕所、曷故。大闢曰、欲購穀塲、以築祭壇、奉事耶和華、使疫止於民間。 |
22 亞勞拿曰、我主我王、取所欲取、獻所欲獻、在此有牛、以爲燔祭、亦有打穀之器、與牛軛爲柴。 |
23 亞勞拿以此物悉與王、慨然無吝色、曰、願爾之上帝耶和華悅爾。 |
24 王曰、不然、我欲購之、以償其値、不欲不費眥財、而獻燔祭、奉吾之上帝耶和華。於是大闢以金二十有五、購穀塲與牛。 |
25 在彼築壇、奉事耶和華、獻燔祭及酬恩之祭於上、耶和華允其所祈、恤其國民、瘟疫止息、不染於以色列族地。 |
2 SamuelChapter 24 |
1 AND again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he incited David against them and said to him, Go, number Israel and Judah. |
2 So the king said to Joab the commander of the army who was with him. Go now through all the tribes of Israel, from Dan to Beer-sheba and number the people, and bring to me the sum of the number of the people. |
3 And Joab said to the king, May the LORD your God add to the people a hundredfold, howsoever many they be, so that the eyes of my lord the king may see it; but why does my lord the king delight in this thing? |
4 Notwithstanding the king's word prevailed against Joab and against the commanders of the army. And Joab and the commanders of the army went out from the presence of the king to number the people of Israel. |
5 And they crossed the Jordan and came to Sharob, which is on the right side of the city that lies in the midst of the valley of Gad and toward Eleazer; |
6 Then they came to Tyre and Zidon, to the land of the Canaanites and the land of the Hittites and the land of the Jebusites, |
7 And when they had gone through the whole land, they came to the land of Judah in thirty-eight days. Then they came to Dan, and circled Zidon. |
8 And when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days. |
9 And Joab brought the sum of the number of the people to the king; and there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword; and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men. |
10 But David's heart smote him after he had numbered the people. And David said to the LORD, I have sinned greatly in what I have done; and now, I beseech thee, O LORD, for I have done very foolishly. |
11 When David arose in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, saying, |
12 Go and say to David, Thus says the LORD: I will bring upon you one of three calamities; choose one of them, that I may do it to you. |
13 So the prophet Gad came to David and said to him, These are the calamities which may come upon you: there shall seven years of famine come in your land, or you shall flee three months before your enemies while they pursue you, or there shall be three days of pestilence in your land. Now therefore say what answer I shall return to him who sent me to you. |
14 Then David answered and said to the prophet Gad, I am greatly distressed; it is better for me to be punished by the hand of the LORD our God; for his mercies are great: let us not be punished by the hand of men. |
15 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning until the evening; and there died of the people from Dan to Beer-sheba seventy thousand men. |
16 And when the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD restrained the angel of death who was destroying the people, and said to him, You have destroyed enough, stay now your hand. And the angel of the LORD was standing by the threshing floor of Aran the Jebusite. |
17 Then David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who smote the people, and said to the angel, I have sinned and I have given provocation; but these innocent sheep, what have they done? Let thy hand be against me, and against my father's house. |
18 And Gad the prophet came that day to David and said to him, Go up and build an altar to the LORD in the threshing floor of Aran the Jebusite. |
19 And David went up, according to the word of Gad, as the LORD had commanded him. |
20 And when Aran the Jebusite turned back and saw the king and his servants coming toward him, Aran fell down and did obeisance to the king with his face to the ground. |
21 And Aran said, Why has my lord the king come to his servant? And David said to him, To buy the threshing floor from you, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be stayed from the people. |
22 Then Aran said to David, Let my lord the king take what seems good to him; behold, here are the oxen for the burnt offering, and the ploughshare and the yokes for fuel. |
23 All these things did Aran give to King David. And Aran said to the king, May the LORD your God bless you. |
24 And the king said to Aran, No, but I will surely buy it from you for a price; and I will not offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God of that which cost me nothing. So David bought the threshing floor by the garden and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver. |
25 And David built there an altar to the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD was entreated for the land, and the plague was stayed from Israel. |
