撒母耳記下

第7章

1 那時[when],王住在自己宮中,耶和華[and]使他安靖,不被四圍的一切[all]仇敵擾亂;

2 那時,王對先知拿單說:「看哪,我住在香柏木的宮中,神的約櫃反在幔子裏。」

3 拿單對王說:「你可以照你的心意而行,因為耶和華與你同在。」

4 當夜,耶和華的話臨到拿單說:

5 「你去告訴我僕人大衛,說耶和華如此說:『你豈可建造殿宇給我居住呢?

6 自從我領以色列人出埃及直到今日,我未曾住過殿宇,常在會幕和帳幕中行走。

7 凡我同以色列人所走的地方,我何曾向以色列一支派的士師,就是我吩咐牧養我民以色列的說:你們為何不給我建造香柏木的殿宇呢?』

8 「現在,你要告訴我僕人大衛,說大軍之耶和華如此說:『我從羊欄[sheepcote]中將你召來,叫你不再跟從羊群,立你作治理我民以色列的[ruler over my people, over Israel]

9 你無論往哪裏去,我常與你同在,剪除你的一切仇敵,使他們不在你眼前[out of thy sight][and]使你得了[have made]大名,好像世上大大有名的人一樣。

10 並且[Moreover]我必為我民以色列選定一個地方,栽培他們,使他們住自己的地方,不再遷移;凶惡之子也不像從前擾害他們,

11 並不像我命士師治理我民以色列的時候一樣。我必使你安靖,不被一切仇敵擾亂,並且我─耶和華應許你,必為你建立家室。

12 你壽數滿足、與你列祖同睡的時候,我必使你的後裔接續你的位;我也必堅定他的國。

13 他必為我的名建造殿宇;我必堅定他的國位,直到永遠。

14 我要作他的父,他要作我的子;他若[commit]罪,我必用人的杖責打他,用人的鞭責罰他。

15 但我的慈愛仍不離開他,像離開在你面前所廢棄的掃羅一樣。

16 你的家和你的國必在[thee]面前永遠堅立;你的寶座[throne]也必堅定,直到永遠。』」

17 拿單就按這一切話,照這異象[vision],告訴大衛。

18 於是大衛王進去,坐在耶和華面前,說:「主耶和華啊,我是誰?我的家算甚麼?你竟使我到這地步呢?

19 主耶和華啊,這在你眼中還看為小,又應許你僕人的家至於久遠。主耶和華啊,這豈是人所常遇的事嗎?

20 主耶和華啊,我還有何言可以對你說呢?因為你知道你的僕人。

21行了[done]這大事使你的[thy]僕人知道,是因你所應許的話,也是照你的心意。

22 耶和華神[LORD God]啊,你本為大,照我們耳中聽見,沒有可比你的;除你以外再無神。

23 世上有何民能比你的民以色列呢?[God]從埃及救贖他們作自己的子民,又在你贖出來的民面前行大而可畏的事,驅逐列邦人和他們的眾神,顯出你的大名。

24 你曾堅立你的民以色列作你的子民,直到永遠;你─耶和華也作了他們的神。

25 「耶和華神啊,你論到你[concerning thy]僕人和僕人家所說[spoken]的話,求你堅定,直到永遠;照你所說的而行。

26 願人永遠尊你的名為大,說:『大軍之耶和華是治理以色列的神。』這樣,你僕人大衛的家必在你面前堅立。

27 大軍之耶和華─以色列的神啊,因你啟示你的僕人說:『我必為你建立家室』,所以[thy]僕人在他心裏[in his heart]向你如此祈禱。

28 「主耶和華啊,唯有你是神。你的話是真實的;你也應許將這福氣賜給[thy]僕人。

29 現在求你賜福與[thy]僕人的家,可以永存在你面前。主耶和華啊,這是你所應許的。願你永遠賜福與[thy]僕人的家。」

Chapter 7

1 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 the king4428 sat3427 in his house,1004 and the LORD3068 had given him rest5117 round about4480 5439 from all4480 3605 his enemies;341

2 That the king4428 said559 unto413 Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 See7200 now,4994 I595 dwell3427 in a house1004 of cedar,730 but the ark727 of God430 dwelleth3427 within8432 curtains.3407

3 And Nathan5416 said559 to413 the king,4428 Go,1980 do6213 all3605 that834 is in thine heart;3824 for3588 the LORD3068 is with5973 thee.

4 And it came to pass1961 that1931 night,3915 that the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 Nathan,5416 saying,559

5 Go1980 and tell559 413 my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 Shalt thou859 build1129 me a house1004 for me to dwell3427 in?

6 Whereas3588 I have not3808 dwelt3427 in any house1004 since the time4480 3117 that I brought up5927 853 the children1121 of Israel3478 out of Egypt,4480 4714 even to5704 this2088 day,3117 but have1961 walked1980 in a tent168 and in a tabernacle.4908

7 In all3605 the places wherein834 I have walked1980 with all3605 the children1121 of Israel3478 spoke1696 I a word1697 with854 any259 of the tribes7626 of Israel,3478 whom834 I commanded6680 to feed7462 853 my people5971 853 Israel,3478 saying,559 Why4100 build1129 ye not3808 me a house1004 of cedar?730

8 Now6258 therefore3541 so shalt thou say559 unto my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 I589 took3947 thee from4480 the sheepcote,5116 from following4480 310 the sheep,6629 to be1961 ruler5057 over5921 my people,5971 over5921 Israel: 3478

9 And I was1961 with5973 thee whithersoever3605 834 thou wentest,1980 and have cut off3772 853 all3605 thine enemies341 out of thy sight,4480 6440 and have made6213 thee a great1419 name,8034 like unto the name8034 of the great1419 men that834 are in the earth.776

10 Moreover I will appoint7760 a place4725 for my people5971 Israel,3478 and will plant5193 them, that they may dwell7931 in a place8478 of their own, and move7264 no3808 more;5750 neither3808 shall the children1121 of wickedness5766 afflict6031 them any more,3254 as834 formerly,7223

11 And as since4480 the time3117 that834 I commanded6680 judges8199 to be over5921 my people5971 Israel,3478 and have caused thee to rest5117 from all4480 3605 thine enemies.341 Also the LORD3068 telleth5046 thee that3588 he will make6213 thee a house.1004

12 And when3588 thy days3117 be fulfilled,4390 and thou shalt sleep7901 with854 thy fathers,1 I will set up6965 853 thy seed2233 after310 thee, which834 shall proceed3318 out of thy bowels,4480 4578 and I will establish3559 853 his kingdom.4467

13 He1931 shall build1129 a house1004 for my name,8034 and I will establish3559 853 the throne3678 of his kingdom4467 forever.5704 5769

14 I589 will be1961 his father,1 and he1931 shall be1961 my son.1121 If834 he commit iniquity,5753 I will chasten3198 him with the rod7626 of men,376 and with the stripes5061 of the children1121 of men: 120

15 But my mercy2617 shall not3808 depart away5493 from4480 him, as834 I took5493 it from4480 5973 Saul,7586 whom834 I put away5493 before4480 6440 thee.

16 And thine house1004 and thy kingdom4467 shall be established539 forever5704 5769 before6440 thee: thy throne3678 shall be1961 established3559 forever.5704 5769

17 According to all3605 these428 words,1697 and according to all3605 this2088 vision,2384 so3651 did Nathan5416 speak1696 unto413 David.1732

18 Then went935 king4428 David1732 in, and sat3427 before6440 the LORD,3069 and he said,559 Who4310 am I,595 O Lord136 GOD?3069 and what4310 is my house,1004 that3588 thou hast brought935 me hitherto?5704 1988

19 And this2063 was yet5750 a small6994 thing in thy sight,5869 O Lord136 GOD;3069 but thou hast spoken1696 also1571 of413 thy servant's5650 house1004 for a great while to come.4480 7350 And is this2063 the manner8452 of man,120 O Lord136 GOD?3069

20 And what4100 can David1732 say3254 1696 more5750 unto413 thee? for thou,859 Lord136 GOD,3069 knowest3045 853 thy servant.5650

21 For thy word's sake,5668 1697 and according to thine own heart,3820 hast thou done6213 853 all3605 these2063 great things,1420 to make853 thy servant5650 know3045 them.

22 Wherefore5921 3651 thou art great,1431 O LORD3068 God:136 for3588 there is none369 like thee,3644 neither369 is there any God430 beside2108 thee, according to all3605 that834 we have heard8085 with our ears.241

23 And what4310 one259 nation1471 in the earth776 is like thy people,5971 even like Israel,3478 whom834 God430 went1980 to redeem6299 for a people5971 to himself, and to make7760 him a name,8034 and to do6213 for you great1420 things and terrible,3372 for thy land,776 before4480 6440 thy people,5971 which834 thou redeemedst6299 to thee from Egypt,4480 4714 from the nations1471 and their gods?430

24 For thou hast confirmed3559 to thyself853 thy people5971 Israel3478 to be a people5971 unto thee forever:5704 5769 and thou,859 LORD,3068 art become1961 their God.430

25 And now,6258 O LORD3068 God,430 the word1697 that834 thou hast spoken1696 concerning5921 thy servant,5650 and concerning5921 his house,1004 establish6965 it, forever,5704 5769 and do6213 as834 thou hast said.1696

26 And let thy name8034 be magnified1431 forever,5704 5769 saying,559 The LORD3068 of hosts6635 is the God430 over5921 Israel:3478 and let the house1004 of thy servant5650 David1732 be1961 established3559 before6440 thee.

27 For3588 thou,859 O LORD3068 of hosts,6635 God430 of Israel,3478 hast revealed1540 241 to thy servant,5650 saying,559 I will build1129 thee a house:1004 therefore5921 3651 hath thy servant5650 found4672 in853 his heart3820 to pray6419 853 this2063 prayer8605 unto413 thee.

28 And now,6258 O Lord136 GOD,3069 thou859 art that1931 God,430 and thy words1697 be1961 true,571 and thou hast promised1696 853 this2063 goodness2896 unto413 thy servant: 5650

29 Therefore now6258 let it please2974 thee to bless1288 853 the house1004 of thy servant,5650 that it may continue1961 forever5769 before6440 thee: for3588 thou,859 O Lord136 GOD,3069 hast spoken1696 it: and with thy blessing4480 1293 let the house1004 of thy servant5650 be blessed1288 forever.5769

Chapter 7

1 那時[when],王住在自己宮中,耶和華[and]使他安靖,不被四圍的一切[all]仇敵擾亂;

1 And it came to pass,1961 when3588 the king4428 sat3427 in his house,1004 and the LORD3068 had given him rest5117 round about4480 5439 from all4480 3605 his enemies;341

2 那時,王對先知拿單說:「看哪,我住在香柏木的宮中,神的約櫃反在幔子裏。」

2 That the king4428 said559 unto413 Nathan5416 the prophet,5030 See7200 now,4994 I595 dwell3427 in a house1004 of cedar,730 but the ark727 of God430 dwelleth3427 within8432 curtains.3407

3 拿單對王說:「你可以照你的心意而行,因為耶和華與你同在。」

3 And Nathan5416 said559 to413 the king,4428 Go,1980 do6213 all3605 that834 is in thine heart;3824 for3588 the LORD3068 is with5973 thee.

4 當夜,耶和華的話臨到拿單說:

4 And it came to pass1961 that1931 night,3915 that the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 Nathan,5416 saying,559

5 「你去告訴我僕人大衛,說耶和華如此說:『你豈可建造殿宇給我居住呢?

5 Go1980 and tell559 413 my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD,3068 Shalt thou859 build1129 me a house1004 for me to dwell3427 in?

6 自從我領以色列人出埃及直到今日,我未曾住過殿宇,常在會幕和帳幕中行走。

6 Whereas3588 I have not3808 dwelt3427 in any house1004 since the time4480 3117 that I brought up5927 853 the children1121 of Israel3478 out of Egypt,4480 4714 even to5704 this2088 day,3117 but have1961 walked1980 in a tent168 and in a tabernacle.4908

7 凡我同以色列人所走的地方,我何曾向以色列一支派的士師,就是我吩咐牧養我民以色列的說:你們為何不給我建造香柏木的殿宇呢?』

7 In all3605 the places wherein834 I have walked1980 with all3605 the children1121 of Israel3478 spoke1696 I a word1697 with854 any259 of the tribes7626 of Israel,3478 whom834 I commanded6680 to feed7462 853 my people5971 853 Israel,3478 saying,559 Why4100 build1129 ye not3808 me a house1004 of cedar?730

8 「現在,你要告訴我僕人大衛,說大軍之耶和華如此說:『我從羊欄[sheepcote]中將你召來,叫你不再跟從羊群,立你作治理我民以色列的[ruler over my people, over Israel]

8 Now6258 therefore3541 so shalt thou say559 unto my servant5650 David,1732 Thus3541 saith559 the LORD3068 of hosts,6635 I589 took3947 thee from4480 the sheepcote,5116 from following4480 310 the sheep,6629 to be1961 ruler5057 over5921 my people,5971 over5921 Israel: 3478

9 你無論往哪裏去,我常與你同在,剪除你的一切仇敵,使他們不在你眼前[out of thy sight][and]使你得了[have made]大名,好像世上大大有名的人一樣。

9 And I was1961 with5973 thee whithersoever3605 834 thou wentest,1980 and have cut off3772 853 all3605 thine enemies341 out of thy sight,4480 6440 and have made6213 thee a great1419 name,8034 like unto the name8034 of the great1419 men that834 are in the earth.776

10 並且[Moreover]我必為我民以色列選定一個地方,栽培他們,使他們住自己的地方,不再遷移;凶惡之子也不像從前擾害他們,

10 Moreover I will appoint7760 a place4725 for my people5971 Israel,3478 and will plant5193 them, that they may dwell7931 in a place8478 of their own, and move7264 no3808 more;5750 neither3808 shall the children1121 of wickedness5766 afflict6031 them any more,3254 as834 formerly,7223

11 並不像我命士師治理我民以色列的時候一樣。我必使你安靖,不被一切仇敵擾亂,並且我─耶和華應許你,必為你建立家室。

11 And as since4480 the time3117 that834 I commanded6680 judges8199 to be over5921 my people5971 Israel,3478 and have caused thee to rest5117 from all4480 3605 thine enemies.341 Also the LORD3068 telleth5046 thee that3588 he will make6213 thee a house.1004

12 你壽數滿足、與你列祖同睡的時候,我必使你的後裔接續你的位;我也必堅定他的國。

12 And when3588 thy days3117 be fulfilled,4390 and thou shalt sleep7901 with854 thy fathers,1 I will set up6965 853 thy seed2233 after310 thee, which834 shall proceed3318 out of thy bowels,4480 4578 and I will establish3559 853 his kingdom.4467

13 他必為我的名建造殿宇;我必堅定他的國位,直到永遠。

13 He1931 shall build1129 a house1004 for my name,8034 and I will establish3559 853 the throne3678 of his kingdom4467 forever.5704 5769

14 我要作他的父,他要作我的子;他若[commit]罪,我必用人的杖責打他,用人的鞭責罰他。

14 I589 will be1961 his father,1 and he1931 shall be1961 my son.1121 If834 he commit iniquity,5753 I will chasten3198 him with the rod7626 of men,376 and with the stripes5061 of the children1121 of men: 120

15 但我的慈愛仍不離開他,像離開在你面前所廢棄的掃羅一樣。

15 But my mercy2617 shall not3808 depart away5493 from4480 him, as834 I took5493 it from4480 5973 Saul,7586 whom834 I put away5493 before4480 6440 thee.

16 你的家和你的國必在[thee]面前永遠堅立;你的寶座[throne]也必堅定,直到永遠。』」

16 And thine house1004 and thy kingdom4467 shall be established539 forever5704 5769 before6440 thee: thy throne3678 shall be1961 established3559 forever.5704 5769

17 拿單就按這一切話,照這異象[vision],告訴大衛。

17 According to all3605 these428 words,1697 and according to all3605 this2088 vision,2384 so3651 did Nathan5416 speak1696 unto413 David.1732

18 於是大衛王進去,坐在耶和華面前,說:「主耶和華啊,我是誰?我的家算甚麼?你竟使我到這地步呢?

18 Then went935 king4428 David1732 in, and sat3427 before6440 the LORD,3069 and he said,559 Who4310 am I,595 O Lord136 GOD?3069 and what4310 is my house,1004 that3588 thou hast brought935 me hitherto?5704 1988

19 主耶和華啊,這在你眼中還看為小,又應許你僕人的家至於久遠。主耶和華啊,這豈是人所常遇的事嗎?

19 And this2063 was yet5750 a small6994 thing in thy sight,5869 O Lord136 GOD;3069 but thou hast spoken1696 also1571 of413 thy servant's5650 house1004 for a great while to come.4480 7350 And is this2063 the manner8452 of man,120 O Lord136 GOD?3069

20 主耶和華啊,我還有何言可以對你說呢?因為你知道你的僕人。

20 And what4100 can David1732 say3254 1696 more5750 unto413 thee? for thou,859 Lord136 GOD,3069 knowest3045 853 thy servant.5650

21行了[done]這大事使你的[thy]僕人知道,是因你所應許的話,也是照你的心意。

21 For thy word's sake,5668 1697 and according to thine own heart,3820 hast thou done6213 853 all3605 these2063 great things,1420 to make853 thy servant5650 know3045 them.

22 耶和華神[LORD God]啊,你本為大,照我們耳中聽見,沒有可比你的;除你以外再無神。

22 Wherefore5921 3651 thou art great,1431 O LORD3068 God:136 for3588 there is none369 like thee,3644 neither369 is there any God430 beside2108 thee, according to all3605 that834 we have heard8085 with our ears.241

23 世上有何民能比你的民以色列呢?[God]從埃及救贖他們作自己的子民,又在你贖出來的民面前行大而可畏的事,驅逐列邦人和他們的眾神,顯出你的大名。

23 And what4310 one259 nation1471 in the earth776 is like thy people,5971 even like Israel,3478 whom834 God430 went1980 to redeem6299 for a people5971 to himself, and to make7760 him a name,8034 and to do6213 for you great1420 things and terrible,3372 for thy land,776 before4480 6440 thy people,5971 which834 thou redeemedst6299 to thee from Egypt,4480 4714 from the nations1471 and their gods?430

24 你曾堅立你的民以色列作你的子民,直到永遠;你─耶和華也作了他們的神。

24 For thou hast confirmed3559 to thyself853 thy people5971 Israel3478 to be a people5971 unto thee forever:5704 5769 and thou,859 LORD,3068 art become1961 their God.430

25 「耶和華神啊,你論到你[concerning thy]僕人和僕人家所說[spoken]的話,求你堅定,直到永遠;照你所說的而行。

25 And now,6258 O LORD3068 God,430 the word1697 that834 thou hast spoken1696 concerning5921 thy servant,5650 and concerning5921 his house,1004 establish6965 it, forever,5704 5769 and do6213 as834 thou hast said.1696

26 願人永遠尊你的名為大,說:『大軍之耶和華是治理以色列的神。』這樣,你僕人大衛的家必在你面前堅立。

26 And let thy name8034 be magnified1431 forever,5704 5769 saying,559 The LORD3068 of hosts6635 is the God430 over5921 Israel:3478 and let the house1004 of thy servant5650 David1732 be1961 established3559 before6440 thee.

27 大軍之耶和華─以色列的神啊,因你啟示你的僕人說:『我必為你建立家室』,所以[thy]僕人在他心裏[in his heart]向你如此祈禱。

27 For3588 thou,859 O LORD3068 of hosts,6635 God430 of Israel,3478 hast revealed1540 241 to thy servant,5650 saying,559 I will build1129 thee a house:1004 therefore5921 3651 hath thy servant5650 found4672 in853 his heart3820 to pray6419 853 this2063 prayer8605 unto413 thee.

28 「主耶和華啊,唯有你是神。你的話是真實的;你也應許將這福氣賜給[thy]僕人。

28 And now,6258 O Lord136 GOD,3069 thou859 art that1931 God,430 and thy words1697 be1961 true,571 and thou hast promised1696 853 this2063 goodness2896 unto413 thy servant: 5650

29 現在求你賜福與[thy]僕人的家,可以永存在你面前。主耶和華啊,這是你所應許的。願你永遠賜福與[thy]僕人的家。」

29 Therefore now6258 let it please2974 thee to bless1288 853 the house1004 of thy servant,5650 that it may continue1961 forever5769 before6440 thee: for3588 thou,859 O Lord136 GOD,3069 hast spoken1696 it: and with thy blessing4480 1293 let the house1004 of thy servant5650 be blessed1288 forever.5769
