1 And again3254 the anger639 of the LORD3068 was kindled2734 against Israel,3478 and he moved5496 853 David1732 against them to say,559 Go,1980 number4487 853 Israel3478 and Judah.3063
|
1 耶和華又向以色列［Israel］發怒，就激動大衛對他們說［against them to say］：去數點以色列［Israel］和猶大［Judah］。
|
|
2 For the king4428 said559 to413 Joab3097 the captain8269 of the host,2428 which834 was with854 him, Go7751 now4994 through all3605 the tribes7626 of Israel,3478 from Dan4480 1835 even to5704 Beer-sheba,884 and number6485 ye853 the people,5971 that I may know3045 853 the number4557 of the people.5971
|
2 大衛就對［said to］跟隨他的元帥約押說：「你去走遍以色列眾支派，從但直到別．是巴，你們［ye］數點百姓，我好知道百姓［people］的數目。」
|
|
3 And Joab3097 said559 unto413 the king,4428 Now the LORD3068 thy God430 add3254 unto413 the people,5971 how many soever they be1992 1992 a hundredfold,3967 6471 and that the eyes5869 of my lord113 the king4428 may see7200 it: but why4100 doth my lord113 the king4428 delight2654 in this2088 thing?1697
|
3 約押對王說：「無論百姓多少，願耶和華─你的神再加增百倍，使我主我王親眼得見。我主我王何必喜悅行這事呢？」
|
|
4 Notwithstanding the king's4428 word1697 prevailed2388 against413 Joab,3097 and against5921 the captains8269 of the host.2428 And Joab3097 and the captains8269 of the host2428 went out3318 from the presence6440 of the king,4428 to number6485 853 the people5971 of Israel.3478
|
4 雖是如此［Notwithstanding］，王的命令勝過約押和眾軍長。約押和眾軍長就從王面前出去，數點以色列的百姓。
|
|
5 And they passed over5674 853 Jordan,3383 and pitched2583 in Aroer,6177 on the right side3225 of the city5892 that834 lieth in the midst8432 of the river5158 of Gad,1410 and toward413 Jazer: 3270
|
5 他們過了約旦河，在迦得河［river］中、城的右邊亞羅珥安營，與雅謝相對，
|
|
6 Then they came935 to Gilead,1568 and to413 the land776 of Tahtim-hodshi;8483 and they came935 to Dan-jaan,1842 and about5439 to413 Zidon,6721
|
6 又到了基列和他停．合示地，又到了但．雅安，繞到西頓，
|
|
7 And came935 to the stronghold4013 of Tyre,6865 and to all3605 the cities5892 of the Hivites,2340 and of the Canaanites:3669 and they went out3318 to413 the south5045 of Judah,3063 even to Beer-sheba.884
|
7 來到推羅的保障，並希未人和迦南人的各城，又到猶大南方的別．是巴。
|
|
8 So when they had gone7751 through all3605 the land,776 they came935 to Jerusalem3389 at the end4480 7097 of nine8672 months2320 and twenty6242 days.3117
|
8 他們走遍全地，過了九個月零二十天，就回到耶路撒冷。
|
|
9 And Joab3097 gave up5414 853 the sum4557 of the number4662 of the people5971 unto413 the king:4428 and there were1961 in Israel3478 eight8083 hundred3967 thousand505 valiant2428 men376 that drew8025 the sword;2719 and the men376 of Judah3063 were five2568 hundred3967 thousand505 men.376
|
9 約押將百姓的總數奏告於王：以色列拿刀的勇士有八十萬；猶大有五十萬。
|
|
10 And David's1732 heart3820 smote5221 him after310 that3651 he had numbered5608 853 the people.5971 And David1732 said559 unto413 the LORD,3068 I have sinned2398 greatly3966 in that834 I have done:6213 and now,6258 I beseech thee,4994 O LORD,3068 take away5674 853 the iniquity5771 of thy servant;5650 for3588 I have done very3966 foolishly.5528
|
10 大衛數點百姓以後，就心中自責，禱告耶和華說：「我行了［done］這事大有罪了。耶和華啊，現在［now］求你除掉你［thy］僕人的罪孽，因我所行的甚是愚昧。」
|
|
11 For when David1732 was up6965 in the morning,1242 the word1697 of the LORD3068 came1961 unto413 the prophet5030 Gad,1410 David's1732 seer,2374 saying,559
|
11 大衛早晨起來，耶和華的話臨到先知迦得，就是大衛的先見，說：
|
|
12 Go1980 and say559 unto413 David,1732 Thus3541 saith1696 the LORD,3068 I595 offer5190 5921 thee three7969 things; choose977 thee one259 of4480 them, that I may do6213 it unto thee.
|
12 「你去告訴大衛，說耶和華如此說：『我有三樣災，隨你選擇一樣，我好降與你。』」
|
|
13 So Gad1410 came935 to413 David,1732 and told5046 him, and said559 unto him, Shall seven7651 years8141 of famine7458 come935 unto thee in thy land?776 or518 wilt thou flee5127 three7969 months2320 before6440 thine enemies,6862 while they1931 pursue7291 thee? or518 that there be1961 three7969 days'3117 pestilence1698 in thy land?776 now6258 advise,3045 and see7200 what4100 answer1697 I shall return7725 to him that sent7971 me.
|
13 於是迦得來見大衛，對他說：「你願意國中有七年的饑荒呢？是在你敵人面前逃跑，被追趕三個月呢？是在你國中有三日的瘟疫呢？現在你要揣摩思想，我好回覆那差我來的。」
|
|
14 And David1732 said559 unto413 Gad,1410 I am in a great3966 strait:6862 let us fall5307 now4994 into the hand3027 of the LORD;3068 for3588 his mercies7356 are great:7227 and let me not408 fall5307 into the hand3027 of man.120
|
14 大衛對迦得說：「我甚為難；我們［us］願落在耶和華的手裏，因為他有豐盛的憐憫；我不願落在人的手裏。」
|
|
15 So the LORD3068 sent5414 a pestilence1698 upon Israel3478 from the morning1242 even to5704 the time6256 appointed:4150 and there died4191 of4480 the people5971 from Dan4480 1835 even to5704 Beer-sheba884 seventy7657 thousand505 men.376
|
15 於是，耶和華降瘟疫與以色列［Israel］，自早晨到所定的時候；從但直到別．是巴，民間死了七萬人。
|
|
16 And when the angel4397 stretched out7971 his hand3027 upon Jerusalem3389 to destroy7843 it, the LORD3068 repented him5162 of413 the evil,7451 and said559 to the angel4397 that destroyed7843 the people,5971 It is enough:7227 stay7503 now6258 thine hand.3027 And the angel4397 of the LORD3068 was1961 by5973 the threshingplace1637 of Araunah728 the Jebusite.2983
|
16 天使向耶路撒冷伸手要滅城的時候，耶和華後悔，就不降這災了，便對［and said to］滅民的天使說：「夠了。你［thine］住手吧。」那時耶和華的天使［angel］在耶布斯人亞勞拿的禾場旁邊［by］。
|
|
17 And David1732 spoke559 unto413 the LORD3068 when he saw7200 853 the angel4397 that smote5221 the people,5971 and said,559 Lo,2009 I595 have sinned,2398 and I595 have done wickedly:5753 but these428 sheep,6629 what4100 have they done?6213 let thine hand,3027 I pray thee,4994 be1961 against me, and against my father's1 house.1004
|
17 大衛看見滅民的天使，就禱告耶和華說：「我犯了罪，行了惡；但這群羊作了甚麼呢？願你的手攻擊我和我的父家。」
|
|
18 And Gad1410 came935 that1931 day3117 to413 David,1732 and said559 unto him, Go up,5927 rear6965 an altar4196 unto the LORD3068 in the threshingfloor1637 of Araunah728 the Jebusite.2983
|
18 當日，迦得來見大衛，對他說：「你上去，在耶布斯人亞勞拿的禾場上為耶和華築一座壇。」
|
|
19 And David,1732 according to the saying1697 of Gad,1410 went up5927 as834 the LORD3068 commanded.6680
|
19 大衛就照著迦得奉耶和華名所說的話上去了。
|
|
20 And Araunah728 looked,8259 and saw7200 853 the king4428 and his servants5650 coming on5674 toward5921 him: and Araunah728 went out,3318 and bowed himself7812 before the king4428 on his face639 upon the ground.776
|
20 亞勞拿觀看，見王和他臣僕前來，就迎接出去，臉伏於地，向王下拜。
|
|
21 And Araunah728 said,559 Wherefore4069 is my lord113 the king4428 come935 to413 his servant?5650 And David1732 said,559 To buy7069 853 the threshingfloor1637 of4480 5973 thee, to build1129 an altar4196 unto the LORD,3068 that the plague4046 may be stayed6113 from4480 5921 the people.5971
|
21 說：「我主我王為何來到僕人這裏呢？」大衛說：「我要買你這禾場，為耶和華築一座壇，使民間的瘟疫止住。」
|
|
22 And Araunah728 said559 unto413 David,1732 Let my lord113 the king4428 take3947 and offer up5927 what seemeth good2896 unto him:5869 behold,7200 here be oxen1241 for burnt sacrifice,5930 and threshing instruments4173 and other instruments3627 of the oxen1241 for wood.6086
|
22 亞勞拿對大衛說：「我主我王，你喜悅用甚麼，就拿去獻祭。看哪，這裏有牛可以作燔祭，有打糧的器具和套牛的軛可以當柴燒。
|
|
23 All3605 these things did Araunah,728 as a king,4428 give5414 unto413 the king.4428 And Araunah728 said559 unto the king,4428 The LORD3068 thy God430 accept7521 thee.
|
23 王啊，這一切，我亞勞拿都奉給你」；又對王說：「願耶和華─你的神悅納你。」
|
|
24 And the king4428 said559 unto413 Araunah,728 Nay;3808 but3588 I will surely buy7069 7069 it of4480 854 thee at a price:4242 neither3808 will I offer5927 burnt offerings5930 unto the LORD3068 my God430 of that which834 doth cost me nothing.2600 So David1732 bought7069 853 the threshingfloor1637 and the oxen1241 for fifty2572 shekels8255 of silver.3701
|
24 王對亞勞拿說：「不然。我必要按著價值向你買；我不肯用白得之物作燔祭獻給耶和華─我的神。」大衛就用五十舍客勒銀子買了那禾場與牛。
|
|
25 And David1732 built1129 there8033 an altar4196 unto the LORD,3068 and offered5927 burnt offerings5930 and peace offerings.8002 So the LORD3068 was entreated6279 for the land,776 and the plague4046 was stayed6113 from4480 5921 Israel.3478
|
25 大衛在那裏為耶和華築了一座壇，獻燔祭和平安祭。如此，耶和華垂聽國民所求的，瘟疫在以色列［Israel］中就止住了。
