1 In the third7969 year8141 of the reign4438 of Jehoiakim3079 king4428 of Judah3063 came935 Nebuchadnezzar5019 king4428 of Babylon894 unto Jerusalem,3389 and besieged6696 5921 it.
|
1 猶大王約雅敬在位第三年，巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒來到耶路撒冷，將城圍困。
|
|
2 And the Lord136 gave5414 853 Jehoiakim3079 king4428 of Judah3063 into his hand,3027 with part4480 7117 of the vessels3627 of the house1004 of God:430 which he carried into935 the land776 of Shinar8152 to the house1004 of his god;430 and he brought935 the vessels3627 into the treasure214 house1004 of his god.430
|
2 主將猶大王約雅敬，並神殿中器皿的幾分交付他手。他就把這器皿帶到示拿地，收入他神的廟裏，放在他神［god］的庫中。
|
|
3 And the king4428 spoke559 unto Ashpenaz828 the master7227 of his eunuchs,5631 that he should bring935 certain of the children4480 1121 of Israel,3478 and of the king's seed,4480 2233 4410 and of4480 the princes;6579
|
3 王曉諭［spake unto］太監長亞施毗拿，要他將［that he should］以色列人，並以色列王後裔［king's seed］和官長［princes］中帶進幾個人來；
|
|
4 Children3206 in whom834 was no369 3605 blemish,3971 but well favored,2896 4758 and skillful7919 in all3605 wisdom,2451 and cunning3045 in knowledge,1847 and understanding995 science,4093 and such834 as had ability3581 in them to stand5975 in the king's4428 palace,1964 and whom they might teach3925 the learning5612 and the tongue3956 of the Chaldeans.3778
|
4 就是年少沒有殘疾、相貌俊美、通達各樣學問、知識聰明俱備、足能侍立在王宮裏的，要教他們迦勒底的學問［learning］言語。
|
|
5 And the king4428 appointed4487 them a daily3117 3117 provision1697 of the king's meat,4480 6598 4428 and of the wine4480 3196 which he drank:4960 so nourishing1431 them three7969 years,8141 that at the end4480 7117 thereof they might stand5975 before6440 the king.4428
|
5 王派定將自己所用的膳和所飲的酒，每日賜他們一分，養他們三年。滿了三年，好叫他們在王面前侍立。
|
|
6 Now among these were1961 of the children4480 1121 of Judah,3063 Daniel,1840 Hananiah,2608 Mishael,4332 and Azariah: 5838
|
6 他們中間有猶大族的人：但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅。
|
|
7 Unto whom the prince8269 of the eunuchs5631 gave7760 names:8034 for he gave7760 unto Daniel1840 the name of Belteshazzar;1095 and to Hananiah,2608 of Shadrach;7714 and to Mishael,4332 of Meshach;4335 and to Azariah,5838 of Abed-nego.5664
|
7 太監長給他們起名：稱但以理為伯提沙撒，稱哈拿尼雅為沙得拉，稱米沙利為米煞，稱亞撒利雅為亞伯．尼歌。
|
|
8 But Daniel1840 purposed7760 in5921 his heart3820 that834 he would not3808 defile himself1351 with the portion of the king's meat,6598 4428 nor with the wine3196 which he drank:4960 therefore he requested1245 of the prince4480 8269 of the eunuchs5631 that834 he might not3808 defile himself.1351
|
8 但以理卻立志不以王的膳和王所飲的酒玷污自己，所以求太監長容他不玷污自己。
|
|
9 Now God430 had brought5414 853 Daniel1840 into favor2617 and tender love7356 with6440 the prince8269 of the eunuchs.5631
|
9 神使但以理在太監長眼前蒙恩惠，受憐愛［tender love］。
|
|
10 And the prince8269 of the eunuchs5631 said559 unto Daniel,1840 I589 fear3372 853 my lord113 the king,4428 who834 hath appointed4487 853 your meat3978 and your drink:4960 for834 why4100 should he see7200 853 your faces6440 worse liking2196 than4480 the children3206 which834 are of your sort?1524 then shall ye make me endanger2325 853 my head7218 to the king.4428
|
10 太監長對但以理說：「我懼怕我主我王，他已經派定你們的飲食；倘若他見你們的面貌比與你們相類［are of your sort］的少年人肌瘦，怎麼好呢？這樣，你們就使我的頭在王那裏難保。」
|
|
11 Then said559 Daniel1840 to413 Melzar,4453 whom834 the prince8269 of the eunuchs5631 had set4487 over5921 Daniel,1840 Hananiah,2608 Mishael,4332 and Azariah,5838
|
11 但以理對太監長所派管理但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅的米撒［Melzar］說：
|
|
12 Prove5254 853 thy servants,5650 I beseech thee,4994 ten6235 days;3117 and let them give5414 us pulse2235 to eat,398 and water4325 to drink.8354
|
12 「求你試試僕人們十天，給我們豆子［pulse］吃，白水喝，
|
|
13 Then let our countenances4758 be looked upon7200 before6440 thee, and the countenance4758 of the children3206 that eat398 853 of the portion of the king's meat:6598 4428 and as834 thou seest,7200 deal6213 with5973 thy servants.5650
|
13 然後看看我們的面貌和用王膳那少年人的面貌，就照你所看的待僕人吧。」
|
|
14 So he consented8085 to them in this2088 matter,1697 and proved5254 them ten6235 days.3117
|
14 他［he］便允准他們這件事，試看他們十天。
|
|
15 And at the end4480 7117 of ten6235 days3117 their countenances4758 appeared7200 fairer2896 and fatter1277 in flesh1320 than4480 all3605 the children3206 which did eat398 853 the portion of the king's meat.6598 4428
|
15 過了十天，見他們的面貌比用王膳的一切少年人更加俊美肥胖。
|
|
16 Thus Melzar4453 took away5375 853 the portion of their meat,6598 and the wine3196 that they should drink;4960 and gave5414 them pulse.2235
|
16 於是米撒［Melzar］撤去派他們用的膳，飲的酒，給他們豆子［pulse］吃。
|
|
17 As for these428 four702 children,3206 God430 gave5414 them knowledge4093 and skill7919 in all3605 learning5612 and wisdom:2451 and Daniel1840 had understanding995 in all3605 visions2377 and dreams.2472
|
17 這四個少年人，神在各樣學問智慧［learning and wisdom］上賜給他們聰明知識；但以理又明白各樣的異象和夢兆。
|
|
18 Now at the end4480 7117 of the days3117 that834 the king4428 had said559 he should bring them in,935 then the prince8269 of the eunuchs5631 brought them in935 before6440 Nebuchadnezzar.5019
|
18 尼布甲尼撒王曾曉諭要［had said he should］帶進少年人來的日期滿了，太監長就把他們帶到王面前。
|
|
19 And the king4428 communed1696 with854 them; and among them all4480 3605 was found4672 none3808 like Daniel,1840 Hananiah,2608 Mishael,4332 and Azariah:5838 therefore stood5975 they before6440 the king.4428
|
19 王與他們談論，見少年人中無一人能比但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亞撒利雅，所以留他們在王面前侍立。
|
|
20 And in all3605 matters1697 of wisdom2451 and understanding,998 that834 the king4428 inquired1245 of4480 them, he found4672 them ten6235 times3027 better than5921 all3605 the magicians2748 and astrologers825 that834 were in all3605 his realm.4438
|
20 王考問他們一切事，就見他們的智慧聰明比通國的術士和觀天象的［astrologers］勝過十倍。
|
|
21 And Daniel1840 continued1961 even unto5704 the first259 year8141 of king4428 Cyrus.3566
|
21 到塞魯士王元年，但以理還在。
