撒母耳記上 29
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
非利士人不信任大衛
29 非利士人把全部軍隊聚集在亞弗，以色列軍則在耶斯列水泉旁紮營。 2 非利士首領統率以百人和千人為單位的士兵向前推進，大衛和他的部下跟著亞吉走在隊伍的後面。 3 非利士人的官長說：「這些希伯來人在這裡做什麽？」亞吉告訴他們說：「這是以色列王掃羅的臣僕大衛，他追隨我有一段日子了，自從他投奔我以來，我沒發現他有什麼過錯。」 4 他們卻生氣地說：「請送這個人回到你安置他的地方，他不可和我們一起去打仗，免得他在戰場上倒戈。他提著我們的腦袋去重投故主豈不是最好的方法嗎？ 5 以前婦女們跳舞歌唱『掃羅殺死千千，大衛殺死萬萬』，歌頌的不就是這個大衛嗎？」
6 亞吉便叫大衛過來，對他說：「我憑永活的耶和華起誓，你一向忠心耿耿，自從你投奔我以來，我沒發現你有什麼過錯，我很願意你與我一同作戰，只是眾首領不贊成。 7 你安心地回去吧，免得他們不悅。」 8 大衛說：「我究竟做錯了什麼？自從僕人投奔你以來，你發現僕人有什麼過錯？為什麼不讓我為我主我王殺敵呢？」 9 亞吉說：「你在我眼中就像上帝的天使一樣好，只是非利士眾官長反對你與我們一起出戰。 10 明天一早，你就和從掃羅手下投奔你的人啟程回去吧。」
11 於是，大衛和部下清早起來返回非利士，非利士軍則前往耶斯列。
1 Samuel 29
King James Version
29 Now the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek: and the Israelites pitched by a fountain which is in Jezreel.
2 And the lords of the Philistines passed on by hundreds, and by thousands: but David and his men passed on in the rereward with Achish.
3 Then said the princes of the Philistines, What do these Hebrews here? And Achish said unto the princes of the Philistines, Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, which hath been with me these days, or these years, and I have found no fault in him since he fell unto me unto this day?
4 And the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said unto him, Make this fellow return, that he may go again to his place which thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he be an adversary to us: for wherewith should he reconcile himself unto his master? should it not be with the heads of these men?
5 Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
6 Then Achish called David, and said unto him, Surely, as the Lord liveth, thou hast been upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the host is good in my sight: for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming unto me unto this day: nevertheless the lords favour thee not.
7 Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the Philistines.
8 And David said unto Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with thee unto this day, that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king?
9 And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou art good in my sight, as an angel of God: notwithstanding the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle.
10 Wherefore now rise up early in the morning with thy master's servants that are come with thee: and as soon as ye be up early in the morning, and have light, depart.
11 So David and his men rose up early to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
1 Samuel 29
New King James Version
The Philistines Reject David
29 Then (A)the Philistines gathered together all their armies (B)at Aphek, and the Israelites encamped by a fountain which is in Jezreel. 2 And the (C)lords of the Philistines [a]passed in review by hundreds and by thousands, but (D)David and his men passed in review at the rear with Achish. 3 Then the princes of the Philistines said, “What are these Hebrews doing here?”
And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, “Is this not David, the servant of Saul king of Israel, who has been with me (E)these days, or these years? And to this day I have (F)found no fault in him since he defected to me.”
4 But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; so the princes of the Philistines said to him, (G)“Make this fellow return, that he may go back to the place which you have appointed for him, and do not let him go down with us to (H)battle, lest (I)in the battle he become our adversary. For with what could he reconcile himself to his master, if not with the heads of these (J)men? 5 Is this not David, (K)of whom they sang to one another in dances, saying:
(L)‘Saul has slain his thousands,
And David his ten thousands’?”
6 Then Achish called David and said to him, “Surely, as the Lord lives, you have been upright, and (M)your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight. For to this day (N)I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me. Nevertheless the lords do not favor you. 7 Therefore return now, and go in peace, that you may not displease the lords of the Philistines.”
8 So David said to Achish, “But what have I done? And to this day what have you found in your servant as long as I have been with you, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?”
9 Then Achish answered and said to David, “I know that you are as good in my sight (O)as an angel of God; nevertheless (P)the princes of the Philistines have said, ‘He shall not go up with us to the battle.’ 10 Now therefore, rise early in the morning with your master’s servants (Q)who have come with [b]you. And as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart.”
11 So David and his men rose early to depart in the morning, to return to the land of the Philistines. (R)And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.
