撒母耳记下 23
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
大卫的遗言
23 以下是大卫末了的话：
“耶西的儿子大卫的宣告，
被高举的人的宣告。
大卫是雅各的 神所膏立的，
是以色列美妙的诗人。
2 耶和华的灵借着我说话，
他的话在我的舌头上。
3 以色列的 神说，
以色列的盘石告诉我：
那以公义统治人的，
那存敬畏 神的心施行统治的，
4 他必像旭日升起的光芒，
像无云的早晨，
像雨后的晴朗，
使地长出绿草。
5 我的家在 神面前不是这样吗？
他与我立了永远的约；
这约安排了一切，稳固妥当。
我的一切救恩、一切愿望，
他不都成全吗？
6 流氓却像荆棘被丢弃，
人不敢用手拿它。
7 人要碰它，
必须带备铁器和枪杆，
他们要在原地被火彻底烧毁。”
大卫的勇士(A)
8 以下是大卫勇士的名字：他革扪人约设．巴设，是军官（“军官”或译：“三勇士”）的首领，又称为伊斯尼人亚底挪。他曾在一次战役中杀死了八百人。
9 其次是亚合人朵多的儿子以利亚撒。从前非利士人在巴斯达闵聚集要争战，与大卫一同去向他们骂阵的三个勇士，其中之一就是以利亚撒；那时以色列人向上撤退， 10 他却起来，击杀非利士人，直到他的手疲乏无力，紧贴在刀把上。那一天耶和华使以色列人获得了大胜利。众人转到以利亚撒后面，只顾剥夺死者的财物。
11 再其次是哈拉人亚基的儿子沙玛。非利士人聚集在利希，那里有一块田地长满了红豆，众人都从非利士人面前逃走。 12 沙玛却在那块田中间站稳脚步，保护了那块田，又击杀了非利士人。耶和华又使以色列人获得了大胜利。
13 收割的时候，三十个首领中有三个人下到亚杜兰洞那里去见大卫；有一队非利士人在利乏音谷安营。 14 那时大卫在山寨中，非利士人的驻军却在伯利恒。 15 大卫渴望说：“但愿有人把伯利恒城门旁边井里的水拿来给我喝！” 16 那三个勇士就闯过非利士人的营地，从伯利恒城门旁边的井里打水，把水取上来，带到大卫那里。大卫不肯喝，却把水浇奠在耶和华面前。 17 大卫说：“耶和华啊！我绝对不可作这事。这三个人冒着生命危险去打水，这水不是他们的血吗？”因此大卫不肯喝那水。这些是那三个勇士所作的事。
18 洗鲁雅的儿子约押的兄弟亚比筛是三十勇士（按照《马索拉文本》，“三十勇士”作“三勇士”；现参照其他抄本和《叙利亚译本》翻译）的首领。他曾挥舞矛枪杀死了三百人，因此他与“三勇士”齐名。 19 他的荣誉比那“三十勇士”高（《马索拉文本》作“他不是在‘三勇士’中最尊贵吗？”；现参照《七十士译本》翻译），所以成为他们的领袖；不过，却不及“三勇士”。
20 甲薛人耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅，是一个力气很大的人，作过许多大事。他曾经击杀了摩押人的两个勇将；又在下雪的时候，下到坑里去击杀了一只狮子。 21 他还击杀了一个体格高大的埃及人。这埃及人手里有矛，比拿雅只拿着棍子下去与他对抗；结果他把埃及人手中的矛枪夺了过来，用那矛枪杀死他。 22 这些是耶何耶大的儿子比拿雅所作的事。他与“三勇士”齐名。 23 他的荣誉比那“三十勇士”高，不过，却不及“三勇士”。大卫立他作侍卫长。
24 三十个勇士中有约押的兄弟亚撒黑、伯利恒人朵多的儿子伊勒哈难、 25 哈律人沙玛、哈律人以利加、 26 帕勒提人希利斯、提哥亚人益吉的儿子以拉、 27 亚拿突人亚比以谢、户沙人米本乃、 28 亚合人撒门、尼陀法人玛哈莱、 29 尼陀法人巴拿的儿子希立、便雅悯子孙基比亚人利拜的儿子以太、 30 比拉顿人比拿雅、迦实溪人希太、 31 伯．亚拉巴人亚比亚本、巴鲁米人押斯玛弗、 32 沙本人以利雅哈巴、雅善的儿子约拿单、 33 哈拉人沙玛、哈拉人沙拉的儿子亚希暗、 34 玛迦人亚哈拜的儿子以利法列、基罗人亚希多弗的儿子以连、 35 迦密人希斯莱、亚巴人帕莱、 36 琐巴人拿单的儿子以申、迦得人巴尼、 37 亚扪人洗勒、比录人拿哈莱（拿哈莱是给洗鲁雅的儿子约押拿兵器的）、 38 以帖人以拉、以帖人迦立、 39 赫人乌利亚，共有三十七人。
2 Samuel 23
Modern English Version
David’s Last Words
23 Now these are the last words of David:
The oracle of David the son of Jesse,
the oracle of the man who was raised on high,
the anointed of the God of Jacob,
and the favorite psalmist of Israel:
2 The Spirit of the Lord spoke by me,
and His word was on my tongue.
3 The God of Israel said,
the Rock of Israel spoke to me:
He who rules over man justly,
who rules in the fear of God,
4 is like the light of the morning when the sun rises,
a morning with no clouds,
gleaming after the rain
like grass from the land.
5 Is not my house like this with God?
For He made an everlasting covenant with me,
ordered in all things and secure.
For this is all my salvation and all my desire;
will He not make it flourish?
6 But the worthless individual is like a thorn tossed away, all of them,
for they cannot be taken with the hand.
7 But the man who touches them
must have an iron implement and the shaft of a spear,
and they must be burned with fire on the spot.
David’s Mighty Warriors(A)
8 These are the names of the warriors whom David had:
Josheb-Basshebeth, a Tahkemonite, was head of the three.[a] He was also known as Adino the Eznite, on account of eight hundred slain on one occasion.
9 After him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of Ahohi. He was among the three warriors with David when they defied the Philistines who were gathered together there to fight when the men of Israel withdrew. 10 He arose and attacked the Philistines until his hand grew weary and stuck to the sword. The Lord brought about a great victory that day, and the people returned only to plunder.
11 After him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. The Philistines had gathered into a troop, where the plot of the field was full of lentils, and the people fled before the Philistines. 12 He took his stand in the midst of the plot of land, defended it, and defeated the Philistines. The Lord brought about a great victory.
13 Then three[b] of the thirty chief men went down and came to David at the cave of Adullam during the harvest. Now the Philistine army was in the Valley of Rephaim. 14 At that time, David was in the stronghold while the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem. 15 David said longingly, “O that someone would give me a drink of water from the well in Bethlehem by the gate!” 16 The three warriors breached the Philistine camp and drew up water from the well in Bethlehem by the gate, and they brought it to David. However, he was not willing to drink it, so he poured it out as a drink offering to the Lord. 17 He said, “Far be it from me, O Lord, to drink this, the blood of the men who risked their lives.” So he was not willing to drink it.
These things the three warriors did.
18 Now Abishai, the brother of Joab and son of Zeruiah, was chief of the thirty.[c] He wielded his spear against three hundred men and killed them, and won a name beside the three. 19 Was he more honored than the three? He became their commander, but he did not attain to the three.
20 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done great acts. He struck down two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day. 21 He struck down an Egyptian, an impressive man. Now the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but Benaiah went down to him with a staff, seized the spear from the Egyptian, and killed him with his own spear. 22 These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did and won for himself a name alongside the three. 23 He was more honored than the thirty, but he did not attain to the three. So David set him over his bodyguard.
24 Among the thirty were
Asahel the brother of Joab,
Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
25 Shammah the Harodite,
Elika the Harodite,
26 Helez the Paltite,
Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite,
27 Abiezer the Anathothite,
Mebunnai the Hushathite,
28 Zalmon the Ahohite,
Maharai the Netophathite,
29 Heled the son of Baanah the Netophathite,
Ithai the son of Ribai from Gibeah of Benjamin,
30 Benaiah the Pirathonite,
Hiddai from the brooks of Gaash,
31 Abi-Albon the Arbathite,
Azmaveth the Barhumite,
32 Eliahba the Shaalbonite,
of the sons of Jashen,
Jonathan,
33 Shammah the Hararite,
Ahiam the son of Sharar the Hararite,
34 Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maakathite,
Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite,
35 Hezro the Carmelite,
Paarai the Arbite,
36 Igal the son of Nathan from Zobah,
the son of Hagri,
37 Zelek the Ammonite,
Naharai the Beerothite, the armor bearer of Joab the son of Zeruiah,
38 Ira the Ithrite,
Gareb the Ithrite,
39 and Uriah the Hittite.
There were thirty-seven in all.
