與亞蘭人爭戰
20 亞蘭王便‧哈達召集他的全軍,率領三十二個王,帶着馬和戰車,上來圍困撒瑪利亞,要攻打它。 2 他派使者進城到以色列王亞哈那裏,對他說:「便‧哈達如此說: 3 『你的金銀都要歸我,你妻妾兒女中最美的也要歸我。』」 4 以色列王回答說:「我主我王啊,就照着你的話,我和我所有的都歸你。」 5 使者又來說:「便‧哈達如此說:『我已派人到你那裏,要你把你的金銀、妻妾、兒女都歸我。』 6 但明日約在這時候,我還要派臣僕到你那裏,搜查你的家和你僕人的家,你眼中一切所喜愛的都由他們的手拿走。」
7 以色列王召了國內所有的長老來,說:「你們要知道,看,這人是來找麻煩的!他派人到我這裏來,要我的妻妾、兒女和金銀,我並沒有拒絕他。」 8 所有的長老和眾百姓對王說:「不要聽從他,也不要答應他。」 9 以色列王對便‧哈達的使者說:「你們告訴我主我王說:『王頭一次派人向僕人所要的一切,僕人都依從,但這事我不能依從。』」使者就去回覆便‧哈達。 10 便‧哈達又派人到亞哈那裏,說:「撒瑪利亞的塵土若足夠跟從我的軍兵每人手拿一把,願神明重重懲罰我!」 11 以色列王回答說:「你們告訴他說,『剛束上腰帶的,不要像已卸下的那樣誇口。』」 12 便‧哈達和諸王正在帳幕裏喝酒,聽見這話,就對他臣僕說:「擺陣吧!」他們就擺陣攻城。
13 看哪,一個先知靠近以色列王亞哈,說:「耶和華如此說:『這一大羣人你看見了嗎?看哪,今日我必把他們交在你手裏,你就知道我是耶和華。』」 14 亞哈說:「藉着誰呢?」他說:「耶和華如此說:『藉着跟從省長的年輕人。』」亞哈說:「誰要開戰呢?」他說:「你!」 15 於是亞哈數點跟從省長的年輕人,共二百三十二名,然後又數點以色列的眾軍兵,共七千名。
16 中午,他們出了城;便‧哈達和幫助他的三十二個王正在帳幕裏暢飲。 17 跟從省長的年輕人先出城。便‧哈達派人去,他們回報說:「有人從撒瑪利亞出來了。」 18 他說:「他們若為求和出來,要活捉他們,若為打仗出來,也要活捉他們。」
19 跟從省長的年輕人,和跟隨他們的軍兵,都出了城, 20 各人遇見敵人就擊殺。亞蘭人逃跑,以色列人追趕他們;亞蘭王便‧哈達騎着馬和騎兵一同逃跑。 21 以色列王出城攻擊[a]馬和戰車,大大擊殺亞蘭人。
22 那先知靠近以色列王,對他說:「去吧,你當自強,看清楚,也要知道你所要做的事,因為再過一年,亞蘭王會上來攻擊你。」
亞蘭人第二次來犯
23 亞蘭王的臣僕對他說:「他們的神是山神,所以他們勝過我們。但在平原與他們打仗,我們一定勝過他們。 24 王當做這樣的事,把諸王革去,派軍官代替他們, 25 又照着王喪失軍兵的數目,再招募一支軍隊,馬補馬,車補車。然後在平原與他們打仗,我們一定勝過他們。」王就聽臣僕的話,照樣去做。
26 過了一年,便‧哈達果然召集亞蘭人上亞弗去,要與以色列人打仗。 27 以色列人也召集軍兵,預備食物,去迎戰亞蘭人。 以色列人對着他們安營,好像兩小羣的山羊;亞蘭人卻佈滿了地面。 28 有神人靠近,對以色列王說:「耶和華如此說:『亞蘭人既說我—耶和華是山神,不是平原之神,我必將這一大羣人全都交在你手中,你們就知道我是耶和華。』」 29 以色列人與亞蘭人相對安營七日,到第七日兩軍開戰。那一日以色列人殺了亞蘭的十萬步兵, 30 其餘的都逃向亞弗,到了城裏,城牆倒塌,壓死了剩下的二萬七千人。
便‧哈達也逃入城內,藏在嚴密的內室裏。 31 他的臣僕對他說:「看哪,我們聽說以色列家的王都是仁慈的王;讓我們腰束麻布,頭套繩索,出去到以色列王那裏,也許他會存留王的性命。」 32 於是他們腰束麻布,頭套繩索,來到以色列王那裏,說:「王的僕人便‧哈達說:『求王饒我一命。』」亞哈說:「他還活着嗎?他是我的兄弟。」 33 這些人正在探測吉凶,就立即抓住他的話說:「便‧哈達是王的兄弟!」王說:「你們去請他來。」便‧哈達出來到王那裏,王就請他上車。 34 便‧哈達對王說:「我父從你父那裏所奪的城鎮,我必歸還給你。你可以在大馬士革為你自己設立街市,像我父在撒瑪利亞所設立的一樣。」亞哈說:「我照此立約,放你回去。」王就與他立約,放了他。
先知責亞哈縱敵
35 有一個人是先知的門徒,遵照耶和華的話對他同伴說:「你打我吧!」那人不肯打他。 36 他就對那人說:「你既不聽從耶和華的話,看哪,你一離開我,必有獅子咬死你。」那人一離開他,果然遇見獅子,把他咬死了。 37 先知的門徒又遇見一個人,對他說:「你打我吧!」那人就打他,把他打傷。 38 那先知就去了,用頭巾蒙眼,改了裝,在路旁等候王。 39 王從那裏經過,他向王呼叫說:「僕人出戰的時候,看哪,有人轉過來,帶了一個人到我這裏來,說:『你要看守這人,若他真的失蹤了,你的性命必代替他的性命,否則,你就要交出一他連得銀子來。』 40 僕人正在到處忙碌的時候,那人就不見了。」以色列王對他說:「你自己決定了,就必照樣判你。」 41 他急忙除掉蒙眼的頭巾,以色列王就認出他是一個先知。 42 他對王說:「耶和華如此說:『因你把我決定要消滅的人從你手中放走,所以你的命必代替他的命,你的百姓必代替他的百姓。』」 43 於是以色列王生氣,憂悶地回撒瑪利亞,到自己的宮去了。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
亚兰王攻打撒玛利亚城
20 亚兰王便·哈达率领全军,联合三十二个王,带着车马围攻撒玛利亚。 2 他派遣使者进城对以色列王亚哈说: 3 “便·哈达说,‘你的金银和你家中最美的妻妾儿女都是我的。’” 4 以色列王说:“我主我王啊,我答应你的要求,我和我的一切都是你的。”
5 不久,使者又来对他说:“便·哈达说,‘我已派人吩咐你把金银、妻妾和儿女都给我。 6 明天这个时候,我会派属下搜查你的王宫和你臣仆的家,他们要拿走你珍爱的一切。’” 7 以色列王亚哈召集国中的长老,说:“你们看,这人是在找麻烦。他派人来要我的妻妾、孩子和金银,我没有拒绝他。” 8 长老和百姓都说:“别听从他,别答应他。”
9 于是,他对使者说:“你们告诉我主我王,他第一次所要的,仆人可以照办,但这一次所要的,仆人不能从命。”使者就去回复便·哈达。 10 便·哈达又派人去对亚哈说:“若撒玛利亚的尘土够我的士兵每人抓一把,愿神明重重地惩罚我。” 11 以色列王说:“你去告诉便·哈达,叫他别刚穿上盔甲就夸口,打完仗卸下盔甲再夸口吧。” 12 便·哈达和诸王正在营中饮酒,听见这话,就吩咐属下准备攻城。
亚哈打败便·哈达
13 一位先知来见以色列王亚哈,说:“耶和华说,‘你看见这大队人马了吗?今天我必将他们交在你手里,这样你就知道我是耶和华。’” 14 亚哈问:“谁来完成这任务呢?”先知答道:“耶和华说,省长属下的青年军。”亚哈问:“谁来做统领呢?”先知答道:“你。”
15 于是,亚哈召集了省长属下的青年军二百三十二人,又召集以色列全军,共七千人。
16 中午,便·哈达正跟盟军的三十二个王在营中狂饮的时候,亚哈率军出发了。 17 省长属下的青年军率先出城。便·哈达派出的巡逻队禀告他说:“有人从撒玛利亚城出来了。” 18 便·哈达说:“不管他们是来求和还是求战,都要生擒他们!” 19 省长属下的青年军率先出城,大军紧随其后, 20 他们见敌人就杀。亚兰人败逃,以色列人乘势追击。亚兰王便·哈达骑着马与一些骑兵落荒而逃。 21 以色列王出城攻击敌军车马,重创亚兰人。
22 先知又来见以色列王,说:“你要加强防卫,做好准备,因为明年春天亚兰王必卷土重来。”
23 臣仆给亚兰王献计说:“以色列人的神是山神,所以他们占了上风,我们若在平原上跟他们交战,一定会取胜。 24 王应该撤去诸王,委任将领代替他们, 25 再招募军兵,补充失去的战车和人马,好在平原上跟他们交战,这样我们一定会取胜。”王采纳了他们的建议。
26 第二年春天,便·哈达召集亚兰人进军亚弗,攻打以色列人。 27 以色列人也召集军队,准备粮草,迎战敌军。他们在亚兰人对面安营,像两小群山羊,而敌军却满山遍野。 28 有位上帝的仆人来见以色列王,说:“耶和华说,‘亚兰人以为我耶和华是山神,不是平原的神,所以我必将这大队人马交在你手里,这样你们就知道我是耶和华。’”
29 以色列人和亚兰人两军对峙,一连七天。第七天,两军交战,以色列军一天杀了十万亚兰步兵, 30 残余的亚兰人都逃进亚弗城,但城墙倒塌压死了两万七千人。便·哈达也逃进城,躲在一间房子的内室里。 31 臣仆对他说:“我们听说以色列王很仁慈。现在,我们不如腰束麻布,头套绳索,向以色列王请降,或许他会饶王一命。” 32 他们便腰束麻布,头套绳索,来见以色列王,说:“仆人便·哈达求王开恩饶命啊!”亚哈回答说:“他还活着吗?他是我的兄弟。” 33 他们听见亚哈的口气温和,连忙附和说:“是啊,便·哈达是王的兄弟。”亚哈便吩咐他们去把便·哈达带来见他,然后让便·哈达登上他的战车。 34 便·哈达对亚哈说:“我必归还我父亲从你父亲那里夺来的城邑,你可以在大马士革设立贸易区,就像我父亲在撒玛利亚所设立的一样。”亚哈回答说:“你依此立个约,我就放你走。”立约之后,亚哈就放便·哈达走了。
先知责备亚哈
35 众先知中有一位奉耶和华的命令对他的同伴说:“你打我吧!”同伴却不肯动手。 36 那位先知就对他说:“既然你不听从耶和华的吩咐,你一离开我,就会被狮子咬死。”那同伴走后,果然遇见狮子,被咬死了。 37 那先知又找了一个人,叫那人打他,那人就打他,把他打伤了。 38 先知用头巾蒙着眼睛,乔装改扮,在路旁等候亚哈王。 39 亚哈王经过的时候,他向王喊道:“仆人在打仗的时候,有人押来一个俘虏,要我看管,他说如果俘虏跑掉,我就要以性命抵偿或赔偿三十四公斤银子。 40 可是那俘虏趁仆人忙乱之际跑掉了。”亚哈王说:“这是你自己的过失,你要自负其咎。” 41 先知立刻拿去蒙眼的头巾,以色列王认出他是个先知。 42 他对王说:“耶和华说,‘你放走了我决定要毁灭的人,所以你的命要抵他的命,你百姓的命要抵他百姓的命。’” 43 以色列王闷闷不乐地回撒玛利亚的王宫去了。
1 Kings 20
Revised Standard Version
Ahab’s Wars with the Arameans
20 Ben-ha′dad the king of Syria gathered all his army together; thirty-two kings were with him, and horses and chariots; and he went up and besieged Samar′ia, and fought against it. 2 And he sent messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel, and said to him, “Thus says Ben-ha′dad: 3 ‘Your silver and your gold are mine; your fairest wives and children also are mine.’” 4 And the king of Israel answered, “As you say, my lord, O king, I am yours, and all that I have.” 5 The messengers came again, and said, “Thus says Ben-ha′dad: ‘I sent to you, saying, “Deliver to me your silver and your gold, your wives and your children”; 6 nevertheless I will send my servants to you tomorrow about this time, and they shall search your house and the houses of your servants, and lay hands on whatever pleases them,[a] and take it away.’”
7 Then the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, “Mark, now, and see how this man is seeking trouble; for he sent to me for my wives and my children, and for my silver and my gold, and I did not refuse him.” 8 And all the elders and all the people said to him, “Do not heed or consent.” 9 So he said to the messengers of Ben-ha′dad, “Tell my lord the king, ‘All that you first demanded of your servant I will do; but this thing I cannot do.’” And the messengers departed and brought him word again. 10 Ben-ha′dad sent to him and said, “The gods do so to me and more also, if the dust of Samar′ia shall suffice for handfuls for all the people who follow me.” 11 And the king of Israel answered, “Tell him, ‘Let not him that girds on his armor boast himself as he that puts it off.’” 12 When Ben-ha′dad heard this message as he was drinking with the kings in the booths, he said to his men, “Take your positions.” And they took their positions against the city.
Prophetic Opposition to Ahab
13 And behold, a prophet came near to Ahab king of Israel and said, “Thus says the Lord, Have you seen all this great multitude? Behold, I will give it into your hand this day; and you shall know that I am the Lord.” 14 And Ahab said, “By whom?” He said, “Thus says the Lord, By the servants of the governors of the districts.” Then he said, “Who shall begin the battle?” He answered, “You.” 15 Then he mustered the servants of the governors of the districts, and they were two hundred and thirty-two; and after them he mustered all the people of Israel, seven thousand.
16 And they went out at noon, while Ben-ha′dad was drinking himself drunk in the booths, he and the thirty-two kings who helped him. 17 The servants of the governors of the districts went out first. And Ben-ha′dad sent out scouts, and they reported to him, “Men are coming out from Samar′ia.” 18 He said, “If they have come out for peace, take them alive; or if they have come out for war, take them alive.”
19 So these went out of the city, the servants of the governors of the districts, and the army which followed them. 20 And each killed his man; the Syrians fled and Israel pursued them, but Ben-ha′dad king of Syria escaped on a horse with horsemen. 21 And the king of Israel went out, and captured[b] the horses and chariots, and killed the Syrians with a great slaughter.
22 Then the prophet came near to the king of Israel, and said to him, “Come, strengthen yourself, and consider well what you have to do; for in the spring the king of Syria will come up against you.”
The Arameans Are Defeated
23 And the servants of the king of Syria said to him, “Their gods are gods of the hills, and so they were stronger than we; but let us fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they. 24 And do this: remove the kings, each from his post, and put commanders in their places; 25 and muster an army like the army that you have lost, horse for horse, and chariot for chariot; then we will fight against them in the plain, and surely we shall be stronger than they.” And he hearkened to their voice, and did so.
26 In the spring Ben-ha′dad mustered the Syrians, and went up to Aphek, to fight against Israel. 27 And the people of Israel were mustered, and were provisioned, and went against them; the people of Israel encamped before them like two little flocks of goats, but the Syrians filled the country. 28 And a man of God came near and said to the king of Israel, “Thus says the Lord, ‘Because the Syrians have said, “The Lord is a god of the hills but he is not a god of the valleys,” therefore I will give all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord.’” 29 And they encamped opposite one another seven days. Then on the seventh day the battle was joined; and the people of Israel smote of the Syrians a hundred thousand foot soldiers in one day. 30 And the rest fled into the city of Aphek; and the wall fell upon twenty-seven thousand men that were left.
Ben-ha′dad also fled, and entered an inner chamber in the city. 31 And his servants said to him, “Behold now, we have heard that the kings of the house of Israel are merciful kings; let us put sackcloth on our loins and ropes upon our heads, and go out to the king of Israel; perhaps he will spare your life.” 32 So they girded sackcloth on their loins, and put ropes on their heads, and went to the king of Israel and said, “Your servant Ben-ha′dad says, ‘Pray, let me live.’” And he said, “Does he still live? He is my brother.” 33 Now the men were watching for an omen, and they quickly took it up from him and said, “Yes, your brother Ben-ha′dad.” Then he said, “Go and bring him.” Then Ben-ha′dad came forth to him; and he caused him to come up into the chariot. 34 And Ben-ha′dad said to him, “The cities which my father took from your father I will restore; and you may establish bazaars for yourself in Damascus, as my father did in Samar′ia.” And Ahab said, “I will let you go on these terms.” So he made a covenant with him and let him go.
A Prophet Condemns Ahab
35 And a certain man of the sons of the prophets said to his fellow at the command of the Lord, “Strike me, I pray.” But the man refused to strike him. 36 Then he said to him, “Because you have not obeyed the voice of the Lord, behold, as soon as you have gone from me, a lion shall kill you.” And as soon as he had departed from him, a lion met him and killed him. 37 Then he found another man, and said, “Strike me, I pray.” And the man struck him, smiting and wounding him. 38 So the prophet departed, and waited for the king by the way, disguising himself with a bandage over his eyes. 39 And as the king passed, he cried to the king and said, “Your servant went out into the midst of the battle; and behold, a soldier turned and brought a man to me, and said, ‘Keep this man; if by any means he be missing, your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.’ 40 And as your servant was busy here and there, he was gone.” The king of Israel said to him, “So shall your judgment be; you yourself have decided it.” 41 Then he made haste to take the bandage away from his eyes; and the king of Israel recognized him as one of the prophets. 42 And he said to him, “Thus says the Lord, ‘Because you have let go out of your hand the man whom I had devoted to destruction, therefore your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people.’” 43 And the king of Israel went to his house resentful and sullen, and came to Samar′ia.

New International Version
Ben-Hadad Attacks Samaria
20 Now Ben-Hadad(A) king of Aram mustered his entire army. Accompanied by thirty-two kings with their horses and chariots, he went up and besieged Samaria(B) and attacked it. 2 He sent messengers into the city to Ahab king of Israel, saying, “This is what Ben-Hadad says: 3 ‘Your silver and gold are mine, and the best of your wives and children are mine.’”
4 The king of Israel answered, “Just as you say, my lord the king. I and all I have are yours.”
5 The messengers came again and said, “This is what Ben-Hadad says: ‘I sent to demand your silver and gold, your wives and your children. 6 But about this time tomorrow I am going to send my officials to search your palace and the houses of your officials. They will seize everything you value and carry it away.’”
7 The king of Israel summoned all the elders(C) of the land and said to them, “See how this man is looking for trouble!(D) When he sent for my wives and my children, my silver and my gold, I did not refuse him.”
8 The elders and the people all answered, “Don’t listen to him or agree to his demands.”
9 So he replied to Ben-Hadad’s messengers, “Tell my lord the king, ‘Your servant will do all you demanded the first time, but this demand I cannot meet.’” They left and took the answer back to Ben-Hadad.
10 Then Ben-Hadad sent another message to Ahab: “May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if enough dust(E) remains in Samaria to give each of my men a handful.”
11 The king of Israel answered, “Tell him: ‘One who puts on his armor should not boast(F) like one who takes it off.’”
12 Ben-Hadad heard this message while he and the kings were drinking(G) in their tents,[a] and he ordered his men: “Prepare to attack.” So they prepared to attack the city.
Ahab Defeats Ben-Hadad
13 Meanwhile a prophet(H) came to Ahab king of Israel and announced, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Do you see this vast army? I will give it into your hand today, and then you will know(I) that I am the Lord.’”
14 “But who will do this?” asked Ahab.
The prophet replied, “This is what the Lord says: ‘The junior officers under the provincial commanders will do it.’”
“And who will start(J) the battle?” he asked.
The prophet answered, “You will.”
15 So Ahab summoned the 232 junior officers under the provincial commanders. Then he assembled the rest of the Israelites, 7,000 in all. 16 They set out at noon while Ben-Hadad and the 32 kings allied with him were in their tents getting drunk.(K) 17 The junior officers under the provincial commanders went out first.
Now Ben-Hadad had dispatched scouts, who reported, “Men are advancing from Samaria.”
18 He said, “If they have come out for peace, take them alive; if they have come out for war, take them alive.”
19 The junior officers under the provincial commanders marched out of the city with the army behind them 20 and each one struck down his opponent. At that, the Arameans fled, with the Israelites in pursuit. But Ben-Hadad king of Aram escaped on horseback with some of his horsemen. 21 The king of Israel advanced and overpowered the horses and chariots and inflicted heavy losses on the Arameans.
22 Afterward, the prophet(L) came to the king of Israel and said, “Strengthen your position and see what must be done, because next spring(M) the king of Aram will attack you again.”
23 Meanwhile, the officials of the king of Aram advised him, “Their gods are gods(N) of the hills. That is why they were too strong for us. But if we fight them on the plains, surely we will be stronger than they. 24 Do this: Remove all the kings from their commands and replace them with other officers. 25 You must also raise an army like the one you lost—horse for horse and chariot for chariot—so we can fight Israel on the plains. Then surely we will be stronger than they.” He agreed with them and acted accordingly.
26 The next spring(O) Ben-Hadad mustered the Arameans and went up to Aphek(P) to fight against Israel. 27 When the Israelites were also mustered and given provisions, they marched out to meet them. The Israelites camped opposite them like two small flocks of goats, while the Arameans covered the countryside.(Q)
28 The man of God came up and told the king of Israel, “This is what the Lord says: ‘Because the Arameans think the Lord is a god of the hills and not a god(R) of the valleys, I will deliver this vast army into your hands, and you will know(S) that I am the Lord.’”
29 For seven days they camped opposite each other, and on the seventh day the battle was joined. The Israelites inflicted a hundred thousand casualties on the Aramean foot soldiers in one day. 30 The rest of them escaped to the city of Aphek,(T) where the wall collapsed(U) on twenty-seven thousand of them. And Ben-Hadad fled to the city and hid(V) in an inner room.
31 His officials said to him, “Look, we have heard that the kings of Israel are merciful.(W) Let us go to the king of Israel with sackcloth(X) around our waists and ropes around our heads. Perhaps he will spare your life.”
32 Wearing sackcloth around their waists and ropes around their heads, they went to the king of Israel and said, “Your servant Ben-Hadad says: ‘Please let me live.’”
The king answered, “Is he still alive? He is my brother.”
33 The men took this as a good sign and were quick to pick up his word. “Yes, your brother Ben-Hadad!” they said.
“Go and get him,” the king said. When Ben-Hadad came out, Ahab had him come up into his chariot.
34 “I will return the cities(Y) my father took from your father,” Ben-Hadad(Z) offered. “You may set up your own market areas(AA) in Damascus,(AB) as my father did in Samaria.”
Ahab said, “On the basis of a treaty(AC) I will set you free.” So he made a treaty with him, and let him go.
A Prophet Condemns Ahab
35 By the word of the Lord one of the company of the prophets(AD) said to his companion, “Strike me with your weapon,” but he refused.(AE)
36 So the prophet said, “Because you have not obeyed the Lord, as soon as you leave me a lion(AF) will kill you.” And after the man went away, a lion found him and killed him.
37 The prophet found another man and said, “Strike me, please.” So the man struck him and wounded him. 38 Then the prophet went and stood by the road waiting for the king. He disguised himself with his headband down over his eyes. 39 As the king passed by, the prophet called out to him, “Your servant went into the thick of the battle, and someone came to me with a captive and said, ‘Guard this man. If he is missing, it will be your life for his life,(AG) or you must pay a talent[b] of silver.’ 40 While your servant was busy here and there, the man disappeared.”
“That is your sentence,”(AH) the king of Israel said. “You have pronounced it yourself.”
41 Then the prophet quickly removed the headband from his eyes, and the king of Israel recognized him as one of the prophets. 42 He said to the king, “This is what the Lord says: ‘You(AI) have set free a man I had determined should die.[c](AJ) Therefore it is your life for his life,(AK) your people for his people.’” 43 Sullen and angry,(AL) the king of Israel went to his palace in Samaria.
