列王纪下 7
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
7 以利沙说：“你们要听耶和华的话，耶和华如此说：明日约这时候，在撒玛利亚城门口，一细亚细面只卖一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也卖一舍客勒。” 2 有一个搀扶王的军官回答神人说：“看哪，即使耶和华打开天上的窗户，也不可能有这事。”以利沙说：“看哪，你必亲眼看见，在那里却吃不到什么。”
亚兰军队弃营逃命
3 在城门口有四个长麻风的人，他们彼此说：“我们为何坐在这里等死呢？ 4 我们若说要进城去，城里有饥荒，我们必死在那里。若我们在这里坐着不动，也必死。现在，来吧，我们去向亚兰人的军队投降。若他们饶我们的命，我们就活着；若杀我们，我们就死吧！” 5 黄昏的时候，他们起来往亚兰人的军营去；到了营边，看哪，没有一人在那里。 6 因为主使亚兰人的军队听见战车战马的声音，大军的声音，他们就彼此说：“看哪，这必是以色列王雇用赫人诸王和埃及诸王来攻击我们。” 7 所以，在黄昏的时候他们起来逃跑，撇下帐棚、马、驴，把军营留在原处，只顾逃命。 8 那些长麻风的人到了营边，进了一座帐棚，吃了喝了，从当中拿走金银和衣服，收藏起来。他们又回来，进了另一座帐棚，从当中拿走财物去收藏。
9 那时，他们彼此说：“我们所做的不对了！这一天是有好消息的日子，我们竟不作声！若等到天亮，我们就有罪了。现在，来，我们去向王室报信吧！” 10 他们就去叫守城门的人，告诉他们说：“我们到了亚兰人的军营，看哪，没有一人在那里，也无人声，只有拴着的马和驴，帐棚都留在原处。” 11 守城门的人就呼叫，他们向城内的王室报信。 12 王夜间起来，对臣仆说：“我告诉你们亚兰人向我们做的事。他们知道我们饥饿，所以离营，埋伏在田野，说：‘以色列人出城的时候，我们活捉他们，我们就可以进到城里去。’” 13 王的一个臣仆回答说：“不如叫人从城里剩下的马中取五匹，看哪，这些马像以色列大众一样[a]，快要灭亡了；我们派人去窥探吧！” 14 于是他们取了两辆车和马，王派人去跟踪亚兰人的军队，说：“你们去窥探吧。” 15 他们去跟踪亚兰人，直到约旦河。看哪，整条路上都是亚兰人匆忙逃跑时所丢弃的衣服和器具，使者就回来向王报告。
16 百姓就出去，掳掠亚兰人的军营。于是一细亚细面只卖一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也卖一舍客勒，正如耶和华所说的。 17 王派搀扶他的那军官在城门指挥，百姓在城门把他踩死了，正如神人在王下到他那里的时候所说的。 18 神人曾对王说：“明日约这时候，在撒玛利亚城门口，二细亚大麦只卖一舍客勒，一细亚细面也卖一舍客勒。” 19 那军官回答神人说：“看哪，即使耶和华打开天上的窗户，也不可能有这事。”神人说：“看哪，你必亲眼看见，在那里却吃不到什么。” 20 这话果然应验在他身上，因为百姓在城门把他踩死了。

2 Kings 7
King James Version
7 Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the Lord; Thus saith the Lord, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.
2 Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the Lord would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?
4 If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die.
5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there.
6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.
7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.
8 And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it.
9 Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.
10 So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were.
11 And he called the porters; and they told it to the king's house within.
12 And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city.
13 And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of the Israelites that are consumed:) and let us send and see.
14 They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.
15 And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.
16 And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord.
17 And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.
18 And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:
19 And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the Lord should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.
20 And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.

7 以利沙说：“你们要听耶和华的话，耶和华说，‘明天这个时候，在撒玛利亚城门口，三公斤细面粉只卖十一克银子，六公斤大麦也卖十一克银子。’” 2 一个搀扶王的将领对上帝的仆人说：“即使耶和华打开天上的窗户，也不可能发生这样的事！”以利沙说：“你必亲眼看见，却吃不到。”
撒玛利亚城获救
3 城门口有四个麻风病人，他们商量说：“我们为什么坐在这里等死呢？ 4 如果我们进城，城里正闹饥荒，我们会饿死；但我们坐在这里也是死，不如去投靠亚兰军。如果他们不杀我们，我们就能活命；如若不然，死就死吧！” 5 傍晚时分，他们动身去亚兰人的营地，到了营地外边，却发现人影全无。 6 原来，主使亚兰人听见大队人马和战车的声音。他们以为以色列王雇用了赫人的诸王和埃及人的诸王来攻营， 7 便在傍晚时分撇下帐篷、马和驴，弃营而逃。 8 那几个麻风病人到了营地，走进一个帐篷，又吃又喝，把那里的金银和衣服拿走收藏起来，再回来进入另一个帐篷，把财物拿走收藏起来。
9 后来，他们彼此说：“我们这样做不对。今天是个报好消息的日子，我们却不作声。若等到天亮，我们会受惩罚的。走，我们给王报信去。” 10 他们就去喊城门守卫，对他们说：“我们到了亚兰人的营中，里面不见人影也没有人声，只有拴着的马和驴，帐篷依然在那里。” 11 城门守卫就高声宣告消息，有人去禀告王。 12 王连夜起来，对臣仆说：“我告诉你们是怎么回事。亚兰人知道我们正闹饥荒，就故意离开军营，埋伏在田野，等我们以色列人出城后，好活捉我们，并攻入城中。”
13 一个臣仆说：“不如派人骑着城中仅存的五匹马出去打探一下。反正他们和城中剩下的以色列人一样快要死了。” 14 他们预备了两辆马车，王便命人出去追踪亚兰军、查明实情。 15 探子一路追到约旦河，沿路看见到处都是亚兰军仓皇逃走时丢弃的衣服和装备，便回去禀告王。 16 于是，民众出城抢掠亚兰人的营地。那时，三公斤细面粉只卖十一克银子，六公斤大麦也只卖十一克银子，正如耶和华所言。 17 王派那位搀扶他的将领守在城门口维持秩序，那将领却被涌出的人群踩死，应验了上帝的仆人在王去见他时所说的话。 18 上帝的仆人曾对王说：“明天这个时候，在撒玛利亚城门口，三公斤细面粉只卖十一克银子，六公斤大麦也只卖十一克银子。”
19 但那将领对上帝的仆人说：“即使耶和华打开天上的窗户，也不可能发生这样的事！”上帝的仆人说：“你必亲眼看见，却吃不到。” 20 这话果然应验在他身上，他被人群踩死在城门口。
2 Kings 7
New King James Version
The Syrians Flee
7 Then Elisha said, “Hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord: (A)‘Tomorrow about this time a [a]seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, at the gate of Samaria.’ ”
2 (B)So an officer on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God and said, “Look, (C)if the Lord would make windows in heaven, could this thing be?”
And he said, “In fact, you shall see it with your eyes, but you shall not eat of it.”
The Syrians Flee
3 Now there were four leprous men (D)at the entrance of the gate; and they said to one another, “Why are we sitting here until we die? 4 If we say, ‘We will enter the city,’ the famine is in the city, and we shall die there. And if we sit here, we die also. Now therefore, come, let us surrender to the (E)army of the Syrians. If they keep us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall only die.” 5 And they rose at twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians; and when they had come to the outskirts of the Syrian camp, to their surprise no one was there. 6 For the Lord had caused the army of the Syrians (F)to hear the noise of chariots and the noise of horses—the noise of a great army; so they said to one another, “Look, the king of Israel has hired against us (G)the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to attack us!” 7 Therefore they (H)arose and fled at twilight, and left the camp intact—their tents, their horses, and their donkeys—and they fled for their lives. 8 And when these lepers came to the outskirts of the camp, they went into one tent and ate and drank, and carried from it silver and gold and clothing, and went and hid them; then they came back and entered another tent, and carried some from there also, and went and hid it.
9 Then they said to one another, “We are not doing right. This day is a day of good news, and we remain silent. If we wait until morning light, some [b]punishment will come upon us. Now therefore, come, let us go and tell the king’s household.” 10 So they went and called to the gatekeepers of the city, and told them, saying, “We went to the Syrian camp, and surprisingly no one was there, not a human sound—only horses and donkeys tied, and the tents intact.” 11 And the gatekeepers called out, and they told it to the king’s household inside.
12 So the king arose in the night and said to his servants, “Let me now tell you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we are (I)hungry; therefore they have gone out of the camp to [c]hide themselves in the field, saying, ‘When they come out of the city, we shall catch them alive, and get into the city.’ ”
13 And one of his servants answered and said, “Please, let several men take five of the remaining horses which are left in the city. Look, they may either become like all the multitude of Israel that are left in it; or indeed, I say, they may become like all the multitude of Israel left from those who are consumed; so let us send them and see.” 14 Therefore they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent them in the direction of the Syrian army, saying, “Go and see.” 15 And they went after them to the Jordan; and indeed all the road was full of garments and weapons which the Syrians had thrown away in their haste. So the messengers returned and told the king. 16 Then the people went out and plundered the tents of the Syrians. So a seah of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, (J)according to the word of the Lord.
17 Now the king had appointed the officer on whose hand he leaned to have charge of the gate. But the people trampled him in the gate, and he died, just (K)as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him. 18 So it happened just as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, (L)“Two seahs of barley for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour for a shekel, shall be sold tomorrow about this time in the gate of Samaria.”
19 Then that officer had answered the man of God, and said, “Now look, if the Lord would make windows in heaven, could such a thing be?”
And he had said, “In fact, you shall see it with your eyes, but you shall not eat of it.” 20 And so it happened to him, for the people trampled him in the gate, and he died.
