旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 1 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

1:1 亚哈死后，摩押背叛以色列。

Then Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.

1:2 亚哈谢在撒马利亚，一日从楼上的栏杆里掉下来，就病了。于是差遣使者说，你们去问以革伦的神巴力西卜，我这病能好不能好。

And Ahaziah fell down through a lattice in his upper chamber that was in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, and said unto them, Go, enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron whether I shall recover of this disease.

1:3 但耶和华的使者对提斯比人以利亚说，你起来，去迎着撒马利亚王的使者，对他们说，你们去问以革伦神巴力西卜，岂因以色列中没有神吗。

But the angel of the LORD said to Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, go up to meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron?

1:4 所以耶和华如此说，你必不下你所上的床，必定要死。以利亚就去了。

Now therefore thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die. And Elijah departed.

1:5 使者回来见王，王问他们说，你们为什么回来呢。

And when the messengers turned back unto him, he said unto them, Why are ye now turned back?

1:6 使者回答说，有一个人迎着我们来，对我们说，你们回去见差你们来的王，对他说，耶和华如此说，你差人去问以革伦神巴力西卜，岂因以色列中没有神吗。所以你必不下所上的床，必定要死。

And they said unto him, There came a man up to meet us, and said unto us, Go, turn again unto the king that sent you, and say unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that thou sendest to enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron? therefore thou shalt not come down from that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.

1:7 王问他们说，迎着你们来告诉你们这话的，是怎样的人。

And he said unto them, What manner of man was he which came up to meet you, and told you these words?

1:8 回答说，他身穿毛衣，腰束皮带。王说，这必是提斯比人以利亚。

And they answered him, He was an hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather about his loins. And he said, It is Elijah the Tishbite.

1:9 于是，王差遣五十夫长，带领五十人去见以利亚，他就上到以利亚那里。以利亚正坐在山顶上。五十夫长对他说，神人哪，王吩咐你下来。

Then the king sent unto him a captain of fifty with his fifty. And he went up to him: and, behold, he sat on the top of an hill. And he spake unto him, Thou man of God, the king hath said, Come down.

1:10 以利亚回答说，我若是神人，愿火从天上降下来，烧灭你和你那五十人。于是有火从天上降下来，烧灭五十夫长和他那五十人。

And Elijah answered and said to the captain of fifty, If I be a man of God, then let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And there came down fire from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.

1:11 王第二次差遣一个五十夫长，带领五十人去见以利亚。五十夫长对以利亚说，神人哪，王吩咐你快快下来。

Again also he sent unto him another captain of fifty with his fifty. And he answered and said unto him, O man of God, thus hath the king said, Come down quickly.

1:12 以利亚回答说，我若是神人，愿火从天上降下来，烧灭你和你那五十人。于是神的火从天上降下来，烧灭五十夫长和他那五十人。

And Elijah answered and said unto them, If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven, and consume thee and thy fifty. And the fire of God came down from heaven, and consumed him and his fifty.

1:13 王第三次差遣一个五十夫长，带领五十人去。这五十夫长上去，双膝跪在以利亚面前，哀求他说，神人哪，愿我的性命和你这五十个仆人的性命在你眼前看为宝贵。

And he sent again a captain of the third fifty with his fifty. And the third captain of fifty went up, and came and fell on his knees before Elijah, and besought him, and said unto him, O man of God, I pray thee, let my life, and the life of these fifty thy servants, be precious in thy sight.

1:14 已经有火从天上降下来，烧灭前两次来的五十夫长和他们各自带的五十人。现在愿我的性命在你眼前看为宝贵。

Behold, there came fire down from heaven, and burnt up the two captains of the former fifties with their fifties: therefore let my life now be precious in thy sight.

1:15 耶和华的使者对以利亚说，你同着他下去，不要怕他。以利亚就起来，同着他下去见王，

And the angel of the LORD said unto Elijah, Go down with him: be not afraid of him. And he arose, and went down with him unto the king.

1:16 对王说，耶和华如此说，你差人去问以革伦神巴力西卜，岂因以色列中没有神可以求问吗。所以你必不下所上的床，必定要死。

And he said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast sent messengers to enquire of Baalzebub the god of Ekron, is it not because there is no God in Israel to enquire of his word? therefore thou shalt not come down off that bed on which thou art gone up, but shalt surely die.

1:17 亚哈谢果然死了，正如耶和华藉以利亚所说的话。因他没有儿子，他兄弟约兰接续他作王，正在犹大王约沙法的儿子约兰第二年。

So he died according to the word of the LORD which Elijah had spoken. And Jehoram reigned in his stead in the second year of Jehoram the son of Jehoshaphat king of Judah; because he had no son.

1:18 亚哈谢其馀所行的事都写在以色列诸王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Ahaziah which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 2 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

2:1 耶和华要用旋风接以利亚升天的时候，以利亚与以利沙从吉甲前往。

And it came to pass, when the LORD would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.

2:2 以利亚对以利沙说，耶和华差我往伯特利去，你可以在这里等候。以利沙说，我指着永生的耶和华，又敢在你面前起誓，我必不离开你。于是二人下到伯特利。

And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.

2:3 住伯特利的先知门徒出来见以利沙，对他说，耶和华今日要接你的师傅离开你，你知道不知道。他说，我知道，你们不要作声。

And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.

2:4 以利亚对以利沙说，耶和华差遣我往耶利哥去，你可以在这里等候。以利沙说，我指着永生的耶和华，又敢在你面前起誓，我必不离开你。于是二人到了耶利哥。

And Elijah said unto him, Elisha, tarry here, I pray thee; for the LORD hath sent me to Jericho. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they came to Jericho.

2:5 住耶利哥的先知门徒就近以利沙，对他说，耶和华今日要接你的师傅离开你，你知道不知道。他说，我知道，你们不要作声。

And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the LORD will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he answered, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.

2:6 以利亚对以利沙说，耶和华差遣我往约旦河去，你可以在这里等候。以利沙说，我指着永生的耶和华，又敢在你面前起誓，我必不离开你。于是二人一同前往。

And Elijah said unto him, Tarry, I pray thee, here; for the LORD hath sent me to Jordan. And he said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And they two went on.

2:7 有先知门徒去了五十人，远远地站在他们对面。二人在约旦河边站住。

And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went, and stood to view afar off: and they two stood by Jordan.

2:8 以利亚将自己的外衣卷起来，用以打水，水就左右分开，二人走乾地而过。

And Elijah took his mantle, and wrapped it together, and smote the waters, and they were divided hither and thither, so that they two went over on dry ground.

2:9 过去之后，以利亚对以利沙说，我未曾被接去离开你，你要我为你作什么，只管求我。以利沙说，愿感动你的灵加倍地感动我。

And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.

2:10 以利亚说，你所求的难得。虽然如此，我被接去离开你的时候，你若看见我，就必得着。不然，必得不着了。

And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.

2:11 他们正走着说话，忽有火车火马将二人隔开，以利亚就乘旋风升天去了。

And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.

2:12 以利沙看见，就呼叫说，我父阿。我父阿。以色列的战车马兵阿。以后不再见他了。于是以利沙把自己的衣服撕为两片。

And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.

2:13 他拾起以利亚身上掉下来的外衣，回去站在约旦河边。

He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;

2:14 他用以利亚身上掉下来的外衣打水，说，耶和华以利亚的神在哪里呢。打水之后，水也左右分开，以利沙就过来了。

And he took the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and smote the waters, and said, Where is the LORD God of Elijah? and when he also had smitten the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha went over.

2:15 住耶利哥的先知门徒从对面看见他，就说，感动以利亚的灵感动以利沙了。他们就来迎接他，在他面前俯伏于地，

And when the sons of the prophets which were to view at Jericho saw him, they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground before him.

2:16 对他说，仆人们这里有五十个壮士，求你容他们去寻梢你师傅，或者耶和华的灵将他提起来，投在某山某谷。以利沙说，你们不必打发人去。

And they said unto him, Behold now, there be with thy servants fifty strong men; let them go, we pray thee, and seek thy master: lest peradventure the Spirit of the LORD hath taken him up, and cast him upon some mountain, or into some valley. And he said, Ye shall not send.

2:17 他们再三催促他，他难以推辞，就说，你们打发人去吧。他们便打发五十人去，寻梢了三天，也没有找着。

And when they urged him till he was ashamed, he said, Send. They sent therefore fifty men; and they sought three days, but found him not.

2:18 以利沙仍然在耶利哥等候他们回到他那里。他对他们说，我岂没有告诉你们不必去吗。

And when they came again to him, (for he tarried at Jericho,) he said unto them, Did I not say unto you, Go not?

2:19 耶利哥城的人对以利沙说，这城的地势美好，我主看见了。只是水恶劣，土产不熟而落。

And the men of the city said unto Elisha, Behold, I pray thee, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord seeth: but the water is naught, and the ground barren.

2:20 以利沙说，你们拿一个新瓶来，装盐给我。他们就拿来给他。

And he said, Bring me a new cruse, and put salt therein. And they brought it to him.

2:21 他出到水源，将盐倒在水中，说，耶和华如此说，我治好了这水，从此必不再使人死，也不再使地土不生产。

And he went forth unto the spring of the waters, and cast the salt in there, and said, Thus saith the LORD, I have healed these waters; there shall not be from thence any more death or barren land.

2:22 于是那水治好了，直到今日，正如以利沙所说的。

So the waters were healed unto this day, according to the saying of Elisha which he spake.

2:23 以利沙从那里上伯特利去，正上去的时候，有些童子从城里出来，戏笑他说，秃头的上去吧。秃头的上去吧。

And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.

2:24 他回头看见，就奉耶和华的名咒诅他们。于是有两个母熊从林中出来，撕裂他们中间四十二个童子。

And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

2:25 以利沙从伯特利上迦密山，又从迦密山回到撒马利亚。

And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 3 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

3:1 犹大王约沙法十八年，亚哈的儿子约兰在撒马利亚登基作了以色列王十二年。

Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and reigned twelve years.

3:2 他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，但不至像他父母所行的，因为除掉他父所造巴力的柱像。

And he wrought evil in the sight of the LORD; but not like his father, and like his mother: for he put away the image of Baal that his father had made.

3:3 然而，他贴近尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪，总不离开。

Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.

3:4 摩押王米沙牧养许多羊，每年将十万羊羔的毛和十万公绵羊的毛给以色列王进贡。

And Mesha king of Moab was a sheepmaster, and rendered unto the king of Israel an hundred thousand lambs, and an hundred thousand rams, with the wool.

3:5 亚哈死后，摩押王背叛以色列王。

But it came to pass, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.

3:6 那时约兰王出撒马利亚，数点以色列众人。

And king Jehoram went out of Samaria the same time, and numbered all Israel.

3:7 前行的时候，差人去见犹大王约沙法，说，摩押王背叛我，你肯同我去攻打摩押吗。他说，我肯上去，你我不分彼此，我的民与你的民一样，我的马与你的马一样。

And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying, The king of Moab hath rebelled against me: wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle? And he said, I will go up: I am as thou art, my people as thy people, and my horses as thy horses.

3:8 约兰说，我们从哪条路上去呢。回答说，从以东旷野的路上去。

And he said, Which way shall we go up? And he answered, The way through the wilderness of Edom.

3:9 于是，以色列王和犹大王，并以东王，都一同去绕行七日的路程。军队和所带的牲畜没有水喝。

So the king of Israel went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom: and they fetched a compass of seven days' journey: and there was no water for the host, and for the cattle that followed them.

3:10 以色列王说，哀哉。耶和华招聚我们这三王，乃要交在摩押人的手里。

And the king of Israel said, Alas! that the LORD hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab!

3:11 约沙法说，这里不是有耶和华的先知吗。我们可以托他求问耶和华。以色列王的一个臣子回答说，这里有沙法的儿子以利沙，就是从前服事以利亚的（原文作倒水在以利亚手上的）。

But Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the LORD, that we may enquire of the LORD by him? And one of the king of Israel's servants answered and said, Here is Elisha the son of Shaphat, which poured water on the hands of Elijah.

3:12 约沙法说，他必有耶和华的话。于是以色列王和约沙法，并以东王都下去见他。

And Jehoshaphat said, The word of the LORD is with him. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.

3:13 以利沙对以色列王说，我与你何干。去问你父亲的先知和你母亲的先知吧。以色列王对他说，不要这样说，耶和华招聚我们这三王，乃要交在摩押人的手里。

And Elisha said unto the king of Israel, What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother. And the king of Israel said unto him, Nay: for the LORD hath called these three kings together, to deliver them into the hand of Moab.

3:14 以利沙说，我指着所事奉永生的万军耶和华起誓，我若不看犹大王约沙法的情面，必不理你，不顾你。

And Elisha said, As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see thee.

3:15 现在你们给我找一个弹琴的来。弹琴的时候，耶和华的灵（原文作手）就降在以利沙身上。

But now bring me a minstrel. And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him.

3:16 他便说，耶和华如此说，你们要在这谷中满处挖沟。

And he said, Thus saith the LORD, Make this valley full of ditches.

3:17 因为耶和华如此说，你们虽不见风，不见雨，这谷必满了水，使你们和牲畜有水喝。

For thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye, and your cattle, and your beasts.

3:18 在耶和华眼中这还算为小事，他也必将摩押人交在你们手中。

And this is but a light thing in the sight of the LORD: he will deliver the Moabites also into your hand.

3:19 你们必攻破一切坚城美邑，砍伐各种佳树，塞住一切水泉，用石头糟踏一切美田。

And ye shall smite every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all wells of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.

3:20 次日早晨，约在献祭的时候，有水从以东而来，遍地就满了水。

And it came to pass in the morning, when the meat offering was offered, that, behold, there came water by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.

3:21 摩押众人听见这三王上来要与他们争战，凡能顶盔贯甲的，无论老少，尽都聚集站在边界上。

And when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they gathered all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood in the border.

3:22 次日早晨，日光照在水上，摩押人起来，看见对面水红如血，

And they rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water on the other side as red as blood:

3:23 就说，这是血阿。必是三王互相击杀，俱都灭亡。摩押人哪，我们现在去抢夺财物吧。

And they said, This is blood: the kings are surely slain, and they have smitten one another: now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.

3:24 摩押人到了以色列营，以色列人就起来攻打他们，以致他们在以色列人面前逃跑。以色列人往前追杀摩押人，直杀入摩押的境内，

And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them: but they went forward smiting the Moabites, even in their country.

3:25 拆毁摩押的城邑，各人抛石填满一切美田，塞住一切水泉，砍伐各种佳树，只剩下吉珥哈列设的石墙。甩石的兵在四围攻打那城。

And they beat down the cities, and on every good piece of land cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the wells of water, and felled all the good trees: only in Kirharaseth left they the stones thereof; howbeit the slingers went about it, and smote it.

3:26 摩押王见阵势甚大，难以对敌，就率领七百拿刀的兵，要冲过阵去到以东王那里，却是不能。

And when the king of Moab saw that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew swords, to break through even unto the king of Edom: but they could not.

3:27 便将那应当接续他作王的长子，在城上献为燔祭。以色列人遭遇耶和华的大怒（或作招人痛恨），于是三王离开摩押王，各回本国去了。

Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall. And there was great indignation against Israel: and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 4 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

4:1 有一个先知门徒的妻哀求以利沙说，你仆人我丈夫死了，他敬畏耶和华是你所知道的。现在有债主来，要取我两个儿子作奴仆。

Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.

4:2 以利沙问她说，我可以为你作什么呢。你告诉我，你家里有什么。她说，婢女家中除了一瓶油之外，没有什么。

And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.

4:3 以利沙说，你去，向你众邻舍借空器皿，不要少借。

Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few.

4:4 回到家里，关上门，你和你儿子在里面将油倒在所有的器皿里，倒满了的放在一边。

And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full.

4:5 于是，妇人离开以利沙去了，关上门，自己和儿子在里面。儿子把器皿拿来，她就倒油。

So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.

4:6 器皿都满了，她对儿子说，再给我拿器皿来。儿子说，再没有器皿了。油就止住了。

And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.

4:7 妇人去告诉神人，神人说，你去卖油还债，所剩的你和你儿子可以靠着度日。

Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.

4:8 一日，以利沙走到书念，在那里有一个大户的妇人强留他吃饭。此后，以利沙每从那里经过就进去吃饭。

And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.

4:9 妇人对丈夫说，我看出那常从我们这里经过的是圣洁的神人。

And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.

4:10 我们可以为他在墙上盖一间小楼，在其中安放床榻，桌子，椅子，灯台，他来到我们这里，就可以住在其间。

Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.

4:11 一日，以利沙来到那里，就进了那楼躺卧。

And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.

4:12 以利沙吩咐仆人基哈西说，你叫这书念妇人来。他就把妇人叫了来，妇人站在以利沙面前。

And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call this Shunammite. And when he had called her, she stood before him.

4:13 以利沙吩咐仆人说，你对她说，你既为我们费了许多心思，可以为你作什么呢。你向王或元帅有所求的没有。她回答说，我在我本乡安居无事。

And he said unto him, Say now unto her, Behold, thou hast been careful for us with all this care; what is to be done for thee? wouldest thou be spoken for to the king, or to the captain of the host? And she answered, I dwell among mine own people.

4:14 以利沙对仆人说，究竟当为她作什么呢。基哈西说，她没有儿子，她丈夫也老了。

And he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi answered, Verily she hath no child, and her husband is old.

4:15 以利沙说，再叫她来。于是叫了她来，她就站在门口。

And he said, Call her. And when he had called her, she stood in the door.

4:16 以利沙说，明年到这时候，你必抱一个儿子。她说，神人，我主阿，不要那样欺哄婢女。

And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid.

4:17 妇人果然怀孕，到了那时候，生了一个儿子，正如以利沙所说的。

And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.

4:18 孩子渐渐长大，一日到他父亲和收割的人那里，

And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.

4:19 他对父亲说，我的头阿，我的头阿。他父亲对仆人说，把他抱到他母亲那里。

And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.

4:20 仆人抱去，交给他母亲。孩子坐在母亲的膝上，到晌午就死了。

And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.

4:21 他母亲抱他上了楼，将他放在神人的床上，关上门出来，

And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out.

4:22 呼叫她丈夫说，你叫一个仆人给我牵一匹驴来，我要快快地去见神人，就回来。

And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.

4:23 丈夫说，今日不是月朔，也不是安息日，你为何要去见他呢。妇人说，平安无事。

And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.

4:24 于是备上驴，对仆人说，你快快赶着走，我若不吩咐你，就不要迟慢。

Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not thy riding for me, except I bid thee.

4:25 妇人就往迦密山去见神人。神人远远地看见她，对仆人基哈西说，看哪，书念的妇人来了。

So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:

4:26 你跑去迎接她，问她说，你平安吗。你丈夫平安吗。孩子平安吗。她说，平安。

Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well.

4:27 妇人上了山，到神人那里，就抱住神人的脚。基哈西前来要推开她，神人说，由她吧。因为她心里愁苦，耶和华向我隐瞒，没有指示我。

And when she came to the man of God to the hill, she caught him by the feet: but Gehazi came near to thrust her away. And the man of God said, Let her alone; for her soul is vexed within her: and the LORD hath hid it from me, and hath not told me.

4:28 妇人说，我何尝向我主求过儿子呢。我岂没有说过，不要欺哄我吗。

Then she said, Did I desire a son of my lord? did I not say, Do not deceive me?

4:29 以利沙吩咐基哈西说，你束上腰，手拿我的杖前去。若遇见人，不要向他问安。人若向你问安，也不要回答。要把我的杖放在孩子脸上。

Then he said to Gehazi, Gird up thy loins, and take my staff in thine hand, and go thy way: if thou meet any man, salute him not; and if any salute thee, answer him not again: and lay my staff upon the face of the child.

4:30 孩子的母亲说，我指着永生的耶和华，又敢在你面前起誓，我必不离开你。于是以利沙起身，随着她去了。

And the mother of the child said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her.

4:31 基哈西先去，把杖放在孩子脸上，却没有声音，也没有动静。基哈西就迎着以利沙回来，告诉他说，孩子还没有醒过来。

And Gehazi passed on before them, and laid the staff upon the face of the child; but there was neither voice, nor hearing. Wherefore he went again to meet him, and told him, saying, The child is not awaked.

4:32 以利沙来到，进了屋子，看见孩子死了，放在自己的床上。

And when Elisha was come into the house, behold, the child was dead, and laid upon his bed.

4:33 他就关上门，只有自己和孩子在里面，他便祈祷耶和华，

He went in therefore, and shut the door upon them twain, and prayed unto the LORD.

4:34 上床伏在孩子身上，口对口，眼对眼，手对手。既伏在孩子身上，孩子的身体就渐渐温和了。

And he went up, and lay upon the child, and put his mouth upon his mouth, and his eyes upon his eyes, and his hands upon his hands: and he stretched himself upon the child; and the flesh of the child waxed warm.

4:35 然后他下来，在屋里来往走了一趟，又上去伏在孩子身上，孩子打了七个喷嚏，就睁开眼睛了。

Then he returned, and walked in the house to and fro; and went up, and stretched himself upon him: and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.

4:36 以利沙叫基哈西说，你叫这书念妇人来。于是叫了她来。以利沙说，将你儿子抱起来。

And he called Gehazi, and said, Call this Shunammite. So he called her. And when she was come in unto him, he said, Take up thy son.

4:37 妇人就进来，在以利沙脚前俯伏于地，抱起她儿子出去了。

Then she went in, and fell at his feet, and bowed herself to the ground, and took up her son, and went out.

4:38 以利沙又来到吉甲，那地正有饥荒。先知门徒坐在他面前，他吩咐仆人说，你将大锅放在火上，给先知门徒熬汤。

And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.

4:39 有一个人去到田野掐菜，遇见一棵野瓜藤，就摘了一兜野瓜回来，切了搁在熬汤的锅中，因为他们不知道是什么东西。

And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew them not.

4:40 倒出来给众人吃，吃的时候，都喊叫说，神人哪，锅中有致死的毒物。所以众人不能吃了。

So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.

4:41 以利沙说，拿点面来，就把面撒在锅中，说，倒出来，给众人吃吧。锅中就没有毒了。

But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.

4:42 有一个人从巴力沙利沙来，带着初熟大麦作的饼二十个，并新穗子，装在口袋里送给神人。神人说，把这些给众人吃。

And there came a man from Baalshalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the firstfruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he said, Give unto the people, that they may eat.

4:43 仆人说，这一点岂可摆给一百人吃呢。以利沙说，你只管给众人吃吧。因为耶和华如此说，众人必吃了，还剩下。

And his servitor said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof.

4:44 仆人就摆在众人面前，他们吃了，果然还剩下，正如耶和华所说的。

So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the word of the LORD.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 5 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

5:1 亚兰王的元帅乃缦在他主人面前为尊为大，因耶和华曾藉他使亚兰人得胜。他又是大能的勇士，只是长了大麻疯。

Now Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, was a great man with his master, and honourable, because by him the LORD had given deliverance unto Syria: he was also a mighty man in valour, but he was a leper.

5:2 先前亚兰人成群地出去，从以色列国掳了一个小女子，这女子就服事乃缦的妻。

And the Syrians had gone out by companies, and had brought away captive out of the land of Israel a little maid; and she waited on Naaman's wife.

5:3 她对主母说，巴不得我主人去见撒马利亚的先知，必能治好他的大麻疯。

And she said unto her mistress, Would God my lord were with the prophet that is in Samaria! for he would recover him of his leprosy.

5:4 乃缦进去，告诉他主人说，以色列国的女子如此如此说。

And one went in, and told his lord, saying, Thus and thus said the maid that is of the land of Israel.

5:5 亚兰王说，你可以去，我也达信于以色列王。于是乃缦带银子十他连得，金子六千舍客勒，衣裳十套，就去了。

And the king of Syria said, Go to, go, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel. And he departed, and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.

5:6 且带信给以色列王，信上说，我打发臣仆乃缦去见你，你接到这信，就要治好他的大麻疯。

And he brought the letter to the king of Israel, saying, Now when this letter is come unto thee, behold, I have therewith sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou mayest recover him of his leprosy.

5:7 以色列王看了信就撕裂衣服，说，我岂是神，能使人死使人活呢。这人竟打发人来，叫我治好他的大麻疯。你们看一看，这人何以寻隙攻击我呢。

And it came to pass, when the king of Israel had read the letter, that he rent his clothes, and said, Am I God, to kill and to make alive, that this man doth send unto me to recover a man of his leprosy? wherefore consider, I pray you, and see how he seeketh a quarrel against me.

5:8 神人以利沙听见以色列王撕裂衣服，就打发人去见王，说，你为什么撕了衣服呢。可使那人到我这里来，他就知道以色列中有先知了。

And it was so, when Elisha the man of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.

5:9 于是，乃缦带着车马到了以利沙的家，站在门前。

So Naaman came with his horses and with his chariot, and stood at the door of the house of Elisha.

5:10 以利沙打发一个使者，对乃缦说，你去在约旦河中沭浴七回，你的肉就必复原，而得洁净。

And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean.

5:11 乃缦却发怒走了，说，我想他必定出来见我，站着求告耶和华他神的名，在患处以上摇手，治好这大麻疯。

But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper.

5:12 大马士革的河亚吧拿和法珥法岂不比以色列的一切水更好吗。我在那里沭浴不得洁净吗。于是气忿忿地转身去了。

Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage.

5:13 他的仆人进前来，对他说，我父阿，先知若吩咐你作一件大事，你岂不作吗。何况说你去沭浴而得洁净呢。

And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?

5:14 于是乃缦下去，照着神人的话，在约旦河里沭浴七回。他的肉复原，好像小孩子的肉，他就洁净了。

Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.

5:15 乃缦带着一切跟随他的人，回到神人那里，站在他面前，说，如今我知道，除了以色列之外，普天下没有神。现在求你收点仆人的礼物。

And he returned to the man of God, he and all his company, and came, and stood before him: and he said, Behold, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, but in Israel: now therefore, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant.

5:16 以利沙说，我指着所事奉永生的耶和华起誓，我必不受。乃缦再三地求他，他却不受。

But he said, As the LORD liveth, before whom I stand, I will receive none. And he urged him to take it; but he refused.

5:17 乃缦说，你若不肯受，请将两骡子驮的土赐给仆人。从今以后，仆人必不再将燔祭或平安祭献与别神，只献给耶和华。

And Naaman said, Shall there not then, I pray thee, be given to thy servant two mules' burden of earth? for thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt offering nor sacrifice unto other gods, but unto the LORD.

5:18 惟有一件事，愿耶和华饶恕你仆人，我主人进临门庙叩拜的时候，我用手搀他在临门庙，我也屈身。我在临门庙屈身的这事，愿耶和华饶恕我。

In this thing the LORD pardon thy servant, that when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon to worship there, and he leaneth on my hand, and I bow myself in the house of Rimmon: when I bow down myself in the house of Rimmon, the LORD pardon thy servant in this thing.

5:19 以利沙对他说，你可以平平安安地回去。乃缦就离开他去了。走了不远，

And he said unto him, Go in peace. So he departed from him a little way.

5:20 神人以利沙的仆人基哈西心里说，我主人不愿从这亚兰人乃缦手里受他带来的礼物，我指着永生的耶和华起誓，我必跑去追上他，向他要些。

But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syrian, in not receiving at his hands that which he brought: but, as the LORD liveth, I will run after him, and take somewhat of him.

5:21 于是基哈西追赶乃缦。乃缦看见有人追赶，就急忙下车迎着他，说，都平安吗。

So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him running after him, he lighted down from the chariot to meet him, and said, Is all well?

5:22 说，都平安。我主人打发我来说，刚才有两个少年人，是先知门徒，从以法莲山地来见我，请你赐他们一他连得银子，两套衣裳。

And he said, All is well. My master hath sent me, saying, Behold, even now there be come to me from mount Ephraim two young men of the sons of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, a talent of silver, and two changes of garments.

5:23 乃缦说，请受二他连得。再三地请受，便将二他连得银子装在两个口袋里，又将两套衣裳交给两个仆人。他们就在基哈西前头抬着走。

And Naaman said, Be content, take two talents. And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and laid them upon two of his servants; and they bare them before him.

5:24 到了山冈，基哈西从他们手中接过来，放在屋里，打发他们回去。

And when he came to the tower, he took them from their hand, and bestowed them in the house: and he let the men go, and they departed.

5:25 基哈西进去，站在他主人面前。以利沙问他说，基哈西你从哪里来。回答说，仆人没有往哪里去。

But he went in, and stood before his master. And Elisha said unto him, Whence comest thou, Gehazi? And he said, Thy servant went no whither.

5:26 以利沙对他说，那人下车转回迎你的时候，我的心岂没有去呢。这岂是受银子，衣裳，买橄榄园，葡萄园，牛羊，仆婢的时候呢。

And he said unto him, Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned again from his chariot to meet thee? Is it a time to receive money, and to receive garments, and oliveyards, and vineyards, and sheep, and oxen, and menservants, and maidservants?

5:27 因此，乃缦的大麻疯必沾染你和你的后裔，直到永远。基哈西从以利沙面前退出去，就长了大麻疯，像雪那样白。

The leprosy therefore of Naaman shall cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed for ever. And he went out from his presence a leper as white as snow.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 6 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

6:1 先知门徒对以利沙说，看哪，我们同你所住的地方过于窄小，

And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us.

6:2 求你容我们往约旦河去，各人从那里取一根木料建造房屋居住。他说，你们去吧。

Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye.

6:3 有一人说，求你与仆人同去。回答说，我可以去。

And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.

6:4 于是以利沙与他们同去。到了约旦河，就砍伐树木。

So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.

6:5 有一人砍树的时候，斧头掉在水里，他就呼叫说，哀哉。我主阿，这斧子是借的。

But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed.

6:6 神人问说，掉在哪里了。他将那地方指给以利沙看。以利沙砍了一根木头，抛在水里，斧头就漂上来了。

And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.

6:7 以利沙说，拿起来吧。那人就伸手拿起来了。

Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.

6:8 亚兰王与以色列人争战，和他的臣仆商议说，我要在某处某处安营。

Then the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying, In such and such a place shall be my camp.

6:9 神人打发人去见以色列王，说，你要谨慎，不要从某处经过，因为亚兰人从那里下来了。

And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying, Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.

6:10 以色列王差人去窥探神人所告诉所警戒他去的地方，就防备未受其害，不止一两次。

And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.

6:11 亚兰王因这事心里惊疑，召了臣仆来，对他们说，我们这里有谁帮助以色列王，你们不指给我吗。

Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us is for the king of Israel?

6:12 有一个臣仆说，我主，我王。无人帮助他，只有以色列中的先知以利沙，将王在卧房所说的话告诉以色列王了。

And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.

6:13 王说，你们去探他在哪里，我好打发人去捉拿他。有人告诉王说，他在多坍。

And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.

6:14 王就打发车马和大军往那里去，夜间到了，围困那城。

Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about.

6:15 神人的仆人清早起来出去，看见车马军兵围困了城。仆人对神人说，哀哉。我主阿，我们怎样行才好呢。

And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?

6:16 神人说，不要惧怕。与我们同在的比与他们同在的更多。

And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.

6:17 以利沙祷告说，耶和华阿，求你开这少年人的眼目，使他能看见。耶和华开他的眼目，他就看见满山有火车火马围绕以利沙。

And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.

6:18 敌人下到以利沙那里，以利沙祷告耶和华说，求你使这些人的眼目昏迷。耶和华就照以利沙的话，使他们的眼目昏迷。

And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

6:19 以利沙对他们说，这不是那道，也不是那城。你们跟我去，我必领你们到所寻梢的人那里。于是领他们到了撒马利亚。

And Elisha said unto them, This is not the way, neither is this the city: follow me, and I will bring you to the man whom ye seek. But he led them to Samaria.

6:20 他们进了撒马利亚，以利沙祷告说，耶和华阿，求你开这些人的眼目，使他们能看见。耶和华开他们的眼目，他们就看见了，不料，是在撒马利亚的城中。

And it came to pass, when they were come into Samaria, that Elisha said, LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see. And the LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and, behold, they were in the midst of Samaria.

6:21 以色列王见了他们，就问以利沙说，我父阿，我可以击杀他们吗。

And the king of Israel said unto Elisha, when he saw them, My father, shall I smite them? shall I smite them?

6:22 回答说，不可击杀他们。就是你用刀用弓掳来的，岂可击杀他们吗（或作也不可击杀，何况这些人呢）。当在他们面前设摆饮食，使他们吃喝回到他们的主人那里。

And he answered, Thou shalt not smite them: wouldest thou smite those whom thou hast taken captive with thy sword and with thy bow? set bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink, and go to their master.

6:23 王就为他们预备了许多食物。他们吃喝完了，打发他们回到他们主人那里。从此，亚兰军不再犯以色列境了。

And he prepared great provision for them: and when they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. So the bands of Syria came no more into the land of Israel.

6:24 此后，亚兰王便哈达聚集他的全军，上来围困撒马利亚。

And it came to pass after this, that Benhadad king of Syria gathered all his host, and went up, and besieged Samaria.

6:25 于是撒马利亚被围困，有饥荒，甚至一个驴头值银八十舍客勒，二升鸽子粪值银五舍客勒。

And there was a great famine in Samaria: and, behold, they besieged it, until an ass's head was sold for fourscore pieces of silver, and the fourth part of a cab of dove's dung for five pieces of silver.

6:26 一日，以色列王在城上经过，有一个妇人向他呼叫说，我主，我王阿。求你帮助。

And as the king of Israel was passing by upon the wall, there cried a woman unto him, saying, Help, my lord, O king.

6:27 王说，耶和华不帮助你，我从何处帮助你。是从禾场，是从酒？？呢。

And he said, If the LORD do not help thee, whence shall I help thee? out of the barnfloor, or out of the winepress?

6:28 王问妇人说，你有什么苦处。她回答说，这妇人对我说，将你的儿子取来，我们今日可以吃，明日可以吃我的儿子。

And the king said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow.

6:29 我们就煮了我的儿子吃了。次日我对她说，要将你的儿子取来，我们可以吃。她却将她的儿子藏起来了。

So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.

6:30 王听见妇人的话，就撕裂衣服。（王在城上经过）百姓看见王贴身穿着麻衣。

And it came to pass, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he rent his clothes; and he passed by upon the wall, and the people looked, and, behold, he had sackcloth within upon his flesh.

6:31 王说，我今日若容沙法的儿子以利沙的头仍在他项上，愿神重重地降罚与我。

Then he said, God do so and more also to me, if the head of Elisha the son of Shaphat shall stand on him this day.

6:32 那时，以利沙正坐在家中，长老也与他同坐。王打发一个伺候他的人去。他还没有到，以利沙对长老说，你们看这凶手之子，打发人来斩我的头。你们看着使者来到，就关上门，用门将他推出去。在他后头不是有他主人脚步的响声吗？

But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and the king sent a man from before him: but ere the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away mine head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him fast at the door: is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?

6:33 正说话的时候，使者来到，王也到了，说，这灾祸是从耶和华那里来的，我何必再仰望耶和华呢。

And while he yet talked with them, behold, the messenger came down unto him: and he said, Behold, this evil is of the LORD; what should I wait for the LORD any longer?

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 7 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

7:1 以利沙说，你们要听耶和华的话，耶和华如此说，明日约到这时候，在撒马利亚城门口，一细亚细面要卖银一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也要卖银一舍客勒。

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.

7:2 有一个搀扶王的军长对神人说，即便耶和华使天开了窗户，也不能有这事。以利沙说，你必亲眼看见，却不得吃。

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.

7:3 在城门那里有四个长大麻疯的人，他们彼此说，我们为何坐在这里等死呢。

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?

7:4 我们若说，进城去吧。城里有饥荒，必死在那里。若在这里坐着不动，也必是死。来吧，我们去投降亚兰人的军队，他们若留我们的活命，就活着。若杀我们，就死了吧。

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.

7:5 黄昏的时候，他们起来往亚兰人的营盘去。到了营边，不见一人在那里。

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.

7:6 因为主使亚兰人的军队听见车马的声音，是大军的声音。他们就彼此说，这必是以色列王贿买赫人的诸王和埃及人的诸王来攻击我们。

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.

7:7 所以，在黄昏的时候他们起来逃跑，撇下帐棚，马，驴，营盘照旧，只顾逃命。

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.

7:8 那些长大麻疯的到了营边，进了帐棚，吃了喝了，且从其中拿出金银和衣服来，去收藏了。回来又进了一座帐棚，从其中拿出财物来去收藏了。

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.

7:9 那时，他们彼此说，我们所作的不好。今日是有好信息的日子，我们竟不作声。若等到天亮，罪必临到我们。来吧，我们与王家报信去。

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.

7:10 他们就去叫守城门的，告诉他们说，我们到了亚兰人的营，不见一人在那里，也无人声，只有拴着的马和驴，帐棚都照旧。

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.

7:11 守城门的叫了众守门的人来，他们就进去与王家报信。

And he called the porters; and they told it to the king's house within.

7:12 王夜间起来，对臣仆说，我告诉你们亚兰人向我们如何行。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，我们就活捉他们，得以进城。

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.

7:13 有一个臣仆对王说，我们不如用城里剩下之马中的五匹马（马和城里剩下的以色列人都是一样，快要灭绝），打发人去窥探。

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.

7:14 于是取了两辆车和马，王差人去追寻亚兰军，说，你们去窥探窥探。

They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.

7:15 他们就追寻到约旦河，看见满道上都是亚兰人急跑时丢弃的衣服器具，使者就回来报告王。

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.

7:16 众人就出去，掳掠亚兰人的营盘。于是一细亚细面卖银一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也卖银一舍客勒，正如耶和华所说的。

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.

7:17 王派搀扶他的那军长在城门口弹压，众人在那里将他践踏，他就死了，正如神人在王下来见他的时候所说的。

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.

7:18 神人曾对王说，明日约到这时候，在撒马利亚城门口，二细亚大麦要卖银一舍客勒，一细亚细面也要卖银一舍客勒。

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:

7:19 那军长对神人说，即便耶和华使天开了窗户，也不能有这事。神人说，你必亲眼看见，却不得吃。

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.

7:20 这话果然应验在他身上。因为众人在城门口将他践踏，他就死了。

And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 8 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

8:1 以利沙曾对所救活之子的那妇人说，你和你的全家要起身往你可住的地方去住，因为耶和华命饥荒降在这地七年。

Then spake Elisha unto the woman, whose son he had restored to life, saying, Arise, and go thou and thine household, and sojourn wheresoever thou canst sojourn: for the LORD hath called for a famine; and it shall also come upon the land seven years.

8:2 妇人就起身，照神人的话带着全家往非利士地去，住了七年。

And the woman arose, and did after the saying of the man of God: and she went with her household, and sojourned in the land of the Philistines seven years.

8:3 七年完了，那妇人从非利士地回来，就出去为自己的房屋田地哀告王。

And it came to pass at the seven years' end, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines: and she went forth to cry unto the king for her house and for her land.

8:4 那时王正与神人的仆人基哈西说，请你将以利沙所行的一切大事告诉我。

And the king talked with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, Tell me, I pray thee, all the great things that Elisha hath done.

8:5 基哈西告诉王以利沙如何使死人复活，恰巧以利沙所救活，她儿子的那妇人为自己的房屋田地来哀告王。基哈西说，我主我王，这就是那妇人，这是她的儿子，就是以利沙所救活的。

And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored a dead body to life, that, behold, the woman, whose son he had restored to life, cried to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.

8:6 王问那妇人，她就把那事告诉王。于是王为她派一个太监，说，凡属这妇人的都还给她，自从她离开本地直到今日，她田地的出产也都还给她。

And when the king asked the woman, she told him. So the king appointed unto her a certain officer, saying, Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field since the day that she left the land, even until now.

8:7 以利沙来到大马士革，亚兰王便哈达正患病。有人告诉王说，神人来到这里了。

And Elisha came to Damascus; and Benhadad the king of Syria was sick; and it was told him, saying, The man of God is come hither.

8:8 王就吩咐哈薛说，你带着礼物去见神人，托他求问耶和华，我这病能好不能好。

And the king said unto Hazael, Take a present in thine hand, and go, meet the man of God, and enquire of the LORD by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?

8:9 于是哈薛用四十个骆驼，驮着大马士革的各样美物为礼物，去见以利沙。到了他那里，站在他面前，说，你儿子亚兰王便哈达打发我来见你，他问说，我这病能好不能好。

So Hazael went to meet him, and took a present with him, even of every good thing of Damascus, forty camels' burden, and came and stood before him, and said, Thy son Benhadad king of Syria hath sent me to thee, saying, Shall I recover of this disease?

8:10 以利沙对哈薛说，你回去告诉他说，这病必能好。但耶和华指示我，他必要死。

And Elisha said unto him, Go, say unto him, Thou mayest certainly recover: howbeit the LORD hath shewed me that he shall surely die.

8:11 神人定睛看着哈薛，甚至他惭愧。神人就哭了。

And he settled his countenance stedfastly, until he was ashamed: and the man of God wept.

8:12 哈薛说，我主为什么哭。回答说，因为我知道你必苦害以色列人，用火焚烧他们的保障，用刀杀死他们的壮丁，摔死他们的婴孩，剖开他们的孕妇。

And Hazael said, Why weepeth my lord? And he answered, Because I know the evil that thou wilt do unto the children of Israel: their strong holds wilt thou set on fire, and their young men wilt thou slay with the sword, and wilt dash their children, and rip up their women with child.

8:13 哈薛说，你仆人算什么，不过是一条狗，焉能行这大事呢。以利沙回答说，耶和华指示我，你必作亚兰王。

And Hazael said, But what, is thy servant a dog, that he should do this great thing? And Elisha answered, The LORD hath shewed me that thou shalt be king over Syria.

8:14 哈薛离开以利沙，回去见他的主人。主人问他说，以利沙对你说什么。回答说，他告诉我你必能好。

So he departed from Elisha, and came to his master; who said to him, What said Elisha to thee? And he answered, He told me that thou shouldest surely recover.

8:15 次日，哈薛拿被窝浸在水中，蒙住王的脸，王就死了。于是哈薛篡了他的位。

And it came to pass on the morrow, that he took a thick cloth, and dipped it in water, and spread it on his face, so that he died: and Hazael reigned in his stead.

8:16 以色列王亚哈的儿子约兰第五年，犹大王约沙法还在位的时候，约沙法的儿子约兰登基作了犹大王。

And in the fifth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel, Jehoshaphat being then king of Judah, Jehoram the son of Je hoshaphat king of Judah began to reign.

8:17 约兰登基的时候年三十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王八年。

Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

8:18 他行以色列诸王所行的，与亚哈家一样。因为他娶了亚哈的女儿为妻，行耶和华眼中看为恶的事。

And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as did the house of Ahab: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife: and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.

8:19 耶和华却因他仆人大卫的缘故，仍不肯灭绝犹大，照他所应许大卫的话，永远赐灯光与他的子孙。

Yet the LORD would not destroy Judah for David his servant's sake, as he promised him to give him alway a light, and to his children.

8:20 约兰年间，以东人背叛犹大，脱离他的权下，自己立王。

In his days Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah, and made a king over themselves.

8:21 约兰率领所有的战车往撒益去，夜间起来，攻打围困他的以东人和车兵长。犹大兵就逃跑，各回各家去了。

So Joram went over to Zair, and all the chariots with him: and he rose by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him about, and the captains of the chariots: and the people fled into their tents.

8:22 这样，以东人背叛犹大，脱离他的权下，直到今日。那时立拿人也背叛了。

Yet Edom revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. Then Libnah revolted at the same time.

8:23 约兰其馀的事，凡他所行的，都写在犹大列王记上。

And the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

8:24 约兰与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子亚哈谢接续他作王。

And Joram slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Ahaziah his son reigned in his stead.

8:25 以色列王亚哈的儿子约兰十二年，犹大王约兰的儿子亚哈谢登基。

In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to reign.

8:26 他登基的时候年二十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王一年。他母亲名叫亚他利雅，是以色列王暗利的孙女。

Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.

8:27 亚哈谢效法亚哈家行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，与亚哈家一样，因为他是亚哈家的女婿。

And he walked in the way of the house of Ahab, and did evil in the sight of the LORD, as did the house of Ahab: for he was the son in law of the house of Ahab.

8:28 他与亚哈的儿子约兰同往基列的拉末去，与亚兰王哈薛争战。亚兰人打伤了约兰，

And he went with Joram the son of Ahab to the war against Hazael king of Syria in Ramothgilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.

8:29 约兰王回到耶斯列，医治在拉末与亚兰王哈薛打仗的时候所受的伤。犹大王约兰的儿子亚哈谢因为亚哈的儿子约兰病了，就下到耶斯列看望他。

And king Joram went back to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Joram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 9 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

9:1 先知以利沙叫了一个先知门徒来，吩咐他说，你束上腰，手拿这瓶膏油往基列的拉末去。

And Elisha the prophet called one of the children of the prophets, and said unto him, Gird up thy loins, and take this box of oil in thine hand, and go to Ramothgilead:

9:2 到了那里，要寻梢宁示的孙子，约沙法的儿子耶户，使他从同僚中起来，带他进严密的屋子，

And when thou comest thither, look out there Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi, and go in, and make him arise up from among his brethren, and carry him to an inner chamber;

9:3 将瓶里的膏油倒在他头上，说，耶和华如此说，我膏你作以色列王。说完了，就开门逃跑，不要迟延。

Then take the box of oil, and pour it on his head, and say, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel. Then open the door, and flee, and tarry not.

9:4 于是那少年先知往基列的拉末去了。

So the young man, even the young man the prophet, went to Ramothgilead.

9:5 到了那里，看见众军长都坐着，就说，将军哪，我有话对你说。耶户说，我们众人里，你要对哪一个说呢。回答说，将军哪，我要对你说。

And when he came, behold, the captains of the host were sitting; and he said, I have an errand to thee, O captain. And Jehu said, Unto which of all us? And he said, To thee, O captain.

9:6 耶户就起来，进了屋子，少年人将膏油倒在他头上，对他说，耶和华以色列的神如此说，我膏你作耶和华民以色列的王。

And he arose, and went into the house; and he poured the oil on his head, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I have anointed thee king over the people of the LORD, even over Israel.

9:7 你要击杀你主人亚哈的全家，我好在耶洗别身上伸我仆人众先知和耶和华一切仆人流血的冤。

And thou shalt smite the house of Ahab thy master, that I may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets, and the blood of all the servants of the LORD, at the hand of Jezebel.

9:8 亚哈全家必都灭亡，凡属亚哈的男丁，无论是困住的，自由的，我必从以色列中剪除，

For the whole house of Ahab shall perish: and I will cut off from Ahab him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel:

9:9 使亚哈的家像尼八儿子耶罗波安的家，又像亚希雅儿子巴沙的家。

And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah:

9:10 耶洗别必在耶斯列田里被狗所吃，无人葬埋。说完了，少年人就开门逃跑了。

And the dogs shall eat Jezebel in the portion of Jezreel, and there shall be none to bury her. And he opened the door, and fled.

9:11 耶户出来，回到他主人的臣仆那里，有一人问他说，平安吗。这狂妄的人来见你有什么事呢。回答说，你们认得那人，也知道他说什么。

Then Jehu came forth to the servants of his lord: and one said unto him, Is all well? wherefore came this mad fellow to thee? And he said unto them, Ye know the man, and his communication.

9:12 他们说，这是假话，你据实地告诉我们。回答说，他如此如此对我说。他说，耶和华如此说，我膏你作以色列王。

And they said, It is false; tell us now. And he said, Thus and thus spake he to me, saying, Thus saith the LORD, I have anointed thee king over Israel.

9:13 他们就急忙各将自己的衣服铺在上层台阶，使耶户坐在其上。他们吹角，说，耶户作王了。

Then they hasted, and took every man his garment, and put it under him on the top of the stairs, and blew with trumpets, saying, Jehu is king.

9:14 这样，宁示的孙子，约沙法的儿子耶户背叛约兰。先是约兰和以色列众人因为亚兰王哈薛的缘故，把守基列的拉末。

So Jehu the son of Jehoshaphat the son of Nimshi conspired against Joram. (Now Joram had kept Ramothgilead, he and all Israel, because of Hazael king of Syria.

9:15 但约兰王回到耶斯列，医治与亚兰王哈薛打仗所受的伤。耶户说，若合你们的意思，就不容人逃出城往耶斯列报信去。

But king Joram was returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds which the Syrians had given him, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria.) And Jehu said, If it be your minds, then let none go forth nor escape out of the city to go to tell it in Jezreel.

9:16 于是耶户坐车往耶斯列去，因为约兰病卧在那里。犹大王亚哈谢已经下去看望他。

So Jehu rode in a chariot, and went to Jezreel; for Joram lay there. And Ahaziah king of Judah was come down to see Joram.

9:17 有一个守望的人站在耶斯列的楼上，看见耶户带着一群人来，就说，我看见一群人。约兰说，打发一个骑马的去迎接他们，问说，平安不平安。

And there stood a watchman on the tower in Jezreel, and he spied the company of Jehu as he came, and said, I see a company. And Joram said, Take an horseman, and send to meet them, and let him say, Is it peace?

9:18 骑马的就去迎接耶户，说，王问说，平安不平安。耶户说，平安不平安与你何干。你转在我后头吧。守望的人又说，使者到了他们那里，却不回来。

So there went one on horseback to meet him, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu said, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me. And the watchman told, saying, The messenger came to them, but he cometh not again.

9:19 王又打发一个骑马的去。这人到了他们那里，说，王问说，平安不平安。耶户说，平安不平安与你何干。你转在我后头吧。

Then he sent out a second on horseback, which came to them, and said, Thus saith the king, Is it peace? And Jehu answered, What hast thou to do with peace? turn thee behind me.

9:20 守望的人又说，他到了他们那里，也不回来。车赶得甚猛，像宁示的孙子耶户的赶法。

And the watchman told, saying, He came even unto them, and cometh not again: and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi; for he driveth furiously.

9:21 约兰吩咐说，套车。人就给他套车。以色列王约兰和犹大王亚哈谢各坐自己的车出去迎接耶户，在耶斯列人拿伯的田那里遇见他。

And Joram said, Make ready. And his chariot was made ready. And Joram king of Israel and Ahaziah king of Judah went out, each in his chariot, and they went out against Jehu, and met him in the portion of Naboth the Jezreelite.

9:22 约兰见耶户就说，耶户阿，平安吗。耶户说，你母亲耶洗别的淫行邪术这样多，焉能平安呢。

And it came to pass, when Joram saw Jehu, that he said, Is it peace, Jehu? And he answered, What peace, so long as the whoredoms of thy mother Jezebel and her witchcrafts are so many?

9:23 约兰就转车逃跑，对亚哈谢说，亚哈谢阿，反了。

And Joram turned his hands, and fled, and said to Ahaziah, There is treachery, O Ahaziah.

9:24 耶户开满了弓，射中约兰的脊背，箭从心窝穿出，约兰就仆倒在车上。

And Jehu drew a bow with his full strength, and smote Jehoram between his arms, and the arrow went out at his heart, and he sunk down in his chariot.

9:25 耶户对他的军长毕甲说，你把他抛在耶斯列人拿伯的田间。你当追想，你我一同坐车跟随他父亚哈的时候，耶和华对亚哈所说的预言，

Then said Jehu to Bidkar his captain, Take up, and cast him in the portion of the field of Naboth the Jezreelite: for remember how that, when I and thou rode together after Ahab his father, the LORD laid this burden upon him;

9:26 说，我昨日看见拿伯的血和他众子的血，我必在这块田上报应你。这是耶和华说的，现在你要照着耶和华的话，把他抛在这田间。

Surely I have seen yesterday the blood of Naboth, and the blood of his sons, saith the LORD; and I will requite thee in this plat, saith the LORD. Now therefore take and cast him into the plat of ground, according to the word of the LORD.

9:27 犹大王亚哈谢见这光景，就从园亭之路逃跑。耶户追赶他，说，把这人也杀在车上。到了靠近以伯莲的姑珥坡上击伤了他。他逃到米吉多，就死在那里。

But when Ahaziah the king of Judah saw this, he fled by the way of the garden house. And Jehu followed after him, and said, Smite him also in the chariot. And they did so at the going up to Gur, which is by Ibleam. And he fled to Megiddo, and died there.

9:28 他的臣仆用车将他的尸首送到耶路撒冷，葬在大卫城他自己的坟墓里，与他列祖同葬。

And his servants carried him in a chariot to Jerusalem, and buried him in his sepulchre with his fathers in the city of David.

9:29 亚哈谢登基作犹大王的时候，是在亚哈的儿子约兰第十一年。

And in the eleventh year of Joram the son of Ahab began Ahaziah to reign over Judah.

9:30 耶户到了耶斯列。耶洗别听见就擦粉，梳头，从窗户里往外观看。

And when Jehu was come to Jezreel, Jezebel heard of it; and she painted her face, and tired her head, and looked out at a window.

9:31 耶户进门的时候，耶洗别说，杀主人的心利阿，平安吗。

And as Jehu entered in at the gate, she said, Had Zimri peace, who slew his master?

9:32 耶户抬头向窗户观看，说，谁顺从我。有两三个太监从窗户往外看他。

And he lifted up his face to the window, and said, Who is on my side? who? And there looked out to him two or three eunuchs.

9:33 耶户说，把她扔下来。他们就把她扔下来。她的血溅在墙上和马上。于是把她践踏了。

And he said, Throw her down. So they threw her down: and some of her blood was sprinkled on the wall, and on the horses: and he trode her under foot.

9:34 耶户进去，吃了喝了，吩咐说，你们把这被咒诅的妇人葬埋了，因为她是王的女儿。

And when he was come in, he did eat and drink, and said, Go, see now this cursed woman, and bury her: for she is a king's daughter.

9:35 他们就去葬埋她，只寻得她的头骨和脚，并手掌。

And they went to bury her: but they found no more of her than the skull, and the feet, and the palms of her hands.

9:36 他们回去告诉耶户，耶户说，这正应验耶和华藉他仆人提斯比人以利亚所说的话，说，在耶斯列田间，狗必吃耶洗别的肉。

Wherefore they came again, and told him. And he said, This is the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Elijah the Tishbite, saying, In the portion of Jezreel shall dogs eat the flesh of Jezebel:

9:37 耶洗别的尸首必在耶斯列田间如同粪土，甚至人不能说这是耶洗别。

And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not say, This is Jezebel.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 10 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

10:1 亚哈有七十个儿子在撒马利亚。耶户写信送到撒马利亚，通知耶斯列的首领，就是长老和教养亚哈众子的人，说，

And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria. And Jehu wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, unto the rulers of Jezreel, to the elders, and to them that brought up Ahab's children, saying,

10:2 你们那里既有你们主人的众子和车马，器械，坚固城，

Now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master's sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, a fenced city also, and armour;

10:3 接了这信，就可以在你们主人的众子中选择一个贤能合宜的，使他坐他父亲的位，你们也可以为你们主人的家争战。

Look even out the best and meetest of your master's sons, and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's house.

10:4 他们却甚惧怕，彼此说，二王在他面前尚且站立不住，我们怎能站得住呢。

But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold, two kings stood not before him: how then shall we stand?

10:5 家宰，邑宰，和长老，并教养众子的人，打发人去见耶户，说，我们是你的仆人，凡你所吩咐我们的都必遵行，我们不立谁作王，你看怎样好就怎样行。

And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and the bringers up of the children, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy servants, and will do all that thou shalt bid us; we will not make any king: do thou that which is good in thine eyes.

10:6 耶户又给他们写信说，你们若归顺我，听从我的话，明日这时候，要将你们主人众子的首级带到耶斯列来见我。那时王的儿子七十人都住在教养他们那城中的尊贵人家里。

Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye be mine, and if ye will hearken unto my voice, take ye the heads of the men your master's sons, and come to me to Jezreel by to morrow this time. Now the king's sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, which brought them up.

10:7 信一到，他们就把王的七十个儿子杀了，将首级装在筐里，送到在耶斯列的耶户那里。

And it came to pass, when the letter came to them, that they took the king's sons, and slew seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent him them to Jezreel.

10:8 有使者来告诉耶户说，他们将王众子的首级送来了。耶户说，将首级在城门口堆作两堆，搁到明日。

And there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king's sons. And he said, Lay ye them in two heaps at the entering in of the gate until the morning.

10:9 次日早晨，耶户出来，站着对众民说，你们都是公义的，我背叛我主人，将他杀了。这些人却是谁杀的呢。

And it came to pass in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye be righteous: behold, I conspired against my master, and slew him: but who slew all these?

10:10 由此可知，耶和华指着亚哈家所说的话一句没有落空，因为耶和华藉他仆人以利亚所说的话都成就了。

Know now that there shall fall unto the earth nothing of the word of the LORD, which the LORD spake concerning the house of Ahab: for the LORD hath done that which he spake by his servant Elijah.

10:11 凡亚哈家在耶斯列所剩下的人和他的大臣，密友，祭司，耶户尽都杀了，没有留下一个。

So Jehu slew all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his kinsfolks, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.

10:12 耶户起身往撒马利亚去。在路上，牧人剪羊毛之处，

And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing house in the way,

10:13 遇见犹大王亚哈谢的弟兄，问他们说，你们是谁。回答说，我们是亚哈谢的弟兄，现在下去要问王和太后的众子安。

Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to salute the children of the king and the children of the queen.

10:14 耶户吩咐说，活捉他们。跟从的人就活捉了他们，将他们杀在剪羊毛之处的坑边，共四十二人，没有留下一个。

And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and slew them at the pit of the shearing house, even two and forty men; neither left he any of them.

10:15 耶户从那里前行，恰遇利甲的儿子约拿达来迎接他，耶户问他安，对他说，你诚心待我像我诚心待你吗。约拿达回答说，是。耶户说，若是这样，你向我伸手，他就伸手。耶户拉他上车。

And when he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he saluted him, and said to him, Is thine heart right, as my heart is with thy heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, give me thine hand. And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.

10:16 耶户说，你和我同去，看我为耶和华怎样热心。于是请他坐在车上，

And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD. So they made him ride in his chariot.

10:17 到了撒马利亚，就把撒马利亚的亚哈家剩下的人都杀了，直到灭尽，正如耶和华对以利亚所说的。

And when he came to Samaria, he slew all that remained unto Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD, which he spake to Elijah.

10:18 耶户招聚众民，对他们说，亚哈事奉巴力还冷淡，耶户却更热心。

And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said unto them, Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu shall serve him much.

10:19 现在我要给巴力献大祭。应当叫巴力的众先知和一切拜巴力的人，并巴力的众祭司，都到我这里来，不可缺少一个。凡不来的必不得活。耶户这样行，是用诡计要杀尽拜巴力的人。

Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.

10:20 耶户说，要为巴力宣告严肃会。于是宣告了。

And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.

10:21 耶户差人走遍以色列地。凡拜巴力的人都来齐了，没有一个不来的。他们进了巴力庙，巴力庙中从前边直到后边都满了人。

And Jehu sent through all Israel: and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.

10:22 耶户吩咐掌管礼服的人说，拿出礼服来，给一切拜巴力的人穿。他就拿出礼服来给了他们。

And he said unto him that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.

10:23 耶户和利甲的儿子约拿达进了巴力庙，对拜巴力的人说，你们察看察看，在你们这里不可有耶和华的仆人，只可容留拜巴力的人。

And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal, and said unto the worshippers of Baal, Search, and look that there be here with you none of the servants of the LORD, but the worshippers of Baal only.

10:24 耶户和约拿达进去，献平安祭和燔祭。耶户先安排八十人在庙外，吩咐说，我将这些人交在你们手中，若有一人脱逃，谁放的必叫他偿命。

And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu appointed fourscore men without, and said, If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escape, he that letteth him go, his life shall be for the life of him.

10:25 耶户献完了燔祭，就出来吩咐护卫兵和众军长说，你们进去杀他们，不容一人出来。护卫兵和军长就用刀杀他们，将尸首抛出去，便到巴力庙的城去了，

And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.

10:26 将巴力庙中的柱像都拿出来烧了。

And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them.

10:27 毁坏了巴力柱像，拆毁了巴力庙作为厕所，直到今日。

And they brake down the image of Baal, and brake down the house of Baal, and made it a draught house unto this day.

10:28 这样，耶户在以色列中灭了巴力。

Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.

10:29 只是耶户不离开尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪，就是拜伯特利和但的金牛犊。

Howbeit from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, to wit, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.

10:30 耶和华对耶户说，因你办好我眼中看为正的事，照我的心意待亚哈家，你的子孙必接续你坐以色列的国位，直到四代。

And the LORD said unto Jehu, Because thou hast done well in executing that which is right in mine eyes, and hast done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in mine heart, thy children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.

10:31 只是耶户不尽心遵守耶和华以色列神的律法，不离开耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪。

But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, which made Israel to sin.

10:32 在那些日子，耶和华才割裂以色列国，使哈薛攻击以色列的境界，

In those days the LORD began to cut Israel short: and Hazael smote them in all the coasts of Israel;

10:33 乃是约旦河东，基列全地，从靠近亚嫩谷边的亚罗珥起，就是基列和巴珊的迦得人，流便人，玛拿西人之地。

From Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.

10:34 耶户其馀的事，凡他所行的和他的勇力都写在以色列诸王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

10:35 耶户与他列祖同睡，葬在撒马利亚。他儿子约哈斯接续他作王。

And Jehu slept with his fathers: and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.

10:36 耶户在撒马利亚作以色列王二十八年。

And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 11 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

11:1 亚哈谢的母亲亚他利雅见她儿子死了，就起来剿灭王室。

And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.

11:2 但约兰王的女儿，亚哈谢的妹子约示巴，将亚哈谢的儿子约阿施从那被杀的王子中偷出来，把他和他的乳母都藏在卧房里，躲避亚他利雅，免得被杀。

But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.

11:3 约阿施和他的乳母藏在耶和华的殿里六年。亚他利雅篡了国位。

And he was with her hid in the house of the LORD six years. And Athaliah did reign over the land.

11:4 第七年，耶何耶大打发人叫迦利人（或作亲兵）和护卫兵的众百夫长来，领他们进了耶和华的殿，与他们立约，使他们在耶和华殿里起誓，又将王的儿子指给他们看，

And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to him into the house of the LORD, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of the LORD, and shewed them the king's son.

11:5 吩咐他们说，你们当这样行，凡安息日进班的三分之一要看守王宫，

And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of the watch of the king's house;

11:6 三分之一要在苏珥门，三分之一要在护卫兵院的后门。这样把守王宫，拦阻闲人。

And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down.

11:7 你们安息日所有出班的三分之二要在耶和华的殿里护卫王。

And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of the LORD about the king.

11:8 各人手拿兵器，四围护卫王。凡擅入你们班次的必当治死，王出入的时候，你们当跟随他。

And ye shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he that cometh within the ranges, let him be slain: and be ye with the king as he goeth out and as he cometh in.

11:9 众百夫长就照着祭司耶何耶大一切所吩咐的去行，各带所管安息日进班出班的人来见祭司耶何耶大。

And the captains over the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that should go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.

11:10 祭司便将耶和华殿里所藏大卫王的枪和盾牌交给百夫长。

And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David's spears and shields, that were in the temple of the LORD.

11:11 护卫兵手中各拿兵器，在坛和殿那里，从殿右直到殿左，站在王子的四围。

And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, round about the king, from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple, along by the altar and the temple.

11:12 祭司领王子出来，给他戴上冠冕，将律法书交给他，膏他作王。众人就拍掌说，愿王万岁。

And he brought forth the king's son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, God save the king.

11:13 亚他利雅听见护卫兵和民的声音，就到民那里，进耶和华的殿，

And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the temple of the LORD.

11:14 看见王照例站在柱旁，百夫长和吹号的人侍立在王左右，国中的众民欢乐吹号。亚他利雅就撕裂衣服，喊叫说，反了。反了。

And when she looked, behold, the king stood by a pillar, as the manner was, and the princes and the trumpeters by the king, and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets: and Athaliah rent her clothes, and cried, Treason, Treason.

11:15 祭司耶何耶大吩咐管辖军兵的百夫长说，将她赶出班外，凡跟随她的必用刀杀死。因为祭司说不可在耶和华殿里杀她，

But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain in the house of the LORD.

11:16 众兵就闪开让她去。她从马路上王宫去，便在那里被杀。

And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king's house: and there was she slain.

11:17 耶何耶大使王和民与耶和华立约，作耶和华的民。又使王与民立约。

And Jehoiada made a covenant between the LORD and the king and the people, that they should be the LORD's people; between the king also and the people.

11:18 于是国民都到巴力庙，拆毁了庙，打碎坛和像，又在坛前将巴力的祭司玛坦杀了。祭司耶何耶大派官看守耶和华的殿，

And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and brake it down; his altars and his images brake they in pieces thoroughly, and slew Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of the LORD.

11:19 又率领百夫长和迦利人（或作亲兵）与护卫兵，以及国中的众民，请王从耶和华殿下来，由护卫兵的门进入王宫，他就坐了王位。

And he took the rulers over hundreds, and the captains, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of the LORD, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king's house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.

11:20 国民都欢乐，合城都安静。众人已将亚他利雅在王宫那里用刀杀了。

And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was in quiet: and they slew Athaliah with the sword beside the king's house.

11:21 约阿施登基的时候年方七岁。

Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 12 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

12:1 耶户第七年，约阿施登基，在耶路撒冷作王四十年。他母亲名叫西比亚，是别是巴人。

In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.

12:2 约阿施在祭司耶何耶大教训他的时候，就行耶和华眼中看为正的事。

And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the LORD all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.

12:3 只是邱坛还没有废去，百姓仍在那里献祭烧香。

But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.

12:4 约阿施对众祭司说，凡奉到耶和华殿分别为圣之物所值通用的银子，或各人当纳的身价，或乐意奉到耶和华殿的银子，

And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of the LORD, even the money of every one that passeth the account, the money that every man is set at, and all the money that cometh into any man's heart to bring into the house of the LORD,

12:5 你们当从所认识的人收了来，修理殿的一切破坏之处。

Let the priests take it to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.

12:6 无奈到了约阿施王二十三年，祭司仍未修理殿的破坏之处。

But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.

12:7 所以约阿施王召了大祭司耶何耶大和众祭司来，对他们说，你们怎吗不修理殿的破坏之处呢。从今以后，你们不要从所认识的人再收银子，要将所收的交出来，修理殿的破坏之处。

Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.

12:8 众祭司答应不再收百姓的银子，也不修理殿的破坏之处。

And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.

12:9 祭司耶何耶大取了一个柜子，在柜盖上钻了一个窟窿，放于坛旁，在进耶和华殿的右边。守门的祭司将奉到耶和华殿的一切银子投在柜里。

But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh into the house of the LORD: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of the LORD.

12:10 他们见柜里的银子多了，便叫王的书记和大祭司上来，将耶和华殿里的银子数算包起来。

And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king's scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of the LORD.

12:11 把所平的银子交给督工的，就是耶和华殿里办事的人。他们把银子转交修理耶和华殿的木匠和工人，

And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of the LORD: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of the LORD,

12:12 并瓦匠，石匠，又买木料和凿成的石头，修理耶和华殿的破坏之处，以及修理殿的各样使用。

And to masons, and hewers of stone, and to buy timber and hewed stone to repair the breaches of the house of the LORD, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.

12:13 但那奉到耶和华殿的银子，没有用以作耶和华殿里的银杯，腊剪，碗，号，和别样的金银器皿，

Howbeit there were not made for the house of the LORD bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of the LORD:

12:14 乃将那银子交给督工的人修理耶和华的殿。

But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of the LORD.

12:15 且将银子交给办事的人转交作工的人，不与他们算账，因为他们办事诚实。

Moreover they reckoned not with the men, into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.

12:16 惟有赎愆祭，赎罪祭的银子没有奉到耶和华的殿，都归祭司。

The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of the LORD: it was the priests'.

12:17 那时，亚兰王哈薛上来攻打迦特，攻取了，就定意上来攻打耶路撒冷。

Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.

12:18 犹大王约阿施将他列祖犹大王约沙法，约兰，亚哈谢所分别为圣的物和自己所分别为圣的物，并耶和华殿与王宫府库里所有的金子都送给亚兰王哈薛。哈薛就不上耶路撒冷来了。

And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and in the king's house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.

12:19 约阿施其馀的事，凡他所行的都写在犹大列王记上。

And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

12:20 约阿施的臣仆起来背叛，在下悉拉的米罗宫那里将他杀了。

And his servants arose, and made a conspiracy, and slew Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth down to Silla.

12:21 杀他的那臣仆就是示米押的儿子约撒甲和朔默的儿子约萨拔。众人将他葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子亚玛谢接续他作王。

For Jozachar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 13 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

13:1 犹大王亚哈谢的儿子约阿施二十三年，耶户的儿子约哈斯在撒马利亚登基作以色列王十七年。

In the three and twentieth year of Joash the son of Ahaziah king of Judah Jehoahaz the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned seventeen years.

13:2 约哈斯行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪，总不离开。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.

13:3 于是，耶和华的怒气向以色列人发作，将他们屡次交在亚兰王哈薛和他儿子便哈达的手里。

And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, all their days.

13:4 约哈斯恳求耶和华，耶和华就应允他，因为见以色列人所受亚兰王的欺压。

And Jehoahaz besought the LORD, and the LORD hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.

13:5 耶和华赐给以色列人一位拯救者，使他们脱离亚兰人的手。于是以色列人仍旧安居在家里。

(And the LORD gave Israel a saviour, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians: and the children of Israel dwelt in their tents, as beforetime.

13:6 然而他们不离开耶罗波安家使以色列人陷在罪里的那罪，仍然去行，并且在撒马利亚留下亚舍拉。

Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.)

13:7 亚兰王灭绝约哈斯的民，践踏他们如禾场上的尘沙，只给约哈斯留下五十马兵，十辆战车，一万步兵。

Neither did he leave of the people to Jehoahaz but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria had destroyed them, and had made them like the dust by threshing.

13:8 约哈斯其馀的事，凡他所行的和他的勇力都写在以色列诸王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

13:9 约哈斯与他列祖同睡，葬在撒马利亚。他儿子约阿施接续他作王。

And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria: and Joash his son reigned in his stead.

13:10 犹大王约阿施三十七年，约哈斯的儿子约阿施在撒马利亚登基作以色列王十六年。

In the thirty and seventh year of Joash king of Judah began Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned sixteen years.

13:11 他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，不离开尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的一切罪，仍然去行。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin: but he walked therein.

13:12 约阿施其馀的事，凡他所行的和他与犹大王亚玛谢争战的勇力，都写在以色列诸王记上。

And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, and his might wherewith he fought against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

13:13 约阿施与他列祖同睡，耶罗波安坐了他的位。约阿施与以色列诸王一同葬在撒马利亚。

And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

13:14 以利沙得了必死的病，以色列王约阿施下来看他，伏在他脸上哭泣，说，我父阿。我父阿。以色列的战车马兵阿。

Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof.

13:15 以利沙对他说，你取弓箭来。王就取了弓箭来。

And Elisha said unto him, Take bow and arrows. And he took unto him bow and arrows.

13:16 又对以色列王说，你用手拿弓。王就用手拿弓。以利沙按手在王的手上，

And he said to the king of Israel, Put thine hand upon the bow. And he put his hand upon it: and Elisha put his hands upon the king's hands.

13:17 说，你开朝东的窗户。他就开了。以利沙说，射箭吧。他就射箭。以利沙说，这是耶和华的得胜箭，就是战胜亚兰人的箭。因为你必在亚弗攻打亚兰人，直到灭尽他们。

And he said, Open the window eastward. And he opened it. Then Elisha said, Shoot. And he shot. And he said, The arrow of the LORD's deliverance, and the arrow of deliverance from Syria: for thou shalt smite the Syrians in Aphek, till thou have consumed them.

13:18 以利沙又说，取几枝箭来。他就取了来。以利沙说，打地吧。他打了三次，便止住了。

And he said, Take the arrows. And he took them. And he said unto the king of Israel, Smite upon the ground. And he smote thrice, and stayed.

13:19 神人向他发怒，说，应当击打五六次，就能攻打亚兰人直到灭尽。现在只能打败亚兰人三次。

And the man of God was wroth with him, and said, Thou shouldest have smitten five or six times; then hadst thou smitten Syria till thou hadst consumed it: whereas now thou shalt smite Syria but thrice.

13:20 以利沙死了，人将他葬埋。到了新年，有一群摩押人犯境，

And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.

13:21 有人正葬死人，忽然看见一群人，就把死人抛在以利沙的坟墓里，一碰着以利沙的骸骨，死人就复活，站起来了。

And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.

13:22 约哈斯年间，亚兰王哈薛屡次欺压以色列人。

But Hazael king of Syria oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.

13:23 耶和华却因与亚伯拉罕，以撒，雅各所立的约，仍施恩给以色列人，怜恤他们，眷顾他们，不肯灭尽他们，尚未赶逐他们离开自己面前。

And the LORD was gracious unto them, and had compassion on them, and had respect unto them, because of his covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and would not destroy them, neither cast he them from his presence as yet.

13:24 亚兰王哈薛死了，他儿子便哈达接续他作王。

So Hazael king of Syria died; and Benhadad his son reigned in his stead.

13:25 从前哈薛和约阿施的父亲约哈斯争战，攻取了些城邑，现在约哈斯的儿子约阿施三次打败哈薛的儿子便哈达，就收回了以色列的城邑。

And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz took again out of the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael the cities, which he had taken out of the hand of Jehoahaz his father by war. Three times did Joash beat him, and recovered the cities of Israel.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 14 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

14:1 以色列王约哈斯的儿子约阿施第二年，犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢登基。

In the second year of Joash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel reigned Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah.

14:2 他登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王二十九年。他母亲名叫约耶但，是耶路撒冷人。

He was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

14:3 亚玛谢行耶和华眼中看为正的事，但不如他祖大卫，乃效法他父约阿施一切所行的。

And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did.

14:4 只是邱坛还没有废去，百姓仍在那里献祭烧香。

Howbeit the high places were not taken away: as yet the people did sacrifice and burnt incense on the high places.

14:5 国一坚定，就把杀他父王的臣仆杀了，

And it came to pass, as soon as the kingdom was confirmed in his hand, that he slew his servants which had slain the king his father.

14:6 却没有治死杀王之人的儿子，是照摩西律法书上耶和华所吩咐的说，不可因子杀父，也不可因父杀子，各人要为本身的罪而死。

But the children of the murderers he slew not: according unto that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

14:7 亚玛谢在盐谷杀了以东人一万，又攻取了西拉，改名叫约帖，直到今日。

He slew of Edom in the valley of salt ten thousand, and took Selah by war, and called the name of it Joktheel unto this day.

14:8 那时，亚玛谢差遣使者去见耶户的孙子约哈斯的儿子以色列王约阿施，说，你来，我们二人相见于战场。

Then Amaziah sent messengers to Jehoash, the son of Jehoahaz son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, Come, let us look one another in the face.

14:9 以色列王约阿施差遣使者去见犹大王亚玛谢，说，黎巴嫩的蒺藜差遣使者去见黎巴嫩的香柏树，说，将你的女儿给我儿子为妻。后来黎巴嫩有一个野兽经过，把蒺藜践踏了。

And Jehoash the king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, Give thy daughter to my son to wife: and there passed by a wild beast that was in Lebanon, and trode down the thistle.

14:10 你打败了以东人就心高气傲，你以此为荣耀，在家里安居就吧了，为何要惹祸，使自己和犹大国一同败亡呢。

Thou hast indeed smitten Edom, and thine heart hath lifted thee up: glory of this, and tarry at home: for why shouldest thou meddle to thy hurt, that thou shouldest fall, even thou, and Judah with thee?

14:11 亚玛谢却不肯听这话。于是以色列王约阿施上来，在犹大的伯示麦与犹大王亚玛谢相见于战场。

But Amaziah would not hear. Therefore Jehoash king of Israel went up; and he and Amaziah king of Judah looked one another in the face at Bethshemesh, which belongeth to Judah.

14:12 犹大人败在以色列人面前，各自逃回家里去了。

And Judah was put to the worse before Israel; and they fled every man to their tents.

14:13 以色列王约阿施在伯示麦擒住亚哈谢的孙子，约阿施的儿子犹大王亚玛谢，就来到耶路撒冷，拆毁耶路撒冷的城墙，从以法莲门直到角门共四百肘，

And Jehoash king of Israel took Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Jehoash the son of Ahaziah, at Bethshemesh, and came to Jerusalem, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem from the gate of Ephraim unto the corner gate, four hundred cubits.

14:14 又将耶和华殿里与王宫府库里所有的金银和器皿都拿了去，并带人去为质，就回撒马利亚去了。

And he took all the gold and silver, and all the vessels that were found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.

14:15 约阿施其馀所行的事和他的勇力，并与犹大王亚玛谢争战的事，都写在以色列诸王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

14:16 约阿施与他列祖同睡，葬在撒马利亚，以色列诸王的坟地里。他儿子耶罗波安接续他作王。

And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.

14:17 以色列王约哈斯的儿子约阿施死后，犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢又活了十五年。

And Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah lived after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel fifteen years.

14:18 亚玛谢其馀的事都写在犹大列王记上。

And the rest of the acts of Amaziah, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

14:19 耶路撒冷有人背叛亚玛谢，他就逃到拉吉。叛党却打发人到拉吉将他杀了。

Now they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem: and he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish, and slew him there.

He built Elath, and restored it to Judah, after that the king slept with his fathers.

14:23 犹大王约阿施的儿子亚玛谢十五年，以色列王约阿施的儿子耶罗波安在撒马利亚登基，作王四十一年。

In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria, and reigned forty and one years.

14:24 他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，不离开尼八的儿子耶罗波安使以色列人陷在罪里的一切罪。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

14:25 他收回以色列边界之地，从哈马口直到亚拉巴海，正如耶和华以色列的神，藉他仆人迦特希弗人亚米太的儿子先知约拿所说的。

He restored the coast of Israel from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain, according to the word of the LORD God of Israel, which he spake by the hand of his servant Jonah, the son of Amittai, the prophet, which was of Gathhepher.

14:26 因为耶和华看见以色列人甚是艰苦，无论困住的，自由的都没有了，也无人帮助以色列人。

For the LORD saw the affliction of Israel, that it was very bitter: for there was not any shut up, nor any left, nor any helper for Israel.

14:27 耶和华并没有说要将以色列的名从天下涂抹，乃藉约阿施的儿子耶罗波安拯救他们。

And the LORD said not that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.

14:28 耶罗波安其馀的事，凡他所行的和他的勇力，他怎样争战，怎样收回大马士革和先前属犹大的哈马归以色列，都写在以色列诸王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Hamath, which belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

14:29 耶罗波安与他列祖以色列诸王同睡。他儿子撒迦利雅接续他作王。

And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, even with the kings of Israel; and Zachariah his son reigned in his stead.

16:1 利玛利的儿子比加十七年，犹大王约坦的儿子亚哈斯登基。

In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

16:2 他登基的时候年二十岁，在耶路撒冷作王十六年。不像他祖大卫行耶和华他神眼中看为正的事，

Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem, and did not that which was right in the sight of the LORD his God, like David his father.

16:3 却效法以色列诸王所行的，又照着耶和华从以色列人面前赶出的外邦人所行可憎的事，使他的儿子经火，

But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yea, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel.

16:4 并在邱坛上，山冈上，各青翠树下献祭烧香。

And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

16:5 亚兰王利汛和以色列王利玛利的儿子比加上来攻打耶路撒冷，围困亚哈斯，却不能胜他。

Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.

16:6 当时亚兰王利汛收回以拉他归与亚兰，将犹大人从以拉他赶出去。亚兰人（有作以东人的）就来到以拉他，住在那里，直到今日。

At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drave the Jews from Elath: and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there unto this day.

16:7 亚哈斯差遣使者去见亚述王提革拉毗列色，说，我是你的仆人，你的儿子。现在亚兰王和以色列王攻击我，求你来救我脱离他们的手。

So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, which rise up against me.

16:8 亚哈斯将耶和华殿里和王宫府库里所有的金银都送给亚述王为礼物。

And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.

16:9 亚述王应允了他，就上去攻打大马士革，将城攻取，杀了利汛，把居民掳到吉珥。

And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.

16:10 亚哈斯王上大马士革去迎接亚述王提革拉毗列色，在大马士革看见一座坛，就照坛的规模样式作法画了图样，送到祭司乌利亚那里。

And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.

16:11 祭司乌利亚照着亚哈斯王从大马士革送来的图样，在亚哈斯王没有从大马士革回来之先，建筑一座坛。

And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made it against king Ahaz came from Damascus.

16:12 王从大马士革回来看见坛，就近前来，在坛上献祭。

And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king approached to the altar, and offered thereon.

16:13 烧燔祭，素祭，浇奠祭，将平安祭牲的血洒在坛上，

And he burnt his burnt offering and his meat offering, and poured his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, upon the altar.

16:14 又将耶和华面前的铜坛从耶和华殿和新坛的中间搬到新坛的北边。

And he brought also the brasen altar, which was before the LORD, from the forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house of the LORD, and put it on the north side of the altar.

16:15 亚哈斯王吩咐祭司乌利亚说，早晨的燔祭，晚上的素祭，王的燔祭，素祭，国内众民的燔祭，素祭，奠祭都要烧在大坛上。燔祭牲和平安祭牲的血也要洒在这坛上，只是铜坛我要用以求问耶和华。

And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meat offering, and the king's burnt sacrifice, and his meat offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice: and the brasen altar shall be for me to enquire by.

16:16 祭司乌利亚就照着亚哈斯王所吩咐的行了。

Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

16:17 亚哈斯王打掉盆座四面镶着的心子，把盆从座上挪下来，又将铜海从驮海的铜牛上搬下来，放在铺石地。

And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver from off them; and took down the sea from off the brasen oxen that were under it, and put it upon a pavement of stones.

16:18 又因亚述王的缘故，将耶和华殿为安息日所盖的廊子和王从外入殿的廊子挪移，围绕耶和华的殿。

And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he from the house of the LORD for the king of Assyria.

16:19 亚哈斯其馀所行的事都写在犹大列王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

16:20 亚哈斯与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城他列祖的坟地里。他儿子希西家接续他作王。

And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 17 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

17:1 犹大王亚哈斯十二年，以拉的儿子何细亚在撒马利亚登基作以色列王九年。

In the twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah began Hoshea the son of Elah to reign in Samaria over Israel nine years.

17:2 他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，只是不像在他以前的以色列诸王。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, but not as the kings of Israel that were before him.

17:3 亚述王撒缦以色上来攻击何细亚，何细亚就服事他，给他进贡。

Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents.

17:4 何细亚背叛，差人去见埃及王梭，不照往年所行的与亚述王进贡。亚述王知道了，就把他锁禁，囚在监里。

And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.

17:5 亚述王上来攻击以色列遍地，上到撒马利亚，围困三年。

Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, and besieged it three years.

17:6 何细亚第九年亚述王攻取了撒马利亚，将以色列人掳到亚述，把他们安置在哈腊与歌散的哈博河边，并玛代人的城邑。

In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.

17:7 这是因以色列人得罪那领他们出埃及地，脱离埃及王法老手的耶和华他们的神，去敬畏别神，

For so it was, that the children of Israel had sinned against the LORD their God, which had brought them up out of the land of Egypt, from under the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and had feared other gods,

17:8 随从耶和华在他们面前所赶出外邦人的风俗和以色列诸王所立的条规。

And walked in the statutes of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out from before the children of Israel, and of the kings of Israel, which they had made.

17:9 以色列人暗中行不正的事，违背耶和华他们的神，在他们所有的城邑，从了望楼直到坚固城，建筑邱坛。

And the children of Israel did secretly those things that were not right against the LORD their God, and they built them high places in all their cities, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.

17:10 在各高冈上，各青翠树下立柱像和木偶。

And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree:

17:11 在邱坛上烧香，效法耶和华在他们面前赶出的外邦人所行的，又行恶事惹动耶和华的怒气。

And there they burnt incense in all the high places, as did the heathen whom the LORD carried away before them; and wrought wicked things to provoke the LORD to anger:

17:12 且事奉偶像，就是耶和华警戒他们不可行的。

For they served idols, whereof the LORD had said unto them, Ye shall not do this thing.

17:13 但耶和华藉众先知，先见劝戒以色列人和犹大人说，当离开你们的恶行，谨守我的诫命律例，遵行我吩咐你们列祖，并藉我仆人众先知所传给你们的律法。

Yet the LORD testified against Israel, and against Judah, by all the prophets, and by all the seers, saying, Turn ye from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets.

17:14 他们却不听从，竟硬着颈项，效法他们列祖，不信服耶和华他们的神，

Notwithstanding they would not hear, but hardened their necks, like to the neck of their fathers, that did not believe in the LORD their God.

17:15 厌弃他的律例和他与他们列祖所立的约，并劝戒他们的话，随从虚无的神，自己成为虚妄，效法周围的外邦人，就是耶和华嘱咐他们不可效法的。

And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them.

17:16 离弃耶和华他们神的一切诫命，为自己铸了两个牛犊的像，立了亚舍拉，敬拜天上的万象，事奉巴力，

And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal.

17:17 又使他们的儿女经火，用占卜，行法术卖了自己，行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，惹动他的怒气。

And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.

17:18 所以耶和华向以色列人大大发怒，从自己面前赶出他们，只剩下犹大一个支派。

Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.

17:19 犹大人也不遵守耶和华他们神的诫命，随从以色列人所立的条规。

Also Judah kept not the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they made.

17:20 耶和华就厌弃以色列全族，使他们受苦，把他们交在抢夺他们的人手中，以致赶出他们离开自己面前，

And the LORD rejected all the seed of Israel, and afflicted them, and delivered them into the hand of spoilers, until he had cast them out of his sight.

17:21 将以色列国从大卫家夺回。他们就立尼八的儿子耶罗波安作王。耶罗波安引诱以色列人不随从耶和华，陷在大罪里。

For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drave Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.

17:22 以色列人犯耶罗波安所犯的一切罪，总不离开，

For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;

17:23 以致耶和华从自己面前赶出他们，正如藉他仆人众先知所说的。这样，以色列人从本地被掳到亚述，直到今日。

Until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So was Israel carried away out of their own land to Assyria unto this day.

17:24 亚述王从巴比伦，古他，亚瓦，哈马，和西法瓦音迁移人来，安置在撒马利亚的城邑，代替以色列人。他们就得了撒马利亚，住在其中。

And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.

17:25 他们才住那里的时候，不敬畏耶和华，所以耶和华叫狮子进入他们中间，咬死了些人。

And so it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which slew some of them.

17:26 有人告诉亚述王说，你所迁移安置在撒马利亚各城的那些民，不知道那地之神的规矩，所以那神叫狮子进入他们中间，咬死他们。

Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.

17:27 亚述王就吩咐说，叫所掳来的祭司回去一个，使他住在那里，将那地之神的规矩指教那些民。

Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.

17:28 于是有一个从撒马利亚掳去的祭司回来，住在伯特利，指教他们怎样敬畏耶和华。

Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.

17:29 然而，各族之人在所住的城里各为自己制造神像，安置在撒马利亚人所造有邱坛的殿中。

Howbeit every nation made gods of their own, and put them in the houses of the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in their cities wherein they dwelt.

17:30 巴比伦人造疏割比讷像。古他人造匿甲像。哈马人造亚示玛像。

And the men of Babylon made Succothbenoth, and the men of Cuth made Nergal, and the men of Hamath made Ashima,

17:31 亚瓦人造匿哈和他珥他像。西法瓦音人用火焚烧儿女，献给西法瓦音的神亚得米勒和亚拿米勒。

And the Avites made Nibhaz and Tartak, and the Sepharvites burnt their children in fire to Adrammelech and Anammelech, the gods of Sepharvaim.

17:32 他们惧怕耶和华，也从他们中间立邱坛的祭司，为他们在有邱坛的殿中献祭。

So they feared the LORD, and made unto themselves of the lowest of them priests of the high places, which sacrificed for them in the houses of the high places.

17:33 他们又惧怕耶和华，又事奉自己的神，从何邦迁移，就随何邦的风俗。

They feared the LORD, and served their own gods, after the manner of the nations whom they carried away from thence.

17:34 他们直到如今仍照先前的风俗去行，不专心敬畏耶和华，不全守自己的规矩，典章，也不遵守耶和华吩咐雅各后裔的律法，诫命。雅各，就是从前耶和华起名叫以色列的。

Unto this day they do after the former manners: they fear not the LORD, neither do they after their statutes, or after their ordinances, or after the law and commandment which the LORD commanded the children of Jacob, whom he named Israel;

17:35 耶和华曾与他们立约，嘱咐他们说，不可敬畏别神，不可跪拜事奉他，也不可向他献祭。

With whom the LORD had made a covenant, and charged them, saying, Ye shall not fear other gods, nor bow yourselves to them, nor serve them, nor sacrifice to them:

17:36 但那用大能和伸出来的膀臂领你们出埃及地的耶和华，你们当敬畏，跪拜，向他献祭。

But the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt with great power and a stretched out arm, him shall ye fear, and him shall ye worship, and to him shall ye do sacrifice.

17:37 他给你们写的律例，典章，律法，诫命，你们应当永远谨守遵行，不可敬畏别神。

And the statutes, and the ordinances, and the law, and the commandment, which he wrote for you, ye shall observe to do for evermore; and ye shall not fear other gods.

17:38 我耶和华与你们所立的约你们不可忘记，也不可敬畏别神。

And the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods.

17:39 但要敬畏耶和华你们的神，他必救你们脱离一切仇敌的手。

But the LORD your God ye shall fear; and he shall deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.

17:40 他们却不听从，仍照先前的风俗去行。

Howbeit they did not hearken, but they did after their former manner.

17:41 如此这些民又惧怕耶和华，又事奉他们的偶像。他们子子孙孙也都照样行，效法他们的祖宗，直到今日。

So these nations feared the LORD, and served their graven images, both their children, and their children's children: as did their fathers, so do they unto this day.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 18 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

18:1 以色列王以拉的儿子何细亚第三年，犹大王亚哈斯的儿子希西家登基。

Now it came to pass in the third year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Hezekiah the son of Ahaz king of Judah began to reign.

18:2 他登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王二十九年。他母亲名叫亚比，是撒迦利雅的女儿。

Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah.

18:3 希西家行耶和华眼中看为正的事，效法他祖大卫一切所行的。

And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did.

18:4 他废去邱坛，毁坏柱像，砍下木偶，打碎摩西所造的铜蛇，因为到那时以色列人仍向铜蛇烧香。希西家叫铜蛇为铜块（或作人称铜蛇为铜像）。

He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.

18:5 希西家倚靠耶和华以色列的神，在他前后的犹大列王中没有一个及他的。

He trusted in the LORD God of Israel; so that after him was none like him among all the kings of Judah, nor any that were before him.

18:6 因为他专靠耶和华，总不离开，谨守耶和华所吩咐摩西的诫命。

For he clave to the LORD, and departed not from following him, but kept his commandments, which the LORD commanded Moses.

18:7 耶和华与他同在，他无论往何处去尽都亨通。他背叛，不肯事奉亚述王。

And the LORD was with him; and he prospered whithersoever he went forth: and he rebelled against the king of Assyria, and served him not.

18:8 希西家攻击非利士人，直到迦萨，并迦萨的四境，从了望楼到坚固城。

He smote the Philistines, even unto Gaza, and the borders thereof, from the tower of the watchmen to the fenced city.

18:9 希西家王第四年，就是以色列王以拉的儿子何细亚第七年，亚述王撒缦以色上来围困撒马利亚。

And it came to pass in the fourth year of king Hezekiah, which was the seventh year of Hoshea son of Elah king of Israel, that Shalmaneser king of Assyria came up against Samaria, and besieged it.

18:10 过了三年就攻取了城。希西家第六年，以色列王何细亚第九年，撒马利亚被攻取了。

And at the end of three years they took it: even in the sixth year of Hezekiah, that is the ninth year of Hoshea king of Israel, Samaria was taken.

18:11 亚述王将以色列人掳到亚述，把他们安置在哈腊与歌散的哈博河边，并米底亚人的城邑。

And the king of Assyria did carry away Israel unto Assyria, and put them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes:

18:12 都因他们不听从耶和华他们神的话，违背他的约，就是耶和华仆人摩西吩咐他们所当守的。

Because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD their God, but transgressed his covenant, and all that Moses the servant of the LORD commanded, and would not hear them, nor do them.

18:13 希西家王十四年，亚述王西拿基立上来攻击犹大的一切坚固城，将城攻取。

Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them.

18:14 犹大王希西家差人往拉吉去见亚述王，说，我有罪了，求你离开我。凡你罚我的，我必承当。于是亚述王罚犹大王希西家银子三百他连得，金子三十他连得。

And Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria to Lachish, saying, I have offended; return from me: that which thou puttest on me will I bear. And the king of Assyria appointed unto Hezekiah king of Judah three hundred talents of silver and thirty talents of gold.

18:15 希西家就把耶和华殿里和王宫府库里所有的银子都给了他。

And Hezekiah gave him all the silver that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house.

18:16 那时，犹大王希西家将耶和华殿门上的金子，和他自己包在柱上的金子，都刮下来，给了亚述王。

At that time did Hezekiah cut off the gold from the doors of the temple of the LORD, and from the pillars which Hezekiah king of Judah had overlaid, and gave it to the king of Assyria.

18:17 亚述王从拉吉差遣他珥探，拉伯撒利，和拉伯沙基率领大军往耶路撒冷，到希西家王那里去。他们上到耶路撒冷，就站在上池的水沟旁，在漂布地的大路上。

And the king of Assyria sent Tartan and Rabsaris and Rabshakeh from Lachish to king Hezekiah with a great host against Jerusalem. And they went up and came to Jerusalem. And when they were come up, they came and stood by the conduit of the upper pool, which is in the highway of the fuller's field.

18:18 他们呼叫王的时候，就有希勒家的儿子家宰以利亚敬，并书记舍伯那和亚萨的儿子史官约亚，出来见他们。

And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.

18:19 拉伯沙基说，你们去告诉希西家说，亚述大王如此说，你所倚靠的有什么可仗赖的呢。

And Rabshakeh said unto them, Speak ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?

18:20 你说有打仗的计谋和能力，我看不过是虚话。你到底倚靠谁才背叛我呢。

Thou sayest, (but they are but vain words,) I have counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?

18:21 看哪，你所倚靠的埃及是那压伤的苇杖人若靠这杖，就必刺透他的手。埃及王法老向一切倚靠他的人也是这样。

Now, behold, thou trustest upon the staff of this bruised reed, even upon Egypt, on which if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt unto all that trust on him.

18:22 你们若对我说，我们倚靠耶和华我们的神，希西家岂不是将神的邱坛和祭坛废去，且对犹大和耶路撒冷的人说，你们当在耶路撒冷这坛前敬拜吗。

But if ye say unto me, We trust in the LORD our God: is not that he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and hath said to Judah and Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar in Jerusalem?

18:23 现在你把当头给我主亚述王，我给你二千匹马，看你这一面骑马的人够不够。

Now therefore, I pray thee, give pledges to my lord the king of Assyria, and I will deliver thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.

18:24 若不然，怎能打败我主臣仆中最小的军长呢。你竟倚靠埃及的战车马兵吗。

How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?

18:25 现在我上来攻击毁灭这地，岂没有耶和华的意思吗。耶和华吩咐我说，你上去攻击毁灭这地吧。

Am I now come up without the LORD against this place to destroy it? The LORD said to me, Go up against this land, and destroy it.

18:26 希勒家的儿子以利亚敬和舍伯那，并约亚，对拉伯沙基说，求你用亚兰言语和仆人说话，因为我们懂得。不要用犹大言语和我们说话，达到城上百姓的耳中。

Then said Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, and Shebna, and Joah, unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, to thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and talk not with us in the Jews' language in the ears of the people that are on the wall.

18:27 拉伯沙基说，我主差遣我来，岂是单对你和你的主说这些话吗。不也是对这些坐在城上，要与你们一同吃自己粪，喝自己尿的人说吗。

But Rabshakeh said unto them, Hath my master sent me to thy master, and to thee, to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men which sit on the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you?

18:28 于是拉伯沙基站着，用犹大言语大声喊着说，你们当听亚述大王的话。

Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and spake, saying, Hear the word of the great king, the king of Assyria:

18:29 王如此说，你们不要被希西家欺哄了。因他不能救你们脱离我的手。

Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you out of his hand:

18:30 也不要听希西家使你们倚靠耶和华，说耶和华必要拯救我们，这城必不交在亚述王的手中。

Neither let Hezekiah make you trust in the LORD, saying, The LORD will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.

18:31 不要听希西家的话。因亚述王如此说，你们要与我和好，出来投降我，各人就可以吃自己葡萄树和无花果树的果子，喝自己井里的水。

Hearken not to Hezekiah: for thus saith the king of Assyria, Make an agreement with me by a present, and come out to me, and then eat ye every man of his own vine, and every one of his fig tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern:

18:32 等我来领你们到一个地方与你们本地一样，就是有五谷和新酒之地，有粮食和葡萄园之地，有橄榄树和蜂蜜之地，好使你们存活，不至于死。希西家劝导你们，说耶和华必拯救我们；你们不要听他的话。

Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards, a land of oil olive and of honey, that ye may live, and not die: and hearken not unto Hezekiah, when he persuadeth you, saying, The LORD will deliver us.

18:33 列国的神有哪一个救他本国脱离亚述王的手呢。

Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered at all his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria?

18:34 哈马，亚珥拔的神在哪里呢。西法瓦音，希拿，以瓦的神在哪里呢。他们曾救撒马利亚脱离我的手吗。

Where are the gods of Hamath, and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivah? have they delivered Samaria out of mine hand?

18:35 这些国的神有谁曾救自己的国脱离我的手呢。难道耶和华能救耶路撒冷脱离我的手吗。

Who are they among all the gods of the countries, that have delivered their country out of mine hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of mine hand?

18:36 百姓静默不言，并不回答一句，因为王曾吩咐说，不要回答他。

But the people held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not.

18:37 当下，希勒家的儿子家宰以利亚敬和书记舍伯那，并亚萨的儿子史官约亚，都撕裂衣服，来到希西家那里，将拉伯沙基的话告诉了他。

Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 19 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

19:1 希西家王听见，就撕裂衣服，披上麻布，进了耶和华的殿。

And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD.

19:2 使家宰以利亚敬和书记舍伯那，并祭司中的长老，都披上麻布，去见亚摩斯的儿子先知以赛亚，

And he sent Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.

19:3 对他说，希西家如此说，今日是急难，责罚，凌辱的日子，就如妇人将要生产婴孩，却没有力量生产。

And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and blasphemy; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.

19:4 或者耶和华你的神听见拉伯沙基的一切话，就是他主人亚述王打发他来辱骂永生神的话，耶和华你的神听见这话，就发斥责。故此，求你为馀剩的民扬声祷告。

It may be the LORD thy God will hear all the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God; and will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that are left.

19:5 希西家王的臣仆就去见以赛亚。

So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

19:6 以赛亚对他们说，要这样对你们的主人说，耶和华如此说，你听见亚述王的仆人亵渎我的话，不要惧怕。

And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words which thou hast heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

19:7 我必惊动（原文作使灵进入）他的心，他要听见风声就归回本地。我必使他在那里倒在刀下。

Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

19:8 拉伯沙基回去，正遇见亚述王攻打立拿，原来他早听见亚述王拔营离开拉吉。

So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

19:9 亚述王听见人论古实王特哈加说，他出来要与你争战。于是亚述王又打发使者去见希西家，吩咐他们说，

And when he heard say of Tirhakah king of Ethiopia, Behold, he is come out to fight against thee: he sent messengers again unto Hezekiah, saying,

19:10 你们对犹大王希西家如此说，不要听你所倚靠的神欺哄你说，耶路撒冷必不交在亚述王的手中。

Thus shall ye speak to Hezekiah king of Judah, saying, Let not thy God in whom thou trustest deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be delivered into the hand of the king of Assyria.

19:11 你总听说亚述诸王向列国所行的，乃是尽行灭绝，难道你还能得救吗。

Behold, thou hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all lands, by destroying them utterly: and shalt thou be delivered?

19:12 我列祖所毁灭的，就是歌散，哈兰，利色，和属提拉撒的伊甸人，这些国的神何曾拯救这些国呢。

Have the gods of the nations delivered them which my fathers have destroyed; as Gozan, and Haran, and Rezeph, and the children of Eden which were in Thelasar?

19:13 哈马的王，亚珥拔的王，西法瓦音城的王，希拿，和以瓦的王都在哪里呢。

Where is the king of Hamath, and the king of Arpad, and the king of the city of Sepharvaim, of Hena, and Ivah?

19:14 希西家从使者手里接过书信来，看完了，就上耶和华的殿，将书信在耶和华面前晒开。

And Hezekiah received the letter of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up into the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.

19:15 希西家向耶和华祷告说，坐在二基路伯上耶和华以色列的神阿，你是天下万国的神，你曾创造天地。

And Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said, O LORD God of Israel, which dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; thou hast made heaven and earth.

19:16 耶和华阿，求你侧耳而听。耶和华阿，求你睁眼而看。要听西拿基立打发使者来辱骂永生神的话。

LORD, bow down thine ear, and hear: open, LORD, thine eyes, and see: and hear the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent him to reproach the living God.

19:17 耶和华阿，亚述诸王果然使列国和列国之地变为荒凉，

Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,

19:18 将列国的神像都扔在火里。因为它本不是神，乃是人手所造的，是木头石头的，所以灭绝它。

And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.

19:19 耶和华我们的神阿，现在求你救我们脱离亚述王的手，使天下万国都知道惟独你耶和华是神。

Now therefore, O LORD our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD God, even thou only.

19:20 亚摩斯的儿子以赛亚就打发人去见希西家，说，耶和华以色列的神如此说，你既然求我攻击亚述王西拿基立，我已听见了。

Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard.

19:21 耶和华论他这样说，锡安的处女藐视你，嗤笑你。耶路撒冷的女子向你摇头。

This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.

19:22 你辱骂谁。亵渎谁。扬起声来，高举眼目攻击谁呢。乃是攻击以色列的圣者。

Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.

19:23 你藉你的使者辱骂主，并说，我率领许多战车上山顶，到黎巴嫩极深之处。我要砍伐其中高大的香柏树和佳美的松树。我必上极高之处，进入肥田的树林。

By thy messengers thou hast reproached the LORD, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel.

19:24 我已经在外邦挖井喝水。我必用脚掌踏乾埃及的一切河。

I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places.

19:25 耶和华说，我早先所作的，古时所立的，就是现在藉你使坚固城荒废，变为乱堆，这事你岂没有听见吗。

Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.

19:26 所以其中的居民力量甚小，惊惶羞愧。他们像野草，像青菜，如房顶上的草，又如未长成而枯乾的禾稼。

Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the house tops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.

19:27 你坐下，你出去，你进来，你向我发烈怒，我都知道。

But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.

19:28 因你向我发烈怒，又因你狂傲的话达到我耳中，我就要用钩子钩上你的鼻子，把嚼环放在你口里，使你从你来的路转回去。

Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.

19:29 以色列人哪，我赐你们一个证据，你们今年要吃自生的，明年也要吃自长的。至于后年，你们要耕种收割，栽植葡萄园，吃其中的果子。

And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such things as grow of themselves, and in the second year that which springeth of the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruits thereof.

19:30 犹大家所逃脱馀剩的，仍要往下扎根，向上结果。

And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall yet again take root downward, and bear fruit upward.

19:31 必有馀剩的民从耶路撒冷而出。必有逃脱的人从锡安山而来。耶和华的热心必成就这事。

For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the LORD of hosts shall do this.

19:32 所以，耶和华论亚述王如此说，他必不得来到这城，也不在这里射箭，不得拿盾牌到城前，也不筑垒攻城。

Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shield, nor cast a bank against it.

19:33 他从哪条路来，必从那条路回去，必不得来到这城。这是耶和华说的。

By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD.

19:34 因我为自己的缘故，又为我仆人大卫的缘故，必保护拯救这城。

For I will defend this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

19:35 当夜，耶和华的使者出去，在亚述营中杀了十八万五千人。清早有人起来，一看，都是死尸了。

And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

19:36 亚述王西拿基立就拔营回去，住在尼尼微。

So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.

19:37 一日在他的神尼斯洛庙里叩拜，他儿子亚得米勒和沙利色用刀杀了他，就逃到亚拉腊地。他儿子以撒哈顿接续他作王。

And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Armenia. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 20 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

20:1 那时，希西家病得要死。亚摩斯的儿子先知以赛亚去见他，对他说，耶和华如此说，你当留遗命与你的家，因为你必死，不能活了。

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live.

20:2 希西家就转脸朝墙，祷告耶和华说，

Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying,

20:3 耶和华阿，求你记念我在你面前怎样存完全的心，按诚实行事，又作你眼中所看为善的。希西家就痛哭了。

I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.

20:4 以赛亚出来，还没有到中院（院或作城），耶和华的话就临到他，说，

And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

20:5 你回去告诉我民的君希西家说，耶和华你祖大卫的神如此说，我听见了你的祷告，看见了你的眼泪，我必医治你。到第三日，你必上到耶和华的殿。

Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD.

20:6 我必加增你十五年的寿数，并且我要救你和这城脱离亚述王的手。我为自己和我仆人大卫的缘故，必保护这城。

And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

20:7 以赛亚说，当取一块无花果饼来。人就取了来，贴在疮上，王便痊愈了。

And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered.

20:8 希西家问以赛亚说，耶和华必医治我，到第三日，我能上耶和华的殿，有什么兆头呢。

And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?

20:9 以赛亚说，耶和华必成就他所说的。这是他给你的兆头，你要日影向前进十度呢。是要往后退十度呢。

And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

20:10 希西家回答说，日影向前进十度容易，我要日影往后退十度。

And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.

20:11 先知以赛亚求告耶和华，耶和华就使亚哈斯的日晷向前进的日影，往后退了十度。

And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.

20:12 那时，巴比伦王巴拉但的儿子比罗达巴拉但听见希西家病而痊愈，就送书信和礼物给他。

At that time Berodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.

20:13 希西家听从使者的话，就把他宝库的金子，银子，香料，贵重的膏油，和他武库的一切军器，并他所有的财宝，都给他们看。他家中和他全国之内，希西家没有一样不给他们看的。

And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.

20:14 于是先知以赛亚来见希西家王，问他说，这些人说什么。他们从哪里来见你。希西家说，他们从远方的巴比伦来。

Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.

20:15 以赛亚说，他们在你家里看见了什么。希西家说，凡我家中所有的，他们都看见了。我财宝中没有一样不给他们看的。

And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.

20:16 以赛亚对希西家说，你要听耶和华的话，

And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD.

20:17 日子必到，凡你家里所有的，并你列祖积蓄到如今的，都要被掳到巴比伦去，不留下一样。这是耶和华说的。

Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

20:18 并且从你本身所生的众子，其中必有被掳去在巴比伦王宫里当太监的。

And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

20:19 希西家对以赛亚说，你所说耶和华的话甚好。若在我的年日中有太平和稳固的景况，岂不是好吗。

Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days?

20:20 希西家其馀的事和他的勇力，他怎样挖池，挖沟，引水入城，都写在犹大列王记上。

And the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made a pool, and a conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20:21 希西家与他列祖同睡。他儿子玛拿西接续他作王。

And Hezekiah slept with his fathers: and Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 21 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

21:1 玛拿西登基的时候年十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王五十五年。他母亲名叫协西巴。

Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hephzibah.

21:2 玛拿西行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法耶和华在以色列人面前赶出的外邦人所行可憎的事。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, after the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.

21:3 重新建筑他父希西家所毁坏的邱坛，又为巴力筑坛，作亚舍拉像，效法以色列王亚哈所行的，且敬拜事奉天上的万象。

For he built up again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them.

21:4 在耶和华殿宇中筑坛。耶和华曾指着这殿说，我必立我的名在耶路撒冷。

And he built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD said, In Jerusalem will I put my name.

21:5 他在耶和华殿的两院中为天上的万象筑坛，

And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.

21:6 并使他的儿子经火，又观兆，用法术，立交鬼的和行巫术的，多行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，惹动他的怒气。

And he made his son pass through the fire, and observed times, and used enchantments, and dealt with familiar spirits and wizards: he wrought much wickedness in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger.

21:7 又在殿内立雕刻的亚舍拉像。耶和华曾对大卫和他儿子所罗门说，我在以色列众支派中所选择的耶路撒冷和这殿，必立我的名，直到永远。

And he set a graven image of the grove that he had made in the house, of which the LORD said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever:

21:8 以色列人若谨守遵行我一切所吩咐他们的，和我仆人摩西所吩咐他们的一切律法，我就不再使他们挪移离开我所赐给他们列祖之地。

Neither will I make the feet of Israel move any more out of the land which I gave their fathers; only if they will observe to do according to all that I have commanded them, and according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded them.

21:9 他们却不听从。玛拿西引诱他们行恶，比耶和华在以色列人面前所灭的列国更甚。

But they hearkened not: and Manasseh seduced them to do more evil than did the nations whom the LORD destroyed before the children of Israel.

21:10 耶和华藉他仆人众先知说，

And the LORD spake by his servants the prophets, saying,

21:11 因犹大王玛拿西行这些可憎的恶事比先前亚摩利人所行的更甚，使犹大人拜他的偶像，陷在罪里。

Because Manasseh king of Judah hath done these abominations, and hath done wickedly above all that the Amorites did, which were before him, and hath made Judah also to sin with his idols:

21:12 所以耶和华以色列的神如此说，我必降祸与耶路撒冷和犹大，叫一切听见的人无不耳呜。

Therefore thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.

21:13 我必用量撒马利亚的准绳和亚哈家的线铊拉在耶路撒冷上，必擦净耶路撒冷，如人擦盘，将盘倒扣。

And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it, and turning it upside down.

21:14 我必弃掉所馀剩的子民（原文作产业），把他们交在仇敌手中，使他们成为一切仇敌掳掠之物。

And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;

21:15 是因他们自从列祖出埃及直到如今，常行我眼中看为恶的事，惹动我的怒气。

Because they have done that which was evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.

21:16 玛拿西行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，使犹大人陷在罪里，又流许多无辜人的血，充满了耶路撒冷，从这边直到那边。

Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.

21:17 玛拿西其馀的事，凡他所行的和他所犯的罪都写在犹大列王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, and all that he did, and his sin that he sinned, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

21:18 玛拿西与他列祖同睡，葬在自己宫院乌撒的园内。他儿子亚们接续他作王。

And Manasseh slept with his fathers, and was buried in the garden of his own house, in the garden of Uzza: and Amon his son reigned in his stead.

21:19 亚们登基的时候年二十二岁，在耶路撒冷作王二年。他母亲名叫米舒利密，是约提巴人哈鲁斯的女儿。

Amon was twenty and two years old when he began to reign, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah.

21:20 亚们行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，与他父亲玛拿西所行的一样。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh did.

21:21 行他父亲一切所行的，敬奉他父亲所敬奉的偶像，

And he walked in all the way that his father walked in, and served the idols that his father served, and worshipped them:

21:22 离弃耶和华他列祖的神，不遵行耶和华的道。

And he forsook the LORD God of his fathers, and walked not in the way of the LORD.

21:23 亚们王的臣仆背叛他，在宫里杀了他。

And the servants of Amon conspired against him, and slew the king in his own house.

21:24 但国民杀了那些背叛亚们王的人，立他儿子约西亚接续他作王。

And the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.

21:25 亚们其馀所行的事都写在犹大列王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Amon which he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

21:26 亚们葬在乌撒的园内自己的坟墓里。他儿子约西亚接续他作王。

And he was buried in his sepulchre in the garden of Uzza: and Josiah his son reigned in his stead.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 22 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

22:1 约西亚登基的时候年八岁，在耶路撒冷作王三十一年。他母亲名叫耶底大，是波斯加人亚大雅的女儿。

Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Jedidah, the daughter of Adaiah of Boscath.

22:2 约西亚行耶和华眼中看为正的事，行他祖大卫一切所行的，不偏左右。

And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.

22:3 约西亚王十八年，王差遣米书兰的孙子，亚萨利的儿子书记沙番上耶和华殿去，吩咐他说，

And it came to pass in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, that the king sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, the son of Meshullam, the scribe, to the house of the LORD, saying,

22:4 你去见大祭司希勒家，使他将奉到耶和华殿的银子，就是守门的从民中收聚的银子，数算数算，

Go up to Hilkiah the high priest, that he may sum the silver which is brought into the house of the LORD, which the keepers of the door have gathered of the people:

22:5 交给耶和华殿里办事的人，使他们转交耶和华殿里作工的人，好修理殿的破坏之处，

And let them deliver it into the hand of the doers of the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD: and let them give it to the doers of the work which is in the house of the LORD, to repair the breaches of the house,

22:6 就是转交木匠和工人，并瓦匠，又买木料和凿成的石头修理殿宇，

Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house.

22:7 将银子交在办事的人手里，不与他们算帐，因为他们办事诚实。

Howbeit there was no reckoning made with them of the money that was delivered into their hand, because they dealt faithfully.

22:8 大祭司希勒家对书记沙番说，我在耶和华殿里得了律法书。希勒家将书递给沙番，沙番就看了。

And Hilkiah the high priest said unto Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the LORD. And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan, and he read it.

22:9 书记沙番到王那里，回覆王说，你的仆人已将殿里的银子倒出数算，交给耶和华殿里办事的人了。

And Shaphan the scribe came to the king, and brought the king word again, and said, Thy servants have gathered the money that was found in the house, and have delivered it into the hand of them that do the work, that have the oversight of the house of the LORD.

22:10 书记沙番又对王说，祭司希勒家递给我一卷书。沙番就在王面前读那书。

And Shaphan the scribe shewed the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath delivered me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king.

22:11 王听见律法书上的话，便撕裂衣服，

And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes.

22:12 吩咐祭司希勒家与沙番的儿子亚希甘，米该亚的儿子亚革波，书记沙番和王的臣仆亚撒雅，说，

And the king commanded Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Achbor the son of Michaiah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asahiah a servant of the king's, saying,

22:13 你们去为我，为民，为犹大众人，以这书上的话求问耶和华。因为我们列祖没有听从这书上的言语，没有遵着书上所吩咐我们的去行，耶和华就向我们大发烈怒。

Go ye, enquire of the LORD for me, and for the people, and for all Judah, concerning the words of this book that is found: for great is the wrath of the LORD that is kindled against us, because our fathers have not hearkened unto the words of this book, to do according unto all that which is written concerning us.

22:14 于是，祭司希勒家和亚希甘，亚革波，沙番，亚撒雅都去见女先知户勒大。户勒大是掌管礼服沙龙的妻。沙龙是哈珥哈斯的孙子，特瓦的儿子。户勒大住在耶路撒冷第二区。他们请问于她。

So Hilkiah the priest, and Ahikam, and Achbor, and Shaphan, and Asahiah, went unto Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvah, the son of Harhas, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college;) and they communed with her.

22:15 她对他们说，耶和华以色列的神如此说，你们可以回覆那差遣你们来见我的人说，

And she said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Tell the man that sent you to me,

22:16 耶和华如此说，我必照着犹大王所读那书上的一切话，降祸与这地和其上的居民。

Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the words of the book which the king of Judah hath read:

22:17 因为他们离弃我，向别神烧香，用他们手所作的惹我发怒，所以我的忿怒必向这地发作，总不止息。

Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.

22:18 然而，差遣你们来求问耶和华的犹大王，你们要这样回覆他说，耶和华以色列的神如此说，至于你所听见的话，

But to the king of Judah which sent you to enquire of the LORD, thus shall ye say to him, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, As touching the words which thou hast heard;

22:19 就是听见我指着这地和其上的居民所说，要使这地变为荒场，民受咒诅的话，你便心里敬服，在我面前自卑，撕裂衣服，向我哭泣，因此我应允了你。这是我耶和华说的。

Because thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the LORD, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith the LORD.

22:20 我必使你平平安安地归到坟墓到你列祖那里。我要降与这地的一切灾祸，你也不至亲眼看见。他们就回覆王去了。

Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 23 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

23:1 王差遣人招聚犹大和耶路撒冷的众长老来。

And the king sent, and they gathered unto him all the elders of Judah and of Jerusalem.

23:2 王和犹大众人与耶路撒冷的居民，并祭司，先知，和所有的百姓，无论大小，都一同上到耶和华的殿。王就把耶和华殿里所得的约书念给他们听。

And the king went up into the house of the LORD, and all the men of Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem with him, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the people, both small and great: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant which was found in the house of the LORD.

23:3 王站在柱旁，在耶和华面前立约，要尽心尽性地顺从耶和华，遵守他的诫命，法度，律例，成就这书上所记的约言。众民都服从这约。

And the king stood by a pillar, and made a covenant before the LORD, to walk after the LORD, and to keep his commandments and his testimonies and his statutes with all their heart and all their soul, to perform the words of this covenant that were written in this book. And all the people stood to the covenant.

23:4 王吩咐大祭司希勒家和副祭司，并把门的，将那为巴力和亚舍拉，并天上万象所造的器皿，都从耶和华殿里搬出来，在耶路撒冷外汲沦溪旁的田间烧了，把灰拿到伯特利去。

And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Bethel.

23:5 从前犹大列王所立拜偶像的祭司，在犹大城邑的邱坛和耶路撒冷的周围烧香，现在王都废去，又废去向巴力和日，月，行星（或作十二宫），并天上万象烧香的人。

And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.

23:6 又从耶和华殿里将亚舍拉搬到耶路撒冷外汲沦溪边焚烧，打碎成灰，将灰撒在平民的坟上。

And he brought out the grove from the house of the LORD, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people.

23:7 又拆毁耶和华殿里娈童的屋子，就是妇女为亚舍拉织帐子的屋子，

And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove.

23:8 并且从犹大的城邑带众祭司来，污秽祭司烧香的邱坛，从迦巴直到别是巴，又拆毁城门旁的邱坛，这邱坛在邑宰约书亚门前，进城门的左边。

And he brought all the priests out of the cities of Judah, and defiled the high places where the priests had burned incense, from Geba to Beersheba, and brake down the high places of the gates that were in the entering in of the gate of Joshua the governor of the city, which were on a man's left hand at the gate of the city.

23:9 但是邱坛的祭司不登耶路撒冷耶和华的坛，只在他们弟兄中间吃无酵饼。

Nevertheless the priests of the high places came not up to the altar of the LORD in Jerusalem, but they did eat of the unleavened bread among their brethren.

23:10 又污秽欣嫩子谷的陀斐特，不许人在那里使儿女经火献给摩洛。

And he defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech.

23:11 又将犹大列王在耶和华殿门旁，太监拿单米勒靠近游廊的屋子，向日头所献的马废去，且用火焚烧日车。

And he took away the horses that the kings of Judah had given to the sun, at the entering in of the house of the LORD, by the chamber of Nathanmelech the chamberlain, which was in the suburbs, and burned the chariots of the sun with fire.

23:12 犹大列王在亚哈斯楼顶上所筑的坛和玛拿西在耶和华殿两院中所筑的坛，王都拆毁打碎了，就把灰倒在汲沦溪中。

And the altars that were on the top of the upper chamber of Ahaz, which the kings of Judah had made, and the altars which Manasseh had made in the two courts of the house of the LORD, did the king beat down, and brake them down from thence, and cast the dust of them into the brook Kidron.

23:13 从前以色列王所罗门在耶路撒冷前，邪僻山右边为西顿人可憎的神亚斯她录，摩押人可憎的神基抹，亚扪人可憎的神米勒公所筑的邱坛，王都污秽了，

And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.

23:14 又打碎柱像，砍下木偶，将人的骨头充满了那地方。

And he brake in pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men.

23:15 他将伯特利的坛，就是叫以色列人陷在罪里，尼八的儿子耶罗波安所筑的那坛，都拆毁焚烧，打碎成灰，并焚烧了亚舍拉。

Moreover the altar that was at Bethel, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he brake down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove.

23:16 约西亚回头，看见山上的坟墓，就打发人将坟墓里的骸骨取出来，烧在坛上，污秽了坛，正如从前神人宣传耶和华的话。

And as Josiah turned himself, he spied the sepulchres that were there in the mount, and sent, and took the bones out of the sepulchres, and burned them upon the altar, and polluted it, according to the word of the LORD which the man of God proclaimed, who proclaimed these words.

23:17 约西亚问说，我所看见的是什么碑。那城里的人回答说，先前有神人从犹大来，预先说王现在向伯特利坛所行的事，这就是他的墓碑。

Then he said, What title is that that I see? And the men of the city told him, It is the sepulchre of the man of God, which came from Judah, and proclaimed these things that thou hast done against the altar of Bethel.

23:18 约西亚说，由他吧。不要挪移他的骸骨。他们就不动他的骸骨，也不动从撒马利亚来那先知的骸骨。

And he said, Let him alone; let no man move his bones. So they let his bones alone, with the bones of the prophet that came out of Samaria.

23:19 从前以色列诸王在撒马利亚的城邑建筑邱坛的殿，惹动耶和华的怒气，现在约西亚都废去了，就如他在伯特利所行的一般。

And all the houses also of the high places that were in the cities of Samaria, which the kings of Israel had made to provoke the Lord to anger, Josiah took away, and did to them according to all the acts that he had done in Bethel.

23:20 又将邱坛的祭司都杀在坛上，并在坛上烧人的骨头，就回耶路撒冷去了。

And he slew all the priests of the high places that were there upon the altars, and burned men's bones upon them, and returned to Jerusalem.

23:21 王吩咐众民说，你们当照这约书上所写的，向耶和华你们的神守逾越节。

And the king commanded all the people, saying, Keep the passover unto the LORD your God, as it is written in the book of this covenant.

23:22 自从士师治理以色列人和以色列王，犹大王的时候，直到如今，实在没有守过这样的逾越节。

Surely there was not holden such a passover from the days of the judges that judged Israel, nor in all the days of the kings of Israel, nor of the kings of Judah;

23:23 只有约西亚王十八年在耶路撒冷向耶和华守这逾越节。

But in the eighteenth year of king Josiah, wherein this passover was holden to the LORD in Jerusalem.

23:24 凡犹大国和耶路撒冷所有交鬼的，行巫术的，与家中的神像和偶像，并一切可憎之物，约西亚尽都除掉，成就了祭司希勒家在耶和华殿里所得律法书上所写的话。

Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD.

23:25 在约西亚以前没有王像他尽心，尽性，尽力地归向耶和华，遵行摩西的一切律法。在他以后也没有兴起一个王像他。

And like unto him was there no king before him, that turned to the LORD with all his heart, and with all his soul, and with all his might, according to all the law of Moses; neither after him arose there any like him.

23:26 然而，耶和华向犹大所发猛烈的怒气仍不止息，是因玛拿西诸事惹动他。

Notwithstanding the LORD turned not from the fierceness of his great wrath, wherewith his anger was kindled against Judah, because of all the provocations that Manasseh had provoked him withal.

23:27 耶和华说，我必将犹大人从我面前赶出，如同赶出以色列人一般。我必弃掉我从前所选择的这城耶路撒冷和我所说立我名的殿。

And the LORD said, I will remove Judah also out of my sight, as I have removed Israel, and will cast off this city Jerusalem which I have chosen, and the house of which I said, My name shall be there.

23:28 约西亚其馀的事，凡他所行的都写在犹大列王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Josiah, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

23:29 约西亚年间，埃及王法老尼哥上到幼发拉底河攻击亚述王。约西亚王去抵挡他。埃及王遇见约西亚在米吉多，就杀了他。

In his days Pharaohnechoh king of Egypt went up against the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates: and king Josiah went against him; and he slew him at Megiddo, when he had seen him.

23:30 他的臣仆用车将他的尸首从米吉多送到耶路撒冷，葬在他自己的坟墓里。国民膏约西亚的儿子约哈斯接续他父亲作王。

And his servants carried him in a chariot dead from Megiddo, and brought him to Jerusalem, and buried him in his own sepulchre. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and anointed him, and made him king in his father's stead.

23:31 约哈斯登基的时候年二十三岁，在耶路撒冷作王三个月。他母亲名叫哈慕她，是立拿人耶利米的女儿。

Jehoahaz was twenty and three years old when he began to reign; and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

23:32 约哈斯行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法他列祖一切所行的。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.

23:33 法老尼哥将约哈斯锁禁在哈马地的利比拉，不许他在耶路撒冷作王，又罚犹大国银子一百他连得，金子一他连得。

And Pharaohnechoh put him in bands at Riblah in the land of Hamath, that he might not reign in Jerusalem; and put the land to a tribute of an hundred talents of silver, and a talent of gold.

23:34 法老尼哥立约西亚的儿子以利亚敬接续他父亲约西亚作王，给他改名叫约雅敬，却将约哈斯带到埃及，他就死在那里。

And Pharaohnechoh made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in the room of Josiah his father, and turned his name to Jehoiakim, and took Jehoahaz away: and he came to Egypt, and died there.

23:35 约雅敬将金银给法老，遵着法老的命向国民徵取金银，按着各人的力量派定，索要金银，好给法老尼哥。

And Jehoiakim gave the silver and the gold to Pharaoh; but he taxed the land to give the money according to the commandment of Pharaoh: he exacted the silver and the gold of the people of the land, of every one according to his taxation, to give it unto Pharaohnechoh.

23:36 约雅敬登基的时候年二十五岁，在耶路撒冷作王十一年。他母亲名叫西布大，是鲁玛人毗大雅的女儿。

Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Zebudah, the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.

23:37 约雅敬行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法他列祖一切所行的。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his fathers had done.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 24 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

24:1 约雅敬年间，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒上到犹大。约雅敬服事他三年，然后背叛他。

In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him.

24:2 耶和华使迦勒底军，亚兰军，摩押军，和亚扪人的军来攻击约雅敬，毁灭犹大，正如耶和华藉他仆人众先知所说的。

And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servants the prophets.

24:3 这祸临到犹大人，诚然是耶和华所命的，要将他们从自己面前赶出，是因玛拿西所犯的一切罪。

Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;

24:4 又因他流无辜人的血，充满了耶路撒冷。耶和华决不肯赦免。

And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon.

24:5 约雅敬其馀的事，凡他所行的都写在犹大列王记上。

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

24:6 约雅敬与他列祖同睡。他儿子约雅斤接续他作王。

So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.

24:7 埃及王不再从他国中出来。因为巴比伦王将埃及王所管之地，从埃及小河直到幼发拉底河都夺去了。

And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt.

24:8 约雅斤登基的时候年十八岁，在耶路撒冷作王三个月。他母亲名叫尼护施她，是耶路撒冷人以利拿单的女儿。

Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. And his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.

24:9 约雅斤行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，效法他父亲一切所行的。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father had done.

24:10 那时，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒的军兵上到耶路撒冷，围困城。

At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.

24:11 当他军兵围困城的时候，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒就亲自来了。

And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it.

24:12 犹大王约雅斤和他母亲，臣仆，首领，太监一同出城，投降巴比伦王。巴比伦王便拿住他。那时是巴比伦王第八年。

And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.

24:13 巴比伦王将耶和华殿和王宫里的宝物都拿去了，将以色列王所罗门所造耶和华殿里的金器都毁坏了，正如耶和华所说的。

And he carried out thence all the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the LORD, as the LORD had said.

24:14 又将耶路撒冷的众民和众首领，并所有大能的勇士，共一万人，连一切木匠，铁匠都掳了去。除了国中极贫穷的人以外，没有剩下的。

And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.

24:15 并将约雅斤和王母，后妃，太监，与国中的大官，都从耶路撒冷掳到巴比伦去了。

And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his officers, and the mighty of the land, those carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.

24:16 又将一切勇士七千人和木匠，铁匠一千人，都是能上阵的勇士，全掳到巴比伦去了。

And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.

24:17 巴比伦王立约雅斤的叔叔玛探雅代替他作王，给玛探雅改名叫西底家。

And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.

24:18 西底家登基的时候年二十一岁，在耶路撒冷作王十一年。他母亲名叫哈慕她，是立拿人耶利米的女儿。

Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.

24:19 西底家行耶和华眼中看为恶的事，是照约雅敬一切所行的。

And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.

24:20 因此耶和华的怒气在耶路撒冷和犹大发作，以致将人民从自己面前赶出。

For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.

 

旧约 -- 列王记下(2 Kings) -- 第 25 章 ( 本篇共有 25 章 ) 　

25:1 西底家背叛巴比伦王。他作王第九年十月初十日，巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒率领全军来攻击耶路撒冷，对城安营，四围筑垒攻城。

And it came to pass in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth month, in the tenth day of the month, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he, and all his host, against Jerusalem, and pitched against it; and they built forts against it round about.

25:2 于是城被围困，直到西底家王十一年。

And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.

25:3 四月初九日，城里有大饥荒，甚至百姓都没有粮食。

And on the ninth day of the fourth month the famine prevailed in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the land.

25:4 城被攻破，一切兵丁就在夜间从靠近王园两城中间的门逃跑。迦勒底人正在四围攻城，王就向亚拉巴逃走。

And the city was broken up, and all the men of war fled by night by the way of the gate between two walls, which is by the king's garden: (now the Chaldees were against the city round about:) and the king went the way toward the plain.

25:5 迦勒底的军队追赶王，在耶利哥的平原追上他。他的全军都离开他四散了。

And the army of the Chaldees pursued after the king, and overtook him in the plains of Jericho: and all his army were scattered from him.

25:6 迦勒底人就拿住王，带他到在利比拉的巴比伦王那里审判他。

So they took the king, and brought him up to the king of Babylon to Riblah; and they gave judgment upon him.

25:7 在西底家眼前杀了他的众子，并且剜了西底家的眼睛，用铜链锁着他，带到巴比伦去。

And they slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes, and put out the eyes of Zedekiah, and bound him with fetters of brass, and carried him to Babylon.

25:8 巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒十九年五月初七日，巴比伦王的臣仆，护卫长尼布撒拉旦来到耶路撒冷，

And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:

25:9 用火焚烧耶和华的殿和王宫，又焚烧耶路撒冷的房屋，就是各大户家的房屋。

And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire.

25:10 跟从护卫长迦勒底的全军就拆毁耶路撒冷四围的城墙。

And all the army of the Chaldees, that were with the captain of the guard, brake down the walls of Jerusalem round about.

25:11 那时护卫长尼布撒拉旦将城里所剩下的百姓，并已经投降巴比伦王的人，以及大众所剩下的人，都掳去了。

Now the rest of the people that were left in the city, and the fugitives that fell away to the king of Babylon, with the remnant of the multitude, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry away.

25:12 但护卫长留下些民中最穷的，使他们修理葡萄园，耕种田地。

But the captain of the guard left of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and husbandmen.

25:13 耶和华殿的铜柱，并耶和华殿的盆座和铜海，迦勒底人都打碎了，将那铜运到巴比伦去了，

And the pillars of brass that were in the house of the LORD, and the bases, and the brasen sea that was in the house of the LORD, did the Chaldees break in pieces, and carried the brass of them to Babylon.

25:14 又带去锅，铲子，腊剪，调羹，并所用的一切铜器，

And the pots, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and the spoons, and all the vessels of brass wherewith they ministered, took they away.

25:15 火鼎，碗，无论金的银的，护卫长也都带去了。

And the firepans, and the bowls, and such things as were of gold, in gold, and of silver, in silver, the captain of the guard took away.

25:16 所罗门为耶和华殿所造的两根铜柱，一个铜海，和几个盆座，这一切的铜，多得无法可称。

The two pillars, one sea, and the bases which Solomon had made for the house of the LORD; the brass of all these vessels was without weight.

25:17 这一根柱子高十八肘，柱上有铜顶，高三肘。铜顶的周围有网子和石榴，都是铜的。那一根柱子，照此一样，也有网子。

The height of the one pillar was eighteen cubits, and the chapiter upon it was brass: and the height of the chapiter three cubits; and the wreathen work, and pomegranates upon the chapiter round about, all of brass: and like unto these had the second pillar with wreathen work.

25:18 护卫长拿住大祭司西莱雅，副祭司西番亚，和三个把门的，

And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest, and the three keepers of the door:

25:19 又从城中拿住一个管理兵丁的官（或作太监），并在城里所遇常见王面的五个人和检点国民军长的书记，以及城里遇见的国民六十个人。

And out of the city he took an officer that was set over the men of war, and five men of them that were in the king's presence, which were found in the city, and the principal scribe of the host, which mustered the people of the land, and threescore men of the people of the land that were found in the city:

25:20 护卫长尼布撒拉旦将这些人带到在利比拉的巴比伦王那里。

And Nebuzaradan captain of the guard took these, and brought them to the king of Babylon to Riblah:

25:21 巴比伦王就把他们击杀在哈马地的利比拉。这样，犹大人被掳去离开本地。

And the king of Babylon smote them, and slew them at Riblah in the land of Hamath. So Judah was carried away out of their land.

25:22 至于犹大国剩下的民，就是巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒所剩下的，巴比伦王立了沙番的孙子，亚希甘的儿子基大利作他们的省长。

And as for the people that remained in the land of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had left, even over them he made Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, ruler.

25:23 众军长和属他们的人听见巴比伦王立了基大利作省长，于是军长尼探雅的儿子以实玛利，加利亚的儿子约哈难，尼陀法人单户蔑的儿子西莱雅，玛迦人的儿子雅撒尼亚，和属他们的人都到米斯巴见基大利。

And when all the captains of the armies, they and their men, heard that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah governor, there came to Gedaliah to Mizpah, even Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan the son of Careah, and Seraiah the son of Tanhumeth the Netophathite, and Jaazaniah the son of a Maachathite, they and their men.

25:24 基大利向他们和属他们的人起誓说，你们不必惧怕迦勒底臣仆，只管住在这地服事巴比伦王，就可以得福。

And Gedaliah sware to them, and to their men, and said unto them, Fear not to be the servants of the Chaldees: dwell in the land, and serve the king of Babylon; and it shall be well with you.

25:25 七月间，宗室以利沙玛的孙子，尼探雅的儿子以实玛利带着十个人来，杀了基大利和同他在米斯巴的犹大人与迦勒底人。

But it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, came, and ten men with him, and smote Gedaliah, that he died, and the Jews and the Chaldees that were with him at Mizpah.

25:26 于是众民，无论大小，连众军长。因为惧怕迦勒底人，都起身往埃及去了。

And all the people, both small and great, and the captains of the armies, arose, and came to Egypt: for they were afraid of the Chaldees.

25:27 犹大王约雅斤被掳后三十七年，巴比伦王以未米罗达元年十二月二十七日，使犹大王约雅斤抬头，提他出监。

And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;

25:28 又对他说恩言，使他的位高过与他一同在巴比伦众王的位，

And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon;

25:29 给他脱了囚服。他终身常在巴比伦王面前吃饭。

And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before him all the days of his life.

25:30 王赐他所需用的食物，日日赐他一分，终身都是这样。

And his allowance was a continual allowance given him of the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
