旧约 撒母耳记上(1 Samuel)：第1章 第2章 第3章 第4章 第5章 第6章 第7章 第8章 第9章 第10章 第11章 第12章 第13章 第14章 第15章 第16章 第17章 第18章 第19章 第20章 第21章 第22章 第23章 第24章 第25章 第26章 第27章 第28章 第29章 第30章 第31章

第1段

哈拿祷告说，我的心因耶和华快乐。我的角因耶和华高举。我的口向仇敌张开。我因耶和华的救恩欢欣。
And Hannah prayed, and said, My heart rejoiceth in the LORD, mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation.

第2段

只有耶和华为圣。除他以外没有可比的，也没有磐石像我们的神。
There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.

第3段

人不要夸口说骄傲的话，也不要出狂妄的言语。因耶和华是大有智识的神，人的行为被他衡量。
Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed.

第4段

勇士的弓都已折断。跌倒的人以力量束腰。
The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength.

第5段

素来饱足的，反作用人求食。饥饿的，再不饥饿。不生育的，生了七个儿子。多有儿女的，反倒衰微。
They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that were hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble.

第6段

耶和华使人死，也使人活，使人下阴间，也使人往上升。
The LORD killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up.

第7段

他使人贫穷，也使人富足，使人卑微，也使人高贵。
The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.

第8段

他从灰尘里抬举贫寒人，从粪堆中提拔穷乏人，使他们与王子同坐，得着荣耀的座位。地的柱子属于耶和华。他将世界立在其上。
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD's, and he hath set the world upon them.

第9段

他必保护圣民的脚步，使恶人在黑暗中寂然不动。人都不能靠力量得胜。
He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.

第10段

与耶和华争竞的，必被打碎。耶和华必从天上以雷攻击他，必审判地极的人，将力量赐与所立的王，高举受膏者的角。
The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the LORD shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.

第11段

以利加拿往拉玛回家去了。那孩子在祭司以利面前事奉耶和华。
And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the LORD before Eli the priest.

第12段

以利的两个儿子是恶人，不认识耶和华。
Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the LORD.

第13段

这二祭司待百姓是这样的规矩，凡有人献祭，正煮肉的时候，祭司的仆人就来，手拿三齿的叉子，
And the priests' custom with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was in seething, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;

第14段

将叉子往罐里，或鼎里，或釜里，或锅里一插，插上来的肉，祭司都取了去。凡上到示罗的以色列人，他们都是这样看待。
And he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the fleshhook brought up the priest took for himself. So they did in Shiloh unto all the Israelites that came thither.

第15段

又在未烧脂油以前，祭司的仆人就来对献祭的人说，将肉给祭司，叫他烤吧。他不要煮过的，要生的。
Also before they burnt the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have sodden flesh of thee, but raw.

第16段

献祭的人若说，必须先烧脂油，然后你可以随意取肉。仆人就说，你立时给我，不然我便抢去。
And if any man said unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat presently, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would answer him, Nay; but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force.

第17段

如此，这二少年人的罪在耶和华面前甚重了，因为他们藐视耶和华的祭物（或作他们使人厌弃给耶和华献祭）。
Wherefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD: for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.

第18段

那时，撒母耳还是孩子，穿着细麻布的以弗得，侍立在耶和华面前。
But Samuel ministered before the LORD, being a child, girded with a linen ephod.

第19段

他母亲每年为他作一件小外袍，同着丈夫上来献年祭的时候带来给他。
Moreover his mother made him a little coat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.

第20段

以利为以利加拿和他的妻祝福，说，愿耶和华由这妇人再赐你后裔，代替你从耶和华求来的孩子。他们就回本乡去了。
And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to the LORD. And they went unto their own home.

第21段

耶和华眷顾哈拿，她就怀孕生了三个儿子，两个女儿。那孩子撒母耳在耶和华面前渐渐长大。
And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived, and bare three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.

第22段

以利年甚老迈，听见他两个儿子待以色列众人的事，又听见他们与会幕门前伺候的妇人苟合，
Now Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel; and how they lay with the women that assembled at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.

第23段

他就对他们说，你们为何行这样的事呢。我从这众百姓听见你们的恶行。
And he said unto them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil dealings by all this people.

第24段

我儿阿，不可这样。我听见你们的风声不好，你们使耶和华的百姓犯了罪。
Nay, my sons; for it is no good report that I hear: ye make the LORD's people to transgress.

第25段

人若得罪人，有士师审判他。人若得罪耶和华，谁能为他祈求呢。然而他们还是不听父亲的话，因为耶和华想要杀他们。
If one man sin against another, the judge shall judge him: but if a man sin against the LORD, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto the voice of their father, because the LORD would slay them.

第26段

孩子撒母耳渐渐长大，耶和华与人越发喜爱他。
And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.

第27段

有神人来见以利，对他说，耶和华如此说，你祖父在埃及法老家作奴仆的时候，我不是向他们显现吗。
And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I plainly appear unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?

第28段

在以色列众支派中，我不是拣选人作我的祭司，使他烧香，在我坛上献祭，在我面前穿以弗得，又将以色列人所献的火祭都赐给你父家吗。
And did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all the offerings made by fire of the children of Israel?

第29段

我所吩咐献在我居所的祭物，你们为何践踏。尊重你的儿子过于尊重我，将我民以色列所献美好的祭物肥己呢。
Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?

第30段

因此，耶和华以色列的神说，我曾说，你和你父家必永远行在我面前。现在我却说，决不容你们这样行。因为尊重我的，我必重看他。藐视我的，他必被轻视。
Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed.

第31段

日子必到，我要折断你的膀臂和你父家的膀臂，使你家中没有一个老年人。
Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thine house.

第32段

在神使以色列人享福的时候，你必看见我居所的败落。在你家中必永远没有一个老年人。
And thou shalt see an enemy in my habitation, in all the wealth which God shall give Israel: and there shall not be an old man in thine house for ever.

第33段

我必不从我坛前灭尽你家中的人。那未灭的必使你眼目乾瘪，心中忧伤。你家中所生的人都必死在中年。
And the man of thine, whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thine heart: and all the increase of thine house shall die in the flower of their age.

第34段

你的两个儿子何弗尼，非尼哈所遭遇的事可作你的证据，他们二人必一日同死。
And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.

第35段

我要为自己立一个忠心的祭司。他必照我的心意而行。我要为他建立坚固的家。他必永远行在我的受膏者面前。
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in mine heart and in my mind: and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed for ever.

第36段

你家所剩下的人都必来叩拜他，求块银子，求个饼，说，求你赐我祭司的职分，好叫我得点饼吃。
And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left in thine house shall come and crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a piece of bread.
