Chapter 6

1 And the sons1121 of the prophets5030 said559 unto413 Elisha,477 Behold2009 now,4994 the place4725 where834 8033 we587 dwell3427 with6440 thee is too strait6862 for4480 us.

2 Let us go,1980 we pray thee,4994 unto5704 Jordan,3383 and take3947 thence4480 8033 every man376 a259 beam,6982 and let us make6213 us a place4725 there,8033 where8033 we may dwell.3427 And he answered,559 Go1980 ye.

3 And one259 said,559 Be content,2974 I pray thee,4994 and go1980 with854 thy servants.5650 And he answered,559 I589 will go.1980

4 So he went1980 with854 them. And when they came935 to Jordan,3383 they cut down1504 wood.6086

5 But as one259 was1961 felling5307 a beam,6982 the axe head1270 fell5307 into413 the water:4325 and he cried,6817 and said,559 Alas,162 master!113 for it1931 was borrowed.7592

6 And the man376 of God430 said,559 Where575 fell5307 it? And he showed7200 him853 the place.4725 And he cut down7094 a stick,6086 and cast7993 it in thither;8033 and the iron1270 did swim.6687

7 Therefore said559 he, Take it up7311 to thee. And he put out7971 his hand,3027 and took3947 it.

8 Then the king4428 of Syria758 warred3898 against Israel,3478 and took counsel3289 with413 his servants,5650 saying,559 In413 such and such6423 492 a place4725 shall be my camp.8466

9 And the man376 of God430 sent7971 unto413 the king4428 of Israel,3478 saying,559 Beware8104 that thou pass not4480 5674 such2088 a place;4725 for3588 thither8033 the Syrians758 are come down.5185

10 And the king4428 of Israel3478 sent7971 to413 the place4725 which834 the man376 of God430 told559 him and warned2094 him of, and saved himself8104 there,8033 not3808 once259 nor3808 twice.8147

11 Therefore the heart3820 of the king4428 of Syria758 was sore troubled5590 for5921 this2088 thing;1697 and he called7121 413 his servants,5650 and said559 unto413 them, Will ye not3808 show5046 me which4310 of4480 7495 us is for413 the king4428 of Israel?3478

12 And one259 of his servants4480 5650 said,559 None,3808 my lord,113 O king:4428 but3588 Elisha,477 the prophet5030 that834 is in Israel,3478 telleth5046 the king4428 of Israel3478 853 the words1697 that834 thou speakest1696 in thy bedchamber.2315 4904

13 And he said,559 Go1980 and spy7200 where351 he1931 is, that I may send7971 and fetch3947 him. And it was told5046 him, saying,559 Behold,2009 he is in Dothan.1886

14 Therefore sent7971 he thither8033 horses,5483 and chariots,7393 and a great3515 host:2428 and they came935 by night,3915 and compassed5362 5921 the city5892 about.

15 And when the servant8334 of the man376 of God430 was risen6965 early,7925 and gone forth,3318 behold,2009 a host2428 compassed5437 853 the city5892 both with horses5483 and chariots.7393 And his servant5288 said559 unto413 him, Alas,162 my master!113 how349 shall we do?6213

16 And he answered,559 Fear3372 not:408 for3588 they that834 be with854 us are more7227 than they that4480 834 be with854 them.

17 And Elisha477 prayed,6419 and said,559 LORD,3068 I pray thee,4994 open6491 853 his eyes,5869 that he may see.7200 And the LORD3068 opened6491 853 the eyes5869 of the young man;5288 and he saw:7200 and, behold,2009 the mountain2022 was full4390 of horses5483 and chariots7393 of fire784 round about5439 Elisha.477

18 And when they came down3381 to413 him, Elisha477 prayed6419 unto413 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Smite5221 853 this2088 people,1471 I pray thee,4994 with blindness.5575 And he smote5221 them with blindness5575 according to the word1697 of Elisha.477

19 And Elisha477 said559 unto413 them, This2088 is not3808 the way,1870 neither3808 is this2090 the city:5892 follow1980 310 me, and I will bring1980 you to413 the man376 whom834 ye seek.1245 But he led1980 them to Samaria.8111

20 And it came to pass,1961 when they were come935 into Samaria,8111 that Elisha477 said,559 LORD,3068 open6491 853 the eyes5869 of these428 men, that they may see.7200 And the LORD3068 opened6491 853 their eyes,5869 and they saw;7200 and, behold,2009 they were in the midst8432 of Samaria.8111

21 And the king4428 of Israel3478 said559 unto413 Elisha,477 when he saw7200 them, My father,1 shall I smite5221 them? shall I smite5221 them?

22 And he answered,559 Thou shalt not3808 smite5221 them: wouldest thou859 smite5221 those whom834 thou hast taken captive7617 with thy sword2719 and with thy bow?7198 set7760 bread3899 and water4325 before6440 them, that they may eat398 and drink,8354 and go1980 to413 their master.113

23 And he prepared3739 great1419 provision3740 for them: and when they had eaten398 and drunk,8354 he sent them away,7971 and they went1980 to413 their master.113 So the bands1416 of Syria758 came935 no3808 more3254 5750 into the land776 of Israel.3478

24 And it came to pass1961 after310 this,3651 that Ben-hadad1130 king4428 of Syria758 gathered6908 853 all3605 his host,4264 and went up,5927 and besieged6696 5921 Samaria.8111

25 And there was1961 a great1419 famine7458 in Samaria:8111 and, behold,2009 they besieged6696 5921 it, until5704 an ass's2543 head7218 was1961 sold for fourscore8084 pieces of silver,3701 and the fourth part7255 of a cab6894 of dove's dung1686 for five2568 pieces of silver.3701

26 And as the king4428 of Israel3478 was1961 passing by5674 upon5921 the wall,2346 there cried6817 a woman802 unto413 him, saying,559 Help,3467 my lord,113 O king.4428

27 And he said,559 If the LORD3068 do not408 help3467 thee, whence4480 370 shall I help3467 thee? out of4480 the barnfloor,1637 or176 out of4480 the winepress?3342

28 And the king4428 said559 unto her, What4100 aileth thee? And she answered,559 This2063 woman802 said559 unto413 me, Give5414 853 thy son,1121 that we may eat398 him today,3117 and we will eat398 my son1121 tomorrow.4279

29 So we boiled1310 853 my son,1121 and did eat398 him: and I said559 unto413 her on the next312 day,3117 Give5414 853 thy son,1121 that we may eat398 him: and she hath hid2244 853 her son.1121

30 And it came to pass,1961 when the king4428 heard8085 853 the words1697 of the woman,802 that he rent7167 853 his clothes;899 and he1931 passed by5674 upon5921 the wall,2346 and the people5971 looked,7200 and, behold,2009 he had sackcloth8242 within4480 1004 upon5921 his flesh.1320

31 Then he said,559 God430 do6213 so3541 and more3254 also3541 to me, if518 the head7218 of Elisha477 the son1121 of Shaphat8202 shall stand5975 on5921 him this day.3117

32 But Elisha477 sat3427 in his house,1004 and the elders2205 sat3427 with854 him; and the king sent7971 a man376 from before4480 6440 him: but ere2962 the messenger4397 came935 to413 him, he1931 said559 to413 the elders,2205 See7200 ye how3588 this2088 son1121 of a murderer7523 hath sent7971 to take away5493 853 mine head?7218 look,7200 when the messenger4397 cometh,935 shut5462 the door,1817 and hold him fast3905 853 at the door:1817 is not3808 the sound6963 of his master's113 feet7272 behind310 him?

33 And while he yet5750 talked1696 with5973 them, behold,2009 the messenger4397 came down3381 unto413 him: and he said,559 Behold,2009 this2063 evil7451 is of4480 854 the LORD;3068 what4100 should I wait3176 for the LORD3068 any longer?5750

1 And the sons1121 of the prophets5030 said559 unto413 Elisha,477 Behold2009 now,4994 the place4725 where834 8033 we587 dwell3427 with6440 thee is too strait6862 for4480 us.

1 先知之徒、告以利沙曰、爾我偕居、其室甚隘、

2 Let us go,1980 we pray thee,4994 unto5704 Jordan,3383 and take3947 thence4480 8033 every man376 a259 beam,6982 and let us make6213 us a place4725 there,8033 where8033 we may dwell.3427 And he answered,559 Go1980 ye.

2 容我往約但、各取材木、創建一所以居、曰、往哉、

3 And one259 said,559 Be content,2974 I pray thee,4994 and go1980 with854 thy servants.5650 And he answered,559 I589 will go.1980

3 曰、請爾與我偕往、曰、可、

4 So he went1980 with854 them. And when they came935 to Jordan,3383 they cut down1504 wood.6086

4 遂與偕往、至約但砍木、

5 But as one259 was1961 felling5307 a beam,6982 the axe head1270 fell5307 into413 the water:4325 and he cried,6817 and said,559 Alas,162 master!113 for it1931 was borrowed.7592

5 有人砍樹、釜斤之鐵已脫、而墜於水、則呼曰、惜哉、我主歟、釜乃貨諸他人者、

6 And the man376 of God430 said,559 Where575 fell5307 it? And he showed7200 him853 the place.4725 And he cut down7094 a stick,6086 and cast7993 it in thither;8033 and the iron1270 did swim.6687

6 上帝之僕曰、墜於何所、人示其處、則削片木投水、鐵浮出、

7 Therefore said559 he, Take it up7311 to thee. And he put out7971 his hand,3027 and took3947 it.

7 曰、取之、乃取焉、

8 Then the king4428 of Syria758 warred3898 against Israel,3478 and took counsel3289 with413 his servants,5650 saying,559 In413 such and such6423 492 a place4725 shall be my camp.8466

8 亞蘭王與以色列族戰、謀於臣曰、至某地必建營壘、

9 And the man376 of God430 sent7971 unto413 the king4428 of Israel,3478 saying,559 Beware8104 that thou pass not4480 5674 such2088 a place;4725 for3588 thither8033 the Syrians758 are come down.5185

9 上帝之僕遣人至以色列王、曰、爾慎旃哉、勿過某地、蓋亞蘭人已至彼矣、

10 And the king4428 of Israel3478 sent7971 to413 the place4725 which834 the man376 of God430 told559 him and warned2094 him of, and saved himself8104 there,8033 not3808 once259 nor3808 twice.8147

10 以色列王遣人至上帝僕指示之所、脫於患難、已非一次、

11 Therefore the heart3820 of the king4428 of Syria758 was sore troubled5590 for5921 this2088 thing;1697 and he called7121 413 his servants,5650 and said559 unto413 them, Will ye not3808 show5046 me which4310 of4480 7495 us is for413 the king4428 of Israel?3478

11 亞蘭王之心、因此深爲懷憂、召其臣僕曰、我中孰助以色列王、盍明告於我、

12 And one259 of his servants4480 5650 said,559 None,3808 my lord,113 O king:4428 but3588 Elisha,477 the prophet5030 that834 is in Israel,3478 telleth5046 the king4428 of Israel3478 853 the words1697 that834 thou speakest1696 in thy bedchamber.2315 4904

12 一臣曰、我主我王、無人助之、乃以色列族之先知、以利沙以王在寢室所言之事、悉告其主、

13 And he said,559 Go1980 and spy7200 where351 he1931 is, that I may send7971 and fetch3947 him. And it was told5046 him, saying,559 Behold,2009 he is in Dothan.1886

13 曰、往哉、觀其所居、我將遣人執之而至、曰、彼在多丹

14 Therefore sent7971 he thither8033 horses,5483 and chariots,7393 and a great3515 host:2428 and they came935 by night,3915 and compassed5362 5921 the city5892 about.

14 故遣車騎、實繁有徒、夤夜圍城、

15 And when the servant8334 of the man376 of God430 was risen6965 early,7925 and gone forth,3318 behold,2009 a host2428 compassed5437 853 the city5892 both with horses5483 and chariots.7393 And his servant5288 said559 unto413 him, Alas,162 my master!113 how349 shall we do?6213

15 上帝僕之從者、夙興而出、見車騎軍旅、環繞城桓、乃曰、哀哉、我主歟、我儕將若何、

16 And he answered,559 Fear3372 not:408 for3588 they that834 be with854 us are more7227 than they that4480 834 be with854 them.

16 曰、毋畏、助我者、較助彼者衆、

17 And Elisha477 prayed,6419 and said,559 LORD,3068 I pray thee,4994 open6491 853 his eyes,5869 that he may see.7200 And the LORD3068 opened6491 853 the eyes5869 of the young man;5288 and he saw:7200 and, behold,2009 the mountain2022 was full4390 of horses5483 and chariots7393 of fire784 round about5439 Elisha.477

17 以利沙禱曰、求耶和華明其目、使能得見、耶和華遂明少者之目、俾其得見、以利沙所居之山岡、車騎四集、似火炎炎、

18 And when they came down3381 to413 him, Elisha477 prayed6419 unto413 the LORD,3068 and said,559 Smite5221 853 this2088 people,1471 I pray thee,4994 with blindness.5575 And he smote5221 them with blindness5575 according to the word1697 of Elisha.477

18 敵旣至、以利沙禱耶和華曰、請使此民、目眯不明、敵遂目眯、應以利沙所求、

19 And Elisha477 said559 unto413 them, This2088 is not3808 the way,1870 neither3808 is this2090 the city:5892 follow1980 310 me, and I will bring1980 you to413 the man376 whom834 ye seek.1245 But he led1980 them to Samaria.8111

19 以利沙謂之曰、此非其途、此非其城、爾當從我、爾所求之人、我導爾至其地、遂導之至撒馬利亞、

20 And it came to pass,1961 when they were come935 into Samaria,8111 that Elisha477 said,559 LORD,3068 open6491 853 the eyes5869 of these428 men, that they may see.7200 And the LORD3068 opened6491 853 their eyes,5869 and they saw;7200 and, behold,2009 they were in the midst8432 of Samaria.8111

20 入城、以利沙曰、願耶和華明斯衆之目、俾其得見、耶和華遂明其目、使得見、乃知在撒馬利亞邑中、

21 And the king4428 of Israel3478 said559 unto413 Elisha,477 when he saw7200 them, My father,1 shall I smite5221 them? shall I smite5221 them?

21 以色列王見之、則謂以利沙曰、我父歟、當擊之乎、當擊之乎、

22 And he answered,559 Thou shalt not3808 smite5221 them: wouldest thou859 smite5221 those whom834 thou hast taken captive7617 with thy sword2719 and with thy bow?7198 set7760 bread3899 and water4325 before6440 them, that they may eat398 and drink,8354 and go1980 to413 their master.113

22 曰、不可、卽使以刃以弓虜之而至、亦不可擊、當供以餅、給以水、使其飲食、而歸其王、

23 And he prepared3739 great1419 provision3740 for them: and when they had eaten398 and drunk,8354 he sent them away,7971 and they went1980 to413 their master.113 So the bands1416 of Syria758 came935 no3808 more3254 5750 into the land776 of Israel.3478

23 遂備盛饌、飲食旣畢、使歸其王、斯時也、亞蘭人之軍旅不侵以色列地、

24 And it came to pass1961 after310 this,3651 that Ben-hadad1130 king4428 of Syria758 gathered6908 853 all3605 his host,4264 and went up,5927 and besieged6696 5921 Samaria.8111

24 越至於後、亞蘭王便哈達集其全軍、圍撒馬利亞邑、

25 And there was1961 a great1419 famine7458 in Samaria:8111 and, behold,2009 they besieged6696 5921 it, until5704 an ass's2543 head7218 was1961 sold for fourscore8084 pieces of silver,3701 and the fourth part7255 of a cab6894 of dove's dung1686 for five2568 pieces of silver.3701

25 撒馬利亞糧絕、驢之一首、値金四十、鴿糞二升三合、値金二兩有半、

26 And as the king4428 of Israel3478 was1961 passing by5674 upon5921 the wall,2346 there cried6817 a woman802 unto413 him, saying,559 Help,3467 my lord,113 O king.4428

26 以色列王延城垣而過、聞婦呼曰、我主我王歟、其助我、

27 And he said,559 If the LORD3068 do not408 help3467 thee, whence4480 370 shall I help3467 thee? out of4480 the barnfloor,1637 or176 out of4480 the winepress?3342

27 曰如耶和華不助爾、我何由助爾、或由穀場、或由酒醡、俱無從得、

28 And the king4428 said559 unto her, What4100 aileth thee? And she answered,559 This2063 woman802 said559 unto413 me, Give5414 853 thy son,1121 that we may eat398 him today,3117 and we will eat398 my son1121 tomorrow.4279

28 又曰、爾何事、曰、昔有一婦、告我曰、今日食爾子、明日食我子、

29 So we boiled1310 853 my son,1121 and did eat398 him: and I said559 unto413 her on the next312 day,3117 Give5414 853 thy son,1121 that we may eat398 him: and she hath hid2244 853 her son.1121

29 於是烹我子而食之、次日我告彼曰、今當食爾子、乃彼匿其子、

30 And it came to pass,1961 when the king4428 heard8085 853 the words1697 of the woman,802 that he rent7167 853 his clothes;899 and he1931 passed by5674 upon5921 the wall,2346 and the people5971 looked,7200 and, behold,2009 he had sackcloth8242 within4480 1004 upon5921 his flesh.1320

30 王聞婦言、則裂其衣、延城垣而過、民見王身衣麻、

31 Then he said,559 God430 do6213 so3541 and more3254 also3541 to me, if518 the head7218 of Elisha477 the son1121 of Shaphat8202 shall stand5975 on5921 him this day.3117

31 王曰、今日必斬沙法子以利沙首、不然願上帝降罰於我、

32 But Elisha477 sat3427 in his house,1004 and the elders2205 sat3427 with854 him; and the king sent7971 a man376 from before4480 6440 him: but ere2962 the messenger4397 came935 to413 him, he1931 said559 to413 the elders,2205 See7200 ye how3588 this2088 son1121 of a murderer7523 hath sent7971 to take away5493 853 mine head?7218 look,7200 when the messenger4397 cometh,935 shut5462 the door,1817 and hold him fast3905 853 at the door:1817 is not3808 the sound6963 of his master's113 feet7272 behind310 him?

32 以利沙坐於室、長老偕在、其時王遣使者未至、以利沙謂長老曰、爾觀此戕民者之子、遣人取我首級、使者旣至、汝當閉門而執之、其主必繼至、

33 And while he yet5750 talked1696 with5973 them, behold,2009 the messenger4397 came down3381 unto413 him: and he said,559 Behold,2009 this2063 evil7451 is of4480 854 the LORD;3068 what4100 should I wait3176 for the LORD3068 any longer?5750

33 言時、使者至、王亦至、曰、斯災自耶和華而降、何必仰望耶和華哉、
