David Spares Saul’s Life
1Now when Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, it was reported to him, saying, “Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.” 2Then Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel and went to search for David and his men in front of the Rocks of the Mountain Goats. 3And he came to the sheepfolds on the way, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself. Now David and his men were sitting in the inner recesses of the cave. 4Then David’s men said to him, “Behold, this is the day of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold; I am about to hand your enemy over to you, and you shall do to him as it seems good to you.’” Then David got up and cut off the edge of Saul’s robe secretly. 5But it came about afterward that David’s conscience bothered him because he had cut off the edge of Saul’s robe. 6So he said to his men, “Far be it from me because of the LORD that I would do this thing to my lord, the LORD’S anointed, to reach out with my hand against him, since he is the LORD’S anointed.” 7And David rebuked his men with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. And Saul got up, left the cave, and went on his way.
1掃羅追趕非利士人回來,有人告訴他說:「大衛在隱‧基底的曠野。」2掃羅就從以色列人中挑選三千精兵,率領他們往野羊的磐石去,尋索大衛和跟隨他的人。3到了路旁的羊圈,在那裏有洞,掃羅進去大解。大衛和跟隨他的人正藏在洞裏的深處。4跟隨的人對大衛說:「耶和華曾應許你說:『我要將你的仇敵交在你手裏,你可以任意待他。』如今時候到了!」大衛就起來,悄悄地割下掃羅外袍的衣襟。5隨後大衛心中自責,因為割下掃羅的衣襟;6對跟隨他的人說:「我的主乃是耶和華的受膏者,我在耶和華面前萬不敢伸手害他,因他是耶和華的受膏者。」7大衛用這話攔住跟隨他的人,不容他們起來害掃羅。掃羅起來,從洞裏出去行路。
8Afterward, however, David got up and went out of the cave, and called after Saul, saying, “My lord the king!” And when Saul looked behind him, David bowed with his face to the ground and prostrated himself. 9And David said to Saul, “Why do you listen to the words of men who say, ‘Behold, David is seeking to harm you’? 10“Behold, this day your eyes have seen that the LORD had handed you over to me today in the cave, and someone said to kill you, but I spared you; and I said, ‘I will not reach out with my hand against my lord, because he is the LORD’S anointed.’ 11“So, my father, look! Indeed, look at the edge of your robe in my hand! For by the fact that I cut off the edge of your robe but did not kill you, know and understand that there is no evil or rebellion in my hands, and I have not sinned against you, though you are lying in wait for my life, to take it. 12“May the LORD judge between you and me, and may the LORD take vengeance on you for me; but my hand shall not be against you. 13“As the proverb of the ancients says, ‘Out of the wicked comes wickedness’; but my hand shall not be against you. 14“After whom has the king of Israel gone out? Whom are you pursuing? A dead dog, a single flea? 15“May the LORD therefore be judge and decide between you and me; and may He see and plead my cause and save me from your hand.”
8隨後大衛也起來,從洞裏出去,呼叫掃羅說:「我主,我王!」掃羅回頭觀看,大衛就屈身、臉伏於地下拜。9大衛對掃羅說:「你為何聽信人的讒言,說大衛想要害你呢?10今日你親眼看見在洞中,耶和華將你交在我手裏;有人叫我殺你,我卻愛惜你,說:『我不敢伸手害我的主,因為他是耶和華的受膏者。』11我父啊,看看你外袍的衣襟在我手中。我割下你的衣襟,沒有殺你;你由此可以知道我沒有惡意叛逆你。你雖然獵取我的命,我卻沒有得罪你。12願耶和華在你我中間判斷是非,在你身上為我伸冤,我卻不親手加害於你。13古人有句俗語說:『惡事出於惡人。』我卻不親手加害於你。14以色列王出來要尋找誰呢?追趕誰呢?不過追趕一條死狗,一個虼蚤就是了。15願耶和華在你我中間施行審判,斷定是非,並且鑒察,為我伸冤,救我脫離你的手。」
16When David had finished speaking these words to Saul, Saul said, “Is this your voice, my son David?” Then Saul raised his voice and wept. 17And he said to David, “You are more righteous than I; for you have dealt well with me, while I have dealt maliciously with you. 18“You have declared today that you have done good to me, that the LORD handed me over to you and yet you did not kill me. 19“Though if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away unharmed? May the LORD therefore reward you with good in return for what you have done to me this day. 20“Now, behold, I know that you will certainly be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in your hand. 21“So now swear to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants after me, and that you will not eliminate my name from my father’s household.” 22And David swore an oath to Saul. Then Saul went to his home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.
16大衛向掃羅說完這話,掃羅說:「我兒大衛,這是你的聲音嗎?」就放聲大哭,17對大衛說:「你比我公義;因為你以善待我,我卻以惡待你。18你今日顯明是以善待我;因為耶和華將我交在你手裏,你卻沒有殺我。19人若遇見仇敵,豈肯放他平安無事地去呢?願耶和華因你今日向我所行的,以善報你。20我也知道你必要作王,以色列的國必堅立在你手裏。21現在你要指著耶和華向我起誓,不剪除我的後裔,在我父家不滅沒我的名。」22於是大衛向掃羅起誓,掃羅就回家去;大衛和跟隨他的人上山寨去了。
