書念婦接待以利沙
The Shunammite’s Son Restored to Life
8.一日，以利沙走到書念，在那裏有一個大戶的婦人強留他吃飯。此後，以利沙每從那裏經過就進去吃飯。
One day Elisha went to Shunem. And a well-to-do woman was there, who urged him to stay for a meal. So whenever he came by, he stopped there to eat.
9.婦人對丈夫說：「我看出那常從我們這裏經過的是聖潔的神人。
She said to her husband, 「I know that this man who often comes our way is a holy man of God.
10.我們可以為他在牆上蓋一間小樓，在其中安放牀榻、桌子、椅子、燈臺，他來到我們這裏，就可以住在其間。」
Let’s make a small room on the roof and put in it a bed and a table, a chair and a lamp for him. Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us.」
11.一日，以利沙來到那裏，就進了那樓躺臥。
One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there.
12.以利沙吩咐僕人基哈西說：「你叫這書念婦人來。」他就把婦人叫了來，婦人站在以利沙面前。
He said to his servant Gehazi, 「Call the Shunammite.」 So he called her, and she stood before him.
13.以利沙吩咐僕人說：「你對她說：你既為我們費了許多心思，可以為你做甚麼呢？你向王或元帥有所求的沒有？」她回答說：「我在我本鄉安居無事。」
Elisha said to him, 「Tell her, 『You have gone to all this trouble for us. Now what can be done for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army?』」 She replied, 「I have a home among my own people.」
14.以利沙對僕人說：「究竟當為她做甚麼呢？」基哈西說：「她沒有兒子，她丈夫也老了。」
「What can be done for her?」 Elisha asked. Gehazi said, 「She has no son, and her husband is old.」
15.以利沙說：「再叫她來。」於是叫了她來，她就站在門口。
Then Elisha said, 「Call her.」 So he called her, and she stood in the doorway.
16.以利沙說：「明年到這時候，你必抱一個兒子。」她說：「神人，我主啊，不要那樣欺哄婢女。」
「About this time next year,」 Elisha said, 「you will hold a son in your arms.」 「No, my lord!」 she objected. 「Please, man of God, don’t mislead your servant!」 |
