大衛至挪伯得助於亞希米勒
David at Nob
第二十一章 1 Samuel 21
1.大衛到了挪伯祭司亞希米勒那裏，亞希米勒戰戰兢兢地出來迎接他，問他說：「你為甚麼獨自來，沒有人跟隨呢？」
[a]David went to Nob, to Ahimelek the priest. Ahimelek trembled when he met him, and asked, 「Why are you alone? Why is no one with you?」

2.大衛回答祭司亞希米勒說：「王吩咐我一件事說：『我差遣你委託你的這件事，不要使人知道。』故此我已派定少年人在某處等候我。
David answered Ahimelek the priest, 「The king sent me on a mission and said to me, 『No one is to know anything about the mission I am sending you on.」 As for my men, I have told them to meet me at a certain place.
3.現在你手下有甚麼？求你給我五個餅或是別樣的食物。」
Now then, what do you have on hand? Give me five loaves of bread, or whatever you can find.」
4.祭司對大衛說：「我手下沒有尋常的餅，只有聖餅；若少年人沒有親近婦人才可以給。」
But the priest answered David, 「I don’t have any ordinary bread on hand; however, there is some consecrated bread here—provided the men have kept themselves from women.」
5.大衛對祭司說：「實在約有三日我們沒有親近婦人；我出來的時候，雖是尋常行路，少年人的器皿還是潔淨的；何況今日不更是潔淨嗎？」
David replied, 「Indeed women have been kept from us, as usual whenever[b] I set out. The men’s bodies are holy even on missions that are not holy. How much more so today!」

6.祭司就拿聖餅給他；因為在那裏沒有別樣餅，只有更換新餅，從耶和華面前撤下來的陳設餅。
So the priest gave him the consecrated bread, since there was no bread there except the bread of the Presence that had been removed from before the LORD and replaced by hot bread on the day it was taken away.
7.（當日有掃羅的一個臣子留在耶和華面前。他名叫多益，是以東人，作掃羅的司牧長。）
Now one of Saul’s servants was there that day, detained before the LORD; he was Doeg the Edomite, Saul’s chief shepherd.
8.大衛問亞希米勒說：「你手下有槍有刀沒有？因為王的事甚急，連刀劍器械我都沒有帶。」
David asked Ahimelek, 「Don’t you have a spear or a sword here? I haven’t brought my sword or any other weapon, because the king’s mission was urgent.」
9.祭司說：「你在以拉谷殺非利士人歌利亞的那刀在這裏，裹在布中，放在以弗得後邊，你要就可以拿去；除此以外，再沒有別的。」大衛說：「這刀沒有可比的！求你給我。」
The priest replied, 「The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, is here; it is wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you want it, take it; there is no sword here but that one.」 David said, 「There is none like it; give it to me.」 |
