第二十六章 1 Samuel 26
1.西弗人到基比亞見掃羅,說:「大衛不是在曠野前的哈基拉山藏著嗎?」
The Ziphites went to Saul at Gibeah and said, 「Is not David hiding on the hill of Hakilah, which faces Jeshimon?」
2.掃羅就起身,帶領以色列人中挑選的三千精兵下到西弗的曠野,要在那裏尋索大衛。
So Saul went down to the Desert of Ziph, with his three thousand select Israelite troops, to search there for David.
3.掃羅在曠野前的哈基拉山,在道路上安營。大衛住在曠野,聽說掃羅到曠野來追尋他,
Saul made his camp beside the road on the hill of Hakilah facing Jeshimon, but David stayed in the wilderness. When he saw that Saul had followed him there,
4.就打發人去探聽,便知道掃羅果然來到。
he sent out scouts and learned that Saul had definitely arrived.
5.大衛起來,到掃羅安營的地方,看見掃羅和他的元帥尼珥的兒子押尼珥睡臥之處;掃羅睡在輜重營裏,百姓安營在他周圍。
Then David set out and went to the place where Saul had camped. He saw where Saul and Abner son of Ner, the commander of the army, had lain down. Saul was lying inside the camp, with the army encamped around him.
