21：1 大衛(wèi)年間有饑荒，一連三年，大衛(wèi)就求問耶和華。耶和華說，這饑荒是因掃羅和他流人血之家殺死基遍人。

　　Then there was a famine in the days of David three years， year after year； and David enquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered， It is for Saul， and for his bloody house， because he slew the Gibeonites.

　　21：2 原來這基遍人不是以色列人，乃是亞摩利人中所剩的。以色列人曾向他們起誓，不殺滅他們，掃羅卻為以色列人和猶大人發(fā)熱心，想要殺滅他們。大衛(wèi)王召了他們來，And the king called the Gibeonites， and said unto them； （now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel， but of the remnant of the Amorites； and the children of Israel had sworn unto them： and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and Judah.）

　　Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites， What shall I do for you？ and wherewith shall I make the atonement， that ye may bless the inheritance of the LORD？

　　21：4 基遍人回答說，我們和掃羅與他家的事并不關(guān)乎金銀，也不要因我們的緣故殺一個以色列人。大衛(wèi)說，你們怎樣說，我就為你們怎樣行。

　　And the Gibeonites said unto him， We will have no silver nor gold of Saul， nor of his house； neither for us shalt thou kill any man in Israel. And he said， What ye shall say， that will I do for you.

　　21：5 他們對王說，那從前謀害我們，要滅我們，使我們不得再住以色列境內(nèi)的人，And they answered the king， The man that consumed us， and that devised against us that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the coasts of Israel，

　　21：6 現(xiàn)在愿將他的子孫七人交給我們，我們好在耶和華面前，將他們懸掛在耶和華揀選掃羅的基比亞。王說，我必交給你們。

　　21：9 交在基遍人的手里。基遍人就把他們，在耶和華面前，懸掛在山上，這七人就一同死亡。被殺的時候正是收割的日子，就是動手割大麥的時候。

　　And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites， and they hanged them in the hill before the LORD： and they fell all seven together， and were put to death in the days of harvest， in the first days， in the beginning of barley harvest.

　　21：10 愛雅的女兒利斯巴用麻布在磐石上搭棚，從動手收割的時候直到天降雨在尸身上的時候，日間不容空中的雀鳥落在尸身上，夜間不讓田野的走獸前來糟踐。

　　And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth， and spread it for her upon the rock， from the beginning of harvest until water dropped upon them out of heaven， and suffered neither the birds of the air to rest on them by day， nor the beasts of the field by night.

　　21：11 有人將掃羅的妃嬪愛雅女兒利斯巴所行的這事告訴大衛(wèi)。

　　And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah， the concubine of Saul， had done.

　　21：12 大衛(wèi)就去，從基列雅比人那里將掃羅和他兒子約拿單的骸骨搬了來。是因非利士人從前在基利波殺掃羅，將尸身懸掛在伯珊的街市上，基列雅比人把尸身偷了去。

　　And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabeshgilead， which had stolen them from the street of Bethshan， where the Philistines had hanged them， when the Philistines had slain Saul in Gilboa：

　　21：13 大衛(wèi)將掃羅和他兒子約拿單的骸骨從那里搬了來，又收殮被懸掛七人的骸骨，And he brought up from thence the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son； and they gathered the bones of them that were hanged.
