4：1 以色列人出去與非利士人打仗，安營在以便以謝。非利士人安營在亞弗。

　　And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle， and pitched beside Ebenezer： and the Philistines pitched in Aphek.

　　4：2 非利士人向以色列人擺陣。兩軍交戰的時候，以色列人敗在非利士人面前。非利士人在戰場上殺了他們的軍兵約有四千人。

　　And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel： and when they joined battle， Israel was smitten before the Philistines： and they slew of the army in the field about four thousand men.

　　4：3 百姓回到營里，以色列的長老說，耶和華今日為何使我們敗在非利士人面前呢。我們不如將耶和華的約柜從示羅抬到我們這里來，好在我們中間救我們脫離敵人的手。

　　And when the people were come into the camp， the elders of Israel said， Wherefore hath the LORD smitten us to day before the Philistines？ Let us fetch the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of Shiloh unto us， that， when it cometh among us， it may save us out of the hand of our enemies.

　　4：4 于是百姓打發人到示羅，從那里將坐在二基路伯上萬軍之耶和華的約柜抬來。以利的兩個兒子何弗尼，非尼哈與神的約柜同來。

　　So the people sent to Shiloh， that they might bring from thence the ark of the covenant of the LORD of hosts， which dwelleth between the cherubims： and the two sons of Eli， Hophni and Phinehas， were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

　　4：5 耶和華的約柜到了營中，以色列眾人就大聲歡呼，地便震動。

　　And when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp， all Israel shouted with a great shout， so that the earth rang again.

　　4：6 非利士人聽見歡呼的聲音，就說，在希伯來人營里大聲歡呼，是什么緣故呢。隨后就知道耶和華的約柜到了營中。

　　And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout， they said， What meaneth the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews？ And they understood that the ark of the LORD was come into the camp.

　　4：7 非利士人就懼怕起來，說，有神到了他們營中。又說，我們有禍了。向來不曾有這樣的事。

　　And the Philistines were afraid， for they said， God is come into the camp. And they said， Woe unto us！ for there hath not been such a thing heretofore.

　　4：8 我們有禍了。誰能救我們脫離這些大能之神的手呢。從前在曠野用各樣災殃擊打埃及人的，就是這些神。

　　Woe unto us！ who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty Gods？ these are the Gods that smote the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wilderness.

　　4：9 非利士人哪，你們要剛強，要作大丈夫，免得作希伯來人的奴仆，如同他們作你們的奴仆一樣。你們要作大丈夫，與他們爭戰。

　　Be strong， and quit yourselves like men， O ye Philistines， that ye be not servants unto the Hebrews， as they have been to you： quit yourselves like men， and fight.

　　4：10 非利士人和以色列人打仗，以色列人敗了，各向各家奔逃，被殺的人甚多，以色列的步兵仆倒了三萬。

　　And the Philistines fought， and Israel was smitten， and they fled every man into his tent： and there was a very great slaughter； for there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.

　　4：11 神的約柜被擄去，以利的兩個兒子何弗尼，非尼哈也都被殺了。

　　And the ark of God was taken； and the two sons of Eli， Hophni and Phinehas， were slain.

　　4：12 當日，有一個便雅憫人從陣上逃跑，衣服撕裂，頭蒙灰塵，來到示羅。

　　And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the army， and came to Shiloh the same day with his clothes rent， and with earth upon his head.

　　4：13 到了的時候，以利正在道旁坐在自己的位上觀望，為神的約柜心里擔憂。那人進城報信，合城的人就都呼喊起來。

　　And when he came， lo， Eli sat upon a seat by the wayside watching： for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city， and told it， all the city cried out.

　　4：14 以利聽見呼喊的聲音就問說，這喧囔是什么緣故呢。那人急忙來報信給以利。

　　And when Eli heard the noise of the crying， he said， What meaneth the noise of this tumult？ And the man came in hastily， and told Eli.

　　4：15 那時以利九十八歲了，眼目發直，不能看見。

　　Now Eli was ninety and eight years old； and his eyes were dim， that he could not see.

　　4：16 那人對以利說，我是從陣上來的，今日我從陣上逃回。以利說，我兒，事情怎樣。

　　And the man said unto Eli， I am he that came out of the army， and I fled to day out of the army. And he said， What is there done， my son？

　　4：17 報信的回答說，以色列人在非利士人面前逃跑，民中被殺的甚多。你的兩個兒子何弗尼，非尼哈也都死了，并且神的約柜被擄去。

　　And the messenger answered and said， Israel is fled before the Philistines， and there hath been also a great slaughter among the people， and thy two sons also， Hophni and Phinehas， are dead， and the ark of God is taken.

　　4：18 他一提神的約柜，以利就從他的位上往后跌倒，在門旁折斷頸項而死。因為他年紀老邁，身體沉重。以利作以色列的士師四十年。

　　And it came to pass， when he made mention of the ark of God， that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate， and his neck brake， and he died： for he was an old man， and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.

　　4：19 以利的兒婦，非尼哈的妻懷孕將到產期，她聽見神的約柜被擄去，公公和丈夫都死了，就猛然疼痛，曲身生產。

　　And his daughter in law， Phinehas' wife， was with child， near to be delivered： and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken， and that her father in law and her husband were dead， she bowed herself and travailed； for her pains came upon her.

　　4：20 將要死的時候，旁邊站著的婦人們對她說，不要怕。你生了男孩子了。她卻不回答，也不放在心上。

　　And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her， Fear not； for thou hast born a son. But she answered not， neither did she regard it.

　　4：21 她給孩子起名叫以迦博，說，榮耀離開以色列了。這是因神的約柜被擄去，又因她公公和丈夫都死了。

　　And she named the child Ichabod， saying， The glory is departed from Israel： because the ark of God was taken， and because of her father in law and her husband.

　　4：22 她又說，榮耀離開以色列，因為神的約柜被擄去了。

　　And she said， The glory is departed from Israel： for the ark of God is taken.
