列王纪上第19章

《圣经》列王纪上-第19章

王上19:1 亚哈将以利亚一切所行的和他用刀杀众先知的事都告诉耶洗别。 (串)王上18:40

†[吕]亚哈将以利亚所行的一切事、和他怎样用刀杀死众神言人的事、都告诉了耶洗别。

†[思]阿哈布将厄里亚所作的一切，以及他如何刀斩众先知的事，全告诉了依则贝耳。

†[当代]亚哈把以利亚的事以及他怎样杀掉所有巴力先知的经过告诉了耶洗别，

†[新译]亚哈把以利亚所行的一切，和他用刀杀死众先知的一切事，都告诉了耶洗别。

†[Wlb]亚哈以以利亚所为、及以刃杀诸先知之事、告耶洗别、

†[Xdv]亚哈王把伊莱贾所做的每一件事和他怎样处死所有巴力先知的事都告诉妻子耶洗碧。

†[Kjv]And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.

†[Nkjv]And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, also how he had executed all the prophets with the sword.

†[BBE]Ahab gave Jezebel news of all Elijah had done, and how he had put all the prophets to death with the sword.

†[GNT] King Ahab told his wife Jezebel everything that Elijah had done and how he had put all the prophets of Baal to death.

†[NIV]Now Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword.

本会注释　　以利亚凭借上帝的大能所做的是一件奇妙的事。但这并没有打动耶洗别的心，使她产生悔改的愿望。听见真理而不悔改只能使人心更加刚硬。

王上19:2 耶洗别就差遣人去见以利亚，告诉他说：“明日约在这时候，我若不使你的性命象那些人的性命一样，愿神明重重的降罚与我。” (串)王上20:10得1:17

†[吕]耶洗别就差遣使者去见以利亚说：“明天大约这时候、我若不使你的性命像那些人的性命一样，愿神明这样惩罚我，并且加倍地惩罚。”

†[思]依则贝耳就派使者去对厄里亚说：“明天这个时候，如果我不使你的性命如同那些先知一样，愿众神明严厉，且加倍严厉地惩罚我！”

†[当代]耶洗别听了以后非常生气，就连忙派人去警告以利亚说：“你杀掉我的先知，我也必定杀你，明天这个时候，倘若我还不杀你，就愿神明加倍地惩罚我。”

†[新译]耶洗别就差派一个使者去见以利亚说：“明天这个时候，如果我不使你的性命，像那些人一样，愿神明惩罚我，并且加倍惩罚我。”

†[Wlb]耶洗别遣人谓以利亚曰、明日斯时、我若不丧尔命、如尔丧彼众之命、则愿诸神罚我维倍、

†[Xdv]耶洗碧就差了使者去见伊莱贾，说：“明天这时候，如果我不照你对付我的那些先知的办法对付你，愿神明击杀我！”

†[Kjv]Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time.

†[Nkjv]Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, "So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time."

†[BBE]Then Jezebel sent a servant to Elijah, saying, May the gods' punishment be on me if I do not make your life like the life of one of them by tomorrow about this time.

†[GNT] She sent a message to Elijah: "May the gods strike me dead if by this time tomorrow I don't do the same thing to you that you did to the prophets."

†[NIV]So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah to say, "May the gods deal with me, be it ever so severely, if by this time tomorrow I do not make your life like that of one of them."

本会注释　　上帝的仆人为国王忠心地服务，但他的高尚行为只给自己换来了死亡的威胁。在这个世界，义人奉上帝的名所做的忠心服务并不能得到公正的回报。生活中最大的悲剧之一就是，为正义事业付出最多辛劳的人往往也是那些遭遇最多痛苦的人。其中的原因也许不能总是得到理解，但当我们想到无罪的耶稣所受的痛苦比世上任何一个人蒙召所受的更多，就得到了安慰。仆人不能大过他们的主。

王上19:3 以利亚见这光景就起来逃命，到了犹大的别是巴，将仆人留在那里， (串)创21:31

†[吕]以利亚害怕（传统：看见），就起来逃命，到了犹大的别是巴，将僮仆留在那里。

†[思]厄里亚害了怕，遂起身逃命，到了犹大境内的贝尔舍巴，叫他的仆人留在那里，

†[当代]以利亚吓得大惊失色，赶忙逃命，来到犹大的别是巴。他嘱咐仆人留下来，自己走了一天的路程，来到荒野的地方，独个儿住在一棵罗腾树下，后来还向主求死，说：“主啊，我受够了，求你取了我的性命好了，我比不上我的祖先啊！”

†[新译]以利亚害怕，就起来，逃命去了。他到了犹大的别是巴，就把自己的仆人留在那里。

†[Wlb]以利亚闻之、则起而遁、以保其命、至犹大之别是巴、留其仆于彼、独行旷野一日之程、坐于罗腾树下、祈死曰、耶和华欤、已矣、望取我命、盖我不愈于我列祖也、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾就害怕，起来逃命，带着他的仆人逃到犹大的别是巴去。伊莱贾把仆人留在那里，

†[Kjv]And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.

†[Nkjv]And when he saw that, he arose and ran for his life, and went to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.

†[BBE]And he got up, fearing for his life, and went in flight, and came to Beer-sheba in Judah, parting there from his servant;

†[GNT] Elijah was afraid and fled for his life; he took his servant and went to Beersheba in Judah. Leaving the servant there,

†[NIV]Elijah was afraid and ran for his life. When he came to Beersheba in Judah, he left his servant there,

本会注释　　起来逃命。上帝的先知在完全胜过巴力的众先知并展现了如此伟大的勇气之后，应该能面对任何信心的考验了。我们也许会假设，以利亚有上帝同在和祝福的明显证据，决不会丧失勇气。但是他现在承受着经常伴随着显著胜利的反作用。他希望迦密山上的光辉胜利能打破耶洗别在王身上的蛊惑。但当先知被告知王后坚决反对改革的新呼吁，他就受不了了。他对这冷酷无情、坚决复仇的恶后没有丝毫准备。他一心只想逃避这个恶毒残忍之仇敌的魔爪，而没有考虑他逃命的后果。
　　以利亚擅离岗位是错误的。他的工作还没有结束，战斗才刚刚开始。如果他勇敢地站立，并派遣一人去见王后，告诉她，那使他胜过巴力众先知的上帝决不会丢弃自己，他就会发现天使已准备好保护他的性命。上帝的刑罚必以显著的方式降在耶洗别身上，人们会得到广泛而深刻的印象，一场伟大的改革必将席卷以色列全地（见《先知与君王》160页）。但他既然逃命，就落到了仇敌手中。逃往别是巴使他在迦密山的胜利暗淡无光了。
　　别是巴。在犹大支派的南部边境，离耶斯列152公里，属于南方的犹大王国，但现在南北两国的关系如此紧密，以利亚在那里也是不安全的。

王上19:4 自己在旷野走了一日的路程，来到一棵罗腾树下（罗腾，小树名，松类；下同），就坐在那里求死，说：“耶和华啊，罢了！求你取我的性命，因为我不胜于我的列祖。” (串)民11:15拿4:3,8

†[吕]自己却进旷野、走了一天的路程，来到一棵罗腾树下，就坐在那里为自己求死，说：“罢了！永恒主阿，现在取我的性命吧！因为我并不比我列祖强。”

†[思]自己却进入旷野，走了一天的路，来到一棵杜松树下，坐下求死说：“上主啊！现在已经够了！收去我的性命罢！因为我并不如我的祖先好。”

†[当代]－

†[新译]他自己却在旷野走了一天的路，来到一棵罗腾树下，就坐在那里求死，说：“耶和华啊，现在已经够了，求你取我的性命吧，因为我并不比我的列祖好。”

†[Wlb]遂卧于罗腾树下而睡、有天使抚之曰、起而食、

†[Xdv]自己走了一天的路，来到旷野。他坐在一棵杜松树的荫下，希望死掉算了。他祷告说：“上主啊，我受不了啦！把我的性命取去吧！我还是死了好。”

†[Kjv]But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

†[Nkjv]But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree. And he prayed that he might die, and said, "It is enough! Now, LORD, take my life, for I am no better than my fathers!"

†[BBE]While he himself went a day's journey into the waste land, and took a seat under a broom-plant, desiring for himself only death; for he said, It is enough: now, O Lord, take away my life, for I am no better than my fathers.

†[GNT] Elijah walked a whole day into the wilderness. He stopped and sat down in the shade of a tree and wished he would die. "It's too much, Lord," he prayed. "Take away my life; I might as well be dead!"

†[NIV]while he himself went a day's journey into the desert. He came to a broom tree, sat down under it and prayed that he might die. "I have had enough, Lord ," he said. "Take my life; I am no better than my ancestors."

本会注释　　一日的路程。以利亚没有在犹大停留，恐惧驱使他继续前行，直到向南走了一天的路程，到了旷野才敢停下休息。至此以利亚似乎是昼夜兼程，恐惧的力量使他疲于奔命。他在一棵罗腾树下休息时已经筋疲力尽了。
　　求死。先知的心情失落到了极点。在迦密山光荣的胜利中他被高举到了天上，现在当他回想起不久之前发生的事时，他的意志大大消沉了。他只想求死。他现在的痛苦源于精神过分紧张之后的反作用。一个人被高举到光荣和胜利境地，随之而来的是极大的属灵奋兴。但当他的心被每日生活中的试探所带来的失望和消沉压倒时，往往会发生这种情况。应该牢记，这世界上没有一个人能永远居住在顶峰。人生的道路有时会降到谷底，艰难和失望都是不可避免的现实。当我们站在世界之颠时就很容易愉快和勇敢，但当精神失落，全世界似乎都在与人作对时，就不会那么容易愉快和勇敢了。这时人最需要握住上帝的手，不给怀疑和绝望留有余地。失落时要仰望，再攀高峰。

王上19:5 他就躺在罗腾树下，睡着了。有一个天使拍他，说：“起来吃吧！”

†[吕]他就躺在罗腾树下，睡树下，睡着了；忽有一个天使来拍他、说：“起来吃吧！”

†[思]以後，就躺在那棵杜松树下，睡着了；忽然，有位天使拍醒他，对他说：“起来，吃罢！”

†[当代]他躺在树下，不知不觉就睡著了。有一位天使来轻轻拍醒他，说：“起来吃东西吧。”

†[新译]他躺在那棵罗腾树下，睡着了。忽然有一位天使拍他，说：“起来，吃吧！”

†[Wlb]则见有炭炙之饼、及水一瓶、在于首侧、遂饮食而复卧、

†[Xdv]他躺在树下，睡着了。忽然，有一个天使来拍他，对他说：“醒醒吧，吃点东西！”

†[Kjv]And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.

†[Nkjv]Then as he lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to him, "Arise and eat."

†[BBE]And stretching himself on the earth, he went to sleep under the broom-plant; but an angel, touching him, said to him, Get up and have some food.

†[GNT] He lay down under the tree and fell asleep. Suddenly an angel touched him and said, "Wake up and eat."

†[NIV]Then he lay down under the tree and fell asleep. All at once an angel touched him and said, "Get up and eat."

本会注释　　以利亚正睡觉时，有人轻轻地拍他，并有一个悦耳的声音向他问候。这是一位上帝差遣的天使，带来了生命和希望的信息。首先，天使带来的食物满足了他身体上的需要并有助于恢复他精神上的勇气。很奇妙，食物能使一个人失落的精神恢复并重新带回丢掉的力量和勇气。在上帝对待这疲乏无力的先知的简单方法中蕴涵着上帝的智慧。

王上19:6 他观看，见头旁有一瓶水与炭火烧的饼，他就吃了喝了，仍然躺下。

†[吕]他望一望，只见头旁边有烧着的石炭烙的饼，又有一罐水，他就吃，就喝，就再躺下。

†[思]他看了看，见头旁有一块用炭火烤熟的饼和一罐水；他吃了喝了，又躺下睡了。

†[当代]他醒过来，睁开眼睛就看见身边有烘好的饼和一瓶水。他吃喝一顿以后，就再躺下来睡觉了。

†[新译]他张眼一看，只见头旁有用炭火烤的饼和一瓶水。他就起来吃喝，然后又躺下去。

†[Wlb]耶和华之使者再至、抚之曰、起而食、尔行斯途、力有未逮、

†[Xdv]他睁开眼四周一看，看见在头边有一块饼和一瓶水。他吃了，喝了，又躺下去。

†[Kjv]And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.

†[Nkjv]Then he looked, and there by his head was a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank, and lay down again.

†[BBE]And looking up, he saw by his head a cake cooked on the stones and a bottle of water. So he took food and drink and went to sleep again.

†[GNT] He looked around and saw a loaf of bread and a jar of water near his head. He ate and drank, and lay down again.

†[NIV]He looked around, and there by his head was a cake of bread baked over hot coals, and a jar of water. He ate and drank and then lay down again.

王上19:7 耶和华的使者第二次来拍他，说：“起来吃吧！因为你当走的路甚远。”

†[吕]永恒主的使者第二次再来拍他、说：“起来吃吧！因为那路程给你走是太远的。”

†[思]上主的使者第二次又来拍醒他说：“起来，吃罢！因为你还有一段很远的路。”

†[当代]天使第二次来拍醒他说：“起来多吃一点吧，你还要应付艰巨的旅程呢！”

†[新译]耶和华的使者第二次回来拍他，说：“起来吃吧！因为你要走的路程太远了。”

†[Wlb]遂起饮食、藉其力行四十昼夜、诣上帝之山何烈、

†[Xdv]上主的天使回来，第二次叫醒他，说：“起来，吃点东西！不然，路途那么远，你会支持不了的。”

†[Kjv]And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.

†[Nkjv]And the angel of the LORD came back the second time, and touched him, and said, "Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you."

†[BBE]And the angel of the Lord came again a second time, and touching him said, Get up and have some food, or the journey will be overmuch for your strength.

†[GNT] The Lord's angel returned and woke him up a second time, saying, "Get up and eat, or the trip will be too much for you."

†[NIV]The angel of the Lord came back a second time and touched him and said, "Get up and eat, for the journey is too much for you."

本会注释　　第二次。此刻以利亚需要食物和休息，上帝再次施恩将这些供应他。上帝派来的天使亲自给他预备了饮食。
　　甚远。前方的旅程要比原路返回长得多了。但上帝不会勉强先知，也不会命令他折返自己的脚步。设计这条道路的是以利亚的，而不是耶和华，但上帝的天使没有离弃他，而是在他所行的道路上帮助他。食物的供应帮助他恢复勇气并使他有力量行走前方艰苦的旅程。尽管以利亚犯了错误，上帝并没有丢弃他，而是想方设法帮助他找回信心，使他能够继续英勇地为上帝做工。

王上19:8 他就起来吃了喝了，仗着这饮食的力，走了四十昼夜，到了上帝的山，就是何烈山。 (串)出24:18;34:28申9:9,18太4:2可1:13路4:2|出3:1申4:10

†[吕]他就起来，就吃，就喝，仗着这饮食的力量、就走了四十昼四十夜，直走到上帝的山何烈。

†[思]他就起来，吃了喝了，赖那食物的力量，走了四十天四十夜，一直到了天主的山曷勒布。

†[当代]以利亚起来饱餐一顿，然后一鼓作气，走了四十天的路程，来到上帝的圣山何烈山。

†[新译]于是他起来吃喝，靠着那食物的力量，他走了四十昼夜，直走到　神的山，就是何烈山。

†[Wlb]入穴而居、耶和华谕之曰、以利亚、尔在此何为、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾起来，吃了，喝了。食物给他足够的力量，他走了四十昼夜，到了西奈圣山。

†[Kjv]And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

†[Nkjv]So he arose, and ate and drank; and he went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights as far as Horeb, the mountain of God.

†[BBE]So he got up and took food and drink, and in the strength of that food he went on for forty days and nights, to Horeb, the mountain of God.

†[GNT] Elijah got up, ate and drank, and the food gave him enough strength to walk forty days to Sinai, the holy mountain.

†[NIV]So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God.

本会注释　　他穿行在以色列人曾经停留四十年的旷野。这段行程并不很长，但极其艰苦。全程大概328公里，但他不需要太着急。他现在已经安全了，可以慢慢一边向上帝的圣山前进一边思考问题。摩西曾在那里与上帝交通，现在以利亚也要去那里和上帝做特殊的交通了。

王上19:9 他在那里进了一个洞，就住在洞中。耶和华的话临到他说：“以利亚啊，你在这里做什么？”

†[吕]在那里他进了一个洞，就住宿在那里。那时永恒主的话又传与他，对他说：“以利亚阿，你在这里作什么？”

†[思]他来到那里，进了一个山洞，在那里过夜；有上主的话传於他说：“厄里亚，你在这里做什麽？”

†[当代]他找了一个山洞，就在洞里栖息；后来，主就问他说：“以利亚，你在这里干什么呢？”

†[新译]他在那里进了一个洞，就在洞里过夜。耶和华的话临到他，说：“以利亚啊，你在这里干什么？”

†[Wlb]曰、我为万军之上帝耶和华、热中特甚、盖以色列人背尔约、毁尔坛、以刃杀尔先知、仅遗我一人、彼索我命、欲夺取之、

†[Xdv]他在那里的一个山洞过夜。忽然，上主对他说话：“伊莱贾！你在这里做什么？”

†[Kjv]And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?

†[Nkjv]And there he went into a cave, and spent the night in that place; and behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and He said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

†[BBE]And there he went into a hole in the rock for the night; then the word of the Lord came to him, saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

†[GNT] There he went into a cave to spend the night. Suddenly the Lord spoke to him, "Elijah, what are you doing here?"

†[NIV]There he went into a cave and spent the night. And the word of the Lord came to him: "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

本会注释　　进了一个洞。摩西曾在西奈的一个“磐石穴”中瞥见上帝（出33:22），现在以利亚可能也在同一个洞穴中独自居住。
　　你在这里作什么？这个问题一定戳到了以利亚心里的痛处，但他必须仔细考虑这个问题，他究竟在这里做什么呢？这是他的职责吗？他现在在做什么呢？他为什么不在以色列教导并鼓励那些新近从巴力转回的人民呢？以利亚在国内有很多使命要完成，而他却独自来到异国他乡。但现在不是自怨自恨的时候，而是需要努力省察自己的心。他如果不能重新战胜自己，学会在上帝里面得到勇气，并在属天的道路上承担属天的责任，就不可能返回故国，去完成他所逃避的任务。他有很多课程需要学习。这个山洞是他的教室。耶和华是他的教师（见《先知与君王》168页）。

王上19:10 他说：“我为耶和华万军之上帝大发热心；因为以色列人背弃了你的约，毁坏了你的坛，用刀杀了你的先知，只剩下我一个人，他们还要寻索我的命。” (串)本章14王下10:16|王上18:30|王上18:4罗11:3|王上18:22

†[吕]以利亚说：“我为永恒主万军之上帝大发妒爱热情，因为以色列人撇弃了你的约，翻毁了你的祭坛，用刀杀死你的神言人，只剩下我一个人，他们还想法子要我的命。”

†[思]厄里亚答说：“我为上主万军的天主忧心如焚，因为以色列子民背弃了你的盟约，毁坏了你的祭坛，刀斩了你的先知，只剩下了我一个，他们还要夺取我的性命！”

†[当代]以利亚回答说：“我一向热心事奉万军的主上帝；以色列人背弃你的约，拆毁你的祭坛，又残杀你的先知，现在，就只剩下我一个了；可是，他们却不肯放过我，要来杀我。”

†[新译]他说：“我为耶和华万军的　神大发热心，因为以色列人背弃了你的约，拆毁了你的祭坛，用刀杀死了你的众先知，只剩下我一个人，他们还在寻索，要取去我的性命。”

†[Wlb]曰、尔其出穴、立于山岗、在耶和华前、时、耶和华过焉、其前有风、大而且猛、裂山碎石、惟耶和华不在风中、风后地震、耶和华不在其中、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾回答：“上主──万军的统帅上帝啊！我一直专心爱你。但是以色列人民背弃了你跟他们立的约，拆毁了你的祭坛，又杀了你所有的先知。现在只剩下我一个人，他们还要杀我！”

†[Kjv]And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.

†[Nkjv]So he said, "I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life."

†[BBE]And he said, I have been burning for the honour of the Lord, the God of armies; for the children of Israel have not kept your agreement; they have made destruction of your altars, and have put your prophets to death with the sword: till I, even I, am the

†[GNT] He answered, "Lord God Almighty, I have always served you - you alone. But the people of Israel have broken their covenant with you, torn down your altars, and killed all your prophets. I am the only one left - and they are trying to kill me!"

†[NIV]He replied, "I have been very zealous for the Lord God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant, broken down your altars, and put your prophets to death with the sword. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me too."

本会注释　　以利亚心潮难平。他曾热诚地为耶和华工作，人们却要寻索他的性命。这个世界是仇敌的领土，大多数人都在为仇敌服务。上帝的儿女必须认识到，在善恶的大争战中撒但不可能被完全限制，否则恩典就不能得到正确的估量，撒但也会说他没有得到公正的机会。只因为事情没有按照自己的意愿和喜好去发展就牢骚满腹，这不是一个圣徒或先知智慧正确的态度。

王上19:11 耶和华说：“你出来站在山上，在我面前。”那时耶和华从那里经过，在他面前有烈风大作，崩山碎石，耶和华却不在风中；风后地震，耶和华却不在其中； (串)出24:12;34:2|结1:4|结37:7

†[吕]永恒主说：“你出来站在山上、在永恒主面前。”那时、永恒主正从那里经过；在永恒主面前有大而强烈的风（同词：灵），裂山碎岩，永恒主却不在风之中；风过后有地震，永恒主却不在地震之中；

†[思]上主吩咐他说：“你出来，站在山上，立在上主面前。”那时，上主正从那里经过，在上主前面，暴风大作，裂山碎石，但是，上主却不在风暴中；风以後有地震，但是上主亦不在地震中；

†[当代]主说：“你到山上站在我面前吧。”以利亚站在山上的时候，主就从那里经过！那时烈风大作，山崩地陷，但主却不在烈风之中。烈风过后，又有地震，可是，主又不在地震中向他显现。

†[新译]耶和华说：“你出来站在山上，在我耶和华面前。”那时，耶和华从那里经过。在耶和华面前有强烈的大风，山崩石碎，但耶和华不在风中；风过以后有地震，但耶和华也不在地震中；

†[Wlb]地震之后有火、耶和华不在火中、火后有声、微细而肃、

†[Xdv]上主对他说：“出去站在山顶上，站在我的面前。”于是，上主经过，招来烈风使山崩石裂，但上主不在风中。风停了，接着有地震，但上主也不在地震中。

†[Kjv]And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthq

†[Nkjv]Then He said, "Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD." And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an e

†[BBE]Then he said, Go out and take your place on the mountain before the Lord. Then the Lord went by, and mountains were parted by the force of a great wind, and rocks were broken before the Lord; but the Lord was not in the wind. And after the wind there was

†[GNT] "Go out and stand before me on top of the mountain," the Lord said to him. Then the Lord passed by and sent a furious wind that split the hills and shattered the rocks - but the Lord was not in the wind. The wind stopped blowing, and then there was an ea

†[NIV]The Lord said, "Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord , for the Lord is about to pass by." Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord , but the Lord was not in the wind. After the

本会注释　　耶和华从那里经过。以利亚最需要重新见到上帝的力量和他自己的软弱。耶和华曾在西奈山摩西面前经过，宣称自己是“耶和华，耶和华，是有怜悯有恩典的上帝，不轻易发怒，并有丰盛的慈爱和诚实”（出34:6）。以利亚也要在这里获得对上帝的新认识。
　　烈风。当以利亚走出洞口时，一场暴风扫过山间，地大震动。一切似乎都在混乱之中，天上闪着火焰，地被摇动好像马上就要裂开。所有这一切与先知当时紧张的心情相一致。他需要学习的是，尽管这些力量非常强大，撼人心魄，但它们并不真正代表上帝的灵。为上帝成就最大的事工，并不一定是处在高亢的奋兴之中。

王上19:12 地震后有火，耶和华也不在火中；火后有微小的声音。 (串)伯4:12,16

†[吕]地震之后有火，永恒主也不在火之中；火之后有声音、低微而细弱。

†[思]地震以後有烈火，但是上主仍不在火中；烈火以後，有轻微细弱的风声。

†[当代]地震之后又有火焰；然而，主也不在火中；最后，以利亚听见一个微小的声音在叫他，

†[新译]地震过后有火，耶和华也不在火中；火后有低微柔和的声音。

†[Wlb]以利亚闻之、以衣蒙面而出、立于穴口、有声谓之曰、

†[Xdv]地震后有火，但上主也不在火中。火以后，伊莱贾听到了轻微的声音。

†[Kjv]And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

†[Nkjv]and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.

†[BBE]And after the earth-shock a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire, the sound of a soft breath.

†[GNT] After the earthquake there was a fire - but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire there was the soft whisper of a voice.

†[NIV]After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.

本会注释　　在烈风、地震和火焰都平静之后，上帝才以微小的声音说话。这才是上帝最终选择向祂的仆人显示自己的方式。

王上19:13 以利亚听见，就用外衣蒙上脸，出来站在洞口。有声音向他说：“以利亚啊，你在这里做什么？” (串)出3:6

†[吕]以利亚听见，就用外衣蒙着脸，出来站在洞口；忽有声音向他说：“以利亚阿，你在这里作什么？”

†[思]厄里亚一听见这声音，即用外衣蒙住脸出来，站在洞口。遂有声音对他说：“厄里亚，你在这里做什麽？”

†[当代]以利亚就立刻用外袍蒙著脸，走到洞口去，那声音问他说：“以利亚，你在这里干什么？”

†[新译]以利亚听见了，就用自己的外衣蒙着脸，走出来，站在洞口。忽然有声音向他说：“以利亚啊，你在这里干什么？”

†[Wlb]以利亚、尔在此何为、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾听见了，就用外衣蒙住脸，出去站在洞口。有一个声音对他说：“伊莱贾，你在这里做什么？”

†[Kjv]And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?

†[Nkjv]So it was, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle and went out and stood in the entrance of the cave. Suddenly a voice came to him, and said, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

†[BBE]And Elijah, hearing it, went out, covering his face with his robe, and took his place in the opening of the hole. And there a voice came to him saying, What are you doing here, Elijah?

†[GNT] When Elijah heard it, he covered his face with his cloak and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. A voice said to him, "Elijah, what are you doing here?"

†[NIV]When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, "What are you doing here, Elijah?"

本会注释　　以利亚在上帝面前本能地蒙上了脸。他烦躁的精神平静了下来，他的不忍耐也被制伏了。精神高亢、冲动抱怨的先知变得谦卑顺服了，准备聆听耶和华的话语。“你们得救在乎归回安息，你们得力在乎平静安稳”（赛30:15）。以利亚要看到他为上帝服务的最大的成果吗？不是靠使火从天上降下来，也不是靠惩治巴力的先知，而是靠上帝的灵默默地作工，使罪人刚硬的心柔和顺服，这是圣灵潜移默化的工作。

王上19:14 他说：“我为耶和华万军之上帝大发热心；因为以色列人背弃了你的约，毁坏了你的坛，用刀杀了你的先知，只剩下我一个人，他们还要寻索我的命。” (串)本章10

†[吕]他说：“我为着永恒主万军之上帝大发妒爱热情，因为以色列人撇弃了你的约，翻毁了你的祭坛，用刀杀死了你的神言人，只剩下我一个人，他们还想法子要我的命。”

†[思]他答说：“我为上主万军的天主忧心如焚，因为以色列子民背弃了你的盟约，毁坏了你的祭坛，刀斩了你的先知，只剩下了我一个，他们还要夺取我的性命！”

†[当代]以利亚回答说：“我一向热心事奉万军之主上帝；以色列人背弃你的约，拆毁你的祭坛，又残杀你的先知，现在，就只剩下我一个了；可是，他们却不肯放过我，要来杀我。”

†[新译]以利亚说：“我为耶和华万军的　神大发热心，因为以色列人背弃了你的约，拆毁了你的祭坛，用刀杀了你的众先知，只剩下我一个人，他们还在寻索，要取去我的性命。”

†[Wlb]曰、我为万军之上帝耶和华、热中特甚、盖以色列人背尔约、毁尔坛、以刃杀尔先知、仅遗我一人、彼索我命、欲夺取之、

†[Xdv]他回答：“上主──万军的统帅上帝啊！我一直专心爱你。但是以色列人民背弃了你跟他们立的约，拆毁了你的祭坛，又杀了你所有的先知。现在只剩下我一个人，他们还要杀我！”

†[Kjv]And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: because the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it awa

†[Nkjv]And he said, "I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; because the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life."

†[BBE]And he said, I have been burning for the honour of the Lord, the God of armies; for the children of Israel have not kept your agreement; they have had your altars broken down, and have put your prophets to death with the sword: till I, even I, am the only

本会注释　　这个回答和先前的一样，但所含的精神却大不相同，现在先知平静顺服了。他只是在陈述事实，而不再抱有原来那样的态度。人们想要谋害他，但现在他却愿意继续和上帝同工了。如今出去的是一个新的以利亚，不再有烈火和风暴使万人惊叹仰慕，却要以一种更加柔和安静的态度和众人讲话，随时随地劝勉人，在人们的心里和生活之中产生恒久的果效。

王上19:15 耶和华对他说：“你回去，从旷野往大马色去。到了那里，就要膏哈薛作亚兰王，

†[吕]永恒主对他说：“你回去，取道旷野往大马色去；到了那里，你要膏立哈薛做王去管理亚兰；

†[思]上主对厄里亚说：“你回去，仍取道旷野，往大马士革去，到了那里，给哈匝耳傅油，立他为阿兰王。

†[当代]主吩咐他说：“你取道荒野回大马士革去膏立哈薛作亚兰王；

†[新译]耶和华对他说：“你离去吧，从你来的路回到大马士革的旷野去。你到了那里，就要膏哈薛作亚兰王。

†[Wlb]耶和华曰、尔其旋归、由旷野而往大马色、既至、则膏哈薛、为亚兰王、

†[Xdv]上主说：“你回到大马士革附近的旷野去，然后进城去膏立哈薛作叙利亚王，

†[Kjv]And the LORD said unto him, Go, return on thy way to the wilderness of Damascus: and when thou comest, anoint Hazael to be king over Syria:

†[Nkjv]Then the LORD said to him: "Go, return on your way to the Wilderness of Damascus; and when you arrive, anoint Hazael as king over Syria.

†[BBE]And the Lord said to him, Go back on your way through the waste land to Damascus; and when you come there, put the holy oil on Hazael to make him king over Aram;

†[GNT] The Lord said, "Return to the wilderness near Damascus, then enter the city and anoint Hazael as king of Syria;

†[NIV]The Lord said to him, "Go back the way you came, and go to the Desert of Damascus. When you get there, anoint Hazael king over Aram.

本会注释　　回去。这段话说明，以利亚擅自离岗是不对的。他的使命还没有完成，上帝还有工作要他去做。
　　膏。见第16节注释。.
　　哈薛。见@王下8:7,8@注释。

王上19:16 又膏宁示的孙子耶户作以色列王，并膏亚伯米何拉人沙法的儿子以利沙作先知接续你。 (串)王下9:1-6|王下2:9,15本章19-21

†[吕]又膏立宁示的孙子耶户做王来管理以色列；并膏立亚伯米何拉人沙法的儿子以利沙接替着你做神言人。

†[思]去给尼默史的孙子耶胡傅油，立他为以色列王；再去给阿贝耳默曷拉人沙法特的儿子厄里叟傅油，立他接替你为先知；

†[当代]然后，再膏立宁示的后人耶户作以色列王；也要膏立亚伯米何拉人沙法的儿子以利沙作先知来继承你。

†[新译]又要膏宁示的孙子耶户作以色列王，还要膏亚伯米何拉人沙法的儿子以利沙接续你作先知。

†[Wlb]亦膏宁示子耶户、为以色列王、又膏亚伯米何拉人、沙法子以利沙、代尔为先知、

†[Xdv]膏立宁示的儿子耶户作以色列王，又膏立埃布尔米何拉人沙法的儿子伊莱沙接替你作先知。

†[Kjv]And Jehu the son of Nimshi shalt thou anoint to be king over Israel: and Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abelmeholah shalt thou anoint to be prophet in thy room.

†[Nkjv]Also you shall anoint Jehu the son of Nimshi as king over Israel. And Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel Meholah you shall anoint as prophet in your place.

†[BBE]And on Jehu, son of Nimshi, making him king over Israel; and on Elisha, the son of Shaphat of Abel-meholah, to be prophet in your place.

†[GNT] anoint Jehu son of Nimshi as king of Israel, and anoint Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah to succeed you as prophet.

†[NIV]Also, anoint Jehu son of Nimshi king over Israel, and anoint Elisha son of Shaphat from Abel Meholah to succeed you as prophet.

本会注释　　宁示的孙子。耶户是宁示的孙子，约沙法的儿子（王下9:2,14；参王下9:20；代下22:7）。希伯来文中“儿子”也可以表示孙子，甚至更远的子孙。
　　沙法的儿子以利沙。尽管未曾有过如此膏立先知的记录，但此处可能是这样做的。一些祭司（出40:15；民3:3）和国王（撒上9:16；10:1；16:3,13；王下9:3,6；诗89:20）在他们第一次分别出来担负特殊使命时曾被膏立。一些器具有时也要受膏，比如与圣所有关的物品（出29:36；30:26；40:9；利8:10,11；民7:1），有时甚至石头也要受膏（创28:18）。有人认为“膏”在这里应从更广泛的意义上来理解。它的意思只是将一些个人或物体分别出来，以完成上帝的工作，而不涉及真正在外表上用油膏立（见士9:8）。哈薛，耶户和以利沙都是要执行上帝旨意和计划的，但所用的方法不同。亚兰王哈薛一直从外面欺压以色列人（王下8:12,29；10:32；13:3,7）。这个外邦的国王成了耶和华降罚的工具（《先知与君王》254,255页；参赛10:5）。以色列国内部因耶户而大大骚乱震动，耶和华使用他来灭绝亚哈的全家并结束对巴力的崇拜（王下9:24,33；10:1-28）。

王上19:17 将来躲避哈薛之刀的，必被耶户所杀；躲避耶户之刀的，必被以利沙所杀。 (串)王下8:12;13:3,22|王下9:1-37至王下10:1-36

†[吕]将来躲避了哈薛的刀的、耶户必杀死他；躲避了耶户的刀的、以利沙必杀死他。

†[思]将来躲过哈匝耳的刀的，必为耶胡所杀；躲过耶胡的刀的，必为厄里叟所杀。

†[当代]将来避过哈薛的，必被耶户所杀，避过耶户的，也必死在以利沙的手上；

†[新译]将来逃得过哈薛的刀的，必被耶户杀死；逃得过耶户的刀的，必被以利沙杀死。

†[Wlb]避哈薛之刃者、必为耶户所杀、避耶户之刃者、必为以利沙所杀、

†[Xdv]谁逃脱哈薛的刀，谁就会被耶户杀死；谁逃脱耶户的刀，谁就会被伊莱沙杀死。

†[Kjv]And it shall come to pass, that him that escapeth the sword of Hazael shall Jehu slay: and him that escapeth from the sword of Jehu shall Elisha slay.

†[Nkjv]It shall be that whoever escapes the sword of Hazael, Jehu will kill; and whoever escapes the sword of Jehu, Elisha will kill.

†[BBE]And it will come about that the man who gets away safe from the sword of Hazael, Jehu will put to death; and whoever gets away safe from the sword of Jehu, Elisha will put to death.

†[GNT] Anyone who escapes being put to death by Hazael will be killed by Jehu, and anyone who escapes Jehu will be killed by Elisha.

†[NIV]Jehu will put to death any who escape the sword of Hazael, and Elisha will put to death any who escape the sword of Jehu.

本会注释　　哈薛之刀。惩罚要临到以色列。哈薛和耶户是蒙拣选执行这项任务的工具。
　　被以利沙所杀。以利沙的工作肯定与哈薛和耶户不一样。没有以利沙真的拿刀杀人的记录。他的所谓“杀”可能是象征意义的：“我藉先知砍伐他们，以我口中的话杀戮他们”（何6:5）；或像耶利米的工作那样：“看啊，我今日立你在列邦列国之上，为要施行拔出、拆毁、毁坏、倾覆”（耶1:10）。先知的击打和杀戮是用上帝的话，“是活泼的，是有功效的，比一切两刃的剑更快”（来4:12）。以利沙的使命不是肉体的搏杀而是属灵的争战（林后10:3-6）。罪是真正的仇敌，要从全地根除的是罪恶，而不是人。

王上19:18 但我在以色列人中为自己留下七千人，是未曾向巴力屈膝的，未曾与巴力亲嘴的。” (串)罗11:4|何13:2

†[吕]但我在以色列中已为自己保存了七千个余民、是未曾向巴力（即：外国人的神）屈膝过，未曾和巴力亲咀过的。”

†[思]然而，在以色列我要为我自己留下七千人；他们全是从未向巴耳屈过膝，未与巴耳亲过嘴的人。”

†[当代]然而，我必定为以色列留下七千人，这些都是从来没有向巴力屈膝，也没有与他亲嘴的人。”

†[新译]但我在以色列人中留下七千人，他们全是未曾向巴力屈过膝的，也未曾与巴力亲过嘴的。”

†[Wlb]然在以色列中、我遗七千人、其膝未尝屈于巴力、其口未尝吻之、

†[Xdv]但我要在以色列留下七千人；这些人都效忠我，没有向巴力低过头，也从来没有亲吻过他的偶像。”

†[Kjv]Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.

†[Nkjv]Yet I have reserved seven thousand in Israel, all whose knees have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that has not kissed him."

†[BBE]But I will keep safe seven thousand in Israel, all those whose knees have not been bent to Baal, and whose mouths have given him no kisses.

†[GNT] Yet I will leave seven thousand people alive in Israel - all those who are loyal to me and have not bowed to Baal or kissed his idol."

†[NIV]Yet I reserve seven thousand in Israel-all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and all whose mouths have not kissed him."

本会注释　　七千。即使是上帝的先知也不一定能弄清以色列国中有多少忠心的人。以利亚曾两次说自己是以色列中所剩惟一虔诚的人（第10,14节）。
　　与巴力亲嘴。拜偶像者经常以亲吻偶像的手（伯31:26,27）或偶像本身（何13:2）作为他们敬拜仪式的一部分。异教神庙中的偶像现在仍受人亲吻。

王上19:19 于是，以利亚离开那里走了，遇见沙法的儿子以利沙耕地；在他前头有十二对牛，自己赶着第十二对。以利亚到他那里去，将自己的外衣搭在他身上。 (串)王下2:8

†[吕]于是以利亚离开那里走了，遇见沙法的儿子以利沙在犁田；在他前面有十二对牛，他自己赶着第十二对；以利亚往前走到他那里，将自己的外衣搭在他身上。

†[思]厄里亚於是从那里起身，去找沙法特的儿子厄里叟。他正在耕田，在他面前有十二对牛，他自己赶着第十二对；厄里亚走过他身边，将自己的外衣披在他身上。

†[当代]于是，以利亚就离开那地方，起程回去了，后来他遇见了沙法的儿子以利沙在耕田。当时，在以利沙前面有十二对牛，他正赶著第十二对，以利亚将外袍搭在他的身上，

†[新译]于是以利亚离开那里去了。他遇见沙法的儿子以利沙正在耕田。在他面前有十二对牛，他自己正在赶着第十二对牛。以利亚走过他那里去，把自己的外衣披在以利沙身上。

†[Wlb]以利亚遂去彼、遇沙法子以利沙耕于田、其前有牛十二双、以利沙御其最后者、以利亚过之、以己衣置于其身、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾离开那里，找到了沙法的儿子伊莱沙。伊莱沙正赶着一对牛在耕田，还有十一对牛在他前面；他赶的是最后的一对。伊莱贾脱下外袍，披在伊莱沙身上。

†[Kjv]So he departed thence, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him.

†[Nkjv]So he departed from there, and found Elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he was with the twelfth. Then Elijah passed by him and threw his mantle on him.

†[BBE]So he went away from there and came across Elisha, the son of Shaphat, ploughing with twelve yoke of oxen, he himself walking with the twelfth; and Elijah went up to him and put his robe on him.

†[GNT] Elijah left and found Elisha plowing with a team of oxen; there were eleven teams ahead of him, and he was plowing with the last one. Elijah took off his cloak and put it on Elisha.

†[NIV]So Elijah went from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen, and he himself was driving the twelfth pair. Elijah went up to him and threw his cloak around him.

本会注释　　耕地。从以利沙赶十二对牛耕地的事实，可以看出他的家庭相当富有。这十二对牛不可能只拉一副犁。以利沙在地里一定还有仆人，每个人负责一副犁，每副犁由两头牛来拉（见《先知与君王》218页）。以利沙是从他的犁头直接被呼召去从事上帝先知的使命的。
　　外衣。这件外衣是用骆驼毛做的，是典型的先知装束（见可1:6；《历代愿望》102页）。以利亚将自己的外衣搭在以利沙身上就等于呼召他。

王上19:20 以利沙就离开牛，跑到以利亚那里，说：“求你容我先与父母亲嘴，然后我便跟随你。”以利亚对他说：“你回去吧，我向你做了什么呢？” (串)太8:21路9:61

†[吕]以利沙就撇下那些牛，跑去追上以利亚，说：“请容我先和父母亲咀，然后我便来跟随你。”以利亚对他说：“你去吧，可要回来；因为我向你作了什么、你总要记得。”

†[思]厄里叟丢下那些牛，追上厄里亚说：“请你让我先回去和我的父母吻别，然後来跟随你。”厄里亚对他说：“你去罢！要再回来！因为我应为你作的，已经作了。”

†[当代]以利沙就立刻放下工作，对以利亚说：“请你让我先回去吻别爹娘，然后再跟你走吧。”以利亚就对他说：“你去吧，我并没有向你做过什么啊！”

†[新译]以利沙就撇下那些牛，跑在以利亚的后面，说：“请你允许我与父母亲吻别，然后我就跟随你。”以利亚对他说：“你回去吧！我向你作了什么呢？”

†[Wlb]乃弃牛、趋于以利亚后、曰、请容我与父母接吻、后必从尔、曰、归哉、我于尔何为乎、

†[Xdv]于是伊莱沙离开他的牛，去追伊莱贾，说：“等我向父母亲吻别了，然后就跟你走。”伊莱贾说：“好吧，你回去。我不阻止你！（或译：回去吧！可是要回来，因为刚才我向你做的是很要的事）”

†[Kjv]And he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, Go back again: for what have I done to thee?

†[Nkjv]And he left the oxen and ran after Elijah, and said, "Please let me kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow you." And he said to him, "Go back again, for what have I done to you?"

†[BBE]And letting the oxen be where they were, he came running after Elijah, and said, Only let me give a kiss to my father and mother, and then I will come after you. But he said to him, Go back again; for what have I done to you?

†[GNT] Elisha then left his oxen, ran after Elijah, and said, "Let me kiss my father and mother good-bye, and then I will go with you." Elijah answered, "All right, go back. I'm not stopping you!"

†[NIV]Elisha then left his oxen and ran after Elijah. "Let me kiss my father and mother good-by," he said, "and then I will come with you." "Go back," Elijah replied. "What have I done to you?"

本会注释　　离开牛。以利沙迅速回应。尽管他仍在田间手扶犁头赶牛耕地，但上帝看出他有资格为正义的事业做一个坚强有力的教师。
　　与父母亲嘴。当以利沙认识到这呼召的重要性后，他只要求在离家之前被允准去亲吻他所挚爱的父母，向他们道别。
　　回去吧。以利沙只是受到试验，而没有被拒绝。他是要选择跟从以利亚呢，还是选择留在家里呢？他所要做的是他一生中最重要的选择。

王上19:21 以利沙就离开他回去，宰了一对牛，用套牛的器具煮肉给民吃，随后就起身跟随以利亚，服事他。 (串)撒下24:22|王下3:11

†[吕]以利沙就离开他而回去，取了一对牛来宰，用套牛的器具去煮，将肉给众民吃；随后就起身去跟随以利亚、做他的助手。

†[思]厄里叟离开了厄里亚，回来牵出一对牛宰杀了，用驾驭牛的用具煮熟，分给众人吃；然後他便起身跟随厄里亚，作了他的侍从。

†[当代]以利沙离开了以利亚以后，就回去宰了两头牛，用来献祭，又用犁作柴把肉煮了分给同伴吃。之后，他就跟随了以利亚，服事他。

†[新译]以利沙就离开他回去了。他牵了一对牛来宰了，用套牛的器具把牛煮熟，就分给众人，他们都吃了。然后以利沙就起来，跟随以利亚，服事他。

†[Wlb]遂离之而归、取牛一双宰之、以驾牛之具烹其肉、与民食之、乃起、从以利亚、而服事之、

†[Xdv]伊莱沙就回去，把他的一对牛宰了，把轭当柴烧，煮了肉。他把肉分给大家；他们都吃了，然后伊莱沙去跟从伊莱贾，作他的助手。

†[Kjv]And he returned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen, and slew them, and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat. Then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him.

†[Nkjv]So Elisha turned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen and slaughtered them and boiled their flesh, using the oxen's equipment, and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he arose and followed Elijah, and became his servant.

†[BBE]And he went back, and took the oxen and put them to death, and cooking their flesh with the yokes of the oxen, he gave the people a feast. Then he got up and went after Elijah and became his servant.

†[GNT] Then Elisha went to his team of oxen, killed them, and cooked the meat, using the yoke as fuel for the fire. He gave the meat to the people, and they ate it. Then he went and followed Elijah as his helper.

†[NIV]So Elisha left him and went back. He took his yoke of oxen and slaughtered them. He burned the plowing equipment to cook the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow Elijah and became his attendant.

本会注释　　一对牛。以利沙取了一对他用来耕田的牛，宰杀了，用套牛的轭和耕田的犁点火煮肉，表明他不再需要这些东西。他和从前说再见了，即将要进入到为上帝服务之中。
　　服侍他。年长的先知需要一位年轻的伙伴和助手。这两个人从今以后就在耶和华的工作上成为一体。这种联合使我们想到了摩西和约书亚，保罗和西拉。两个人具有不同的个性，年轻安静的一方对于他热情年迈的同工大有帮助。
