列王纪下第7章

《圣经》列王纪下-第7章

王下7:1 以利沙说：“你们要听耶和华的话，耶和华如此说：明日约到这时候，在撒玛利亚城门口，一细亚细面要卖银一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也要卖银一舍客勒。” (串)本章18

†[吕]以利沙说：“请听永恒主的话；永恒主这么说：‘明天大约这时候、在撒玛利亚城门口、一细亚细面必卖一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也必卖一舍客勒。’”

†[思]厄里叟说：“请听上主的话：上主这样说：明天这个时候，在撒玛黎雅城门口，一“色阿”上等面粉只值一“协刻耳，”两“色阿”大麦，只值一“协刻耳。”

†[当代]以利沙说：“请听主的话，祂说，明天这个时候，在撒马利亚的城门口，七公升半上等面粉只卖一块银子，十五公升大麦也是卖一块银子。”

†[新译]以利沙说：“你们要听耶和华的话。耶和华这样说：‘明日大约这个时候，在撒玛利亚的城门，三公斤面粉只卖十一克银子，六公斤大麦也只是卖十一克银子。’”

†[Wlb]以利沙曰、宜听耶和华之言、耶和华云、明日此时、在撒玛利亚邑门、细面一细亚、售银一舍客勒、麰麦二细亚、售银一舍客勒、

†[Xdv]伊莱沙说：“要听上主所说的话！明天这时候，你们用一块银子能够在撒马利亚买到三公斤最好的小麦或六公斤大麦。”

†[Kjv]Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria.

†[Nkjv]Then Elisha said, "Hear the word of the LORD. Thus says the LORD: "Tomorrow about this time a seah of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, at the gate of Samaria."'

†[BBE]Then Elisha said, Give ear to the word of the Lord: the Lord says, Tomorrow, about this time, a measure of good meal will be offered for the price of a shekel and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the market-place of Samaria.

†[GNT] Elisha answered, "Listen to what the Lord says! By this time tomorrow you will be able to buy in Samaria ten pounds of the best wheat or twenty pounds of barley for one piece of silver."

†[NIV]Elisha said, "Hear the word of the Lord . This is what the Lord says: About this time tomorrow, a seah of flour will sell for a shekel and two seahs of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria."

本会注释　　耶和华的话。以色列王表达了他的看法。现在以利沙要说明耶和华的旨意。请注意到第六、第七章在这里的划分是人为的。比较恰当的分章应该放在这段叙述开始的六章二十四节。以利沙眼下应接受王的挑战，指出耶和华将要做的事。约兰当着众人的面将目前危机的责任推在上帝身上，并且宣称不再听耶和华的话，他想把局面控制在自己手中，期望找到解除危机的方法。但以利沙宣称，王无此能力，只有上帝才能解除困境。
　　细亚。希伯来文se'ah。一细亚约等于六卡夫，三细亚等于一伊法。一细亚大致等于6.66干夸脱（6.4升）（见《SDA圣经注释》卷一第167页）。前一天“两升”（原文为四分之一卡夫）鸽子粪要卖“银五舍客勒”（6:25节），第二天量涨了二十四倍，东西换成了面粉，价格却降到原来的五分之一，一舍客勒银子。换句话说，同样的银钱，在饥荒时只能买到一点点最贱最不足以为食物的东西，而在第二天竟然能买到比它量大一百二十倍的优质面粉。
　　撒玛利亚城门口。作为古代东方城市入口的城门，乃是拥挤兴旺的市场。在有了粮食的时候，撒玛利亚的一个城门就成为分粮的中心。

王下7:2 有一个搀扶王的军长对神人说：“即便耶和华使天开了窗户，也不能有这事。”以利沙说：“你必亲眼看见，却不得吃。” (串)王下5:18本章17|创7:11玛3:10

†[吕]有一个职司扶搀王、的军官回答神人说：“除非永恒主在天上开了罅隙，哪里有这事呢？”以利沙说：“你就看吧，你必亲眼看见，却吃不着。”

†[思]那个手扶君王的侍卫回答天主的人说：“纵使上主打开天上的闸，也不会有这样的事！”先知说：“你必亲眼看到，只是吃不上。”

†[当代]有一个扶驾的御林军官对先知说：“纵使主开了天上的窗户，也不可能有这样的事情发生啊。”以利沙说：“你必亲眼看见，但却吃不到。”

†[新译]但那搀扶王的官长回答神人，说：“即使耶和华在天上开了窗户，也不会有这事发生。”以利沙说：“看哪，你要亲眼看见，却吃不着。”

†[Wlb]扶王之军长谓上帝仆曰、即耶和华启牖于天、岂能有此事乎、以利沙曰、尔必目睹、惟不得食、

†[Xdv]王的侍从对伊莱沙说：“那是不可能的；即使上主打开天窗降下五谷也不可能！”伊莱沙说：“你一定会看见这事发生；但是你一点也吃不到。”

†[Kjv]Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

†[Nkjv]So an officer on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God and said, "Look, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, could this thing be?" And he said, "In fact, you shall see it with your eyes, but you shall not eat of it."

†[BBE]Then the captain whose arm was supporting the king said to the man of God, Even if the Lord made windows in heaven, would such a thing be possible? And he said, Your eyes will see it, but you will not have a taste of the food.

†[GNT] The personal attendant of the king said to Elisha, "That can't happen - not even if the Lord himself were to send grain at once!" "You will see it happen, but you won't get to eat any of the food," Elisha replied.

†[NIV]The officer on whose arm the king was leaning said to the man of God, "Look, even if the Lord should open the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen?" "You will see it with your own eyes," answered Elisha, "but you will not eat any of it!"

本会注释　　军长。希伯来文hashshalish，直译是“第三个[人]。”该词原指战车上的第三人，就像在赫人中那样。而亚述每辆战车上只安排两个人。后来它变成了东方朝廷中一种重要官员的头衔。当耶户杀约兰时，他的军长（shalish）毕甲奉命将约兰的尸体抛在田间（王下9:24,25）。本节中这个官员被说成是“搀扶王的”，说明他一定是个重要的人员，很可能是王的近身侍从，是王经常交托重要责任的人。就是这个人在第二天奉命去控制撒玛利亚城门口的局面，因为那里有粮食出售（7:16-18节）。这个官员当前出现在以利沙家中，暗示王也在场（见@王下6:33@注释）。
　　说。王的军长想要证明以利沙的话是多么的愚蠢以及完全不可能实现。他就这样站在一个不信耶和华的立场上为王辩护。
　　却不得吃。这个说亵渎话的人本来即将亲身见证以利沙预言的实现，但由于他的不信，他就不得分享那预言中所说的福气。

王下7:3 在城门那里有四个长大麻疯的人，他们彼此说：“我们为何坐在这里等死呢？ (串)利13:45,46

†[吕]有四个人、是患麻疯属之病的、在城门那里；他们彼此说：“我们为什么在这里坐着等死呢？

†[思]在城门口有四个癞病人，他们彼此说：“我们为什么在这坐着等死呢？

†[当代]城门口有四个麻疯病人正在商量说：“我们为什么坐在这里等死呢？

†[新译]有四个痲风病人在城门口那里，他们彼此说：“我们为什么坐在这里等死呢？

†[Wlb]邑门有癞者四人、相语曰、我坐此待毙、何为哉、

†[Xdv]在撒马利亚城门外，有四个患了恶性麻疯病的人；他们彼此交谈说：“我们何必在这里等死呢？

†[Kjv]And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?

†[Nkjv]Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate; and they said to one another, "Why are we sitting here until we die?

†[BBE]Now there were four lepers seated at the doorway into the town: and they said to one another, Why are we waiting here for death?

†[GNT] Four men who were suffering from a dreaded skin disease were outside the gates of Samaria, and they said to each other, "Why should we wait here until we die?

†[NIV]Now there were four men with leprosy at the entrance of the city gate. They said to each other, "Why stay here until we die?

本会注释　　在城门。这些麻风病人通常不能待在城内，摩西的律法要求麻风病人居住在“营外”（利13:46；民5:2,3）。这四个人没有在城门里面，他们只是靠近城门。
　　我们为何坐在这里？在正常的日子里，城内的居民会给麻风病人提供饮食，但现在由于饥荒，便再没有人给这些不幸的患者送去食物。他们都面临着死亡的威胁。

王下7:4 我们若说，进城去吧！城里有饥荒，必死在那里；若在这里坐着不动，也必是死。来吧，我们去投降亚兰人的军队，他们若留我们的活命，就活着；若杀我们，就死了吧！”

†[吕]我们若说：我们进城去吧，城里呢、闹饥荒，我们必死在那里；我们若在这里坐着不动呢，也是死。来吧，我们现在去投归亚兰人的军营吧；他们若让我们活着，我们就活着；他们若杀死我们，我们就死算了。”

†[思]如果我们决意进城去，城也有荒，我们必死在那；如果留在这，我们也是一样死；不如去投到阿兰人营中，假如他们让我们活着，我们就活着；假如他们要杀我们，我们就死罢。”

†[当代]如果我们进城，城里正闹饥荒，我们就必然饿死；如果干坐在这里，也是一样要死；不如，我们投到亚兰军中，他们倘若不杀我们，我们就有生机，不然，死就死吧！”

†[新译]我们如果说：‘我们进城去吧！’城里正有饥荒，我们就要死在那里。我们如果坐在这里，也是要死。现在，让我们去投降亚兰人的军队吧；如果他们饶我们一命，我们就可以活着；如果他们要杀死我们，我们就死吧。”

†[Wlb]若云入邑、则邑中饥、必死于彼、如坐于此、亦必死焉、其来、我侪往降于亚兰军、如存我生、则生、如杀我、则死耳、

†[Xdv]我们到城里去也没有用，反正会饿死在那里；我们留在这里也是死。我们不如向叙利亚军投降。他们最多是把我们杀死罢了，但说不定会饶我们的命。”

†[Kjv]If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill

†[Nkjv]If we say, "We will enter the city,' the famine is in the city, and we shall die there. And if we sit here, we die also. Now therefore, come, let us surrender to the army of the Syrians. If they keep us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall

†[BBE]If we say, We will go into the town, there is no food in the town, and we will come to our end there; and if we go on waiting here, death will come to us. Come then, let us give ourselves up to the army of Aram: if they let us go on living, then life will

†[GNT] It's no use going into the city, because we would starve to death in there; but if we stay here, we'll die also. So let's go to the Syrian camp; the worst they can do is kill us, but maybe they will spare our lives."

†[NIV]If we say, 'We'll go into the city'-the famine is there, and we will die. And if we stay here, we will die. So let's go over to the camp of the Arameans and surrender. If they spare us, we live; if they kill us, then we die."

王下7:5 黄昏的时候，他们起来往亚兰人的营盘去；到了营边，不见一人在那里。

†[吕]黄昏时候他们起来，往亚兰人的营盘去；到了亚兰人营盘的边儿，竟见那里一个人也没有。

†[思]他们于是在黄昏时起身，往阿兰人的营盘那去；及至到了阿兰人的营盘边时，哦！那一个人也没有了。

†[当代]于是，在傍晚时分，他们就动身往亚兰人的营地去，到达营边，却发现人影全无。

†[新译]于是他们在黄昏动身去到亚兰人的军营那里；他们来到亚兰人的军营外边，竟看不见一个人在那里。

†[Wlb]薄暮遂起、往亚兰营、至营之边隅、阒其无人、

†[Xdv]于是他们在天快黑的时候到叙利亚军营去。他们到了那里，一个人也没看见。

†[Kjv]And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there.

†[Nkjv]And they rose at twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians; and when they had come to the outskirts of the Syrian camp, to their surprise no one was there.

†[BBE]So in the half light they got up to go to the tents of Aram; but when they came to the outer line of tents, there was no one there.

†[GNT] So, as it began to get dark, they went to the Syrian camp, but when they reached it, no one was there.

†[NIV]At dusk they got up and went to the camp of the Arameans. When they reached the edge of the camp, not a man was there,

本会注释　　黄昏的时候。他们直等到黄昏，趁夜幕降临时前往敌人的营地，这样可以不被城楼上的同胞察觉，以为他们是叛变。
　　营边。这是指离城最近的亚兰营地的边缘，而不是指营地最远的部分。

王下7:6 因为主使亚兰人的军队听见车马的声音，是大军的声音；他们就彼此说：“这必是以色列王贿买赫人的诸王和埃及人的诸王来攻击我们。” (串)撒下5:24伯15:21|王上10:29

†[吕]原来主早已使亚兰人的军兵听见车声马声和大军的声音；他们就彼此说：“阿，这必是以色列王雇了赫人诸王和慕斯利（传统：埃及）人诸王来攻击我们的。”

†[思]原来上主早已使阿兰人的营盘中听到战车马队和大军的喧嚣声，他们就彼此说：“呀！以色列王雇用了赫特人王和慕兹黎人王来攻打我们了。”

†[当代]原来上帝使亚兰兵听见战车战马和大军的喧嚣声，他们就疑惧起来，以为是以色列王雇用了赫人诸王和埃及人诸王来攻营。

†[新译]因为主使亚兰人的军队听见战车、战马和大军的声音；他们就彼此说：“看哪，一定是以色列王雇用了赫人的众王和埃及人的众王来攻击我们。”

†[Wlb]盖耶和华使亚兰军旅、闻车声马声、大军之声、则相语曰、以色列王必贿赫族、与埃及诸王、来攻我矣、

†[Xdv]原来主使叙利亚人听到大队兵马和战车前进的声音，他们以为以色列王雇用赫人和埃及人的王以及军队来攻打他们。

†[Kjv]For the LORD had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Eg

†[Nkjv]For the LORD had caused the army of the Syrians to hear the noise of chariots and the noise of horses--the noise of a great army; so they said to one another, "Look, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Eg

†[BBE]For the Lord had made the sound of carriages and horses, and the noise of a great army, come to the ears of the Aramaeans, so that they said to one another, Truly, the king of Israel has got the kings of the Hittites and of the Egyptians for a price to ma

†[GNT] The Lord had made the Syrians hear what sounded like the advance of a large army with horses and chariots, and the Syrians thought that the king of Israel had hired Hittite and Egyptian kings and their armies to attack them.

†[NIV]for the Lord had caused the Arameans to hear the sound of chariots and horses and a great army, so that they said to one another, "Look, the king of Israel has hired the Hittite and Egyptian kings to attack us!"

本会注释　　听见……声音。类似的例子见@王下6:19@注释。
　　贿买。使用雇佣军在古代并不少见。亚扪人就曾招募亚兰人帮助他们抵挡大卫（撒下10:6和代上19:6,7）。在古代东方风云变幻的政治关系中，任何国家的军队在任何时候都有可能攻打任何其它的国家。
　　赫人。见本卷注释第30页。曾经强大的赫人王国现在仅剩一些残余了。但亚兰国北部小小的赫人城邦依旧保持着他们祖先尚武的传统，他们的军队对于亚兰来说还是一支极具威胁的力量。
　　埃及人的诸王。埃及正处于第二十二王朝（见@王上14:25@注释）。它的首都在三角洲东部的布巴斯提斯。当时的埃及处于利比亚王的统治之下。这里“埃及人的诸王”无疑是指埃及王治下那些附属国的首领们，而不是指着埃及王本人。

王下7:7 所以，在黄昏的时候他们起来逃跑，撇下帐棚、马、驴，营盘照旧，只顾逃命。 (串)诗48:4-6箴28:1

†[吕]所以他们在黄昏时候起来逃跑，撇下他们的帐棚、马、驴、──营盘都照旧──只顾逃命。

†[思]所以，他们在黄昏时，即起身逃走，丢下了他们的帐幕骡马，只顾逃命，留下营盘未动。

†[当代]所以，在黄昏的时候，他们便仓皇弃营而逃，连帐棚驴马也顾不了带走，营盘也留下未动。

†[新译]于是他们在黄昏的时候起来逃跑，他们丢下他们的帐幕，他们的马匹和他们的驴子；军营仍在那里，他们却只顾逃命去了。

†[Wlb]薄暮即起而遁、弃其帐幕马驴、留营如故、祇逃其生、

†[Xdv]因此，当天晚上，叙利亚人都逃命去了，丢下他们的帐棚、马匹、驴；营盘也照原样留在那里。

†[Kjv]Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life.

†[Nkjv]Therefore they arose and fled at twilight, and left the camp intact--their tents, their horses, and their donkeys--and they fled for their lives.

†[BBE]So they got up and went in flight, in the half light, without their tents or their horses or their asses or any of their goods; they went in flight, fearing for their lives.

†[GNT] So that evening the Syrians had fled for their lives, abandoning their tents, horses, and donkeys, and leaving the camp just as it was.

†[NIV]So they got up and fled in the dusk and abandoned their tents and their horses and donkeys. They left the camp as it was and ran for their lives.

本会注释　　这里是一幅突然疯狂逃跑的画面。亚兰人认为自己已四面受围。他们从营中冲出，每人只顾自己逃命，将所有的东西都抛在身后了。

王下7:8 那些长大麻疯的到了营边，进了帐棚，吃了喝了，且从其中拿出金银和衣服来，去收藏了；回来又进了一座帐棚，从其中拿出财物来去收藏了。

†[吕]那些患麻疯属之病的来到营盘边儿，进了一座帐棚，又吃又喝，又从那里拿起银子金子和衣服，去私藏着；回来，又进了另一座帐棚，又从那里拿起东西去私藏着。

†[思]这些癞病人到了营盘边，进了一个帐幕，又吃又喝，将那的金银和衣服拿走，去收藏起来；然后又回来，进了另一帐幕，拿走了那的东西，去收藏起来。

†[当代]那几个麻疯病人见一个人也没有，便走入帐棚，大吃大喝，又把那里的金银衣服搜个清光，藏好以后，回头又走到另一座帐棚，搜光了里面的财物，照样收藏起来。

†[新译]这些患痲风病的人来到军营的外边，他们进入其中一座帐幕，又吃又喝，并且从那里取去金子、银子和衣服，然后离去，把东西收藏起来。他们再回去，进入另一座帐幕，从那里拿走财物，去收藏起来。

†[Wlb]癞者至营之边隅、入一幕、式食式饮、携其金银衣服、出而匿之、返入他幕、亦携其物匿之、

†[Xdv]那四个人到了营地，进入帐棚，在那里又吃又喝；他们看到了金子、银子，和衣服就拿去藏起来，然后退出这座帐棚，进入另一座帐棚，再做同样的事。

†[Kjv]And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, an

†[Nkjv]And when these lepers came to the outskirts of the camp, they went into one tent and ate and drank, and carried from it silver and gold and clothing, and went and hid them; then they came back and entered another tent, and carried some from there also, an

†[BBE]And when those lepers came to the outer line of tents, they went into one tent, and had food and drink, and took from it silver and gold and clothing, which they put in a secret place; then they came back and went into another tent from which they took mo

†[GNT] When the four men reached the edge of the camp, they went into a tent, ate and drank what was there, grabbed the silver, gold, and clothing they found, and went off and hid them; then they returned, entered another tent, and did the same thing.

†[NIV]The men who had leprosy reached the edge of the camp and entered one of the tents. They ate and drank, and carried away silver, gold and clothes, and went off and hid them. They returned and entered another tent and took some things from it and hid them a

本会注释　　那些长大麻风的人首先想到满足自己饥饿难耐的肚肠。之后他们出于本能地将那些唾手可得的财物藏了起来。

王下7:9 那时，他们彼此说：“我们所做的不好！今日是有好信息的日子，我们竟不作声！若等到天亮，罪必临到我们。来吧，我们与王家报信去！”

†[吕]然后彼此说：“我们所作的很不好；今天是有好消息的日子，我们竟不作声；若等到早上辰光，我们就要受罪罚了；来吧；我们现在就去向王家里报信吧！”

†[思]以后，癞病人彼此说：“我们这样做得不对，今天原是报喜讯的日子，我们竟然不声不响；如果等到早晨天亮，我们就有罪了。来，现在我们就去向王室报信！”

†[当代]他们彼此商量说：“我们这样做是不对的，今日原是个报喜讯的日子，我们竟不做声，如果等到天亮，我们就难辞其咎了。走，我们向王报信去。”

†[新译]他们彼此说：“我们这样作是不对的。今天是报好消息的日子，我们竟不出声，如果我们等到早上天亮，我们就算为有罪了。现在，来吧，我们要去通知王家。”

†[Wlb]乃相语曰、我所为者未善、今日有佳音、而我侪默尔、待至平旦、罪必及我、我侪其往、报于王家、

†[Xdv]后来他们彼此说：“我们不应该这样做；我们有好消息，不可不告诉人。如果我们等到明天早上才说，我们一定会受惩罚。我们现在就去告诉王的官员吧！”

†[Kjv]Then they said one to another, We do not well: this day is a day of good tidings, and we hold our peace: if we tarry till the morning light, some mischief will come upon us: now therefore come, that we may go and tell the king's household.

†[Nkjv]Then they said to one another, "We are not doing right. This day is a day of good news, and we remain silent. If we wait until morning light, some punishment will come upon us. Now therefore, come, let us go and tell the king's household."

†[BBE]Then they said to one another, We are not doing right. Today is a day of good news, and we say nothing: if we go on waiting here till the morning, punishment will come to us. So let us go and give the news to those of the king's house.

†[GNT] But then they said to each other, "We shouldn't be doing this! We have good news, and we shouldn't keep it to ourselves. If we wait until morning to tell it, we are sure to be punished. Let's go right now and tell the king's officers!"

†[NIV]Then they said to each other, "We're not doing right. This is a day of good news and we are keeping it to ourselves. If we wait until daylight, punishment will overtake us. Let's go at once and report this to the royal palace."

本会注释　　我们所作的不好。他们过了良久才发现自己做的不好。城中的男女老幼都在忍受饥馑的折磨，而他们此时却只顾自己的利益。丰富的粮食近在咫尺，他们若忍见城内的同胞灭亡而不去报信，倒毙之人的血就要归在他们攫取的手和贪婪的心上。他们最终明白，好运带给他们的责任和机会是一样的。
　　罪。一颗内疚的心认识到作恶的人必要付出代价。没有人作恶会不受到惩罚。罪恶的结果总会落在犯罪者的头上。

王下7:10 他们就去叫守城门的，告诉他们说：“我们到了亚兰人的营，不见一人在那里，也无人声，只有拴着的马和驴，帐棚都照旧。”

†[吕]他们便去叫守城门的，告诉他们说：“我们到了亚兰人的营，竟见那里一个人也没有，没有人的声音，只有马拴着，驴拴着，帐棚都照旧。”

†[思]他们于是去向把守城门的人喊叫，给他们报告说：“我们曾到过罢兰人的营盘，那一个人也没有，也没有人声，只有栓着的马，栓着的驴；帐幕一点未动。”

†[当代]他们就一齐往城门口走去，呼叫那守城的人，向他们报告说：“我们曾到亚兰人的营中，里面全无人声，什么人也没有，只有拴著的马和驴，帐棚都排列得整整齐齐的。”

†[新译]他们就去呼喊守城门的，告诉他们说：“我们去过亚兰人的军营那里，看见那里一个人也没有，也没有人声。只有马仍拴着，驴仍拴着，帐幕都原封不动。”

†[Wlb]遂往、呼守门者、告之曰、我至亚兰营、见无人在、亦无人声、惟马驴系焉、帐幕如故、

†[Xdv]于是他们离开叙利亚军营，回到撒马利亚，向看守城门的人喊说：“我们到过了叙利亚军营，看不到人，也听不到人声。马匹和驴都还拴着，帐棚也照原样留在那里。”

†[Kjv]So they came and called unto the porter of the city: and they told them, saying, We came to the camp of the Syrians, and, behold, there was no man there, neither voice of man, but horses tied, and asses tied, and the tents as they were.

†[Nkjv]So they went and called to the gatekeepers of the city, and told them, saying, "We went to the Syrian camp, and surprisingly no one was there, not a human sound--only horses and donkeys tied, and the tents intact."

†[BBE]So they came in, and, crying out to the door-keepers of the town, they gave them the news, saying, We came to the tents of the Aramaeans, and there was no one there and no voice of man, only the horses and the asses in their places, and the tents as they

†[GNT] So they left the Syrian camp, went back to Samaria, and called out to the guards at the gates: "We went to the Syrian camp and didn't see or hear anybody; the horses and donkeys have not been untied, and the tents are just as the Syrians left them."

†[NIV]So they went and called out to the city gatekeepers and told them, "We went into the Aramean camp and not a man was there-not a sound of anyone-only tethered horses and donkeys, and the tents left just as they were."

王下7:11 守城门的叫了众守门的人来，他们就进去与王家报信。

†[吕]守城门的叫了人进里面向王家里报信。

†[思]把守城门的人就高声喊叫，向王室传报消息。

†[当代]守城门的人就向王报告。

†[新译]守城门的就喊叫起来，又往城内给王家报信。

†[Wlb]守门者乃呼告于王家、

†[Xdv]守卫宣布了这消息，并且把消息传到王宫。

†[Kjv]And he called the porters; and they told it to the king's house within.

†[Nkjv]And the gatekeepers called out, and they told it to the king's household inside.

†[BBE]Then the door-keepers, crying out, gave the news to those inside the king's house.

†[GNT] The guards announced the news, and it was reported in the palace.

†[NIV]The gatekeepers shouted the news, and it was reported within the palace.

本会注释　　守城门的。这是指看守撒玛利亚城门的人。

王下7:12 王夜间起来，对臣仆说：“我告诉你们亚兰人向我们如何行。他们知道我们饥饿，所以离营，埋伏在田野，说：‘以色列人出城的时候，我们就活捉他们，得以进城。’”

†[吕]王夜间起来，对臣仆说：“亚兰人向我们所作的是什么意思、我告诉你们。他们知道我们在闹饥荒，所以他们就离开营盘、在野外埋伏着，说：‘以色列人一出城，我们便可以活活捉住他们，我们就得以进城了。’”

†[思]君王夜间起来，对自己的臣仆说：“现在让我给你们解释，阿兰人对我们所做得事：他们知道我们闹荒，所以离开营盘，埋伏在田间，心想：以色列人必由城出来，那时，我们可将他们活活捉住，然后开进城去。”

†[当代]君王闻讯，连夜起来对他的大臣说：“这件事我可以给你们一个解释。亚兰人知道我们正闹饥荒，所以故意离营，埋伏田间，等以色列人出城，便把他们活捉，然后挥军进城。”

†[新译]王在夜间起来，对他的臣仆说：“我告诉你们亚兰人对我们所作的是怎么一回事。他们知道我们闹饥荒，所以出到军营外在田野埋伏，心里说：‘他们必从城里出来。我们就可以活捉他们，进入城里去了。’”

†[Wlb]王夜起、谓其臣曰、亚兰人于我所为、我以示尔、彼知我饥、故出营伏于田、意谓其人出城时、我侪则生擒之、而入其邑、

†[Xdv]当时还是晚上，但是王起对他的臣仆说：“我告诉你们叙利亚人的阴谋！他们知道我们这里闹饥荒，所以故意离开营地，埋伏在田野。他们猜想我们会出城找食物，那时就活捉我们，占据这城。”

†[Kjv]And the king arose in the night, and said unto his servants, I will now shew you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we be hungry; therefore are they gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, When they come out of the city

†[Nkjv]So the king arose in the night and said to his servants, "Let me now tell you what the Syrians have done to us. They know that we are hungry; therefore they have gone out of the camp to hide themselves in the field, saying, "When they come out of the city

†[BBE]Then the king got up in the night and said to his servants, This is my idea of what the Aramaeans have done to us. They have knowledge that we are without food; and so they have gone out of their tents, and are waiting secretly in the open country, saying

†[GNT] It was still night, but the king got out of bed and said to his officials, "I'll tell you what the Syrians are planning! They know about the famine here, so they have left their camp to go and hide in the countryside. They think that we will leave the ci

†[NIV]The king got up in the night and said to his officers, "I will tell you what the Arameans have done to us. They know we are starving; so they have left the camp to hide in the countryside, thinking, 'They will surely come out, and then we will take them a

本会注释　　约兰不相信上帝的先知所预言的事真的实现了。他的不信使他在这蒙福和拯救的时刻只能想到事情的阴暗面。亚兰人的军队是撤走了，但笼罩在王心头的怀疑还没有消失。粮食就放在城外等着他去取，但他却不能接受这个事实。上帝凭着祂的仁慈良善实现了祂的话，但约兰却不承认。王邪恶和怀疑的本性阻止他相信那可怕的围困已经结束了，他也不能相信城中的饥荒就要解除，但对于相信和接受的人，那使他们活命的粮食马上就可以得到了。

王下7:13 有一个臣仆对王说：“我们不如用城里剩下之马中的五匹马（马和城里剩下的以色列人都是一样，快要灭绝），打发人去窥探。”

†[吕]臣仆中、有一个人回答王说：“从剩下的马、在城里所剩下的之中、叫人去牵五匹来吧。反正所有在城里剩下来的以色列大众也必像所有死去的以色列大众早晚都死去阿。我们打发人去看看吧。”

†[思]有个臣仆回答说：“请叫人从这所剩下的马中，牵出五匹来，无论怎样，同别的一样要死，倒不如派人去看看。

†[当代]其中一个大臣献议说：“不如派人用城中仅存的五匹马出去打探一下，横竖这五匹马和城中剩下的以色列人都快要同遭灭绝的厄运了。”

†[新译]他的一位臣仆回答，说：“请叫人拉五匹剩下的马来；看哪，它们像所有剩下在这里的以色列人，都要像所有死去的以色列人一样；让我们打发人去看看吧。”

†[Wlb]一臣对曰、请于邑中所遗之马、遣人取其五匹、而往窥之、以色列人几至灭绝、此马之数、如遗民焉、

†[Xdv]王的一个臣仆说：“城里的居民反正都快完了，好像那些死了的人一样，迟早会丧命的。所以，何不打发几个人，骑上剩下的五匹马，去看看到底是怎么回事。”

†[Kjv]And one of his servants answered and said, Let some take, I pray thee, five of the horses that remain, which are left in the city, (behold, they are as all the multitude of Israel that are left in it: behold, I say, they are even as all the multitude of t

本会注释　　一个臣仆。这个仆人比他的主人表现出了更大的智慧。他的回答具有信心并表现出良好而又实际的理智。毕竟麻风病人的报告中是存在现实可能的。那为什么不努力去找出事实真相呢，况且这样做的成本又不会太高。城中还存有几匹马，为什么不利用它们去查看一下呢？

王下7:14 于是取了两辆车和马，王差人去追寻亚兰军，说：“你们去窥探窥探。”

†[吕]有人取了两辆车和马来，王就打发人去追寻亚兰的军兵，说：“你们去看看。”

†[思]他们于是推出两辆战车，五匹马，君王就派他们去追赶阿兰军队说：“你们去看看！”

†[当代]王准奏，各人于是预备两辆车、五匹马，王就指派一些人出去追寻亚兰军，王说：“你们去打探打探。”

†[新译]于是他们取了两辆战车和马匹，王差人去追踪亚兰军，吩咐他们：“去查看吧。”

†[Wlb]遂取马与二车、王遣之追袭亚兰军曰、往而察之、

†[Xdv]于是，他们选出几个人来。王派这些人乘坐两辆马车，指示他们前去探察叙利亚军队的实况。

†[Kjv]They took therefore two chariot horses; and the king sent after the host of the Syrians, saying, Go and see.

†[Nkjv]Therefore they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent them in the direction of the Syrian army, saying, "Go and see."

†[BBE]So they took two horsemen; and the king sent them after the army of the Aramaeans, saying, Go and see.

†[GNT] They chose some men, and the king sent them in two chariots with instructions to go and find out what had happened to the Syrian army.

†[NIV]So they selected two chariots with their horses, and the king sent them after the Aramean army. He commanded the drivers, "Go and find out what has happened."

本会注释　　两辆车和马。直译是“两辆马拉的战车。”七十士译本为骑马的人。

王下7:15 他们就追寻到约但河，看见满道上都是亚兰人急跑时丢弃的衣服器具，使者就回来报告王。

†[吕]使者追寻到约但河，看见路上满是亚兰人慌慌张张时所丢弃的衣服和器物，就回来，向王报告。

†[思]那些人追踪阿兰人，直到约旦河，见路上满是阿兰人在仓卒逃走中，丢下的衣服和装备；使者们便回来报告了君王。

†[当代]他们快马加鞭地追去，到了约旦河，看见路上丢满了亚兰军仓猝逃走时弃下的衣服和装备，他们就回来报告王。

†[新译]他们就去追踪亚兰军直到约旦河。看哪，沿途堆满了衣物器具，就是亚兰人在匆忙逃走时丢弃的。于是使者回去向王报告。

†[Wlb]乃追袭之、至约但、见衣械遍于途、即亚兰人疾遁而弃者、使者返告于王、

†[Xdv]这些人一直走到约旦河，沿路看见叙利亚人逃走时所丢下的衣服和用具，他们就回去报告王。

†[Kjv]And they went after them unto Jordan: and, lo, all the way was full of garments and vessels, which the Syrians had cast away in their haste. And the messengers returned, and told the king.

†[Nkjv]And they went after them to the Jordan; and indeed all the road was full of garments and weapons which the Syrians had thrown away in their haste. So the messengers returned and told the king.

†[BBE]And they went after them as far as Jordan; and all the road was covered with clothing and vessels dropped by the Aramaeans in their flight. So those who were sent went back and gave the news to the king.

†[GNT] The men went as far as the Jordan, and all along the road they saw the clothes and equipment that the Syrians had abandoned as they fled. Then they returned and reported to the king.

†[NIV]They followed them as far as the Jordan, and they found the whole road strewn with the clothing and equipment the Arameans had thrown away in their headlong flight. So the messengers returned and reported to the king.

本会注释　　所有的证据都显示亚兰人已经回家了。出去的人一路查看来到约旦河边。如果他们再走下去就到大马士革了。从撒玛利亚到约旦河边取直线最近也有32公里。这已经足够考察周围的情况了。希伯来的使者决意要弄清事实的真相。一切事实都表明，亚兰人在极度的惊慌中逃跑了，将所有可能妨碍他们逃跑的东西都丢弃了。

王下7:16 众人就出去，掳掠亚兰人的营盘。于是一细亚细面卖银一舍客勒，二细亚大麦也卖银一舍客勒，正如耶和华所说的。

†[吕]众民就出去，掠劫亚兰人的营。于是一细亚细面就卖了一舍客勒银子，二细亚大麦也卖了一舍客勒银子，正如永恒主所说的话。

†[思]人民便出来抢掠了阿兰人的营盘。于是一“色阿”上等面粉，只值一“协刻耳，”两“色阿”大麦，只值一“协刻耳，”正应验了上主所说的话。

†[当代]于是城中的民众便出来劫掠亚兰人的营地。这时候，正如主说过的一样，七公升半上等面粉只卖一块银子，十五公升大麦也是卖一块银子。

†[新译]众民就出去，抢掠亚兰人的军营。于是三公斤面粉卖十一克银子，六公斤大麦也卖十一克银子，好像耶和华所说的。

†[Wlb]民遂出、掠亚兰营、于是细面一细亚、售银一舍客勒、麰麦二细亚、售银一舍客勒、如耶和华所言、

†[Xdv]撒马利亚的居民急忙出城，掠夺叙利亚人的营地。这时，正如上主说过的：三公斤最好的小麦或六公斤大麦只卖一块银子。

†[Kjv]And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.

†[Nkjv]Then the people went out and plundered the tents of the Syrians. So a seah of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the LORD.

†[BBE]Then the people went out and took the goods from the tents of the Aramaeans. So a measure of good meal was to be had for the price of a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, as the Lord had said.

†[GNT] The people of Samaria rushed out and looted the Syrian camp. And as the Lord had said, ten pounds of the best wheat or twenty pounds of barley were sold for one piece of silver.

†[NIV]Then the people went out and plundered the camp of the Arameans. So a seah of flour sold for a shekel, and two seahs of barley sold for a shekel, as the Lord had said.

本会注释　　事实并非王所想象的。所有的迹象都证实了耶和华的话。祂的话永远真实可信。上帝所说的必会成就。一个对上帝有信心之人所走的是一条稳健可靠的道路。预言的实现总是不断地谴责人的疑惑。如果约兰归向耶和华，他就可以将希望的信息带给他的人民。如果他听了以利沙的话，他早已安享太平并给百姓树立一种勇敢和信任的榜样。当人拒绝相信耶和华的话时，他所得到的只有损失。相信上帝的就走在智慧和生命的道路上。它给人在今生带来喜乐和平安，并给人指明通向永生的道路。

王下7:17 王派搀扶他的那军长在城门口弹压，众人在那里将他践踏，他就死了，正如神人在王下来见他的时候所说的。 (串)本章2

†[吕]王派了手扶搀他、的那个军官在城门口弹压着；众民在城门口竟直践踏他，他就死了，正如神人在王下来见他时所说过的；

†[思]君王派定那手扶自己的侍卫，把守城门；但人民在城门口把他踏死了，应验了天主的人，在君王下来见他时，所说的话。

†[当代]王命搀扶他的御林军官守著城门，维持秩序，但在混乱中他竟被众人践踏而死，应验了以利沙在王下来见他时所说的话，

†[新译]王指派那官长，就是那搀扶他的，在城门口镇压。众民在城门那里把他践踏在地，他就死了，好像神人所说的，就是王下来到神人那里时，他所说的。

†[Wlb]王委扶之之军长监邑门、民于邑门践之而死、如上帝仆于王来见时所言、

†[Xdv]以色列王派侍从到城门口指挥，却被来往的人群踩死在那里，正如伊莱沙在王去看他时所预言的。

†[Kjv]And the king appointed the lord on whose hand he leaned to have the charge of the gate: and the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spake when the king came down to him.

†[Nkjv]Now the king had appointed the officer on whose hand he leaned to have charge of the gate. But the people trampled him in the gate, and he died, just as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.

†[BBE]And the king gave authority to that captain, on whose arm he was supported, to have control over the doorway into the town; but he was crushed to death there under the feet of the people, as the man of God had said when the king went down to him.

†[GNT] It so happened that the king of Israel had put the city gate under the command of the officer who was his personal attendant. The officer was trampled to death there by the people and died, as Elisha had predicted when the king went to see him.

†[NIV]Now the king had put the officer on whose arm he leaned in charge of the gate, and the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died, just as the man of God had foretold when the king came down to his house.

本会注释　　在城门口弹压。此时，这是一个重大的责任。当人们听说亚兰人逃跑之后，所有人脑子里只存在一个念头，就是奔出城外去找吃的。此刻的局面很难控制。王在这个关键的时候很有可能站在城门口，或者城墙上，纵览城下和亚兰人的营盘。

王下7:18 神人曾对王说：“明日约到这时候，在撒玛利亚城门口，二细亚大麦要卖银一舍客勒，一细亚细面也要卖银一舍客勒。” (串)本章1

†[吕]神人所告诉王的话是说：“明天大约到时候、在撒玛利亚城门口、二细亚大麦必卖一舍客勒银子，一细亚细面也必卖一舍客勒银子”；

†[思]原来，天主的人对君王说过：“明天这个时候，在撒玛黎雅城门口一‘色阿’上等面粉，只值一‘协刻耳’。两‘色阿’大麦，只值一‘协刻耳’。”

†[当代]以利沙曾对王说过，明天这个时候，在撒马利亚城门口，十五公升大麦只卖一块银子，七公升半上等面粉也是卖一块银子。

†[新译]这是因为当神人对王说：“明天大约这个时分，在撒玛利亚城门口，六公斤大麦卖十一克银子，三公斤面粉也卖十一克银子。”

†[Wlb]盖上帝仆曾言于王曰、明日此时、在撒玛利亚邑门、细面一细亚、售银一舍客勒、麰麦二细亚、售银一舍客勒、

†[Xdv]伊莱沙曾经告诉王，明天这时候，在撒马利亚，一块银子可买三公斤最好的小麦或六公斤大麦。

†[Kjv]And it came to pass as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel, shall be to morrow about this time in the gate of Samaria:

†[Nkjv]So it happened just as the man of God had spoken to the king, saying, "Two seahs of barley for a shekel, and a seah of fine flour for a shekel, shall be sold tomorrow about this time in the gate of Samaria."

†[BBE]So the words of the man of God came true, which he said to the king: Two measures of barley will be offered for the price of a shekel and a measure of good meal for a shekel, tomorrow about this time in the market-place of Samaria.

†[GNT] Elisha had told the king that by that time the following day ten pounds of the best wheat or twenty pounds of barley would be sold in Samaria for one piece of silver,

†[NIV]It happened as the man of God had said to the king: "About this time tomorrow, a seah of flour will sell for a shekel and two seahs of barley for a shekel at the gate of Samaria."

本会注释　　在本节和下面几节中，作者主要重述他说过的话。他带着明显的喜悦再次叙述以利沙的预言和那军长不信的话，再次表明先知的预言是如何完全应验了。
　　耶和华藉着这些经验慢慢引领以色列人重新找回信心和顺从，并转向他们祖先的信仰。多年以来百姓一直在崇拜偶像。祭司和民中的首领尽都邪恶。王带头离道反教、悖逆上帝。全地满了不公、败德、放纵和残酷的事。崇拜的殿宇成了作恶的场所。上帝的选民远离公义、圣洁和平安的道路。他们需要重新学习认识上帝，了解祂的仁慈与良善，明白祂爱祂的百姓，希望他们走在怜悯、公正和真理的道路上。但就以色列目前的状况来说，他们很难学会这些课程。普通的手段已经不能解决这些问题。因此上帝差遣以利亚、以利沙等人前去宣扬责备的信息，引起百姓的注意，又为他们行大神迹。结果很多人重新回归理智和公义，相信并顺从上帝。这些上帝的仆人在他们的同胞面前过着一种圣洁的生活，将生命和上帝的慈爱彰显出来，结果，一股新的希望和精神进入人们的内心和生活里。地上的儿女又一次看到了天上的平安与公义。以利沙也看到了自己劳苦的果效。

王下7:19 那军长对神人说：“即便耶和华使天开了窗户，也不能有这事。”神人说：“你必亲眼看见，却不得吃。” (串)本章2

†[吕]那军官回答神人说：“除非永恒主在天上开了罅隙，哪会有呢？”神人说：“你就看吧，你必亲眼看见，却吃不着。”

†[思]那侍卫曾回答天主的人说：“纵然上主打开天上的闸，也不会有这样的事！”先知回答说：“你必亲眼看到，只是吃不上。”

†[当代]但那军官对先知说，纵使主开了天上的窗户，也不可能有这样的事情发生。以利沙听了他的话就告诉他，他必亲眼看见这事，但却吃不到。

†[新译]那官长回答神人，说：“即使耶和华在天上开了窗户，也不会有这事发生。”神人说：“看哪，你要亲眼看见，却吃不着。”

†[Wlb]其时军长谓上帝仆曰、即耶和华启牖于天、岂能有此事乎、曰、尔必目睹、惟不得食、

†[Xdv]王的侍从说：“那是不可能的；即使上主打开天窗降下五谷也不可能！”伊莱沙回答他：“你一定会看见这事发生，但你一点也吃不到。”

†[Kjv]And that lord answered the man of God, and said, Now, behold, if the LORD should make windows in heaven, might such a thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof.

†[Nkjv]Then that officer had answered the man of God, and said, "Now look, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, could such a thing be?" And he had said, "In fact, you shall see it with your eyes, but you shall not eat of it."

†[BBE]And that captain said to the man of God, Even if the Lord made windows in heaven, would such a thing be possible? And he said to him, Your eyes will see it, but you will not have a taste of the food.

†[GNT] to which the officer had answered, "That can't happen - not even if the Lord himself were to send grain at once!" And Elisha had replied, "You will see it happen, but you won't get to eat any of the food."

†[NIV]The officer had said to the man of God, "Look, even if the Lord should open the floodgates of the heavens, could this happen?" The man of God had replied, "You will see it with your own eyes, but you will not eat any of it!"

王下7:20 这话果然应验在他身上；因为众人在城门口将他践踏，他就死了。

†[吕]这事果然应验到他身上了：众民在城门口直践踏他，他就死了。

†[思]这事果然发生在他身上了：人民在城门口把他踏死了。

†[当代]这话果然应验在他身上；众人在城门口践踏他，他就死了。

†[新译]这事果然发生在他身上：众民把他践踏在地，他就死了。

†[Wlb]斯皆应于其身、民于邑门践之而死、

†[Xdv]这话果然应验。他死了，被城门口来往的人群踩死了。

†[Kjv]And so it fell out unto him: for the people trode upon him in the gate, and he died.

†[Nkjv]And so it happened to him, for the people trampled him in the gate, and he died.

†[BBE]And such was his fate; for he was crushed to death under the feet of the people, in the doorway into the town.

†[GNT] And that is just what happened to him - he died, trampled to death by the people at the city gate.

†[NIV]And that is exactly what happened to him, for the people trampled him in the gateway, and he died.
