17:17 那时,约拿单和亚希玛斯在隐罗结那里等候,不敢进城,恐怕被人看见。有一个使女出来,将这话告诉他们,他们就去报信给大卫王。
Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed by Enrogel; for they might not be seen to come into the city: and a wench went and told them; and they went and told king David.
17:18 然而有一个童子看见他们,就去告诉押沙龙。他们急忙跑到巴户琳某人的家里。那人院中有一口井,他们就下到井里。
Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom: but they went both of them away quickly, and came to a man's house in Bahurim, which had a well in his court; whither they went down.
17:19 那家的妇人用盖盖上井口,又在上头铺上碎麦,事就没有泄漏。
And the woman took and spread a covering over the well's mouth, and spread ground corn thereon; and the thing was not known.
17:20 押沙龙的仆人来到那家,问妇人说,亚希玛斯和约拿单在哪里。妇人说,他们过了河了。仆人找他们,找不着,就回耶路撒冷去了。
And when Absalom's servants came to the woman to the house, they said, Where is Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said unto them, They be gone over the brook of water. And when they had sought and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.
17:21 他们走后,二人从井里上来,去告诉大卫王说,亚希多弗如此如此定计害你,你们务要起来,快快过河。
And it came to pass, after they were departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David, and said unto David, Arise, and pass quickly over the water: for thus hath Ahithophel counselled against you.
17:22 于是大卫和跟随他的人都起来,过约旦河。到了天亮,无一人不过约旦河的。
Then David arose, and all the people that were with him, and they passed over Jordan: by the morning light there lacked not one of them that was not gone over Jordan.
17:23 亚希多弗见不依从他的计谋,就备上驴,归回本城。到了家,留下遗言,便吊死了,葬在他父亲的坟墓里。
And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his ass, and arose, and gat him home to his house, to his city, and put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.
17:24 大卫到了玛哈念,押沙龙和跟随他的以色列人也都过了约旦河。
Then David came to Mahanaim. And Absalom passed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
17:25 押沙龙立亚玛撒作元帅,代替约押。亚玛撒是以实玛利人(又作以色列人)以特拉的儿子。以特拉曾与拿辖的女儿亚比该亲近。这亚比该与约押的母亲洗鲁雅是姊妹。
And Absalom made Amasa captain of the host instead of Joab: which Amasa was a man's son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's mother.
17:26 押沙龙和以色列人都安营在基列地。
So Israel and Absalom pitched in the land of Gilead.
17:27 大卫到了玛哈念,亚扪族的拉巴人拿辖的儿子朔比,罗底巴人亚米利的儿子玛吉,基列的罗基琳人巴西莱,And it came to pass, when David was come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodebar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim,
17:28 带着被,褥,盆,碗,瓦器,小麦,大麦,麦面,炒谷,豆子,红豆,炒豆,Brought beds, and basons, and earthen vessels, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and parched corn, and beans, and lentiles, and parched pulse,
17:29 蜂蜜,奶油,绵羊,奶饼,供给大卫和跟随他的人吃。他们说,民在旷野,必饥渴困乏了。
And honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheese of kine, for David, and for the people that were with him, to eat: for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty, in the wilderness.
