12:1

καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουηλ πρὸς πάντα ἄνδρα Ισραηλ ἰδοὺ ἤκουσα φωνῆς ὑμῶν εἰς πάντα ὅσα εἴπατέ μοι καὶ ἐβασίλευσα ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς βασιλέα

And Samuel said to every man of Israel, Behold, I have hearkened to your voice in all that you said to me, and I have set a king to reign over you.

撒母耳對以色列眾人說：看哪，凡你們對我所說的，我都聽從了你們的話，為你們立了一位王治理你們。

12:2

καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ὁ βασιλεὺς διαπορεύεται ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν κἀγὼ γεγήρακα καὶ καθήσομαι καὶ οἱ υἱοί μου ἰδοὺ ἐν ὑμῖν κἀγὼ ἰδοὺ διελήλυθα ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν ἐκ νεότητός μου καὶ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης

And now behold, the king goes to and fro before you; and I have grown old and will sit down. And my sons, behold, are among you; and I, behold, have walked before you from my youth until this day.

現在看哪，這王在你們前面往來；我已年老，要坐下了。看哪，我的兒子們也在你們中間。看哪，我從幼年直到今日，都在你們面前行事。

12:3

ἰδοὺ ἐγώ ἀποκρίθητε κατ’ ἐμοῦ ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐνώπιον χριστοῦ αὐτοῦ μόσχον τίνος εἴληφα ἢ ὄνον τίνος εἴληφα ἢ τίνα κατεδυνάστευσα ὑμῶν ἢ τίνα ἐξεπίεσα ἢ ἐκ χειρὸς τίνος εἴληφα ἐξίλασμα καὶ ὑπόδημα ἀποκρίθητε κατ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ ἀποδώσω ὑμῖν

Here I am. Answer against me before the Lord and before his anointed: Whose calf have I taken? Or whose donkey have I taken? Or whom of you have I oppressed? Or whom have I squeezed? Or from whose hand have I taken a ransom and a sandal? Answer against me, and I will restore it to you.

我在這裡。你們要在耶和華和他受膏者面前作證告我：我奪過誰的牛？奪過誰的驢？欺壓過你們中間的誰？壓榨過誰？從誰手裡受過贖價和一雙鞋？你們作證告我，我必償還你們。

12:4

καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς Σαμουηλ οὐκ ἠδίκησας ἡμᾶς καὶ οὐ κατεδυνάστευσας καὶ οὐκ ἔθλασας ἡμᾶς καὶ οὐκ εἴληφας ἐκ χειρὸς οὐδενὸς οὐδέν

And they said to Samuel, You have not wronged us, nor have you oppressed us, nor have you crushed us, nor have you taken anything from anyone's hand.

他們對撒母耳說：你未曾虧負我們，未曾欺壓我們，未曾壓傷我們，也未曾從誰手裡受過甚麼。

12:5

καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουηλ πρὸς τὸν λαόν μάρτυς κύριος ἐν ὑμῖν καὶ μάρτυς χριστὸς αὐτοῦ σήμερον ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ὅτι οὐχ εὑρήκατε ἐν χειρί μου οὐθέν καὶ εἶπαν μάρτυς

And Samuel said to the people, The Lord is witness among you, and his anointed is witness today in this day, that you have found nothing in my hand. And they said, He is witness.

撒母耳對百姓說：今日在這日子，耶和華在你們中間作證，他的受膏者也作證：你們在我手裡沒有找著甚麼。他們說：願他作證。

12:6

καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουηλ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν λέγων μάρτυς κύριος ὁ ποιήσας τὸν Μωυσῆν καὶ τὸν Ααρων ὁ ἀναγαγὼν τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου

And Samuel said to the people, saying, The Lord is witness, who made Moyses and Aaron, who brought up our fathers out of Egypt.

撒母耳對百姓說：那立摩西和亞倫、又領我們列祖從埃及上來的耶和華，是作證的。

12:7

καὶ νῦν κατάστητε καὶ δικάσω ὑμᾶς ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἀπαγγελῶ ὑμῖν τὴν πᾶσαν δικαιοσύνην κυρίου ἃ ἐποίησεν ἐν ὑμῖν καὶ ἐν τοῖς πατράσιν ὑμῶν

And now stand still, and I will plead with you before the Lord, and I will declare to you all the righteousness of the Lord, the things he did among you and among your fathers.

現在你們要站住，我好在耶和華面前與你們理論，將耶和華向你們和你們列祖所行一切公義的事告訴你們。

12:8

ὡς εἰσῆλθεν Ιακωβ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς Αἴγυπτον καὶ ἐταπείνωσεν αὐτοὺς Αἴγυπτος καὶ ἐβόησαν οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν πρὸς κύριον καὶ ἀπέστειλεν κύριος τὸν Μωυσῆν καὶ τὸν Ααρων καὶ ἐξήγαγεν τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν ἐξ Αἰγύπτου καὶ κατῴκισεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῷ τόπῳ τούτῳ

When Iakob and his sons came into Egypt, and Egypt humbled them, then our fathers cried out to the Lord; and the Lord sent Moyses and Aaron, and he brought our fathers out of Egypt and settled them in this place.

從前雅各和他的兒子們進了埃及，埃及人苦待他們，我們的列祖就哀求耶和華。耶和華差遣摩西和亞倫，領我們的列祖出埃及，使他們住在這地方。

12:9

καὶ ἐπελάθοντο κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ αὐτῶν καὶ ἀπέδοτο αὐτοὺς εἰς χεῖρας Σισαρα ἀρχιστρατήγου Ιαβιν βασιλέως Ασωρ καὶ εἰς χεῖρας ἀλλοφύλων καὶ εἰς χεῖρας βασιλέως Μωαβ καὶ ἐπολέμησαν ἐν αὐτοῖς

But they forgot the Lord their God, and he sold them into the hands of Sisara, commander-in-chief of Iabin king of Asor, and into the hands of the Philistines, and into the hands of the king of Moab; and they made war against them.

他們卻忘記耶和華他們的神，他就把他們交在夏瑣王耶賓的元帥西西拉手裡，又交在非利士人手裡和摩押王手裡；這些人就攻打他們。
