47:1
καὶ μετὰ τοῦτον ἀνέστη Ναθαν προφητεύειν ἐν ἡμέραις Δαυιδ
在他以後，拿單興起，在大衛的日子說預言。
And after him rose up Nathan To prophesy in the days of David.
47:2
ὥσπερ στέαρ ἀφωρισμένον ἀπὸ σωτηρίου οὕτως Δαυιδ ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ
如同從平安祭中分別出來的脂油，大衛也照樣從以色列眾子中被分別出來。
As is the fat when it is separated from the peace offering, So was David separated from the children of Israel.
47:3
ἐν λέουσιν ἔπαιξεν ὡς ἐν ἐρίφοις καὶ ἐν ἄρκοις ὡς ἐν ἄρνασι προβάτων
他戲弄獅子，如同戲弄山羊羔；又對付熊，如同對付羣中的羊羔。
He played with lions as with kids, And with bears as with lambs of the flock.
47:4
ἐν νεότητι αὐτοῦ οὐχὶ ἀπέκτεινεν γίγαντα καὶ ἐξῆρεν ὀνειδισμὸν ἐκ λαοῦ ἐν τῷ ἐπᾶραι χεῖρα ἐν λίθῳ σφενδόνης καὶ καταβαλεῖν γαυρίαμα τοῦ Γολιαθ
他年輕時豈不是擊殺了巨人，從百姓中除去凌辱嗎？他舉手用機弦甩石，打倒了歌利亞的狂傲。
In his youth did he not kill a giant, And take away reproach from the people, When he lifted up his hand with a sling stone, And beat down the boasting of Goliath?
47:5
ἐπεκαλέσατο γὰρ κύριον τὸν ὕψιστον καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐν τῇ δεξιᾷ αὐτοῦ κράτος ἐξᾶραι ἄνθρωπον δυνατὸν ἐν πολέμῳ ἀνυψῶσαι κέρας λαοῦ αὐτοῦ
因為他求告至高的主，主就賜力量在他右手，使他殺死那善戰的勇士，高舉本國百姓的角。
For he called upon the Most High Lord; And he gave him strength in his right hand, To kill a man mighty in war, To exalt the horn of his people.
47:6
οὕτως ἐν μυριάσιν ἐδόξασαν αὐτὸν καὶ ᾔνεσαν αὐτὸν ἐν εὐλογίαις κυρίου ἐν τῷ φέρεσθαι αὐτῷ διάδημα δόξης
於是人因他殺敵成萬而尊崇他，因主的福而稱讚他，又把榮耀的冠冕戴在他頭上。
So they glorified him for his ten thousands, And praised him for the blessings of the Lord, In that there was given him a diadem of glory.
47:7
ἐξέτριψεν γὰρ ἐχθροὺς κυκλόθεν καὶ ἐξουδένωσεν Φυλιστιιμ τοὺς ὑπεναντίους ἕως σήμερον συνέτριψεν αὐτῶν κέρας
因為他四面剪除仇敵，又使敵對的非利士人歸於無有，直到今日折斷了他們的角。
For he destroyed the enemies on every side, And brought to nothing the Philistines his adversaries, Brake their horn in pieces to this day.
47:8
ἐν παντὶ ἔργῳ αὐτοῦ ἔδωκεν ἐξομολόγησιν ἁγίῳ ὑψίστῳ ῥήματι δόξης ἐν πάσῃ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ ὕμνησεν καὶ ἠγάπησεν τὸν ποιήσαντα αὐτόν
他在一切的作為上，都用榮耀的言語向至高的聖者稱謝；他全心歌頌，又愛那造他的主。
In every work of his he gave thanks to the Holy One Most High with words of glory; With his whole heart he sang praise, And loved him that made him.
47:9
καὶ ἔστησεν ψαλτῳδοὺς κατέναντι τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ ἐξ ἠχοῦς αὐτῶν γλυκαίνειν μέλη
他又設立歌唱的人在祭壇前，使他們的歌聲發出甘美的旋律。
Also he set singers before the altar, And to make sweet melody by their music.
47:10
ἔδωκεν ἐν ἑορταῖς εὐπρέπειαν καὶ ἐκόσμησεν καιροὺς μέχρι συντελείας ἐν τῷ αἰνεῖν αὐτοὺς τὸ ἅγιον ὄνομα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπὸ πρωίας ἠχεῖν τὸ ἁγίασμα
他使節期顯為美好，把時令安排得盡善盡美，使眾人讚美主的聖名，又從清晨起在聖所發出聲響。
He gave comeliness to the feasts, And set in order the seasons to perfection, While they praised his holy name, And the sanctuary sounded from early morning.
47:11
κύριος ἀφεῖλεν τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνύψωσεν εἰς αἰῶνα τὸ κέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ διαθήκην βασιλέων καὶ θρόνον δόξης ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ
主除去他的罪，永遠高舉他的角，又賜給他君王的約，和以色列中榮耀的寶座。
The Lord took away his sins, And exalted his horn forever; And gave him a covenant of kings, And a throne of glory in Israel.
47:12
μετὰ τοῦτον ἀνέστη υἱὸς ἐπιστήμων καὶ δῑ αὐτὸν κατέλυσεν ἐν πλατυσμῷ
在他以後，興起一位有見識的兒子；為他的緣故，他得以安享寬廣之地。
After him rose up a son, a man of understanding; And for his sake he lived at large.
47:13
Σαλωμων ἐβασίλευσεν ἐν ἡμέραις εἰρήνης ᾧ ὁ θεὸς κατέπαυσεν κυκλόθεν ἵνα στήσῃ οἶκον ἐπ’ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ καὶ ἑτοιμάσῃ ἁγίασμα εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα
所羅門在太平的日子作王，神使他四境得享安息，好叫他為主的名建造殿宇，預備永遠的聖所。
Solomon reigned in days of peace; And to him God gave rest round about, That he might set up a house for his name, And prepare a sanctuary forever.
47:14
ὡς ἐσοφίσθης ἐν νεότητί σου καὶ ἐνεπλήσθης ὡς ποταμὸς συνέσεως
你年輕時何等有智慧，滿有聰明如同江河！
How wise was you made in your youth, And filled as a river with understanding!
47:15
γῆν ἐπεκάλυψεν ἡ ψυχή σου καὶ ἐνέπλησας ἐν παραβολαῖς αἰνιγμάτων
你的心思遍及全地，你以隱晦的比喻充滿其間。
Your soul covered the earth, And you filled it with dark parables.
47:16
εἰς νήσους πόρρω ἀφίκετο τὸ ὄνομά σου καὶ ἠγαπήθης ἐν τῇ εἰρήνῃ σου
你的名遠達海島，你因你的太平蒙人愛戴。
Your name reached to the aisles afar off; And for your peace you were beloved.
47:17
ἐν ᾠδαῖς καὶ παροιμίαις καὶ παραβολαῖς καὶ ἐν ἑρμηνείαις ἀπεθαύμασάν σε χῶραι
因你的詩歌、箴言、比喻和解釋，列邦都因你驚奇。
For your songs and proverbs and parables, And for your interpretations, the countries marveled at you.
47:18
ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ ἐπικεκλημένου θεοῦ Ισραηλ συνήγαγες ὡς κασσίτερον τὸ χρυσίον καὶ ὡς μόλιβον ἐπλήθυνας ἀργύριον
奉主神的名，就是那稱為以色列之神的，你聚斂金子如同錫，積蓄銀子如同鉛。
By the name of the Lord God, Which is called the God of Israel, You did gather gold as tin, And did multiply silver as lead.
47:19
παρανέκλινας τὰς λαγόνας σου γυναιξὶν καὶ ἐνεξουσιάσθης ἐν τῷ σώματί σου
你卻向婦女屈身放縱情慾，在你的身體上受她們轄制。
You did bow your loins to women, And in your body you were brought into subjection.
47:20
ἔδωκας μῶμον ἐν τῇ δόξῃ σου καὶ ἐβεβήλωσας τὸ σπέρμα σου ἐπαγαγεῖν ὀργὴν ἐπὶ τὰ τέκνα σου καὶ κατανυγῆναι ἐπὶ τῇ ἀφροσύνῃ σου
你使自己的榮耀蒙了瑕疵，玷污了你的後裔，致使忿怒臨到你的兒女，人也因你的愚行而痛心。
You did blemish your honor, And profane your seed, To bring wrath upon your children; And I was grieved for your folly:
47:21
γενέσθαι δίχα τυραννίδα καὶ ἐξ Εφραιμ ἄρξαι βασιλείαν ἀπειθῆ
以致國度一分為二，從以法蓮興起一個悖逆的王國。
So that the sovereignty was divided, And out of Ephraim ruled a disobedient kingdom.
47:22
ὁ δὲ κύριος οὐ μὴ καταλίπῃ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ καὶ οὐ μὴ διαφθείρῃ ἀπὸ τῶν λόγων αὐτοῦ οὐδὲ μὴ ἐξαλείψῃ ἐκλεκτοῦ αὐτοῦ ἔκγονα καὶ σπέρμα τοῦ ἀγαπήσαντος αὐτὸν οὐ μὴ ἐξάρῃ καὶ τῷ Ιακωβ ἔδωκεν κατάλειμμα καὶ τῷ Δαυιδ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ῥίζαν
然而主必不撇棄祂的憐憫，也不毀壞祂的言語，更不塗抹祂所揀選者的後裔，也不剪除愛祂者的子孫；祂給雅各留下餘種，也從中給大衛留下根苗。
But the Lord will never forsake his mercy; And he will not destroy any of his works, Nor blot out the posterity of his elect; And the seed of him that loved him he will not take away; And he gave a remnant to Jacob, And to David a root out of him.
47:23
καὶ ἀνεπαύσατο Σαλωμων μετὰ τῶν πατέρων αὐτοῦ καὶ κατέλιπεν μετ’ αὐτὸν ἐκ τοῦ σπέρματος αὐτοῦ λαοῦ ἀφροσύνην καὶ ἐλασσούμενον συνέσει Ροβοαμ ὃς ἀπέστησεν λαὸν ἐκ βουλῆς αὐτοῦ
所羅門與他列祖同睡了，從他的後裔中留下羅波安接續他，就是百姓中愚昧、缺乏聰明的人，他用自己的計謀使百姓背叛。還有尼八的兒子耶羅波安，使以色列陷在罪裡，又使以法蓮行了犯罪的道路。
And so rested Solomon with his fathers; And of his seed he left behind him Rehoboam, Even the foolishness of the people, and one that lacked understanding, Who made the people to revolt by his counsel. Also Jeroboam the son of Nebat, Who made Israel to sin, And gave to Ephraim a way of sin.
47:24
καὶ Ιεροβοαμ υἱὸς Ναβατ ὃς ἐξήμαρτεν τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ ἔδωκεν τῷ Εφραιμ ὁδὸν ἁμαρτίας καὶ ἐπληθύνθησαν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι αὐτῶν σφόδρα ἀποστῆσαι αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτῶν
他們的罪極其增多，以致他們從本地被遷移出去。
And their sins were multiplied exceedingly, To remove them from their land.
47:25
καὶ πᾶσαν πονηρίαν ἐξεζήτησαν ἕως ἐκδίκησις ἔλθῃ ἐπ’ αὐτούς
因為他們尋求各樣的邪惡，直到報應臨到他們。
For they sought out all manner of wickedness, Till vengeance should come upon them.
