1 Samuel 1 But David said to himself:＂I shall perish some day at the hand of Saul. I have no choice but to escape to the land of the Philistines; then Saul will give up his continual search for me throughout the 达味心里想：＂终有一天我会落在撒乌耳手中，倒不如逃到培肋舍特地方去，使撒乌耳绝望，再不在全以色列境内寻找我，我方能摆脱他的毒手。＂ 2 Accordingly, David departed with his six hundred men and went over to Achish, son of Maoch, king of 达味遂带了他那六百人，动身往加特王玛敖客的儿子阿基士那里去。 3 David and his men lived in 达味和他的两个妻子：依次勒耳人阿希诺罕与曾作加尔默耳人纳巴耳妻子的阿彼盖耳，他的部队，以及他们的眷属，同阿基士一起住在加特。 4 When Saul was told that David had fled to 有人告诉撒乌耳，达味逃到加特去了，撒乌耳就再不去搜寻他。 5 David said to Achish:＂If I meet with your approval, let me have a place to live in one of the country towns. Why should your servant live with you in the royal city?＂ 达味向阿基士说：＂假使我在你眼中获得宠幸，请在乡间城镇里给我一块地方，叫我住在那里；为什么你的仆人要同你一起住在京城内呢？＂ 6 1 That same day Achish gave him Ziklag, which has, therefore, belonged to the kings of 那一天，阿基士就将漆刻拉格赐给他；因此漆刻拉格直到今日还属犹大王。 7 In all, David lived a year and four months in the country of the Philistines. 达味住在培肋舍特人地方，共计一年零四个月。 8 David and his men went up and made raids on the Geshurites, Girzites, and Amalekites-peoples living in the land between Telam, on the approach to Shur, and the 达味带着他的人上去，袭击了革叔尔人、基尔齐人和阿玛肋克人。这些民族所住的地方，是从特郎经叔尔直到埃及地。 9 In attacking the land David would not leave a man or woman alive, but would carry off sheep, oxen, asses, camels, and clothes. On his return he brought these to Achish, 当达味攻击那地方时，没有让那里的男女生存，只把牛、羊、驴、骆驼和衣服抢来，带回交给阿基士。 10 who asked,＂Whom did you raid this time?＂ And David answered,＂The Negeb of Judah,＂ or＂The Negeb of Jerahmeel,＂ or＂The Negeb of the Kenites.＂ 每当阿基士问说：＂今天你们袭击了什么地方？＂时，达味总是答说：＂袭击了犹大的南方，耶辣默耳人的南方，刻尼人的南方。＂ 11 But David would not leave a man or woman alive to be brought to Gath, fearing that they would betray him by saying,＂This is what David did.＂ This was his custom as long as he lived in the country of the Philistines. 达味没有让那里的男女活着带回加特来，因为达味想：＂怕他们对我们作不利的宣传说：达味这样对待了我们。＂这是他住在培肋舍特地方整个时期内的作风。 12 And Achish trusted David, thinking,＂He must certainly be detested by his people Israel. I shall have him as my vassal forever.＂ 阿基士相信了达味，心中想：＂他在自己民族以色列人中，已留下臭名，他要永久作我的奴隶了＂。 Footnotes(注解) 1 [6] Has . . . belonged to the kings of |
