撒母耳记下第4章

《圣经》撒母耳记下-第4章

撒下4:1 扫罗的儿子伊施波设听见押尼珥死在希伯仑，手就发软；以色列众人也都惊惶。 (串)拉4:4赛13:7耶6:24;38:4结21:7

†[吕]扫罗的儿子伊施波设听见押尼珥死在希伯崙，他的手就发软；以色列众人也都惊惶。

†[思]撒乌耳的儿子依市巴耳，一听见阿贝乃尔死在赫贝龙，就慌了手脚，全以色列大惊。

†[当代]扫罗的儿子伊施波设听到押尼珥在希伯仑遇刺身亡，就吓得心惊意乱，整个以色列都震惊不已。

†[新译]扫罗的儿子伊施波设听见押尼珥在希伯仑死了，就怕得手都发软，以色列众人也都惊惶失措。

†[Wlb]扫罗子伊施波设闻押尼珥死于希伯仑、则丧胆、以色列众亦悚惶、

†[Xdv]扫罗的儿子伊施波设听见押尼珥在希伯仑被杀，就很害怕；所有以色列人民也都恐慌起来。

†[Kjv]And when Saul's son heard that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands were feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.

†[Nkjv]When Saul's son heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost heart, and all Israel was troubled.

†[BBE]And when Saul's son Ish-bosheth had news that Abner was dead in Hebron, his hands became feeble, and all the Israelites were troubled.

†[GNT] When Saul's son Ishbosheth heard that Abner had been killed in Hebron, he was afraid, and all the people of Israel were alarmed.

†[NIV]When Ish-Bosheth son of Saul heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost courage, and all Israel became alarmed.

本会注释　　手就发软。押尼珥一死，伊施波设的力量就没有了。王知道他的事业注定失败。以色列人也都惊惶，因为押尼珥一直是掌握实权的人。他们明白除掉伊施波设、由大卫来接管国家只是时间问题了。

撒下4:2 扫罗的儿子伊施波设有两个军长，一名巴拿，一名利甲，是便雅悯支派、比录人临门的儿子。比录也属便雅悯。 (串)书18:25撒下23:37

†[吕]扫罗的儿子有两个人做了游击队长，一个名叫巴拿，一个名叫利甲，都是便雅悯子孙比录人临门所生的：因为比录也算是属于便雅悯。

†[思]撒乌耳的儿子依市巴耳有两个土匪头目：一个名叫巴阿纳，一个名叫勒加布，是本雅明子孙贝洛特人黎孟的儿子，──贝洛特被认为是本雅明族，

†[当代]以色列领导军队的权力从此落在巴拿和利甲兄弟两人的手中。他们是便雅悯族人，来自便雅悯的比录一个叫临门的人的儿子。比录的人民也算是便雅悯的族人，只是他们自从逃到基他音以后，就一直住在那里了。

†[新译]扫罗的儿子伊施波设有两个统率突击队的将领，一个名叫巴拿，一个名叫利甲，他们是便雅悯支派比录人临门的儿子。（比录也算是便雅悯的一部分。

†[Wlb]扫罗子有队长二人、一名巴拿、一名利甲、皆便雅悯族、比录人临门子也、盖比录属便雅悯、

†[Xdv]伊施波设有两个军长──巴拿和利甲；他们是便雅悯支族比录人临门的儿子。（比录是便雅悯的一个地区。

†[Kjv]And Saul's son had two men that were captains of bands: the name of the one was Baanah, and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon a Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin: (for Beeroth also was reckoned to Benjamin.

†[Nkjv]Now Saul's son had two men who were captains of troops. The name of one was Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin. (For Beeroth also was part of Benjamin,

†[BBE]And Saul's son had two men, captains of bands, one named Baanah and the other Rechab, sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the tribe of Benjamin; (for Beeroth was at one time taken to be part of Benjamin:

†[GNT] Ishbosheth had two officers who were leaders of raiding parties, Baanah and Rechab, sons of Rimmon, from Beeroth in the tribe of Benjamin. (Beeroth is counted as part of Benjamin.

†[NIV]Now Saul's son had two men who were leaders of raiding bands. One was named Baanah and the other Recab; they were sons of Rimmon the Beerothite from the tribe of Benjamin-Beeroth is considered part of Benjamin,

本会注释　　军。gedudim，“抢劫队”（见@撒下3:22@注释）。
　　比录人。比录是基遍的一座城（书9:17），分配给便雅悯支派（书18:25）。一般认为在el-Bīreh附近，在耶路撒冷以北约16公里。

撒下4:3 比录人早先逃到基他音，在那里寄居，直到今日。 (串)撒上31:7|尼11:33

†[吕]比录人早先逃到基他音，就一直在那里寄居、直到今日。

†[思]因为贝洛特人逃到了基塔殷，侨居在那，直到今日。

†[当代]－

†[新译]比录人原先逃到基他音，就在那里寄居，直到今日。）

†[Wlb]昔比录人遁于基他音、至今仍旅于彼、

†[Xdv]原先住在比录的人已经逃到基他音去；他们从那时候起一直寄居在基他音。）

†[Kjv]And the Beerothites fled to Gittaim, and were sojourners there until this day.)

†[Nkjv]because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have been sojourners there until this day.)

†[BBE]But the people of Beeroth had gone in flight to Gittaim, where they have been living to this day.)

†[GNT] Its original inhabitants had fled to Gittaim, where they have lived ever since.)

†[NIV]because the people of Beeroth fled to Gittaim and have lived there as aliens to this day.

本会注释　　基他音。直译是“两个迦特”或“两个酒榨”。基他音的确切地点不详。便雅悯人被掳到巴比伦归来之后住在这座城里（尼11:33）。比录人逃走可能发生在扫罗残酷攻击基遍人的时候（撒下21:1,2）。若是这样，基他音可能在扫罗统治的地区之外。

撒下4:4 扫罗的儿子约拿单有一个儿子名叫米非波设，是瘸腿的。扫罗和约拿单死亡的消息从耶斯列传到的时候，他才五岁。他乳母抱着他逃跑；因为跑得太急，孩子掉在地上，腿就瘸了。 (串)撒下9:6|撒下9:3|撒上29:1,11

†[吕]扫罗的儿子约拿单有一个儿子、两脚残废；当扫罗和约拿单的消息从耶斯列传到的时候、他才五岁；他乳母抱起他来逃跑，因为慌慌张张逃跑，孩子掉下来，腿就瘸了：他的名字叫米非波设。

†[思]撒乌耳的儿子约纳堂有个儿子双足跛了，当撒乌耳与约纳堂的凶信由依次勒耳传来时，他只有五岁，他的乳母带他逃跑，在慌张逃跑中，他跌瘸了腿；他名叫默黎巴耳。

†[当代]扫罗有一个孙子，是约拿单的儿子，名叫米非波设。扫罗和约拿单在耶斯列阵亡的时候，他才五岁。当时噩耗传来，乳娘就抱著他仓皇逃命，一个不小心就把他摔在地上，他便因此成了跛子。

†[新译]扫罗的儿子约拿单有一个儿子，双腿都跛了。扫罗和约拿单死亡的消息从耶斯列传到的时候，他才五岁。他的乳母抱着他逃跑。乳母在慌忙中逃跑，孩子掉了下来，腿就瘸了。他的名字叫米非波设。

†[Wlb]扫罗子约拿单有一子名米非波设、跛者也、昔扫罗及约拿单之音耗、自耶斯列传至时、子方五岁、媪抱之而遁、疾趋、子坠致跛、

†[Xdv]扫罗的另一个后代是乔纳单的儿子米非波设。扫罗和乔纳单被杀的时候，他刚五岁。当他们的死讯从耶斯列传来，他的奶妈抱着他逃跑；在慌忙中，奶妈不小心把他跌在地上，从此他成为跛腿的。

†[Kjv]And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became l

†[Nkjv]Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel; and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened, as she made haste to flee, that he fell and became lame. His name

†[BBE]Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son whose feet were damaged. He was five years old when news of the death of Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel, and the woman who took care of him took him up and went in flight: and while she was getting him away as quic

†[GNT] Another descendant of Saul was Jonathan's son Mephibosheth, who was five years old when Saul and Jonathan were killed. When the news about their death came from the city of Jezreel, his nurse picked him up and fled; but she was in such a hurry that she d

†[NIV]Jonathan son of Saul had a son who was lame in both feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled, but as she hurried to leave, he fell and became crippled. His name was Mephibosheth.

本会注释　　有一个儿子是瘸腿的。叙述到这里似乎中断了。介绍约拿单儿子的这件事，是要说明扫罗家当时因伊施波设的死几乎灭绝了。约拿单的儿子似乎是唯一王位的继承人。

撒下4:5 一日，比录人临门的两个儿子利甲和巴拿出去，约在午热的时候到了伊施波设的家；伊施波设正睡午觉。

†[吕]比录人临门的儿子利甲和巴拿出来，约在日中炎热的时候到了伊施波设的家；伊施波设正睡午觉。

†[思]贝洛特人黎孟的儿子勒加布和巴阿纳出去，正当中午炎热的时候，到了依市巴耳家，他正在床上睡午觉。

†[当代]有一天，伊施波设王正在午睡的时候，比录人临门的两个儿子利甲和比拿来到伊施波设的宫中。

†[新译]比录人临门的儿子利甲和巴拿出去，约在正午炎热的时候，来到了伊施波设的家。伊施波设正在睡午觉。

†[Wlb]一日比录人临门子利甲巴拿、于炎热时、至伊施波设家、值其午寝、

†[Xdv]利甲和巴拿到伊施波设住的地方去，到达那里的时候正是炎热的中午，伊施波设在睡午觉。

†[Kjv]And the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, went, and came about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who lay on a bed at noon.

†[Nkjv]Then the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, set out and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who was lying on his bed at noon.

†[BBE]And Rechab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, went out and came to the house of Ish-bosheth in the heat of the day, when he was resting in the middle of the day. Now the woman who kept the door was cleaning grain, and sleep overcame her.

†[GNT] Rechab and Baanah set out for Ishbosheth's house and arrived there about noon, while he was taking his midday rest.

†[NIV]Now Recab and Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, set out for the house of Ish-Bosheth, and they arrived there in the heat of the day while he was taking his noonday rest.

本会注释　　午觉。他正在午休。许多东方国家有午休的习惯。

撒下4:6 他们进了房子，假作要取麦子，就刺透伊施波设的肚腹，逃跑了。 (串)撒下2:23

†[吕]那家守门的女人正在簸麦子，竟打盹睡着（传统：看哪，他们进到屋中，假作要取麦子，就刺透伊施波设的五脏）；利甲和他兄弟巴拿就溜进去。

†[思]看门的女仆在筛麦子，也打盹睡着了。此时勒加布和他兄弟巴阿纳溜进去，

†[当代]他们装作是来取麦子的人，偷偷溜进了王的寝室，刺穿了他的肚腹，还割下他的首级。他们拿著他的头颅穿过荒野，星夜逃亡。

†[新译]他们进了屋里，假装要拿麦子，就刺透伊施波设的肚腹，然后利甲和他的兄弟巴拿都逃脱了。

†[Wlb]入室、佯欲取麦、

†[Xdv]守门的妇人因筛麦子累了，竟打起瞌睡来。利甲跟巴拿溜了进去（希伯来文是：他们带麦子进了卧房，刺透他的肚子；利甲和他的兄弟巴拿就逃走了）。

†[Kjv]And they came thither into the midst of the house, as though they would have fetched wheat; and they smote him under the fifth rib: and Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.

†[Nkjv]And they came there, all the way into the house, as though to get wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.

†[BBE]And Rechab and his brother Baanah got in without being seen.

†[GNT] The woman at the door had become drowsy while she was sifting wheat and had fallen asleep, so Rechab and Baanah slipped in.

†[NIV]They went into the inner part of the house as if to get some wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Recab and his brother Baanah slipped away.

本会注释　　取麦子。这句话各种版本有不同的译法。七十士译本为：“看那，这家的（女）守门人扬净了麦子，打盹睡着了。”拉丁文武加大译本也说过失在守门的妇人。亚兰文译本没有提麦子。

撒下4:7 他们进房子的时候，伊施波设正在卧房里躺在床上，他们将他杀死，割了他的首级，拿着首级在亚拉巴走了一夜， (串)申1:1撒下2:29

†[吕]他们进屋子的时候，伊施波设正在卧房里躺在床上；他们把他一刺，便杀死他，割了他的头，拿着那头，走了亚拉巴的路、走一整夜，

†[思]到了屋内，见依市巴耳正睡在卧室的床上，便将他打死，砍下他的头，带着头，在阿辣巴的大路上走了一夜。

†[当代]－

†[新译]他们进屋子的时候，伊施波设正在自己的卧室里躺在床上，他们刺透他，把他杀死，然后割下他的头，拿着头颅在亚拉巴的路上走了一夜，

†[Wlb]见伊施波设偃卧于床、则刺其腹而杀之、斩其首、取之而去、由亚拉巴道、终夜而行、

†[Xdv]他们进去以后，就到伊施波设的卧房，伊施波设睡得正熟，他们把他杀了，然后割下他的头，带着走一夜的路，过了约旦谷。

†[Kjv]For when they came into the house, he lay on his bed in his bedchamber, and they smote him, and slew him, and beheaded him, and took his head, and gat them away through the plain all night.

†[Nkjv]For when they came into the house, he was lying on his bed in his bedroom; then they struck him and killed him, beheaded him and took his head, and were all night escaping through the plain.

†[BBE]And when they came into the house, Ish-bosheth was stretched on his bed in his bedroom; and they made an attack on him and put him to death, and, cutting off his head, they took it with them and went by the road through the Arabah all night.

†[GNT] Once inside, they went to Ishbosheth's bedroom, where he was sound asleep, and killed him. Then they cut off his head, took it with them, and walked all night through the Jordan Valley.

†[NIV]They had gone into the house while he was lying on the bed in his bedroom. After they stabbed and killed him, they cut off his head. Taking it with them, they traveled all night by way of the Arabah.

本会注释　　拿着首级。他们的目的是把首级带给大卫，作为伊施波设已死的确据。伊施波设是在中午被杀的（5节），所以刺客们必是在白天把他的首级带走。要是他们这样携带的话，首级可能装在一个麦袋里（见6节）。
　　在亚拉巴。即经过平原，或约旦河流域。

撒下4:8 将伊施波设的首级拿到希伯仑见大卫王，说：“王的仇敌扫罗曾寻索王的性命。看哪，这是他儿子伊施波设的首级；耶和华今日为我主我王在扫罗和他后裔的身上报了仇。” (串)撒上23:15

†[吕]将伊施波设的头带到希伯崙去见大卫，对王说：“看哪，这寻索你性命的、你的仇敌扫罗的儿子伊施波设的首级在这里呢；永恒主今日为我主我王在扫罗和他后裔身上报了仇了。”

†[思]他们带着依市巴耳的头，到了赫贝龙见达味王说：“大王的仇人撒乌耳常谋害你的性命；看，他儿子依市巴耳的头；上主今天为我主向撒乌耳和他的后代报了仇。”

†[当代]他们把伊施波设的首级带到希伯仑，献给大卫王，说：“这便是伊施波设的首级，他父亲扫罗屡次想要杀害你，今天主为你惩罚了扫罗和他的子孙了。”

†[新译]把伊施波设的头带到希伯仑去见大卫，对王说：“你的仇敌扫罗过去常常寻索你的命。看哪！这是他儿子伊施波设的头。今天耶和华在扫罗和他后裔的身上为我主我王报了仇了。”

†[Wlb]携伊施波设之首、至希伯仑、见大卫王曰、尔敌扫罗索尔命、试观其子伊施波设之首在此、今日耶和华报我主我王之仇于扫罗、及其后裔、

†[Xdv]他们把首级带到希伯仑献给大卫王，对他说：“这是你的仇敌扫罗的儿子伊施波设的头。扫罗一直想杀陛下，今天上主在扫罗和他后代身上为陛下报了仇。”

†[Kjv]And they brought the head of Ishbosheth unto David to Hebron, and said to the king, Behold the head of Ishbosheth the son of Saul thine enemy, which sought thy life; and the LORD hath avenged my lord the king this day of Saul, and of his seed.

†[Nkjv]And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David at Hebron, and said to the king, "Here is the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul your enemy, who sought your life; and the LORD has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and his descendants."

†[BBE]And they took the head of Ish-bosheth to David in Hebron, and said to the king, Here is the head of Ish-bosheth, the son of Saul your hater, who would have taken your life; the Lord has taken payment for the wrongs of my lord the king from Saul and his se

†[GNT] They presented the head to King David at Hebron and said to him, "Here is the head of Ishbosheth, the son of your enemy Saul, who tried to kill you. Today the Lord has allowed Your Majesty to take revenge on Saul and his descendants."

†[NIV]They brought the head of Ish-Bosheth to David at Hebron and said to the king, "Here is the head of Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, your enemy, who tried to take your life. This day the Lord has avenged my lord the king against Saul and his offspring."

本会注释　　曾寻索王的性命。这两个军长可能在扫罗搜索大卫的部队中扮演了积极的角色。他们可能认为大卫对扫罗和扫罗的家怀有敌意与憎恨，就象扫罗对待大卫那样。憎恨通常会招惹憎恨；苦毒常常会遭遇苦毒。
　　耶和华……报了仇。尊荣上帝和维护神圣的事业不是这两个刺客的动机。他们刺杀伊施波设是为谋取自己的私利，并不是为大卫的益处。他们说的话是想让大卫感激他们，从而获得优厚的奖赏。这两个人犯的罪应受到惩罚而不是奖赏。

撒下4:9 大卫对比录人临门的儿子利甲和他兄弟巴拿说：“我指着救我性命脱离一切苦难、永生的耶和华起誓： (串)王上1:29|得3:13

†[吕]但是大卫却回答比录人临门的儿子利甲和他兄弟巴拿说：“我指着那赎我性命脱离一切患难的永活永恒主来起誓：

†[思]但是，达味答覆贝洛特人黎孟的儿子勒加布和他兄弟巴阿纳说：“我指着那救我脱离了一切患难的永生上主起誓：

†[当代]可是大卫却回答说：“我指著救我脱离一切仇敌的主起誓，

†[新译]大卫回答比录人临门的儿子利甲和他的兄弟巴拿，说：“我指着那曾救赎我的命脱离一切患难的永活的耶和华起誓：

†[Wlb]大卫谓之曰、我指赎我命脱诸难、维生之耶和华以誓、

†[Xdv]大卫回答他们：“我指着那救我脱离一切危险的永生上主发誓；

†[Kjv]And David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said unto them, As the LORD liveth, who hath redeemed my soul out of all adversity,

†[Nkjv]But David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, "As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all adversity,

†[BBE]And David made answer to Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, By the living Lord, who has kept me safe from all my trouble,

†[GNT] David answered them, "I take a vow by the living Lord, who has saved me from all dangers!

†[NIV]David answered Recab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, "As surely as the Lord lives, who has delivered me out of all trouble,

本会注释　　救我性命。大卫十分熟悉上帝和祂公义正直的道路。耶和华曾屡次介入拯救了大卫的性命，挫败他的仇敌。大卫乐于把复仇留给耶和华（申32:35；参罗12:19；来10:30）。他不需要人的罪行帮助他脱离困难。

撒下4:10 从前有人报告我说，扫罗死了，他自以为报好消息；我就拿住他，将他杀在洗革拉，这就作了他报消息的赏赐。 (串)撒下1:4|撒下1:15

†[吕]从前有人向我报信说：‘看哪，扫罗死了’，自以为他是个传好消息的；我就抓住他，将他杀在洗革拉；这就是我给他做传消息的报偿。

†[思]那告诉我说：撒乌耳死了的，自以为是报喜信，我却拿住他，在漆刻拉格杀了，作为他报信的赏报；

†[当代]以前有人向我报信，说扫罗死了，他以为是来报喜讯，谁料我在洗革拉马上就把他杀了，那就是他的报酬了！

†[新译]从前有人向我报信说：‘看哪！扫罗死了。’他自以为是报好消息，我却抓住他，把他杀在洗革拉，这就是我给他作报好消息的酬报。

†[Wlb]昔有人告我曰、扫罗已死、以为报嘉音、我执而戮之于洗革拉、此我为其报信音所加之赏也、

†[Xdv]在洗革拉向我报扫罗死讯的人以为他带来了喜讯！我抓住他，把他杀了。那就是他报信所得的酬报！

†[Kjv]When one told me, saying, Behold, Saul is dead, thinking to have brought good tidings, I took hold of him, and slew him in Ziklag, who thought that I would have given him a reward for his tidings:

†[Nkjv]when someone told me, saying, "Look, Saul is dead,' thinking to have brought good news, I arrested him and had him executed in Ziklag--the one who thought I would give him a reward for his news.

†[BBE]When one came to me with the news of Saul's death, in the belief that it would be good news, I took him and put him to death in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news:

†[GNT] The messenger who came to me at Ziklag and told me of Saul's death thought he was bringing good news. I seized him and had him put to death. That was the reward I gave him for his good news!

†[NIV]when a man told me, 'Saul is dead,' and thought he was bringing good news, I seized him and put him to death in Ziklag. That was the reward I gave him for his news!

本会注释　　将他杀在。参撒下1:2-16。

撒下4:11 何况恶人将义人杀在他的床上，我岂不向你们讨流他血的罪、从世上除灭你们呢？” (串)创9:5,6

†[吕]何况恶人在义人家里将他杀在床上，我现在哪有不从你们手里讨流他血的罪，而将你们从地上肃清呢？”

†[思]那么，现在这些匪徒，偷进人屋，杀了睡在床上的义人，我岂不更该从你们手中追讨他的血债，将你们由地上铲除？”

†[当代]现在，你们这些凶徒却乘著这个无辜的人在床上睡觉的时候，把他杀掉，你们这种恶人不是更该死吗？我还能让你们留在世上吗？”

†[新译]何况恶人在义人的家里，把义人杀在床上。现在我怎能不从你们手中追讨流他血的罪，把你们从这世上除灭呢？”

†[Wlb]况恶人入义者之室、杀之于床、我岂不讨其血于尔、绝尔于地乎、

†[Xdv]恶人谋害无辜的人，趁着他熟睡，在他自己的家里把他杀死；这更是罪大恶极。现在我要因你们谋杀了他而报复你们，从地上把你们除灭！”

†[Kjv]How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house upon his bed? shall I not therefore now require his blood of your hand, and take you away from the earth?

†[Nkjv]How much more, when wicked men have killed a righteous person in his own house on his bed? Therefore, shall I not now require his blood at your hand and remove you from the earth?"

†[BBE]How much more, when evil men have put an upright person to death, in his house, sleeping on his bed, will I take payment from you for his blood, and have you cut off from the earth?

†[GNT] How much worse it will be for evil men who murder an innocent man asleep in his own house! I will now take revenge on you for murdering him and will wipe you off the face of the earth!"

†[NIV]How much more-when wicked men have killed an innocent man in his own house and on his own bed-should I not now demand his blood from your hand and rid the earth of you!"

本会注释　　义人。这句话不是对伊施波设道德品质的全面评价，只是说这个王的品格没有犯该死的罪。
　　讨流他血的罪。大卫对凶手们提一个问题。他把事实的真相摆在他们面前，让他们自己判断他的决定是对还是错。问题只有一个答案，就连被定罪的人也是这样回答的。公义要求执行死刑。被告没有什么话可以辩护的。
　　许多人处在大卫位置，却不象大卫这样思路清楚判断明智。他们可能认为这两个刺客是真正的爱国者是，可敬的公民和朋友。他们把谋杀解释为正义和必要之举，是为了国家的最高利益。凶手自己也希望这样解释他们的行为。但是大卫看透了外表的伪装，准确地探知他们自私邪恶的动机。既然谋杀符合他们个人的利益，他们就毫不犹豫地去做了。他们假装是大卫的朋友，但是通过背叛他们所侍奉的人，他们证明自己不配做以色列国的公民。只要形势的变化使大卫处于不利的情形，他们就会毫不犹豫地杀死他就象杀死伊施波设一样。这种人是靠不住的。他们不配活着。他们默不作声，就是向国民宣布，他们认为对自己的判决是公正的。
　　除灭你们。ba`ar这里指除去罪恶（申19:13,19等）。凶手的罪行污秽了大地，只有通过流他们血才能补偿，因他们流了无辜之人的血（民35:33）。

撒下4:12 于是大卫吩咐少年人将他们杀了，砍断他们的手脚，挂在希伯仑的池旁，却将伊施波设的首级葬在希伯仑押尼珥的坟墓里。 (串)撒下3:32

†[吕]于是大卫吩咐青年僮仆将他们杀掉，砍断他们的手和脚，挂在希伯崙池旁边；却将伊施波设的头埋葬在希伯崙押尼珥的坟墓里。

†[思]达味遂命自己的僮仆，杀了他们，砍去他们的手足，挂在赫贝龙的池旁；至于依市巴耳的头，叫人拿去葬在赫贝龙，阿贝乃尔的坟墓内。

†[当代]于是，大卫命令卫兵把他们杀了，把手脚都斩断，尸身挂在希伯仑的池旁。他们又把伊施波设的头颅葬在希伯仑押尼珥的坟墓里。

†[新译]于是，大卫吩咐年轻人把他们杀了，并且砍断他们的手脚，把身体挂在希伯仑的水池旁边；却把伊施波设的头拿去，埋葬在希伯仑押尼珥的坟墓里。

†[Wlb]遂命少者戮之、断其手足、悬于希伯仑池侧、取伊施波设首、葬于希伯仑押尼珥之墓、

†[Xdv]大卫命令左右侍从把利甲和巴拿杀了，并砍断他们的手脚，挂在希伯仑的池旁，然后把伊施波设的头葬在希伯仑，在押尼珥的坟墓里。
