列王纪上第17章

《圣经》列王纪上-第17章

王上17:1 基列寄居的提斯比人以利亚对亚哈说：“我指着所事奉永生耶和华以色列的上帝起誓，这几年我若不祷告，必不降露，不下雨。” (串)士12:4|得3:13王上18:10,15;22:14王下3:14;5:16|雅5:17王上18:1路4:25

†[吕]基列的提斯比（原文：基列的寄住者之中）有一位提斯比人以利亚对亚哈说：“我指着以色列的上帝、我侍立在他面前永活的永恒主来起誓；这几年除非凭我说话，天必不降露或下雨。”

†[思]基肋阿得提市贝出身的提市贝人厄里亚对阿哈布说：“我指着我所服侍的永生上主、以色列的天主起誓：这几年如果没有我的命令，天决不降露或落雨！”

†[当代]有一位先知，名叫以利亚，他是基列的提斯比人，他对亚哈王说：“我奉永生的主、以色列的上帝的名警告你：在以后几年之中，倘若我不祷告祈求主，雨水就必不降在地上。”

†[新译]提斯比人以利亚，就是从基列的提斯比来的先知，对亚哈说：“我指着我所事奉永活的耶和华以色列的　神起誓，这几年若是没有我的命令，天必不降露，也不下雨。”

†[Wlb]旅于基列之提斯比人以利亚、告亚哈曰、我指所事维生之耶和华、以色列之上帝而誓、此数年间、非我有言、则雨露不降、

†[Xdv]有一个先知叫伊莱贾，是基列的提斯比人。他对亚哈王说：“我指着我所尊崇的上主──以色列上帝的永生发誓：以后的两三年内，除非我求天下雨，天不下雨，也不降露。”

†[Kjv]And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.

†[Nkjv]And Elijah the Tishbite, of the inhabitants of Gilead, said to Ahab, "As the LORD God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, except at my word."

†[BBE]And Elijah the Tishbite, of Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, By the living Lord, the God of Israel, whose servant I am, there will be no dew or rain in these years, but only at my word.

†[GNT] A prophet named Elijah, from Tishbe in Gilead, said to King Ahab, "In the name of the Lord, the living God of Israel, whom I serve, I tell you that there will be no dew or rain for the next two or three years until I say so."

†[NIV]Now Elijah the Tishbite, from Tishbe in Gilead, said to Ahab, "As the Lord , the God of Israel, lives, whom I serve, there will be neither dew nor rain in the next few years except at my word."

本会注释　　基列。以利亚的家在约旦河东的基列。他故乡的具体位置不详。
　　以利亚。《列王纪》在这里开始了一个新的篇章，与以前的风格迥然不同。不再叙述一些君主邪恶统治冷冰冰的史实，而代之以最伟大先知激动人心的事迹记录。这些故事既详细又生动，饱含着属灵的优美和道德的教训。以利亚带着上帝的使命走上历史舞台，那时正值危急的关头。罪恶的洪流扫荡全地，如果不加遏止，将陷众民于灭顶之灾。以利亚勇敢地站立在仇敌面前，以言语和行为为上帝作见证。他或过着简朴的隐居生活，或无畏地站在迦密山顶让火从天上降下来并挥起正义之剑杀了巴力的众先知。在这引人入胜的故事里我们看到了为上帝服务的勇气，信心，忠贞，仁爱和热忱，在这里我们看到了那要来的更大的以利亚（太17:10-12）。以利亚这个名字和先知的使命很相称，它的意思是“耶和华是我的上帝。
　　对亚哈说。以利亚的故事突然插了近来。没有介绍，没有讲述先知的蒙召，也没有记录他早年的经历。只是提到他的名字和他住在基列，然后就说他站在王的面前，宣布将要来临之刑罚的严肃信息。在基列山的荒僻之处，以利亚的心被那扫荡全地日甚一日的背道狂澜所震撼。他的心灵伤痛，他的义愤激发，他恳切地祷告阻止这罪恶的潮流，如果必要，不妨降罚给人民，使他们看到自己信靠巴力的虚妄。他的祷告蒙垂听了，以利亚奉差遣去向王宣告那要来之刑罚的惊人信息（见《先知与君王》119,120页）。
　　不降露，不下雨。巴力被人崇拜为一切生命和福气的来源，它被尊为暴风雨之神，给大地带来雨露，使田间的植物生长。现在以色列人就要知道巴力究竟能不能带来这些福惠。

王上17:2 耶和华的话临到以利亚说：

†[吕]耶和华的话传与以利亚说：

†[思]有上主的话於厄里亚说：

†[当代]主又对以利亚说：“你离开这里，往东面去，走到约旦河以东的基立溪那里躲起来吧，

†[新译]耶和华的话临到以利亚说：

†[Wlb]耶和华谕以利亚曰、

†[Xdv]上主对伊莱贾说：

†[Kjv]And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

†[Nkjv]Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

†[BBE]Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying,

†[GNT] Then the Lord said to Elijah,

†[NIV]Then the word of the Lord came to Elijah:

王上17:3 “你离开这里往东去，藏在约但河东边的基立溪旁。

†[吕]“你离开这里，转而向东，去藏在约但河东面的基立溪谷中。

†[思]“你离开这里，转向东方，隐居在约但河东的革黎特小河旁。

†[当代]－

†[新译]“你离开这里，向东方去，躲藏在约旦河东面的基立溪旁。

†[Wlb]去此东往、匿于约但东之基立溪滨、

†[Xdv]“你离开这里，往东走，到约旦河东边的基立溪附近藏起来。

†[Kjv]Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

†[Nkjv]"Get away from here and turn eastward, and hide by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.

†[BBE]Go from here in the direction of the east, and keep yourself in a secret place by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.

†[GNT] "Leave this place and go east and hide yourself near Cherith Brook, east of the Jordan.

†[NIV]Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan.

本会注释　　你离开这里。没有时间可供耽延了，在王清醒过来，将先知拿住处死之前，他就逃跑了。耶和华指示他到约旦河谷的基立溪旁。具体位置不详，可能在一处清静的山谷，远离喧嚣的尘世。

王上17:4 你要喝那溪里的水，我已吩咐乌鸦在那里供养你。”

†[吕]你要喝那溪谷里的水；我已吩咐乌鸦在那里供养你。”

†[思]你要喝那小河里的水，我已经吩咐乌鸦在那里供给你食物。”

†[当代]你可以喝基立溪的水，我已经吩咐乌鸦供应你的食物了。”

†[新译]你要喝那溪里的水，我已经吩咐乌鸦在那里供养你。”

†[Wlb]可饮溪水、我命乌食尔、

†[Xdv]你可以喝溪里的水；我已经命令乌鸦送食物到那里给你吃。”

†[Kjv]And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.

†[Nkjv]And it will be that you shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there."

†[BBE]The water of the stream will be your drink, and by my orders the ravens will give you food there.

†[GNT] The brook will supply you with water to drink, and I have commanded ravens to bring you food there."

†[NIV]You will drink from the brook, and I have ordered the ravens to feed you there."

本会注释　　乌鸦。这是一个奇怪的世代，人心极其刚硬。如果人行走善道，上帝必非常神奇地彰显自己。尽管干旱的时间很长，但上帝能用各种手段照顾自己忠心的仆人，为要让全国的人明白，惟有祂是上帝。

王上17:5 于是以利亚照着耶和华的话，去住在约但河东的基立溪旁。

†[吕]以利亚就去，照永恒主的话而行；他去住在约但河东面的基立溪谷中。

†[思]厄里亚就依照上主的话去做，去住在约但河东的革黎特小河旁。

†[当代]于是，以利亚就遵从主的话，住在约旦河东的基立溪旁。

†[新译]于是以利亚去了，照着耶和华的话行了；他去住在约旦河东面的基立溪旁。

†[Wlb]遂遵耶和华命、往约但东之基立溪滨居焉、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾听从上主的命令去住在基立溪旁。

†[Kjv]So he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.

†[Nkjv]So he went and did according to the word of the LORD, for he went and stayed by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan.

†[BBE]So he went and did as the Lord said, living by the stream Cherith, east of Jordan.

†[GNT] Elijah obeyed the Lord's command, and went and stayed by Cherith Brook.

†[NIV]So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there.

王上17:6 乌鸦早晚给他叼饼和肉来，他也喝那溪里的水。

†[吕]乌鸦早晨给他叼饼和肉来，晚上也叼饼和肉来；他喝的就是那溪谷里的水。

†[思]乌鸦早晨给他送饼和肉来，晚上也给他送饼和肉来；渴了，就喝那小河里的水。

†[当代]乌鸦每天早晚都给他叼来肉和饼，他又饮用溪水。

†[新译]乌鸦早晨给他送饼和肉来，晚上也送饼和肉来，他也喝那溪里的水。

†[Wlb]乌朝夕以饼与肉给之、所饮者、此溪之水、

†[Xdv]他喝溪里的水；乌鸦每天早晨和傍晚都送饼和肉来给他。

†[Kjv]And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook.

†[Nkjv]The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening; and he drank from the brook.

†[BBE]And the ravens took him bread in the morning and meat in the evening; and the water of the stream was his drink.

†[GNT] He drank water from the brook, and ravens brought him bread and meat every morning and every evening.

†[NIV]The ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank from the brook.

王上17:7 过了些日子，溪水就干了，因为雨没有下在地上。

†[吕]过了相当的日子、溪谷乾了；因为那地方没有下雨。

†[思]不几天以後，那地方没有落雨，小河也乾涸了。

†[当代]可是，过了一段日子，因为天不下雨，溪水也就枯干了。

†[新译]过了一些日子，那溪就干了，因为没有雨下在地上。

†[Wlb]日久无雨降于其地、溪水尽涸、

†[Xdv]过了一些时候，因为天不下雨，溪里的水都干了。

†[Kjv]And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.

†[Nkjv]And it happened after a while that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land.

†[BBE]Now after a time the stream became dry, because there was no rain in the land.

†[GNT] After a while the brook dried up because of the lack of rain.

†[NIV]Some time later the brook dried up because there had been no rain in the land.

本会注释　　以利亚对王说的话迅速应验了。他的话一出口，天就闭塞不下雨，全地变得干枯荒凉。王和民众都不相信这旱灾是上帝的惩罚。他们坚持认为巴力和亚斯他录会给他们带来维持生命的雨水。之后连基立溪也干涸了。

王上17:8 耶和华的话临到他说：

†[吕]永恒主的话传与他、说：

†[思]有上主的话传於厄里亚说：

†[当代]主又对他说：“你到西顿的撒勒法去吧，我已经吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。”

†[新译]耶和华的话又临到以利亚说：

†[Wlb]耶和华谕以利亚曰、

†[Xdv]于是，上主对伊莱贾说：

†[Kjv]And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying,

†[Nkjv]Then the word of the LORD came to him, saying,

†[BBE]Then the word of the Lord came to him, saying,

†[GNT] Then the Lord said to Elijah,

†[NIV]Then the word of the Lord came to him:

王上17:9 “你起身往西顿的撒勒法（撒勒法与路加福音四章二十六节同）去，住在那里；我已吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。” (串)俄1:20路4:26

†[吕]“你起身、往西顿的撒勒法去，住在那里；你就看吧，我吩咐了那里一个寡妇来供养你。”

†[思]“你起身往漆冬匝尔法特去，住在那里；我已吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。”

†[当代]－

†[新译]“你起来，往西顿的撒勒法去，住在那里；我已经吩咐那里的一个寡妇供养你。”

†[Wlb]起往西顿之撒勒法、而居于彼、我已命在彼之嫠妇供养尔、

†[Xdv]“你到西顿附近的撒勒法去，住在那里。我已经吩咐住在那里的一个寡妇供养你。”

†[Kjv]Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.

†[Nkjv]"Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. See, I have commanded a widow there to provide for you."

†[BBE]Up! go now to Zarephath, in Zidon, and make your living-place there; I have given orders to a widow woman there to see that you have food.

†[GNT] "Now go to the town of Zarephath, near Sidon, and stay there. I have commanded a widow who lives there to feed you."

†[NIV]Go at once to Zarephath of Sidon and stay there. I have commanded a widow in that place to supply you with food."

本会注释　　撒勒法。腓尼基的一座边境城市，位于西顿西南偏南14.4公里，在推罗东北偏北21.6公里。这里是崇拜巴力的王统治的中心地带，以利亚奉命来到这里受一个外邦寡妇的供养。亚哈一定想不到他居然会在此处藏身。撒勒法是个很小的村庄，就是现在的Sarafand。

王上17:10 以利亚就起身往撒勒法去。到了城门，见有一个寡妇在那里捡柴，以利亚呼叫她说：“求你用器皿取点水来给我喝。” (串)民15:32,33

†[吕]以利亚就起身、往撒勒法去；到了城门，见有一个寡妇在捡柴。以利亚呼叫她、说：“求你用器皿取点儿水来给我喝好不好？”

†[思]他就起身往匝尔法特去了，来到城门时，看见一个寡妇在那里拾木柴。厄里亚唤她说：“请你用器皿取点水来给我喝！”

†[当代]他来到撒勒法的城门口，看见一个寡妇在捡柴。以利亚就请她打水给自己喝。

†[新译]于是以利亚起来，往撒勒法去了；他来到城门口的时候，就看见一个寡妇在那里捡柴；以利亚呼叫她，说：“请你用器皿取点水来给我！”

†[Wlb]遂起、往撒勒法、至邑门、见嫠妇采薪、呼之曰、请尔以器、取水少许以饮我、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾就到撒勒法去了。来到城门口的时候，他看见一个寡妇在捡柴。他就对她说：“请给我一点水喝。”

†[Kjv]So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

†[Nkjv]So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, indeed a widow was there gathering sticks. And he called to her and said, "Please bring me a little water in a cup, that I may drink."

†[BBE]So he got up and went to Zarephath; and when he came to the door of the town, he saw a widow woman getting sticks together; and crying out to her he said, Will you give me a little water in a vessel for my drink?

†[GNT] So Elijah went to Zarephath, and as he came to the town gate, he saw a widow gathering firewood. "Please bring me a drink of water," he said to her.

†[NIV]So he went to Zarephath. When he came to the town gate, a widow was there gathering sticks. He called to her and asked, "Would you bring me a little water in a jar so I may have a drink?"

本会注释　　捡柴。在燃料缺乏的东方这是很常见的一幅景象。妇女和儿童走遍各处寻找一点木柴或草茎用来生火作饭。

王上17:11 她去取水的时候，以利亚又呼叫她说：“也求你拿点饼来给我！”

†[吕]她去取的时候，以利亚又呼叫她、说：“求你也随手给我拿点儿饼来好么？”

†[思]她正要去取水的时候，厄里亚又叫住她说：“请你也顺便给我拿点饼来！”

†[当代]那妇人打水的时候，以利亚就对她说：“请你给我拿一点饼来吧。”

†[新译]她去取水的时候，以利亚又叫她，说：“请你也给我拿点饼来！”

†[Wlb]妇往时、又呼之曰、请尔手持片饼与我、

†[Xdv]寡妇要去拿水的时候，伊莱贾喊着说：“也请带些饼给我！”

†[Kjv]And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.

†[Nkjv]And as she was going to get it, he called to her and said, "Please bring me a morsel of bread in your hand."

†[BBE]And when she was going to get it, he said to her, And get me with it a small bit of bread.

†[GNT] And as she was going to get it, he called out, "And please bring me some bread, too."

†[NIV]As she was going to get it, he called, "And bring me, please, a piece of bread."

本会注释　　拿点饼。是耶和华让先知去求饼的。祂最清楚当时的情况——寡妇的贫穷和先知对于食物的需要。寡妇自己尚且处在极大的需要之中，她会把她自己的儿子仅有的一点食物给一个陌生人吗？

王上17:12 她说：“我指着永生耶和华你的上帝起誓，我没有饼，坛内只有一把面，瓶里只有一点油；我现在找两根柴，回家要为我和我儿子做饼；我们吃了，死就死吧！”

†[吕]她说：“我指着永恒主你的永活上帝来起誓：我没有饼，只有内一把面粉，罐里一点儿油；你看，我正在捡捡两根柴，去为自己和儿子作饼；吃了来死，算了。”

†[思]那寡妇说：“我指着永生上主你的天主起誓：我没有饼，缸里只有一把面，罐里还有一点油。你看，我正要拾两根木柴，回去为我和我的儿子做点东西，吃了等死。”

†[当代]可是，那妇人却回答说：“我指著永生的主、你的上帝告诉你：我没有饼，我家里只有一把面和一点点油；我出来捡柴就是要回去做饼，我和儿子吃了这最后的一餐，就等著饿死了。”

†[新译]她说：“我指着永活的耶和华你的　神起誓，我没有饼，缸里只有一把面粉，瓶里只有一点油。你看我正在捡两根柴，然后回去，为自己和儿子做饼，我们吃完了，就等死。”

†[Wlb]曰、我指尔之上帝、维生之耶和华以誓、我无饼、惟余一握之面于罂、少许之油于瓶、今采薪二、归而为我及子备之、食之而死、

†[Xdv]寡妇说：“我对永生上主──你的上帝发誓，我没有饼。我所有的只是罐里一把面粉和瓶里一点点橄榄油。我到这里来捡柴，要带回家去预备仅有的一点食物，给我们母子吃；那是我们最后的一顿饭了，以后只有等着饿死。”

†[Kjv]And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

†[Nkjv]So she said, "As the LORD your God lives, I do not have bread, only a handful of flour in a bin, and a little oil in a jar; and see, I am gathering a couple of sticks that I may go in and prepare it for myself and my son, that we may eat it, and die."

†[BBE]Then she said, By the life of the Lord your God, I have nothing but a little meal in my store, and a drop of oil in the bottle; and now I am getting two sticks together so that I may go in and make it ready for me and my son, so that we may have a meal be

†[GNT] She answered, "By the living Lord your God I swear that I don't have any bread. All I have is a handful of flour in a bowl and a bit of olive oil in a jar. I came here to gather some firewood to take back home and prepare what little I have for my son an

†[NIV]As surely as the Lord your God lives," she replied, "I don't have any bread-only a handful of flour in a jar and a little oil in a jug. I am gathering a few sticks to take home and make a meal for myself and my son, that we may eat it-and die."

王上17:13 以利亚对她说：“不要惧怕！可以照你所说的去做吧！只要先为我做一个小饼拿来给我，然后为你和你的儿子做饼。

†[吕]以利亚对她说：“不要怕；你只管去，照你所说的去作；只要先为我作个小烙饼，拿出来给我，然后去为你和你儿子作。

†[思]厄里亚对她说：“你不用害怕，尽管照你所说的去做；只是先为我做一个小饼，给我拿来！然後，再为你和你的儿子做，

†[当代]以利亚听了就安慰她说：“你不要害怕，你可以照样去做饼，只是你要先为我做一小块饼，然后再做你儿子和你自己的。

†[新译]以利亚对她说：“不要惧怕，照着你所说的去作吧，不过要先为我做一个小饼，拿出来给我，然后才为你自己和儿子做饼。

†[Wlb]以利亚曰、勿惧、其往、如尔所言而行、先为我作小饼、携之至、后为尔及子作饼、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾对她说：“别担心；去做你的饭吧！可是先做一块小饼带给我，然后用剩下的做给你和你的儿子，

†[Kjv]And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

†[Nkjv]And Elijah said to her, "Do not fear; go and do as you have said, but make me a small cake from it first, and bring it to me; and afterward make some for yourself and your son.

†[BBE]And Elijah said to her, Have no fear; go and do as you have said, but first make me a little cake of it and come and give it to me, and then make something for yourself and your son.

†[GNT] "Don't worry," Elijah said to her. "Go on and prepare your meal. But first make a small loaf from what you have and bring it to me, and then prepare the rest for you and your son.

†[NIV]Elijah said to her, "Don't be afraid. Go home and do as you have said. But first make a small cake of bread for me from what you have and bring it to me, and then make something for yourself and your son.

本会注释　　先为我作。这个要求是信心的试验。那个寡妇刚刚解释了自己经济上的困境。她微薄的粮食马上就要告罄，仅仅够给她和她的儿子做一点吃的，随后等待他们的就是饥饿。

王上17:14 因为耶和华以色列的上帝如此说：坛内的面必不减少，瓶里的油必不缺短，直到耶和华使雨降在地上的日子。”

†[吕]因为永恒主以色列的上帝这么说：‘内的面粉决不至于用完，罐里的油决不至于短缺，直到永恒主降雨在地面上那日子。’”

†[思]因为上主以色列的天主这样说：直到上主使雨落在这地上的那一天，缸里的面，决不会用完；罐里的油，也决不会缺少。”

†[当代]以色列的主上帝说：在天降甘霖，五谷生长以前，你家里的面和油必定不会短缺。”

†[新译]因为耶和华以色列的　神这样说：‘缸里的面粉必不会用完，瓶里的油决不会短缺，直等到耶和华降雨在地面上的日子。’”

†[Wlb]盖以色列之上帝耶和华曰、罂内之面不减、瓶中之油不罄、迨耶和华降雨于地、

†[Xdv]因为上主──以色列的上帝这样说：‘一直到我──上主降雨的那一天，罐里的面粉用不完，瓶里的油也用不尽。’”

†[Kjv]For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.

†[Nkjv]For thus says the LORD God of Israel: "The bin of flour shall not be used up, nor shall the jar of oil run dry, until the day the LORD sends rain on the earth."'

†[BBE]For this is the word of the Lord, the God of Israel: The store of meal will not come to an end, and the bottle will never be without oil, till the day when the Lord sends rain on the earth.

†[GNT] For this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: "The bowl will not run out of flour or the jar run out of oil before the day that I, the Lord, send rain.' "

†[NIV]For this is what the Lord , the God of Israel, says: 'The jar of flour will not be used up and the jug of oil will not run dry until the day the Lord gives rain on the land.' "

本会注释　　伴随着要求的还有应许。以利亚告诉她，她的付出会带来福气。上帝向她指出，她将得到的比她给先知的要多得多。她承受了这个考验并得到丰盛的回报。

王上17:15 妇人就照以利亚的话去行。她和她家中的人，并以利亚，吃了许多日子。

†[吕]妇人就去，照以利亚所说的去行；她跟以利亚、和她家里的人、吃了许多日子。

†[思]那个寡妇就照厄里亚的话去做了；她和厄里亚并她的孩子吃了许多日子；

†[当代]于是，那寡妇就依照以利亚的话去做了。以利亚和寡妇的一家就这样吃用了许多天，

†[新译]她就去照着以利亚所说的作了。她和以利亚，以及她的家人，吃了许多日子。

†[Wlb]妇往、遵以利亚言而行、妇与其家、及以利亚、食之多日、

†[Xdv]寡妇就去照着伊莱贾吩咐她的做了。他们大家都有足够的食物吃，并且吃了好些日子。

†[Kjv]And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

†[Nkjv]So she went away and did according to the word of Elijah; and she and he and her household ate for many days.

†[BBE]So she went and did as Elijah said; and she and he and her family had food for a long time.

†[GNT] The widow went and did as Elijah had told her, and all of them had enough food for many days.

†[NIV]She went away and did as Elijah had told her. So there was food every day for Elijah and for the woman and her family.

本会注释　　吃了许多日子。她有吃的是因为她相信上帝的应许，而她周围千万相信巴力的人却都在挨饿。当施舍的呼召发出时，她所有的只够自己和儿子一餐饭。但当她付出之后，她就有足够的粮食满足自己和全家，包括先知在内好多日子。她因着信得了生命和福气。“有施散的，却更增添”（箴11:24）。

王上17:16 坛内的面果不减少，瓶里的油也不缺短，正如耶和华藉以利亚所说的话。

†[吕]内的面粉果然没有用完，罐里的油也没有短缺，正如永恒主的话、由以利亚经手所说过的。

†[思]缸里的面，果然没有用完，罐里的油，也没有减少，正如上主藉厄里亚所说的话。

†[当代]面和油果然是用之不尽，就像主藉著以利亚所说的一样。

†[新译]缸里的面粉果然没有用完，瓶里的油也没有短缺，正像耶和华借着以利亚所说的话一样。

†[Wlb]罂内之面不减、瓶中之油不罄、如耶和华藉以利亚所言、

†[Xdv]正如上主藉伊莱贾所许诺的，罐里的面粉没有用完，瓶里的油也没有用尽。

†[Kjv]And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.

†[Nkjv]The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of the LORD which He spoke by Elijah.

†[BBE]The store of meal did not come to an end, and the bottle was never without oil, as the Lord had said by the mouth of Elijah.

†[GNT] As the Lord had promised through Elijah, the bowl did not run out of flour nor did the jar run out of oil.

†[NIV]For the jar of flour was not used up and the jug of oil did not run dry, in keeping with the word of the Lord spoken by Elijah.

本会注释　　不减少。上帝的府库决不缺乏。耶和华是一切福惠的泉源。那些学会依靠祂的人在今生也能得到丰满的喜乐和福惠，而藐视祂恩典的人却无所得（太6:25,33）。

王上17:17 这事以后，作那家主母的妇人，她儿子病了；病得甚重，以致身无气息。

†[吕]这些事以后、那家主母的妇人她儿子病了，病得很厉害，以致那孩子连奄奄的气息都没有。

†[思]这事以後，那妇人，即那家的主母的儿子病了，病得很重，就断了气。

†[当代]后来，那妇人的儿子害了重病，最后还死了。

†[新译]这些事以后，那妇人，就是那个家庭的主人的儿子病了。他的病情十分严重，以致呼吸都停止了。

†[Wlb]厥后、家主之子遘疾甚剧、至无气息、

†[Xdv]过了一段时间，寡妇的儿子生病，越来越重，最后病死了。

†[Kjv]And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.

†[Nkjv]Now it happened after these things that the son of the woman who owned the house became sick. And his sickness was so serious that there was no breath left in him.

†[BBE]Now after this, the son of the woman of the house became ill, so ill that there was no breath in him.

†[GNT] Some time later the widow's son got sick; he got worse and worse, and finally he died.

†[NIV]Some time later the son of the woman who owned the house became ill. He grew worse and worse, and finally stopped breathing.

本会注释　　病了。那个寡妇有上帝同在与祝福的充分凭据，但她的儿子还是病了。痛苦和死亡临到恶人，也临到义人。尽管一个人献身服侍上帝殷勤努力，但失望和哀伤，痛苦和离别还是会有的。

王上17:18 妇人对以利亚说：“神人哪，我与你何干？你竟到我这里来，使上帝想念我的罪，以致我的儿子死呢？” (串)申33:1王上20:28|路4:34

†[吕]妇人对以利亚说：“神人哪，我与你之间有什么相干？你竟到我这里来，重翻起我罪孽的旧案，而使我儿子死阿！”

†[思]妇人於是对厄里亚说：“天主的人，我与你有什麽关系？你到我这里来，竟叫上主记起我的罪恶，杀死了我的儿子！”

†[当代]那妇人对以利亚说：“神人啊，我跟你有什么关系呢？你到我这里来，难道是要讨罚我的罪，取我儿子的性命吗？”

†[新译]于是妇人对以利亚说：“神人哪，我跟你有什么关系呢？你竟到我这里来，使耶和华想起我的罪孽，杀死我的儿子。”

†[Wlb]妇谓以利亚曰、上帝仆欤、我与尔何与、尔来此、使忆我罪、而杀我子耶、

†[Xdv]寡妇对伊莱贾说：“上帝所重用的仆人哪，你为什么这样待我？你到这里来是要使上帝记起我的罪，使我的儿子死吗？”

†[Kjv]And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son?

†[Nkjv]So she said to Elijah, "What have I to do with you, O man of God? Have you come to me to bring my sin to remembrance, and to kill my son?"

†[BBE]And she said to Elijah, What have I to do with you, O man of God? have you come to put God in mind of my sin, and to put my son to death?

†[GNT] She said to Elijah, "Man of God, why did you do this to me? Did you come here to remind God of my sins and so cause my son's death?"

†[NIV]She said to Elijah, "What do you have against me, man of God? Did you come to remind me of my sin and kill my son?"

本会注释　　神人。这个称呼表明妇人相信上帝并相信以利亚是祂的先知。一个腓尼基妇人能说出这样的话表现了她极大的信心。即使在以利亚到来之前，她也“是相信真神的，并且已经遵照她所能看到的一点亮光而实行”（《先知与君王》129页）。在以色列人转离上帝而去拜巴力的时候，一个信奉巴力国家的妇人却表现了她对以色列上帝的信心。在最无希望的土地上撒的种子也能结出恩典的果实来。
　　想念。这句话表现了一颗伤痛的心已经失去了理智。以利亚给这个家庭带来的是欢乐和生命而不是痛苦和死亡。她在痛苦中就将自己的不幸遭遇和先知的到来联系起来，感到这刑罚是她自己生活中的罪造成的。先知的出现让她对自己的罪深感自责并将她的不幸看作从上帝而来的刑罚。

王上17:19 以利亚对她说：“把你儿子交给我。”以利亚就从妇人怀中将孩子接过来，抱到他所住的楼中，放在自己的床上，

†[吕]以利亚对她说：“把你儿子交给我。”以利亚就从妇人怀中将孩子接过来，抱上去到自己所住的房顶屋里，让孩子躺在以利亚自己的床上。

†[思]厄里亚对妇人说：“把你的儿子交给我！”於是厄里亚从她怀里接过孩子来，抱到他住的楼上，放在自己的床上，

†[当代]以利亚从妇人的怀中接过孩子，抱他到自己楼上的房间去，放在床上，

†[新译]以利亚对她说：“把你的儿子交给我吧！”以利亚就从她的怀中把孩子接过来，抱他上到自己所住的楼上去，放在自己的床上。

†[Wlb]曰、以子付我、遂取诸母怀、抱至所居之楼、置于己床、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾说：“把孩子交给我！”他从寡妇怀里把孩子抱过来，带到楼上他住的房间，放在上。

†[Kjv]And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.

†[Nkjv]And he said to her, "Give me your son." So he took him out of her arms and carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his own bed.

†[BBE]And he said to her, Give your son to me. And lifting him out of her arms, he took him up to his room and put him down on his bed.

†[GNT] "Give the boy to me," Elijah said. He took the boy from her arms, carried him upstairs to the room where he was staying, and laid him on the bed.

†[NIV]Give me your son," Elijah replied. He took him from her arms, carried him to the upper room where he was staying, and laid him on his bed.

王上17:20 就求告耶和华说：“耶和华我的上帝啊，我寄居在这寡妇的家里，你就降祸与她，使她的儿子死了吗？”

†[吕]他就向永恒主哀呼说：“永恒主我的上帝阿，我寄居在这寡妇家里，难道你竟降祸于她，使她的儿子死了么？”

†[思]呼求上主说：“上主，我的天主！我寄居在这寡妇家中，难道你也忍心加害於她，杀死她的儿子吗？”

†[当代]又祷告主说：“主我的上帝啊，我寄居在这寡妇的家里，她尽力款待我，你为什么要夺去她儿子的性命呢？”

†[新译]以利亚呼求耶和华说：“耶和华我的　神啊，我寄居在这寡妇的家里，你也降祸与她，使她的儿子死去吗？”

†[Wlb]吁耶和华曰、我上帝耶和华欤、我旅此嫠之家、汝岂降灾于彼、以杀其子乎、

†[Xdv]然后伊莱贾大声祷告：“上主──我的上帝啊！你为什么降灾祸给这寡妇呢？我借宿在她家里，你却叫她的儿子死！”

†[Kjv]And he cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?

†[Nkjv]Then he cried out to the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, have You also brought tragedy on the widow with whom I lodge, by killing her son?"

†[BBE]And crying to the Lord he said, O Lord my God, have you sent evil even on the widow whose guest I am, by causing her son's death?

†[GNT] Then he prayed aloud, "O Lord my God, why have you done such a terrible thing to this widow? She has been kind enough to take care of me, and now you kill her son!"

†[NIV]Then he cried out to the Lord , "O Lord my God, have you brought tragedy also upon this widow I am staying with, by causing her son to die?"

本会注释　　这个事例告诉上帝的儿女面对死亡该如何向祂呼求。“义人祈祷所发的力量是大有功效的”（雅5:16）。

王上17:21 以利亚三次伏在孩子的身上，求告耶和华说：“耶和华我的上帝啊，求你使这孩子的灵魂仍入他的身体！” (串)王下4:34,35徒20:10

†[吕]以利亚身对身地伏在孩子身上三次，向永恒主哀呼说：“永恒主我的上帝阿，叫这孩子魂回身上吧！”

†[思]厄里亚叁次伏在孩子身上，呼求上主说：“上主，我的天主，求你使这孩子的灵魂再回到他身上！”

†[当代]祷告完了，他就三次伏在孩子身上，求告主说：“主我的上帝啊，求你让这孩子活过来吧。”

†[新译]然后，以利亚三次伏在孩子的身上，向耶和华呼求说：“耶和华我的　神，求你恢复这孩子的生命吧。”

†[Wlb]乃伏于子身者三、吁耶和华曰、我上帝耶和华欤、祈使此子之魂、返于其躯、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾三次伏在孩子身上，祈求说：“上主──我的上帝啊，求你使这孩子还魂吧！”

†[Kjv]And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.

†[Nkjv]And he stretched himself out on the child three times, and cried out to the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, I pray, let this child's soul come back to him."

†[BBE]And stretching herself out on the child three times, he made his prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord my God, be pleased to let this child's life come back to him again.

†[GNT] Then Elijah stretched himself out on the boy three times and prayed, "O Lord my God, restore this child to life!"

†[NIV]Then he stretched himself out on the boy three times and cried to the Lord , "O Lord my God, let this boy's life return to him!"

本会注释　　伏在孩子的身上。这不代表先知采用什么自然的手段使孩子复活。只有赐生命的上帝能使人复活。以利亚恳切地祈求上帝使这个孩子的生命重新回到他的体内。
　　灵魂。希伯来文nephesh。在《旧约》中出现七百多次，有各种译法，如“灵魂”（创2:7；12:5等等），“活物”（创1:21,24；2:19；利11:46等），“人口”（创14:21；书20:9；耶43:6等），“生命”（创9:4；出4:19；书2:14等），“死人”（利19:28；民9:6,7,10等），“自己”（利11:43；王上19:4；赛46:2等），还有其它多种译法。在所有的译法中，最适合本节的应该是“生命。”译成“灵魂”会产生误导并传递出一种错误的观念：即有一种能脱离人的身体而永远独立存在的有意识的实体。nephesh没有这样的意思。它出现七百多次，没有一次是这种意思或是有一点点这方面的暗示。没有一次nephesh被称为不朽的。圣经的译者在其它一百一十九处都将其翻译为“生命，”在这里同样是合适的。一个显著的例子是王上19:4，以利亚呼喊说：“耶和华啊，求你取我的性命[希伯来文nephesh]。”译者在这里正确地运用了“生命”一词。关于这个问题，详见@创35:18@注释。

王上17:22 耶和华应允以利亚的话，孩子的灵魂仍入他的身体，他就活了。 (串)来11:35

†[吕]永恒主听了以利亚的声音；孩子魂回，他就活了。

†[思]上主听了厄里亚的呼求，孩子的灵魂又回到他身上，孩子就又活了。

†[当代]主听了以利亚的祈求，孩子就还魂复生了。

†[新译]耶和华垂听了以利亚的话，孩子的生命果然恢复，活过来了。

†[Wlb]耶和华允其所祈、子魂乃返而苏、

†[Xdv]上主垂听了伊莱贾的祷告，孩子又开始呼吸，活过来了。

†[Kjv]And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.

†[Nkjv]Then the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came back to him, and he revived.

†[BBE]And the Lord gave ear to the voice of Elijah, and the child's spirit came into him again, and he came back to life.

†[GNT] The Lord answered Elijah's prayer; the child started breathing again and revived.

†[NIV]The Lord heard Elijah's cry, and the boy's life returned to him, and he lived.

本会注释　　通过信心的祷告，“有妇人得自己的死人复活”（来11:35）。这个神迹是在以色列和世界历史的危急关头施行的，当时人类对上帝的信心正在减退。人们将自然的力量看作生命和医治的源头。他们需要将自己的注意转向上帝，学习是祂赐人生命，惟有祂的力量不仅能医治病人还能使死人复活。这样的神迹是不可能保守秘密的。原来这里还有巴力绝对做不到的事情。当人们得知上帝的权能使寡妇的儿子从死里复活了，巴力的势力就开始崩溃。

王上17:23 以利亚将孩子从楼上抱下来，进屋子交给他母亲，说：“看哪，你的儿子活了！”

†[吕]以利亚将孩子抱起来，从房顶屋子抱下来到屋子里，交给他母亲，说：“看哪，你儿子活了。”

†[思]厄里亚将孩子从楼上抱下来，到房间内，把孩子交给他母亲说：“看，你儿子活了！”

†[当代]以利亚将孩子从楼上抱下来，交给他的母亲说：“你看，孩子活过来了！”

†[新译]以利亚把孩子抱起来，从楼上下到屋子里去，把孩子交给他的母亲；以利亚说：“看，你的儿子活了！”

†[Wlb]以利亚携之下楼、入室、付于其母、曰、汝子复生矣、

†[Xdv]伊莱贾把孩子抱回楼下，交给他母亲，对她说：“看哪，你的孩子活了！”

†[Kjv]And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.

†[Nkjv]And Elijah took the child and brought him down from the upper room into the house, and gave him to his mother. And Elijah said, "See, your son lives!"

†[BBE]And Elijah took the child down from his room into the house and gave him to his mother and said to her, See, your son is living.

†[GNT] Elijah took the boy back downstairs to his mother and said to her, "Look, your son is alive!"

†[NIV]Elijah picked up the child and carried him down from the room into the house. He gave him to his mother and said, "Look, your son is alive!"

本会注释　　你的儿子活了。多少位母亲刺痛的心灵渴望听到这样的话啊！这位母亲现在听到的令她喜乐的话语，许多母亲凭着信心在不久的将来都会听到。这位撒勒法的寡妇，由于她的信心和好客，有多么意想不到的福气和恩惠临到她身上啊！她把自己和儿子最后一点食物给了先知并在自己简陋的家中为先知腾出一方栖身之地，作为回报，她的儿子死而复生了。“人因为先知的名接待先知，必得先知所得的赏赐”（太10:41；另见赛58:10,11）。

王上17:24 妇人对以利亚说：“现在我知道你是神人，耶和华藉你口所说的话是真的。” (串)约3:2

†[吕]妇人对以利亚说：“现在我才知道你真是个神人，而永恒主的话又真地由你口中说出。”

†[思]那妇人对厄里亚说：“现在我知道你是天主的人，上主藉你的口所说的话，确是真理。”

†[当代]那妇人对以利亚说：“现在，我知道你真是从主而来的先知了。主藉著你口所说的都是真的。”

†[新译]妇人对以利亚说：“现在我知道你是神人，耶和华借着你的口所说的话是真实的。”

†[Wlb]妇曰、我今知尔乃上帝仆、耶和华藉尔口所言者、真实无妄、

†[Xdv]寡妇说：“现在我确实知道你是圣人；上主藉着你说的话都是真实的！”

†[Kjv]And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the LORD in thy mouth is truth.

†[Nkjv]Then the woman said to Elijah, "Now by this I know that you are a man of God, and that the word of the LORD in your mouth is the truth."

†[BBE]Then the woman said to Elijah, Now I am certain that you are a man of God, and that the word of the Lord in your mouth is true.

†[GNT] She answered, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the Lord really speaks through you!"

†[NIV]Then the woman said to Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the Lord from your mouth is the truth."

本会注释　　我知道。这位寡妇最出乎寻常地肯定了耶和华话语的可靠性。上帝已照祂的应许给她实现。上帝的应许总是确实的。上帝的儿女都应该紧握祂的应许而毫不动摇，“因为那应许我们的是信实的”（来10:23）。即使上帝不为我们行这样的神迹，就像古时祂为撒勒法的寡妇所行的，祂的儿女也有千种万种办法知道祂的话是信实的。如今上帝依然是良善的，有能力的，并乐意供给我们一切的需要，就象祂对撒勒法的寡妇那样（见太6:25-34）。
