士师记第18章

《圣经》士师记-第18章

士18:1 那时，以色列中没有王。但支派的人仍是寻地居住；因为到那日子，他们还没有在以色列支派中得地为业。 (串)士17:6;19:1;21:25|书19:47,48士1:34

†[吕]当那些日子以色列中没有王；那些日子但的族派仍在寻找着可住的地业，因为在以色列众族派中、直到那日还没有拈下哪一块地给他们做产业。

†[思]那时在以色列没有君王，同时丹支派仍在寻找居住的基地，因为直到那一天在以色列支派中，丹支派尚未得到基地。

†[当代]那时以色列没有王。但族的人还在到处觅地容身，因为他们仍然没有得到土地为产业。

†[新译]在那些日子，以色列中没有王。那时，但支派还在寻找可居住的地业，因为直到那一天，在以色列的众支派中，但支派仍没有得着地业。

†[Wlb]维时、以色列无王、但之支派、在以色列中、未得其业、故觅地以居、

†[Xdv]那时，以色列没有君王。但支族在寻找他们可以安居的土地，因为他们还没在以色列各支族中分得自己的土地。

†[Kjv]In those days there was no king in Israel: and in those days the tribe of the Danites sought them an inheritance to dwell in; for unto that day all their inheritance had not fallen unto them among the tribes of Israel.

†[Nkjv]In those days there was no king in Israel. And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking an inheritance for itself to dwell in; for until that day their inheritance among the tribes of Israel had not fallen to them.

†[BBE]In those days there was no king in Israel, and in those days the Danites were looking for a heritage for themselves, to be their living-place; for up to that time no distribution of land had been made to them among the tribes of Israel.

†[GNT] There was no king in Israel at that time. In those days the tribe of Dan was looking for territory to claim and settle in because they had not yet received any land of their own among the tribes of Israel.

†[NIV]In those days Israel had no king. And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking a place of their own where they might settle, because they had not yet come into an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.

本会注释　　以色列中没有王。作者可能希望解释后面但人不法行为的发生只是因为没有国王维持治安。
　　到那日子。分给但人的土地在海与山地间的低地，可是但人不能从当地居民那里夺得此地。他们被迦南人逼退到山区（士1:34）。

士18:2 但人从琐拉和以实陶打发本族中的五个勇士，去仔细窥探那地，吩咐他们说：“你们去窥探那地。”他们来到以法莲山地，进了米迦的住宅，就在那里住宿。 (串)士13:25;16:31本章8,11|民13:17书2:1|书24:33士17:1,8

†[吕]于是但人从琐拉和以实陶打发他们家族全体范围内五个人、都是有力气的人去侦探窥察那地，对他们说：“你们去窥察那地”；他们到了以法莲山地，来到米迦的住宅，便在那里住宿。

†[思]于是丹子孙从祚辣和厄市陶耳，由全家族中，派了五个勇敢的人去窥探侦察那地方，对他们说：“你们去侦察那地方！”他们到了厄弗辣因山地，来到米加的住宅，就在那过夜。

†[当代]但人从琐拉和以实陶派出本族的五名勇士去窥探周围的地方。他们到了以法莲山区，在米迦家里歇宿。

†[新译]于是但人从琐拉和以实陶，差派他们家族中的五个勇士，去窥探查察那地，对他们说：“你们去查察那地吧。”他们来到以法莲山地，进了米迦的家，就在那里住宿。

†[Wlb]于族中遣勇士五人、由琐拉以实陶而往、窥察土地、语之曰、往窥其地、乃适以法莲山地、至米迦室宿焉、

†[Xdv]但支族人从族里选出五个勇士，派他们离开琐拉和以实陶，去探察土地。他们来到以法莲山区，住在米迦家里。

†[Kjv]And the children of Dan sent of their family five men from their coasts, men of valour, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, to spy out the land, and to search it; and they said unto them, Go, search the land: who when they came to mount Ephraim, to the house of

†[Nkjv]So the children of Dan sent five men of their family from their territory, men of valor from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and search it. They said to them, "Go, search the land." So they went to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, a

†[BBE]So the children of Dan sent five men from among their number, strong men, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, to take a look at the land and make a search through it; and they said to them, Go and make a search through the land; and they came to the hill-country

†[GNT] So the people of Dan chose five qualified men out of all the families in the tribe and sent them from the towns of Zorah and Eshtaol with instructions to explore the land and spy on it. When they arrived in the hill country of Ephraim, they stayed at Mic

†[NIV]So the Danites sent five warriors from Zorah and Eshtaol to spy out the land and explore it. These men represented all their clans. They told them, "Go, explore the land." The men entered the hill country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah, where t

本会注释　　本族中。即他们的宗族或支派中。
　　从琐拉。见@士13:2,25@注释。
　　窥探。他们看不到攻克所分配土地的希望，就打发本族的一些人出去寻找一个较容易定居的地方。他们这样做就违背了上帝最初到犹大地业中赐给他们地业的计划。信靠上帝会使他们驱逐当地的居民。向北迁移是公然承认他们不愿遵从上帝的计划。
　　住宿。找一个夜晚的住处。

士18:3 他们临近米迦的住宅，听出那少年利未人的口音来，就进去问他说：“谁领你到这里来？你在这里做什么？你在这里得什么？”

†[吕]他们在米迦的住宅附近、认出那青年‘利未人’的口音来，就转到那里，问他说：“谁领你到这里来？你在此地作什么？你在这里得了什么？”

†[思]他们在米加家附近，认出那少年肋末的声音，就过去向他说：“谁领你来到这？你在这作甚么？你在这有甚么职务？”

†[当代]他们走近米迦住宅的时候，就在无意之中听出那利未青年的口音，便进去问他说：“你在这里是干什么的？为什么你会在这里呢？”

†[新译]他们在米迦的家附近，认出那青年利未人的口音来，就过去他那里问他：“谁带你到这里来？你在这里作什么？你在这里有什么？”

†[Wlb]近其室时、识少者利未人之声、就而问曰、谁导尔至此、在此何为、何所得乎、

†[Xdv]他们听出那年轻的利未人说话的口音就去问他：“你在这里做什么？谁带你到这里来的？”

†[Kjv]When they were by the house of Micah, they knew the voice of the young man the Levite: and they turned in thither, and said unto him, Who brought thee hither? and what makest thou in this place? and what hast thou here?

†[Nkjv]While they were at the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young Levite. They turned aside and said to him, "Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place? What do you have here?"

†[BBE]When they were near the house of Micah, hearing a voice which was not strange to them, that of the young Levite, they went out of their road to his place, and said to him, How did you come here? and what are you doing in this place? and why are you here?

†[GNT] While they were there, they recognized the accent of the young Levite, so they went up to him and asked, "What are you doing here? Who brought you here?"

†[NIV]When they were near Micah's house, they recognized the voice of the young Levite; so they turned in there and asked him, "Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place? Why are you here?"

本会注释　　听出……口音来。意思可能是他们来米迦家之前就熟悉这个利未人，所以能辨认出他的声音，或者是他们从他在米迦神堂中侍奉的言谈举止，认出他是一个利未人，如果他是摩西的孙子（见30节），那他肯定是妇孺皆知的。

士18:4 他回答说：“米迦待我如此如此，请我作祭司。” (串)士17:10,12

†[吕]他对他们说：“米迦这样这样待我；他了我，我就做他的祭司。”

†[思]他回答说：“米加待我如此如此！他聘了我作他的司祭。”

†[当代]那青年便把米迦聘他作祭司的事告诉他们。

†[新译]他回答他们：“米迦如此这般待我；他雇了我，我就作了他的祭司。”

†[Wlb]少者以米迦如何相待告曰、米迦雇我为其祭司、

†[Xdv]他回答：“是米迦安排的；他聘我作祭司，付我酬劳。”

†[Kjv]And he said unto them, Thus and thus dealeth Micah with me, and hath hired me, and I am his priest.

†[Nkjv]He said to them, "Thus and so Micah did for me. He has hired me, and I have become his priest."

†[BBE]And he said to them, This is what Micah did for me, and he gave me payment and I became his priest.

†[GNT] He answered, "I have an arrangement with Micah, who pays me to serve as his priest."

†[NIV]He told them what Micah had done for him, and said, "He has hired me and I am his priest."

士18:5 他们对他说：“请你求问上帝，使我们知道所行的道路通达不通达。” (串)民27:21王上22:5赛30:1,2何4:12

†[吕]他们对他说：“请你求问上帝，使我们知道我们所行的路顺利不顺利。”

†[思]他们对他说：“你求问天主，使我们知道，我们将走的路顺利吗？”

†[当代]他们听了便说：“那么，请你求问上帝，看看我们的旅途是否亨通。”

†[新译]他们对他说：“请你求问　神，使我们知道我们要走的道路是否顺利。”

†[Wlb]曰、请咨诹上帝、使知我之前途、是否利达、

†[Xdv]他们对他说：“请你求问上帝，我们这一次出来探察是否成功。”

†[Kjv]And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous.

†[Nkjv]So they said to him, "Please inquire of God, that we may know whether the journey on which we go will be prosperous."

†[BBE]Then they said, Do get directions from God for us, to see if the journey on which we are going will have a good outcome.

†[GNT] They said to him, "Please ask God if we are going to be successful on our trip."

†[NIV]Then they said to him, "Please inquire of God to learn whether our journey will be successful."

本会注释　　求问。但人的探子了解到利未人有求问神灵的物品，就是以弗得和神像，就请他求问耶和华，他们所行的探险路程是否顺利通达。

士18:6 祭司对他们说：“你们可以平平安安的去，你们所行的道路是在耶和华面前的。” (串)撒上1:17

†[吕]祭司对他们说：“你们可以平平安安地去；你们所行的路是在永恒主面前行的。”

†[思]司祭回答他们说：“你们平安去罢！上主必使你们所走的路顺遂。”

†[当代]祭司回答说：“你们放心去吧，主会在路途上眷顾你们。”

†[新译]祭司对他们说：“你们平安地去吧，你们要走的道路是蒙耶和华悦纳的。”

†[Wlb]祭司曰、安然而往、尔之前途、耶和华所顾也、

†[Xdv]祭司回答：“不用担心，上主在你们的旅途中看顾你们。”

†[Kjv]And the priest said unto them, Go in peace: before the LORD is your way wherein ye go.

†[Nkjv]And the priest said to them, "Go in peace. The presence of the LORD be with you on your way."

†[BBE]And the priest said to them, Go in peace: your way is guided by the Lord.

†[GNT] The priest answered, "You have nothing to worry about. The Lord is taking care of you on this trip."

†[NIV]The priest answered them, "Go in peace. Your journey has the LORD 's approval."

本会注释　　在耶和华面前的。即你们的行程是蒙上帝看顾和保守的。这个利未人是采用摩西的律法所禁止的崇拜形式，敬拜真神上帝的。

士18:7 五人就走了，来到拉亿，见那里的民安居无虑，如同西顿人安居一样。在那地没有人掌权扰乱他们；他们离西顿人也远，与别人没有来往。 (串)本章10,27|本章28

†[吕]五人就走，来到拉亿，看见其中的人民安居无虑，如同西顿人那样，泰然自若、安心无虑；那地又没有人抑制他们什么事；他们离西顿人也远，和别人没有来往。

†[思]于是那五个人就去了，来到拉依士，在那看见城中的人民安居乐业，一如漆冬人一样，平安无虑，地产丰富，一无所缺；并且他们离漆冬又远，与阿兰也没有往来。

†[当代]五人起程往前走，就来到拉亿，发觉当地人民生活富裕，安居无虑，好像西顿人一样安居。他们生活安恬平静，全无戒备，四周也没有强邻威胁。这地方距离西顿很远，与邻近的村落也没有交往。

†[新译]于是那五个人离开了，来到拉亿，看见那里的人民安然居住，好像西顿人一样，生活平静安稳；在那地又没有人掌权，使他们受屈辱；他们离西顿人也很远，也没有与别人来往。

†[Wlb]五人遂往、至拉亿、见其居民、如西顿人、安逸无虑、因无强者相害也、地离西顿甚远、不与他人交际、

†[Xdv]于是，这五个人离开了。他们来到拉亿城，发现那里的居民安居无虑，像西顿人那样。这些人和平、安宁，与人无争；土地出产又丰富。他们离西顿人很远，没有跟人结盟。

†[Kjv]Then the five men departed, and came to Laish, and saw the people that were therein, how they dwelt careless, after the manner of the Zidonians, quiet and secure; and there was no magistrate in the land, that might put them to shame in any thing; and they

†[Nkjv]So the five men departed and went to Laish. They saw the people who were there, how they dwelt safely, in the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure. There were no rulers in the land who might put them to shame for anything. They were far from the Sido

†[BBE]Then the five men went on their way and came to Laish and saw the people who were there, living without thought of danger, like the Zidonians, quiet and safe; for they had everything on earth for their needs, and they were far from the Zidonians and had n

†[GNT] So the five men left and went to the town of Laish. They saw how the people there lived in security like the Sidonians. They were a peaceful, quiet people, with no argument with anyone; they had all they needed. They lived far away from the Sidonians and

†[NIV]So the five men left and came to Laish, where they saw that the people were living in safety, like the Sidonians, unsuspecting and secure. And since their land lacked nothing, they were prosperous. Also, they lived a long way from the Sidonians and had no

本会注释　　拉亿。在书19:47 中叫作利善，但人夺取该城后，将它改名为“但”（士18:29）。《旧约》中经常提及“从但到别是巴”。它是以色列最北端的定居地（士20:1；撒上3:20；撒下3:10等）。它在黑门山脚附近临近约旦河的源头，位于推罗东偏南42.7公里和大马士革西南67.2公里处。
　　安居无虑。拉亿居民远离扰乱他们的外族人，既没有修建城墙，也没有设置卫兵护卫他们的城。
　　如同西顿人安居一样。西顿人不好战，而善于经商。
　　离……远。实际距离不是很远，但有一座山脉隔在他们中间。
　　没有来往。他们满足于与世隔绝的独立生活。

士18:8 五人回到琐拉和以实陶，见他们的弟兄；弟兄问他们说：“你们有什么话？”

†[吕]五人来到琐拉和以实陶见他们的族弟兄；族弟兄问他们说：“你们怎么啦？”

†[思]当他们回到祚辣和厄市陶耳自己弟兄那时，弟兄们问他们说：“你们带来什么消息？”

†[当代]后来，他们回到琐拉和以实陶覆命，但人就问他们说：“你们有什么发现吗？”

†[新译]他们回到琐拉和以实陶自己的族人那里去；族人问他们：“你们有什么话说？”

†[Wlb]五人返于琐拉以实陶、告其昆弟、昆弟问曰、尔意若何、

†[Xdv]这五个人回到琐拉和以实陶以后，他的同胞问他们有什么发现，

†[Kjv]And they came unto their brethren to Zorah and Eshtaol: and their brethren said unto them, What say ye?

†[Nkjv]Then the spies came back to their brethren at Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brethren said to them, "What is your report?"

†[BBE]So they came back to their brothers in Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brothers said to them, What news have you?

†[GNT] When the five men returned to Zorah and Eshtaol, the people asked them what they had found out.

†[NIV]When they returned to Zorah and Eshtaol, their brothers asked them, "How did you find things?"

士18:9 他们回答说：“起来，我们上去攻击他们吧！我们已经窥探那地，见那地甚好。你们为何静坐不动呢？要急速前往得那地为业，不可迟延。 (串)民13:20,21书2:23,24|王上22:3书18:3

†[吕]他们说：“起来，我们上去攻击他们；因为我们已看了那地；阿，好极啦。你们竟静坐不动呢。可别懒着走，懒着进去取得那地呀。

†[思]他们回答说：“起来，让我们上到拉依士去，因为我们已察看过，那地真肥美，你们还等什么？不要再迟延，赶快去占领！

†[当代]他们回答说：“我们前去攻取那地吧，我们已经打探清楚了，那地方实在是一片广阔、肥沃、富庶、丰足的土地。来！让我们出发吧！上帝已经把那地方赐给我们了。”

†[新译]他们回答：“起来，我们上去攻击他们吧。因为我们已经看过那地，见那地十分美好，你们还静坐不动吗？不可再迟延，要赶快去取得那地。

†[Wlb]曰、可起、而往攻之、我见其地甚美、岂可闲居、宜往勿缓、据以为业、

†[Xdv]他们说：“大家来吧，我们去打拉亿！我们探察过，那地方确实好。赶快，不要待在这里无所事事，我们去占领吧！

†[Kjv]And they said, Arise, that we may go up against them: for we have seen the land, and, behold, it is very good: and are ye still? be not slothful to go, and to enter to possess the land.

†[Nkjv]So they said, "Arise, let us go up against them. For we have seen the land, and indeed it is very good. Would you do nothing? Do not hesitate to go, and enter to possess the land.

†[BBE]And they said, Up! and let us go against Laish; for we have seen the land, and it is very good: why are you doing nothing? Do not be slow to go in and take the land for your heritage.

†[GNT] "Come on," they replied. "Let's attack Laish. We saw the land, and it's very good. Don't stay here doing nothing; hurry! Go on in and take it over!

†[NIV]They answered, "Come on, let's attack them! We have seen that the land is very good. Aren't you going to do something? Don't hesitate to go there and take it over.

本会注释　　甚好。参民14:7；书2:23,24。探子们对迁移到拉亿的可行性意见一致，并催促立即行动。

士18:10 你们到了那里，必看见安居无虑的民，地也宽阔。上帝已将那地交在你们手中；那地百物俱全，一无所缺。” (串)申8:9士9:19

†[吕]你们去、见到一族安心无虑的人里去的；那地两面宽阔；上帝已把那地交在你们手中；是个一无所有的地方；地上百物它全都有。

†[思]到那去，是到一个不设防的人民那去，地面宽广辽阔；天主已把那地交在你们手中；那地方物产丰富，一无所缺。”

†[当代]－

†[新译]你们到了那里的时候，你们必遇见安然居住的人民；那地的两边宽阔，　神已经把那地交在你们手里；那地百物俱全，一无所缺。”

†[Wlb]既至、必见其民安逸无虑、土壤宽广、天下物产、罔有所缺、上帝付之尔手、

†[Xdv]你们到了那里会发现居民毫无防备；那是一片广大的土地，物产丰富，什么都有。上帝已经把它交给你们了。”

†[Kjv]When ye go, ye shall come unto a people secure, and to a large land: for God hath given it into your hands; a place where there is no want of any thing that is in the earth.

†[Nkjv]When you go, you will come to a secure people and a large land. For God has given it into your hands, a place where there is no lack of anything that is on the earth."

†[BBE]When you come there you will come to a people living without thought of danger; and the land is wide, and God has given it into your hands: a place where there is everything on earth for man's needs.

†[GNT] When you get there, you will find that the people don't suspect a thing. It is a big country; it has everything a person could want, and God has given it to you."

†[NIV]When you get there, you will find an unsuspecting people and a spacious land that God has put into your hands, a land that lacks nothing whatever."

士18:11 于是但族中的六百人，各带兵器，从琐拉和以实陶前往，

†[吕]于是但人的家族从那里往前行，从琐拉和以实陶，六百人、各有战器装束着。

†[思]于是有六百丹支派的人，带着武器，从祚辣和厄市陶耳出发，

†[当代]于是，但族便从琐拉和以实陶派出六百人，各带兵器，

†[新译]于是但人的家族中有六百人，带着兵器从那里出发，就是从琐拉和以实陶出发。

†[Wlb]于是但之室家六百人、各佩器械、自琐拉以实陶启行、

†[Xdv]于是，但支族中有六百人武装好，离开琐拉和以实陶。

†[Kjv]And there went from thence of the family of the Danites, out of Zorah and out of Eshtaol, six hundred men appointed with weapons of war.

†[Nkjv]And six hundred men of the family of the Danites went from there, from Zorah and Eshtaol, armed with weapons of war.

†[BBE]So six hundred men of the Danites from Zorah and Eshtaol went out armed with instruments of war.

†[GNT] So six hundred men from the tribe of Dan left Zorah and Eshtaol, ready for battle.

†[NIV]Then six hundred men from the clan of the Danites, armed for battle, set out from Zorah and Eshtaol.

本会注释　　六百人。并非整个族群迁移，而只是那些有胆量而没有合适土地的人。由于六百人带着他们的家眷迁移（21节），整个迁移的队伍可能达一千五百到两千人。

士18:12 上到犹大的基列耶琳，在基列耶琳后边安营。因此那地方名叫玛哈尼但，直到今日。 (串)书15:60|士13:25

†[吕]他们上去，在犹大、在基列耶琳扎营；因此人把那地方叫做玛哈尼但；到今日还叫那名；你看，就在基列耶琳的西边呢。

†[思]经过山路，在犹大克黎雅特耶阿陵安营；因此，那地方直到今日叫作“丹营；”这地是在克黎雅特耶阿陵西面。

†[当代]他们首先在基列耶琳安营；因此，直到今天那地方仍然被称为但族的营盘。

†[新译]他们上去，在犹大的基列耶琳安营；因此人把那地方叫作玛哈尼但（“玛哈尼但”意即“但的军营”），直到现在；这地方是在基列耶琳的西边。

†[Wlb]上至犹大之基列耶琳、建营其后、名其地曰玛哈尼但、至于今日、

†[Xdv]他们出发，在犹大的基列耶琳西边扎营，因此这地方到现在还叫但营。

†[Kjv]And they went up, and pitched in Kirjathjearim, in Judah: wherefore they called that place Mahanehdan unto this day: behold, it is behind Kirjathjearim.

†[Nkjv]Then they went up and encamped in Kirjath Jearim in Judah. (Therefore they call that place Mahaneh Dan to this day. There it is, west of Kirjath Jearim.)

†[BBE]And they went up and put up their tents in Kiriath-jearim in Judah: so that place is named Mahaneh-dan to this day. It is to the west of Kiriath-jearim.

†[GNT] They went up and camped west of Kiriath Jearim in Judah. That is why the place is still called Camp of Dan.

†[NIV]On their way they set up camp near Kiriath Jearim in Judah. This is why the place west of Kiriath Jearim is called Mahaneh Dan to this day.

本会注释　　基列耶琳。意思是“森林之城”。从尤西比乌斯时期（四世纪）这个地方被称为是特奥阿扎尔，即现在的喀亚特附近，在至迦法的道路上，距耶路撒冷约12.8公里。基列耶琳最初是基遍人的城邑之一（书9:17），撒母耳时期主要是来自犹大支派的人居住在此地。
　　玛哈尼但。就是“但的营”（见士13:25）。

士18:13 他们从那里往以法莲山地去，来到米迦的住宅。

†[吕]他们从那里过去、到以法莲山地，来到米迦的住宅。

†[思]他们又从那经过厄弗辣因山地，来到米加的住处。

†[当代]然后，他们就上到以法莲山区去，来到米迦居住的地方。

†[新译]他们从那里经过，往以法莲山地去，来到米迦的家。

†[Wlb]由此往以法莲山地、至米迦室、

†[Xdv]他们继续往前去，到了以法莲山区米迦的家。

†[Kjv]And they passed thence unto mount Ephraim, and came unto the house of Micah.

†[Nkjv]And they passed from there to the mountains of Ephraim, and came to the house of Micah.

†[BBE]From there they went on to the hill-country of Ephraim and came to the house of Micah.

†[GNT] They went on from there and came to Micah's house in the hill country of Ephraim.

†[NIV]From there they went on to the hill country of Ephraim and came to Micah's house.

本会注释　　米迦把获得一个利未人看作是一件幸事。此人可能受过圣所工作的训练，如今在他的私人神堂里供职。他任命他的儿子只是出于需要。但现在他很高兴有了一位专业的，至少原来蒙召在圣所供职的人。这就给了他利未人供职的保证。他觉得耶和华会祝福他所做的一切。显然他的敬拜方式上已不知不觉违背了上帝的诫命。

本会注释　　米迦的住宅。可能是米迦的住宅和神堂周围形成的居住区，现名贝斯-米迦。但人迁移安营在临近往北的道路上。

士18:14 从前窥探拉亿地的五个人对他们的弟兄说：“这宅子里有以弗得和家中的神像，并雕刻的像与铸成的像，你们知道吗？现在你们要想一想当怎样行。” (串)士17:4,5

†[吕]从前去侦探拉亿地的那五个人应时对他们的族弟兄说：“这些住宅里有神谕像、家神像、雕像、铸像、你们知道么？现在你们要考虑考虑应当怎样行。”

†[思]当时先去窥探那地的五个人，告诉弟兄们说：“你们知不知道，在此家内有“厄弗得、”“忒辣芬”和一尊神像？现在你们要决定当作什么。”

†[当代]五名以前负责侦察拉亿的对其余的人说：“这家有神像，还有以弗得，另有一些家宅神像和许多雕像和铸成的像。我们应该做的事情，不是很明显吗？”

†[新译]从前去窥探拉亿地的五个人，对他们的族人说：“这些屋子里有以弗得、神像、雕像和铸像，你们知道吗？现在你们要考虑一下应该怎样行。”

†[Wlb]昔窥拉亿之五人、谓昆弟曰、此室有圣衣家神、雕像铸像、尔知之乎、当思如何而为、

†[Xdv]那五个探察过拉亿的人对同伴说：“你们知道吗？这里有一间屋子，里面有一尊木头偶像，外面裹着银子，还有其它偶像和一件以弗得。你们想想，我们该怎么办？”

†[Kjv]Then answered the five men that went to spy out the country of Laish, and said unto their brethren, Do ye know that there is in these houses an ephod, and teraphim, and a graven image, and a molten image? now therefore consider what ye have to do.

†[Nkjv]Then the five men who had gone to spy out the country of Laish answered and said to their brethren, "Do you know that there are in these houses an ephod, household idols, a carved image, and a molded image? Now therefore, consider what you should do."

†[BBE]Then the five men who had gone to make a search through the country of Laish, said to their brothers, Have you knowledge that in these houses there is an ephod and family gods and a pictured image and a metal image? So now you see what to do.

†[GNT] Then the five men who had gone to spy on the country around Laish said to their companions, "Did you know that here in one of these houses there is a wooden idol covered with silver? There are also other idols and an ephod. What do you think we should do

†[NIV]Then the five men who had spied out the land of Laish said to their brothers, "Do you know that one of these houses has an ephod, other household gods, a carved image and a cast idol? Now you know what to do."

本会注释　　这宅子里。指“这个村子”。
　　想一想。即想一想如何才能使以弗得，神像和雕刻的像归但人所有。接下来发生的事表明了他们所作的决定，一队人与那个利未人交谈，同时其他人急忙进入神堂，把这些圣物拿走。

士18:15 五人就进入米迦的住宅，到了那少年利未人的房内问他好。 (串)创43:27

†[吕]五人就转身，进入米迦的住宅，到了那青年‘利未人’的屋里，给他问安。

†[当代]那五个人就走进米迦的家里，去向那年轻的利未人问安，

†[新译]于是他们五人转身，进入米迦的家，来到那青年利未人的屋里，向他问安。

†[Wlb]遂转诣米迦室、入少者利未人之室、而问其安、

†[Xdv]五个探子进到米迦家里，问候那利未人。

†[Kjv]And they turned thitherward, and came to the house of the young man the Levite, even unto the house of Micah, and saluted him.

†[Nkjv]So they turned aside there, and came to the house of the young Levite man--to the house of Micah--and greeted him.

†[BBE]And turning from their road they came to the house of the young Levite, the house of Micah, and said to him, Is it well with you?

†[GNT] So they went into Micah's house, where the young Levite lived, and asked the Levite how he was getting along.

†[NIV]So they turned in there and went to the house of the young Levite at Micah's place and greeted him.

士18:16 那六百但人各带兵器，站在门口。

†[吕]那六百人、各装有战器的但人、都站在大门口。

†[GNT] Meanwhile the six hundred Danite soldiers, ready for battle, were standing at the gate.

†[NIV]The six hundred Danites, armed for battle, stood at the entrance to the gate.

本会注释　　门口。显然，有护卫的墙环绕这个小村庄，至少在米迦的住宅和神堂周围。多数但人都在门口与利未人谈话（见17节）。

士18:17 窥探地的五个人走进去，将雕刻的像、以弗得、家中的神像，并铸成的像，都拿了去。祭司和带兵器的六百人，一同站在门口。 (串)士17:4,5本章14

†[当代]随行的六百人就留守门外。那五个人走到神龛，就动手拿走所有的神像。

†[新译]从前去窥探那地的五个人上前，进入里面，把雕像、以弗得、神像和铸像都拿去了；祭司和带着兵器的六百人都站在门口。

†[Wlb]窥地之五人入室、取雕像铸像、家神圣衣、祭司与佩器械之六百人、立于门外、

†[Kjv]And the five men that went to spy out the land went up, and came in thither, and took the graven image, and the ephod, and the teraphim, and the molten image: and the priest stood in the entering of the gate with the six hundred men that were appointed wi

†[NIV]The five men who had spied out the land went inside and took the carved image, the ephod, the other household gods and the cast idol while the priest and the six hundred armed men stood at the entrance to the gate.

本会注释　　五个人。同时窥探的五个人进入屋内，不知不觉地从米迦神堂里把所有宗教圣物一卷而空。

士18:18 那五个人进入米迦的住宅，拿出雕刻的像、以弗得、家中的神像，并铸成的像，祭司就问他们说：“你们做什么呢？”

†[吕]那五个人进了米迦的住宅，将雕像、神谕像（传统：以弗得的雕像）、家神像、和铸像都拿了走，祭司就问他们说：“你们作什么？”

†[NIV]When these men went into Micah's house and took the carved image, the ephod, the other household gods and the cast idol, the priest said to them, "What are you doing?"

本会注释　　你们作什么呢？当五个人拿着礼拜用物回到门口时，祭司惊奇地大喊：“你们作什么呢？”

士18:19 他们回答说：“不要作声，用手捂口，跟我们去吧！我们必以你为父、为祭司。你作一家的祭司好呢？还是作以色列一族一支派的祭司好呢？” (串)伯21:5;29:9;40:4箴30:32弥7:16|士17:10

†[吕]他们对他说：“不要作声，用手悟着口，跟我们走，做我们的师父我们的祭司。你做一人的家的祭司好呢？还是做以色列中一族派一家族的祭司好呢？”

†[思]他们回答说：“不要作声，用手掩住你的口，跟我们去，作我们的师傅和司祭；你作一个人家的司祭好呢？还是在以色列中间作一个支派，一个家族的司祭好呢？”

†[当代]“请你不要吵，跟我们来，作我们的祭司吧。作以色列其中一族的祭司，不是比作一个人家里的祭司更好吗？”

†[新译]他们回答他：“不要出声，用手掩着你的嘴，跟我们走吧，好作我们的师父和祭司。你作一家的祭司好呢？还是作以色列中一个支派一个家族的祭司好呢？”

†[Wlb]曰、勿语、以手掩口、与我偕往、为我之父与祭司、汝为一家之祭司、与为以色列一支派一族之祭司、孰愈、

†[Xdv]他们说：“嘘！别作声。跟我们来，作我们的祭司和顾问吧。作全以色列族的祭司比作一个家族的祭司好吧！”

†[Kjv]And they said unto him, Hold thy peace, lay thine hand upon thy mouth, and go with us, and be to us a father and a priest: is it better for thee to be a priest unto the house of one man, or that thou be a priest unto a tribe and a family in Israel?

†[Nkjv]And they said to him, "Be quiet, put your hand over your mouth, and come with us; be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be a priest to the household of one man, or that you be a priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?"

†[BBE]And they said to him, Be quiet; say nothing, and come with us and be our father and priest; is it better for you to be priest to one man's house or to be priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?

†[GNT] They told him, "Keep quiet. Don't say a word. Come with us and be our priest and adviser. Wouldn't you rather be a priest for a whole Israelite tribe than for the family of one man?"

†[NIV]They answered him, "Be quiet! Don't say a word. Come with us, and be our father and priest. Isn't it better that you serve a tribe and clan in Israel as priest rather than just one man's household?"

本会注释　　用手捂口。用手指捂住嘴唇是人最常见的动作之一（见伯21:5；29:9；箴30:32）。

士18:20 祭司心里喜悦，便拿着以弗得和家中的神像，并雕刻的像，进入他们中间。

†[吕]祭司心里高兴，便拿着神谕像、家神像和雕像，在众民中间走。

†[思]司祭满怀高兴，遂带了“厄弗得、”“忑辣芬”和神像，到了那些人中间。

†[当代]祭司听了，非常高兴，于是就带著以弗得和所有的神像，跟他们一起离开。

†[新译]祭司心里高兴，就拿着以弗得、神像和雕像，来到众人中间。

†[Wlb]祭司心悦、取圣衣暨家神雕像、入于民中、

†[Xdv]祭司听了非常高兴，就带着以弗得、包着银子的木偶像，和其它的偶像跟他们走了。

†[Kjv]And the priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod, and the teraphim, and the graven image, and went in the midst of the people.

†[Nkjv]So the priest's heart was glad; and he took the ephod, the household idols, and the carved image, and took his place among the people.

†[BBE]Then the priest's heart was glad, and he took the ephod and the family gods and the pictured image and went with the people.

†[GNT] This made the priest very happy, so he took the sacred objects and went along with them.

†[NIV]Then the priest was glad. He took the ephod, the other household gods and the carved image and went along with the people.

本会注释　　喜悦。祭司的背信弃义是值得注意的，他首先背叛了摩西律法规定的纯正敬拜，为了生计在米迦的偶像面前供职侍奉，现在他又背弃待他如子的恩人（士17:11），并满怀喜悦地与偷拿别人财物的人为伍。我们必须注意到，这段故事中没有一个人的品格是值得我们效学的，米迦自己是个小偷，这个利未人也是唯利是图，但人是无法无天的强盗。
　　他们中间。显然是为了隐蔽和保护。

士18:21 他们就转身离开那里，妻子、儿女、牲畜、财物都在前头。

†[吕]他们就转身而走，把弱小的和牲畜跟财物放在前面。

†[思]他们遂转身回去，把妇孺、牲口以及辎重放在前方。

†[当代]他们就转身离去，妻儿、牲畜和财物就走在前面。

†[新译]他们就转身离去，把妇孺和牲畜，以及财物，都放在前面。

†[Wlb]众遂转而前往、使幼稚牲畜货财先行、

†[Xdv]他们转身启程，让儿女、牛群，和财物走在前头。

†[Kjv]So they turned and departed, and put the little ones and the cattle and the carriage before them.

†[Nkjv]Then they turned and departed, and put the little ones, the livestock, and the goods in front of them.

†[BBE]So they went on their way again, putting the little ones and the oxen and the goods in front of them.

†[GNT] They turned around and started off, with their children, their livestock, and their belongings going ahead.

†[NIV]Putting their little children, their livestock and their possessions in front of them, they turned away and left.

本会注释　　儿女。这是一次涉及妇孺的正常迁移。
　　财物。即行李，家庭用品等。
　　在前头。妇女和儿童在武装人员前面行走，但人显然担心有人追赶。有文本没有提妇女，然而他们显然是在场的。

士18:22 离米迦的住宅已远，米迦的近邻都聚集来，追赶但人，

†[吕]他们离了米迦的住宅已经远了，在米迦住宅附近那些在家里的人都被召出来，把但人追上了。

†[思]当他们离开米加的住宅相当远的时候，米加和米加家附近的人，都聚集起来，去追赶丹的子孙。

†[当代]他们离开那地方已有一段路程，米迦和他的邻居就赶上来，

†[新译]他们离开米迦的家很远的时候，在米迦的家附近各家的人，都被召集出来，去追赶但人。

†[Wlb]离米迦室已远、米迦之邻咸集、追及但人呼之、

†[Xdv]在他们离开米迦的家一段路以后，米迦才召集邻居出来追赶。他追上但族人，

†[Kjv]And when they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men that were in the houses near to Micah's house were gathered together, and overtook the children of Dan.

†[Nkjv]When they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah's house gathered together and overtook the children of Dan.

†[BBE]When they had gone some way from the house of Micah, the men from the houses near Micah's house came together and overtook the children of Dan,

†[GNT] They had traveled a good distance from the house when Micah called his neighbors out for battle. They caught up with the Danites

†[NIV]When they had gone some distance from Micah's house, the men who lived near Micah were called together and overtook the Danites.

本会注释　　米迦的近邻。神像的失窃被看作全村人的损失，而不仅仅是米迦的损失。
　　聚集。直译是“召出来”，即召集武装人员。

士18:23 呼叫但人。但人回头问米迦说：“你聚集这许多人来做什么呢？”

†[吕]他们呼叫但人；但人转脸问米迦说：“你召了这许多人来作什么？”

†[思]他们向丹的子孙呼喊，丹的子孙回过脸来对米加说：“你叫喊什么？”

†[当代]喝令他们停步。“你们追上来干什么？”但人问他们说。

†[新译]他们呼叫但人；但人转过脸来，问米迦：“你召集了这么多人出来作什么？”

†[Wlb]但人回顾、问米迦曰、尔有何事、率斯群众而来、

†[Xdv]喊他们。但族人转身问米迦：“怎么回事？这群人是干什么的？”

†[Kjv]And they cried unto the children of Dan. And they turned their faces, and said unto Micah, What aileth thee, that thou comest with such a company?

†[Nkjv]And they called out to the children of Dan. So they turned around and said to Micah, "What ails you, that you have gathered such a company?"

†[BBE]Crying out to them. And the Danites, turning round, said to Micah, What is your trouble, that you have taken up arms?

†[GNT] and shouted at them. The Danites turned around and asked Micah, "What's the matter? Why all this mob?"

†[NIV]As they shouted after them, the Danites turned and said to Micah, "What's the matter with you that you called out your men to fight?"

本会注释　　回头。可能甚至没有停止前进的脚步。

士18:24 米迦说：“你们将我所做的神像和祭司都带了去，我还有所剩的吗？怎么还问我说‘做什么’呢？” (串)创31:30

†[吕]米迦说：“你们将我所造的神像和那祭司都带了去，我还有什么呢？你们怎么还问我说作什么呢？”

†[思]米加回答说：“你们把我所制的神像和司祭都带走，我还有什么呢？”怎么你们还向我说：你作什么？”

†[当代]“你们还问我们想干什么！你们偷走了我的神像和祭司，我现在什么都没有了。”米迦反驳他们说。

†[新译]米迦回答：“你们把我所做的神像和我的祭司都带走了，我还有什么呢？你们怎么还问我：‘你作什么’呢？”

†[Wlb]曰、我所作之神像、及所任之祭司、尔携之去、一无所遗、而问我有何事耶、

†[Xdv]米迦回答：“你们还问怎么回事？你们抢走了我的祭司和神像；我什么都完了！”

†[Kjv]And he said, Ye have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and ye are gone away: and what have I more? and what is this that ye say unto me, What aileth thee?

†[Nkjv]So he said, "You have taken away my gods which I made, and the priest, and you have gone away. Now what more do I have? How can you say to me, "What ails you?"'

†[BBE]And he said, You have taken my gods which I made, and my priest, and have gone away; what is there for me now? Why then do you say to me, What is your trouble?

†[GNT] Micah answered, "What do you mean, "What's the matter?' You take my priest and the gods that I made, and walk off! What have I got left?"

†[NIV]He replied, "You took the gods I made, and my priest, and went away. What else do I have? How can you ask, 'What's the matter with you?' "

本会注释　　我所做。这句话令人吃惊地出自一个以色列人的口。
　　神像。米迦毫无顾忌地称神像为他的神。尽管米迦自称是敬拜耶和华（见士17:2,3），心中却存有许多异教神灵的观念。
　　怎么还问我。米迦对他们的反问以及试图脱开干系感到愤怒，显然但人的力量大大强于米迦的力量，所以就对米迦不屑一顾（见26节）。

士18:25 但人对米迦说：“你不要使我们听见你的声音，恐怕有性暴的人攻击你，以致你和你的全家尽都丧命。”

†[吕]但人对米迦说：“再别作声给我们听啦，恐怕有性暴的人会袭击你，以致你的命和你全家的命都被收拾掉。”

†[思]丹的子孙对他说：“不要再让我们听见你的声音，免得我们中间有暴燥的人打击你们，使你和你全家都丧失性命！”

†[当代]但人回答说：“请你小心说话，不然，我们当中若有人沉不住气，你和你一家就都要完蛋了。”

†[新译]但人对米迦说：“不要再让我们听见你的声音，恐怕有暴躁的人攻击你们，以致你和你全家尽都丧失性命。”

†[Wlb]但人曰、勿使尔声闻于我众、恐暴戾者击尔、致尔与尔家人、俱丧厥命、

†[Xdv]但族人对他说：“你最好别再多说，不然，你激怒了这些人，他们会攻击你，你和你全家都会死。”

†[Kjv]And the children of Dan said unto him, Let not thy voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows run upon thee, and thou lose thy life, with the lives of thy household.

†[Nkjv]And the children of Dan said to him, "Do not let your voice be heard among us, lest angry men fall upon you, and you lose your life, with the lives of your household!"

†[BBE]And the children of Dan said to him, Say no more, or men of bitter spirit may make an attack on you, causing loss of your life and the lives of your people.

†[GNT] The Danites told him, "You had better not say anything else unless you want these men to get angry and attack you. You and your whole family would die."

†[NIV]The Danites answered, "Don't argue with us, or some hot-tempered men will attack you, and you and your family will lose your lives."

本会注释　　性暴的人。但人其实是说：“不要抱怨我们，免得激怒我们当中脾气暴躁的人来攻击你”。见撒下17:8 大卫和跟随他的勇士的脾气，比作如同田野丢崽子的母熊。

士18:26 但人还是走他们的路。米迦见他们的势力比自己强盛，就转身回家去了。

†[吕]但人迳自走着他们的路；米迦见他们比他强，就转身回家去了。

†[思]此后，丹的子孙继续前行，米加见他们比自己强大，就转身回了家。

†[当代]但人说完了便继续上路。米迦看见对方人多势众，自己难以应付，就只好转身回家去了。

†[新译]但人继续走他们的路；米迦见他们比自己强，就转身回自己的家去了。

†[Wlb]但人乃行其途、米迦见其强于己、则转而归家、

†[Xdv]但族人继续往前去；米迦见他们强壮，自己不是对手，只好回家。

†[Kjv]And the children of Dan went their way: and when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back unto his house.

†[Nkjv]Then the children of Dan went their way. And when Micah saw that they were too strong for him, he turned and went back to his house.

†[BBE]Then the children of Dan went on their way; and when Micah saw that they were stronger than he, he went back to his house.

†[GNT] Then the Danites went on. Micah saw that they were too strong for him, so he turned and went back home.

†[NIV]So the Danites went their way, and Micah, seeing that they were too strong for him, turned around and went back home.

士18:27 但人将米迦所做的神像和他的祭司都带到拉亿，见安居无虑的民，就用刀杀了那民，又放火烧了那城， (串)本章7,10|书19:47

†[吕]但人将米迦所制造的圣物和他那祭司都带着走；他们到了拉亿，来到一族泰然自若安心无虑的人民那里，就用刀击杀了他们，又放火烧了那城。

†[思]丹的子孙带着米加所做的神像和他私有的司祭，来到拉依士，到了一个平安无虑的人民那，用刀剑杀戮了他们，放火烧了那城，

†[当代]但人带著米迦的神像和他的祭司来到拉亿，那里的人安居无虑，又没有防范，于是，他们轻易地把当地所有的居民杀掉，又放火烧了城。

†[新译]但人把米迦所做的神像和他的祭司都带走，他们来到拉亿，去到平静安居的人民那里，就用刀剑击杀了他们，又用火烧了那城。

†[Wlb]但人携米迦所制之物、及其祭司、至于拉亿、见其安逸无虑之民、击之以刃、火焚其邑、无人救援、

†[Xdv]但族人抢了祭司和米迦的神像以后就去攻打拉亿。拉亿和伯利合在同一个山谷，是个和平、安宁的城。但族人杀了城里的居民，放火烧城。没有人来救他们，因为拉亿离西顿很远，他们也没有跟别人结盟。但族人重建那城，在那里居

†[Kjv]And they took the things which Micah had made, and the priest which he had, and came unto Laish, unto a people that were at quiet and secure: and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and burnt the city with fire.

†[Nkjv]So they took the things Micah had made, and the priest who had belonged to him, and went to Laish, to a people quiet and secure; and they struck them with the edge of the sword and burned the city with fire.

†[BBE]And they took that which Micah had made, and his priest, and came to Laish, to a people living quietly and without thought of danger, and they put them to the sword without mercy, burning down their town.

†[GNT] After the Danites had taken the priest and the things that Micah had made, they went and attacked Laish, that town of peaceful, quiet people which was in the same valley as Bethrehob. They killed the inhabitants and burned the town. There was no one to s

†[NIV]Then they took what Micah had made, and his priest, and went on to Laish, against a peaceful and unsuspecting people. They attacked them with the sword and burned down their city.

本会注释　　安居无虑。探子的报告是准确的。无情的但人突袭了毫无防备的拉亿人，将拉亿城夷为平地。

士18:28 并无人搭救；因为离西顿远，他们又与别人没有来往。城在平原，那平原靠近伯利合。但人又在那里修城居住， (串)撒下10:6民13:21书19:28

†[吕]也没有人援救，因为离西顿很远，他们又和别人没有来往。城在那属伯利合的山谷中。但人就重建那城，住在那里，

†[思]没有人来援救，因为拉依士离漆冬很远，与阿兰又没有往来。这城位于贝特勒曷布山谷中；丹的子孙重建这城，住在那，

†[当代]拉亿这地方距离西顿实在是太远了，又因为他们与别人素无交往，以致孤立无援，所以，他们就这样被毁灭了。这事发生在伯利合附近的山谷里。但人重建该城后就住在那里。

†[新译]没有人搭救，因为离西顿很远，他们又与别人没有来往。这城位于靠近伯利合的山谷中。但人重建那城，住在其中。

†[Wlb]盖邑在近伯利合之谷中、离西顿甚远、不与他人交际、但人复建邑而居之、

†[Xdv]－

†[Kjv]And there was no deliverer, because it was far from Zidon, and they had no business with any man; and it was in the valley that lieth by Bethrehob. And they built a city, and dwelt therein.

†[Nkjv]There was no deliverer, because it was far from Sidon, and they had no ties with anyone. It was in the valley that belongs to Beth Rehob. So they rebuilt the city and dwelt there.

†[BBE]And they had no saviour, because it was far from Zidon, and they had no business with Aram; and it was in the valley which is the property of Beth-rehob. And building up the town again they took it for their living-place.

†[GNT] －

†[NIV]There was no one to rescue them because they lived a long way from Sidon and had no relationship with anyone else. The city was in a valley near Beth Rehob. The Danites rebuilt the city and settled there.

本会注释　　离西顿远。这块不幸的居民区离西顿很远。西顿可能是拉亿的宗主城市，由于拉亿居民没有与任何亚兰邻国的支派或城邑结盟，就没有友邦的军队来援救他们。
　　平原。可能是一片洼地，现已干涸的胡勒湖北边、黎巴嫩最低山脉底部的约旦河源头流经这里。
　　伯利合。意思是“街道的房屋”，据撒下10:6,8是讲亚兰语人的一个小城邦。
　　修城。但人在拉亿的废墟上修建了一座新城，古时的习惯是城市建在水源旁，修在最高处便于防守，因此会选择在同一地址上建新城。

士18:29 照着他们始祖以色列之子但的名字，给那城起名叫但；原先那城名叫拉亿。 (串)创14:14士20:1王上12:29,30;15:20

†[吕]用以色列所生的、他们的祖宗但的名字、给那城起名叫但；其实那城的名字先前叫做拉亿。

†[思]按他们的祖宗，以色列所生的儿子丹的名字，给这城起名叫丹；其实这城原先名叫拉依士。

†[当代]那座城原来的名字是拉亿，后来他们又把那城的名字改作但，以记念他们的祖先。

†[新译]按着他们的祖宗，以色列所生的儿子但的名字，给那城起名叫但；其实那城原先的名字叫拉亿。

†[Wlb]此邑昔名拉亿、今依其祖以色列子但之名、名之曰但、

†[Xdv]他们以他们祖先雅各的儿子但的名字命名，把拉亿这座城的名改为但。

†[Kjv]And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born unto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the first.

†[Nkjv]And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel. However, the name of the city formerly was Laish.

†[BBE]And they gave the town the name of Dan, after Dan their father, who was the son of Israel: though the town had been named Laish at first.

本会注释　　但。但人给拉亿城重新命名为但。“但”是拉结的使女辟拉给雅各生的儿子。
　　底波拉的歌提到过但在北方的的位置（士5:17），这表明17、18章所描写的迁移发生在士师时代的早期，可能在约书亚以后的长老时期、俄陀聂作士师以前。《士师记》的作者记录了移民和与之相关的偶像崇拜，说明了当时的背道和无法无天。这些状况导致了接二连三的外敌入侵和压迫。

士18:30 但人就为自己设立那雕刻的像。摩西的孙子、革舜的儿子约拿单，和他的子孙作但支派的祭司，直到那地遭掳掠的日子。 (串)出2:22;18:3|士17:12|撒上4:11,21诗78:60,61

†[吕]但人就为自己立那雕像；摩西（传统：玛拿西）的孙子、革舜的儿子约拿单、和他的子孙都做但人族派的祭司；直到那地遭掳掠的日子还是如此。

†[思]丹的子孙把那尊神像立起来，梅瑟的后裔，革尔雄的子孙约纳堂和他的子孙作丹支派的司祭，直到该地被掳掠的时日。

†[当代]但人把神像竖立起来，又指派摩西的孙儿、革舜的儿子约拿单和他的子孙作但族的祭司，直到这城被敌人攻陷为止。

†[新译]但人就为自己把那雕像立起来；摩西的孙子、革顺的儿子约拿单和他的子孙，都作了但支派的祭司，直到那地遭受掳掠的日子。

†[Wlb]立彼雕像、摩西子革顺之裔约拿单、暨其子孙、为但支派之祭司、迨至斯土见虏之日、

†[Xdv]但族人把偶像安置好，指派摩西的孙子，革舜的儿子乔纳单作但支族的祭司。乔纳单的子孙在那里作祭司一直到但族人被掳的时候。

†[Kjv]And the children of Dan set up the graven image: and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Manasseh, he and his sons were priests to the tribe of Dan until the day of the captivity of the land.

†[Nkjv]Then the children of Dan set up for themselves the carved image; and Jonathan the son of Gershom, the son of Manasseh, and his sons were priests to the tribe of Dan until the day of the captivity of the land.

†[BBE](And the children of Dan put up the pictured image for themselves; and Jonathan, the son of Gershom, the son of Moses, and his sons were priests for the tribe of the Danites till the day when the ark was taken prisoner.)

†[GNT] The Danites set up the idol to be worshiped, and Jonathan, the son of Gershom and grandson of Moses, served as a priest for the Danites, and his descendants served as their priests until the people were taken away into exile.

†[NIV]There the Danites set up for themselves the idols, and Jonathan son of Gershom, the son of Moses, and his sons were priests for the tribe of Dan until the time of the captivity of the land.

本会注释　　约拿单。这是作者首次说出这个利未人的名字。他先为米迦供职后又为但支派供职。
　　摩西。有文本为“玛拿西”。革顺的确是摩西的儿子，而不是玛拿西的儿子（出2:22；18:3）。在没有元音符号的希伯来原文中，摩西和玛拿西的唯一区别是，摩西没有字母n 。有趣的是，马所拉学者所编辑的希伯来文圣经中，字母n是以奇怪的方式插入这个名字中、“悬浮”在字行上面，表明很有可能它是后加的。希伯来文圣经还有其他“悬浮”字母的例子（诗80:14；伯38:13,15）。古代希伯来人的拉比和学者，以及现代的学者，包括犹太人和非犹太人，都声称这个字母是被拉比和文士插入摩西这个名字中而变成了玛拿西的，目的是为了掩盖他的孙子是背道的祭司这个事实，从而避免伤害摩西的声誉。《塔木德》说，约拿单是摩西的孙子，但因为他行了后来犹大王玛拿西所行的事，经文就把他划归到玛拿西的家庭。
　　顺便提及，如果约拿单是摩西的孙子，第18章记叙的事件就发生在很早了。这个在米迦家里侍奉的利未人与摩西相隔仅一代人。
　　遭掳掠。可能指北方支派遭外来势力的抢掠，如临近叙利亚的亚兰城邦。这件事没有记录下来。这不太可能指亚述在泰格拉斯皮勒斯尔时期掳走北方的支派，因为下一节说到这一时期“上帝的殿在示罗多少日子，但人为自己设立米迦所雕刻的像也在但多少日子”（见撒上1:24）。

士18:31 上帝的殿在示罗多少日子，但人为自己设立米迦所雕刻的像也在但多少日子。 (串)书18:1撒上1:3

†[吕]上帝的殿在示罗多少日子，但人为自己设立米迦所造的雕像也多少日子。

†[思]天主的殿在史罗多少时日，米加所作的神像在丹支派中也立了多少时日。

†[当代]在这段期间之内，上帝的会幕设立在示罗。

†[新译]　神的殿在示罗有多少日子，但人为自己设立米迦所做的雕像也有多少日子。

†[Wlb]米迦雕像之设、所历时日、与上帝室在示罗同、

†[Xdv]上帝的圣幕停留在示罗那段期间，米迦的偶像留在但。

†[Kjv]And they set them up Micah's graven image, which he made, all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.

†[Nkjv]So they set up for themselves Micah's carved image which he made, all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.

†[BBE]And they put up for themselves the image which Micah had made, and it was there all the time that the house of God was in Shiloh.

†[GNT] Micah's idol remained there as long as the Tent where God was worshiped remained at Shiloh.

†[NIV]They continued to use the idols Micah had made, all the time the house of God was in Shiloh.
