three years of famine, three months of being swept away before your enemies, with their swords overtaking you, or three days of the sword of the Lord— days of plague in the land, with the angel of the Lord ravaging every part of Israel.’ Now then, decide how I should answer the one who sent me.”

You can have three years when there will not be enough food in the land. You can have three months when your enemies will sweep you away. They will catch up with you. They will destroy you with their swords. Or you can have three days when the sword of the Lord will punish you. That means there would be three days of plague in the land. My angel would strike down people in every part of Israel.’ So take your pick. Tell me how to answer the one who sent me.”

either three years of famine, or three months of devastation by your foes while the sword of your enemies overtakes you, or else three days of the sword of the Lord, pestilence on the land, with the angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the territory of Israel.’ Now decide what answer I shall return to him who sent me.”

You may choose three years of famine, three months of destruction by the sword of your enemies, or three days of severe plague as the angel of the Lord brings devastation throughout the land of Israel. Decide what answer I should give the Lord who sent me.”

three years of famine, or three months of devastation by your foes with the sword of your enemy overtaking you, or three days of the sword of the LORD— a plague on the land, the angel of the LORD bringing destruction to the whole territory of Israel.’ Now decide what answer I should take back to the one who sent me.”

three years of famine, or three months to be swept away before your foes while the sword of your enemies overtakes you, or else three days of the sword of the Lord: a plague in the land, and the angel of the Lord destroying throughout the territory of Israel.’ Now, therefore, consider what answer I shall bring back to Him who sent me.”

either three years of famine, or three months to be defeated by your foes with the sword of your enemies overtaking you, or else for three days the sword of the Lord— the plague in the land, with the angel of the Lord destroying throughout all the territory of Israel.’ Now consider what answer I should take back to Him who sent me.”

either three years of famine; or three months to be consumed before thy foes, while the sword of thine enemies overtaketh thee; or else three days the sword of Jehovah, even pestilence in the land, and the angel of Jehovah destroying throughout all the borders of Israel. Now therefore consider what answer I shall return to him that sent me.

three years of famine, or three months of devastation by your foes with the sword of your enemy overtaking you, or three days of the sword of the Lord— a plague on the land, the angel of the Lord bringing destruction to the whole territory of Israel.’ Now decide what answer I should take back to the One who sent me.”

Either three years’ famine; or three months to be destroyed before thy foes, while that the sword of thine enemies overtaketh[ thee]; or else three days the sword of the LORD, even the pestilence, in the land, and the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the coasts of Israel. Now therefore advise thyself what word I shall bring again to him that sent me.

three years of famine, or three months being chased by your enemies and struck down by their swords, or three days being struck down by the LORD, during which a plague will invade the land and the LORD’s messenger will destroy throughout Israel’s territory.’ Now, decide what I should tell the one who sent me.”

大衛在位之時、饑饉歷三載、大衛諮諏耶和華、耶和華曰、緣掃羅及其流血之家、殺基遍人也、

戮於刃者、較死於飢者猶幸兮、因乏田間之產、日漸衰弱、如被刺兮、

如爾不聽爾上帝耶和華之言、不守其誡命典章、我今日所諭爾者、則此諸詛、必臨及爾、

蓋耶和華將巡行、擊埃及人、見楣橛釁血、必逾越其門、不令施剿者入室擊爾、

我使鋒刃臨爾、以報背約之仇、爾集於邑垣、我則降疫癘於其中、付爾於敵、既絕餱糧、如折爾杖、十婦炊餅於一爐、權之以給、爾得食而不飽、○汝猶不聽從、所行逆我、我必震怒、以拂逆爾、督責爾罪、至於七倍、爾將食子女之肉、

耶和華必以癆疾、熱疾、炎疾、瘧疾、兵革、枯槁、霉爛擊爾、此災必追襲爾、致爾隕沒、

是夜耶和華之使者出、在亞述營、擊其人十八萬五千、晨起視之、乃屍而已、

以利沙曾謂所甦其子之婦曰、爾與爾家、起往可居之地而居、蓋耶和華必使饑饉臨於斯土、歷至七年、

我誠語汝、當以利亞時、天閉塞三年有六月、徧地大饑、以色列中多嫠、

上帝遣使往滅耶路撒冷、將滅之時、耶和華見之、悔降斯禍、遂諭施剿之使曰、足矣、可止爾手、其時耶和華之使者、立於耶布斯人阿珥楠之禾場、大衛舉目、見耶和華使者立於空際、拔刃在手、指耶路撒冷、大衛與諸長老、皆衣麻衣、俯伏於地、

迦得遂詣大衛曰、或饑饉臨於爾土七年、或為敵追襲遁逃三月、或疫癘流行爾國三日、爾其思之、俾我覆遣我者、大衛曰、我處窘迫之境、耶和華矜恤維大、願陷於其手、勿陷於人手、

耶和華必使爾為敵所敗、爾攻之也由一途、爾逃之也由七途、拋棄於天下萬國之中、

希律不歸榮上帝、主之使即擊之、為蟲所蝕而氣絕、○

耶和華之刃歟、爾將何時休息、其入於鞘、安然不動、

爾畜所生、爾土所產、俱為所食、迨爾滅亡、爾穀與酒及油、牛羣之犢、羊羣之羔、取之無遺、迨爾滅亡、爾上帝耶和華所賜爾之全地、其中諸邑、城垣高固、爾所恃也、敵必困爾於中、迨其傾圮、

此後我見使者四、立於地之四隅、握地之四風、使勿吹於地於海於樹、又見他使自日出處而上、執維生上帝印、大聲呼有權傷地及海之四使曰、勿傷地或海或樹、待我印我上帝諸僕之額、

則爾所懼之鋒刃、必追及爾於埃及地、所畏之饑饉、亦必迫從爾於埃及、爾必死於彼、

爾之孑遺、處於敵國、必使其心頹敗、風吹葉落、聞聲而怖、彼之遁逃、若避鋒刃、即無追者、亦必顚仆、無人追襲、自相蹂躪、如在鋒刃之前、無力拒敵、

旅於基列之提斯比人以利亞、告亞哈曰、我指所事維生之耶和華、以色列之上帝而誓、此數年間、非我有言、則雨露不降、

我必敵爾、使見擊於敵前、憾爾者將制爾、無人追襲、爾亦遁逃、

耶和華必以惡瘡、加於爾膝與股、自踵延及於頂、無術以療、

我若使疫癘流行斯土、洩忿而流其血、絕其人畜、雖挪亞但以理約伯在於其中、我指己生而誓、彼不得救其子女、惟以己義、自救生命而已、主耶和華言之矣、主耶和華曰、我以我之四重災、即鋒刃、饑饉、暴獸、疫癘、降於耶路撒冷、絕其人畜、其害豈非尤甚乎、

殘賊者陟曠野之荒邱、耶和華之刃吞噬斯土、自此至彼、凡有血氣者、罔獲綏安、

蓋耶和華以火與刃、罰凡有血氣者、為耶和華所戮者眾、

耶和華必以埃及人所患之癰、痔、疥、癬、不治之症、加乎爾身、

暗中流行之疫癘、午間勦滅之災患、爾皆不懼兮、

爾食舊穀、新穀既登、舊穀則徙、

世末亦然、天使將出、於義者中以別惡者、投之火爐、在彼有哀哭切齒矣、○
