當那些日子、亞希多弗所定的計謀都像人求問上帝得來的話一樣；凡亞希多弗的計謀無論是為大衛定的、是為押沙龍定的、都是這樣。

在那些日子，亞希多弗所提的建議如同人向神求得的話語。亞希多弗的所有建議，無論是給大衛的還是給押沙龍的，都是如此。

當日亞希多弗所設之謀、如諮諏於上帝、為大衛、為押沙龍、皆如是、

亞希多弗昔從大闢、今從押沙龍、所議之事、人視之若諮諏於上帝。

當時亞希多弗定謀、人視之如問天主之言、昔為大衛定謀、今為押沙龍定謀、皆如是也、

Now in those days the advice Ahithophel gave was like that of one who inquires of God. That was how both David and Absalom regarded all of Ahithophel’s advice.

In those days the advice Ahithophel gave was as good as advice from someone who asks God for guidance. That’s what David and Absalom thought about all of Ahithophel’s advice.

Now in those days the counsel that Ahithophel gave was as if one consulted the word of God; so was all the counsel of Ahithophel esteemed, both by David and by Absalom.

Absalom followed Ahithophel’s advice, just as David had done. For every word Ahithophel spoke seemed as wise as though it had come directly from the mouth of God.

Now the advice Ahithophel gave in those days was like someone asking about a word from God— such was the regard that both David and Absalom had for Ahithophel’s advice.

Now the advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was taken as though one inquired of the word of God; so was all the advice of Ahithophel regarded by both David and Absalom.

押沙龍獻祭的時候，派人去把大衛的謀士，基羅人亞希多弗從他本城基羅請來。於是叛亂越發強大，因為隨從押沙龍的百姓日漸增多。

亞希多弗見他的計謀不被接納，就備上驢，動身歸回本城，到了自己的家。他留下遺囑給他的家，就上吊死了，葬在他父親的墳墓裏。

押沙龍和以色列眾人都說：「亞基人戶篩的計謀比亞希多弗的更好！」這是因為耶和華定意破壞亞希多弗的良謀，為的是耶和華要降禍給押沙龍。

那時，耶穌說：「父啊，天地的主，我感謝你！因為你把這些事向聰明智慧的人隱藏起來，而向嬰孩啟示出來。

他對人說：『看哪，敬畏主就是智慧；遠離惡事就是聰明。』」

因為這世界的智慧在上帝看來是愚拙的。如經上記着：「主使有智慧的人中了自己的詭計；」又說：「主知道智慧人的意念，因為它們是虛妄的。」

你們中間誰是有智慧有見識的呢？他就當在智慧的溫柔上顯出他的善行來。你們心裏若懷着惡毒的嫉妒和自私，就不可自誇，不可說謊話抵擋真理。這樣的智慧不是從上頭下來的，而是屬地上的，屬情慾的，屬鬼魔的。在何處有嫉妒、自私，在何處就有動亂和各樣的壞事。惟獨從上頭來的智慧，先是清潔，後是和平、溫良、柔順，滿有憐憫和美善的果子，沒有偏私，沒有虛偽。正義的果實是為促進和平的人用和平栽種出來的。

「我的百姓愚頑，不認識我；他們是愚昧無知的兒女，有智慧行惡，沒有知識行善。」

主人就誇獎這不義的管家做事精明，因為今世之子應付自己的世代比光明之子更加精明。

智慧人慚愧，驚惶，被擒拿；看哪，他們背棄耶和華的話，還會有甚麼智慧呢？

大衛求問耶和華說：「我追趕這羣人，是否追得上呢？」耶和華對他說：「你可以追，一定追得上，也一定救得回來。」

若有人講道，他要按着上帝的聖言講；若有人服事，他要按着上帝所賜的力量服事，好讓上帝在凡事上因耶穌基督得榮耀。願榮耀和權能都歸給他，直到永永遠遠。阿們！

他要站在以利亞撒祭司面前；以利亞撒要憑烏陵的判斷，在耶和華面前為他求問。他和以色列全會眾都要照以利亞撒的指示出入。」

他們自以為聰明，反成了愚昧，

死蒼蠅使做香的膏油散發臭氣；同樣，一點愚昧也能壓倒智慧和尊榮。

我呼求你，向你至聖所舉手的時候，求你垂聽我懇求的聲音！

他破壞通達人的計謀，使他們手所做的不得成就。

耶和華的律法全備，使人甦醒；耶和華的法度確定，使愚蒙人有智慧。
