编年纪上	1 Chronicles
¹撒殚起来反对以色列，怂恿达味统计以色列：	¹And Satan rose up against Israel: and moved David to number Israel.
²达味对约阿布及人民的首领说：「你们去统计以色列，由贝尔舍巴直到丹，然后回来告诉我，叫我知道他们的数目。」	²And David said to Joab, and to the rulers of the people: Go, and number Israel from Bersabee even to Dan, and bring me the number of them that I may know it.
³约阿布回答说：「愿上主使自己的百姓比现在更增加百倍！我主大王，他们不都是我主的仆人吗？我主为什么硬要这样作？为什么要使以色列陷于罪恶？」	³And Joab answered: The Lord make his people a hundred times more than they are: but, my lord the king, are they not all thy servants: why doth my lord seek this thing, which may be imputed as a sin to Israel?
⁴然而君王的命令迫使约阿布；约阿布便去，走遍了全以色列，然后回到耶路撒冷，	⁴But the king's word rather prevailed: and Joab departed, and went through all Israel: and returned to Jerusalem.
⁵将统计人民的数目呈报给达味：全以色列能持刀的人有一百一十万，犹大人能持刀的有四十七万。	⁵And he gave David the number of them, whom he had surveyed: and all the number of Israel was found to be eleven hundred thousand men that drew the sword: and of Juda four hundred and seventy thousand fighting men.
⁶惟有肋未人及本雅明人没有统计，因为约阿布憎厌君王的命令。	⁶But Levi and Benjamin he did not number: for Joab unwillingly executed the king's orders.
⁷这事使天主不悦，遂打击了以色列。	⁷And God was displeased with this thing that was commanded: and he struck Israel.
⁸达味对天主说：「我作这事，实在犯了重罪。现在，求你赦免你仆人的罪，因为我所行的实在昏愚。」	⁸And David said to God: I have sinned exceedingly in doing this: I beseech thee take away the iniquity of thy servant, for I have done foolishly.
⁹上主晓谕达味的先见者加得说：	⁹And the Lord spoke to Gad the seer of David, saying:
¹⁰「你去告诉达味：上主这样说：我给你提出三件事，任你选择一件，我好向你实行。」	¹⁰Go, and speak to David, and tell him: Thus saith the Lord: I give thee the choice of three things: choose one which thou wilt, and I will do it to thee.
¹¹加得来到达味前，对他说：「上主这样说：任你选择：	¹¹And when Gad was come to David, he said to him: Thus saith the Lord: choose which thou wilt:
¹²或者三年饥荒；或者三个月在你敌人前流亡，为敌人持刀追击；或者三日在你国内遭受上主的刀，即瘟疫，让上主的使者蹂躏以色列全境。现在你考虑一下，我应向那派遣我来的回复什么！」	¹²Either three years' famine: or three months to flee from thy enemies, and not to be able to escape their sword: or three days to have the sword of the Lord, and pestilence in the land, and the angel of the Lord destroying in all the coasts of Israel: now therefore see what I shall answer him who sent me.
¹³达味对加得说：「我很作难，但我宁愿落在上主手中，因为他富于仁慈，而不愿落在人手中。」	¹³And David said to Gad: I am on every side in a great strait: but it is better for me to fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercies are many, than into the hands of men.
¹⁴于是上主使瘟疫降于以色列；在以色列因瘟疫死了七万人。	¹⁴So the Lord sent a pestilence upon Israel. And there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
¹⁵当时，天主派一位天使往耶路撒冷去，要毁灭那城；将要毁灭的时候，上主一看，便后悔降灾，遂吩咐毁灭的天使说：「够了，现在收回你的手罢！」那时，上主的天使正立在耶步斯人敖尔难的禾场上。	¹⁵And he sent an angel to Jerusalem, to strike it: and as he was striking it, the Lord beheld, and took pity for the greatness of the evil: and said to the angel that destroyed: It is enough, now stop thy hand. And the angel of the Lord stood by the thrashing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
¹⁶达味举目，见上主的使者立在天地中间，手持脱鞘的刀，朝向耶路撒冷。达味与众长老都身穿麻衣，俯伏在地。	¹⁶And David lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand, turned against Jerusalem: and both he and the ancients clothed in haircloth, fell down flat on the ground.
¹⁷达味对天主说：「不是我下了令统计百姓么？是我犯了罪，是我这个牧者作了恶。但这羊群作了什么？上主，我的天主！愿你的手打击我和我的父家，但不要将瘟疫降在你百姓身上！」	¹⁷And David said to God: Am not I he that commanded the people to be numbered? It is I that have sinned: it is I that have done the evil: but as for this flock, what hath it deserved? O Lord my God, let thy hand be turned, I beseech thee, upon me, and upon my father's house: and let not thy people be destroyed.
¹⁸上主的天使吩咐加得去告诉达味，叫他上去，在耶步斯人敖尔难的禾场上，为上主建立一座祭坛。	¹⁸And the angel of the Lord commanded Gad to tell David, to go up, and build an altar to the Lord God in the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
¹⁹达味就照加得奉上主的名所说的话上去了。	¹⁹And David went up, according to the word of Gad, which he spoke to him in the name of the Lord.
²⁰敖尔难回头看见君王和他的四个儿子经过；那时敖尔难正在打麦子。	²⁰Now when Ornan looked up, and saw the angel, he and his four sons hid themselves: for at that time he was thrashing wheat in the floor.
²¹达味走到敖尔难那里，敖尔难一看见是达味，便走出禾场，俯首至地叩拜达味。	²¹And as David was coming to Ornan, Ornan saw him, and went out of the threshingfloor to meet him, and bowed down to him with his face to the ground.
²²达味对敖尔难说：「请将这块禾场地段让给我，我要在这禾场上为上主建立一座祭坛，请照足价让给我，为止息民间的灾祸。」	²²And David said to him: Give me this place of thy threshingfloor, that I may build therein an altar to the Lord: but thou shalt take of me as much money as it is worth, that the plague may cease from the people.
²³敖尔难对达味说：「尽管用罢！我主大王看着好，就去行罢！看，我将牛给你作全燔祭，打禾具作木柴，麦子作素祭：这一切我都供给你。」	²³And Ornan said to David: Take it, and let my lord the king do all that pleaseth him: and moreover the oxen also I give for a holocaust, and the drays for wood, and the wheat for the sacrifice: I will give it all willingly.
²⁴达味王对敖尔难说：「不成！我一定要照足价来买；我不能拿你的东西献于上主，不能用没有代价的东西，献作全燔祭。」	²⁴And king David said to him: It shall not be so, but I will give thee money as much as it is worth: for I must not take it from thee, and so offer to the Lord holocausts free cost.
²⁵于是达味为那块地付给敖尔难六百「协刻耳」重的金子。	²⁵So David gave to Ornan for the place, six hundred sicles of gold of just weight.
²⁶达味在那里为上主建立了一座祭坛，奉献了全燔祭与和平祭，呼求了上主，上主由天上垂听了他，使火降在全燔祭坛上，	²⁶And he built there an altar to the Lord: and he offered holocausts, and peace offerings, and he called upon the Lord, and he heard him by sending fire from heaven upon the altar of the holocaust.
²⁷并命天使将刀收入鞘中。	²⁷And the Lord commanded the angel: and he put up his sword again into the sheath.
²⁸那时，达味见上主在耶步斯人敖尔难的禾场上垂听了他，就在那里献了祭。──	²⁸And David seeing that the Lord had heard him in the threshingfloor of Oman the Jebusite, forthwith offered victims there.
²⁹梅瑟在旷野所造的会幕和全燔祭坛，那时虽都在基贝红高处；	²⁹But the tabernacle of the Lord, which Moses made in the desert, and the altar of holocausts, was at that time in the high place of Gabaon.
³⁰但达味不敢前去求问天主，因为害怕上主使者的刀。	³⁰And David could not go to the altar there to pray to God: for he was seized with an exceeding great fear, seeing the sword of the angel of the Lord.
