出谷纪:Chapter 2

出谷纪	Exodus
¹有肋未家族的一个男子娶了肋未家族的一个女人为妻。	¹After this there went a man of the house of Levi; and took a wife of his own kindred.
²这女人怀孕生了一个儿子，见他俊美，就把他藏了三个月。	²And she conceived, and bore a son; and seeing him a goodly child hid him three months.
³以后不能再藏了，就拿了一个蒲草筐子，涂上沥青和石漆，把孩子放在里面，将筐放在尼罗河边的芦苇丛中。	³And when she could hide him no longer, she took a basket made of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and pitch: and put the little babe therein, and laid him in the sedges by the river's brink,
⁴孩子的姐姐远远的站着，想知道孩子究竟怎样。	⁴His sister standing afar off, and taking notice what would be done.
⁵当时法郎的一个公主下到尼罗河边洗澡，使女们在河边上徘徊。公主发见芦苇丛中那个筐子，就吩咐自己的使女将筐子取来。	⁵And behold the daughter of Pharao came down to wash herself in the river: and her maids walked by the river's brink. And when she saw the basket in the sedges, she sent one of her maids for it: and when it was brought,
⁶她打开一看，见有一个孩子正在哭涕，就动了可怜他的心说：「这必是一个希伯来人的孩子。」	⁶She opened it and seeing within it an infant crying, having compassion on it she said: This is one of the babes of the Hebrews.
⁷孩子的姐姐就对法郎的公主说：「你愿意我去从希伯来妇女中给你请一个奶妈，为你乳养这个孩子吗？」	⁷And the child's sister said to her Shall I go and call to thee a Hebrew woman, to nurse the babe?
⁸法郎的公主回答说：「你去罢！」少女便去叫了孩子的母亲来。	⁸She answered: Go. The maid went and called her mother.
⁹法郎的公主对她说：「你将这孩子抱去，为我乳养他，我必给你工钱。」那妇人就接过去，乳养这个孩子。	⁹And Pharao's daughter said to her. Take this child and nurse him for me: I will give thee thy wages. The woman took, and nursed the child: and when he was grown up, she delivered him to Pharao's daughter.
¹⁰孩子长大了，那妇人就把他带到公主那里；公主遂收他作自己的儿子，给他起名叫梅瑟，说：「因为我从水里拉出了他。」	¹⁰And she adopted him for a son, and called him Moses, saying: Because I took him out of the water.
¹¹过了许久，梅瑟已经长大，有一次出去探望自己的同胞，看见他们作苦工，又见一个埃及人打他的一个同胞希伯来人；	¹¹In those days after Moses was grown up, he went out to his brethren: and saw their affliction, and an Egyptian striking one of the Hebrews his brethren.
¹²他向四面一望，见没有人，便将那埃及人打死，将他埋在沙土中。	¹²And when he had looked about this way and that way, and saw no one there, he slew the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
¹³第二天他又出去，见两个希伯来人打架，就对那无理的一方说：「你为什么打你同族的人？」	¹³And going out the next day, he saw two Hebrews quarrelling: and he said to him that did the wrong: Why strikest thou thy neighbour?
¹⁴那人回答说：「谁立了你作我们的首领和判官？难道你想杀我，像杀那埃及人一样吗？」梅瑟就害怕了，心里想：「那事一定叫人知道了！」	¹⁴But he answered: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us? Wilt thou kill me, as thou didst yesterday kill the Egyptian? Moses feared, and said: How is this come to be known?
¹⁵法郎听说这事，就想杀死梅瑟；而梅瑟却离开法郎逃走，去了米德杨地，坐在井旁。	¹⁵And Pharao heard of this word and sought to kill Moses: but he fled from his sight, and abode in the land of Madian, and he sat down by a well.
¹⁶米德杨的司祭有七个女儿，她们来打水，灌满水槽，要饮父亲的羊群。	¹⁶And the priest of Madian had seven daughters, who came to draw water: and when the troughs were filled, desired to water their father's flocks.
¹⁷别的牧童来了，赶走了她们；梅瑟便起来保护了她们，也饮了她们的羊。	¹⁷And the shepherds came and drove them away: and Moses arose, and defending the maids, watered their sheep.
¹⁸她们回到父亲勒乌耳那里，父亲问她们说：「你们今天为什么回来的这么快？」	¹⁸And when they returned to Raguel their father, he said to them: Why are ye come sooner than usual?
¹⁹她们回答说：「有一个埃及人救我们摆脱了牧童的手，还给我们打水饮了羊群。」	¹⁹They answered: A man of Egypt delivered us from the hands of the shepherds: and he drew water also with us, and gave the sheep to drink.
²⁰他对女儿们说：「他在那里？你们为什么撇下他？去请他来吃饭！」	²⁰But he said: Where is he? why have you let the man go? call him that he may eat bread.
²¹于是梅瑟决定住在那人那里，那人将自己的女儿漆颇辣给了梅瑟为妻。	²¹And Moses swore that he would dwell with him. And he took Sephora his daughter to wife:
²²她生了一个儿子，梅瑟给他起名叫革尔熊，因为他说：「我在外方作了旅客。」	²²And she bore him a son, whom he called Gersam, saying: I have been a stranger in a foreign country. And she bore another, whom he called Eliezer, saying: For the God of my father, my helper hath delivered me out of the hand of Pharao.
²³过了很久，埃及王死了。那时以色列子民由于劳苦工作，都叹息哀号：他们因劳役所发出的求救声，升到天主面前。	²³Now after a long time the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel groaning, cried out because of the works: and their cry went up unto God from the works.
²⁴天主听见了他们的哀号，就记起了他与亚巴郎、依撒格和雅各伯所立的盟约。	²⁴And he heard their groaning, and remembered the covenant which he made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
²⁵天主遂眷顾了以色列子民，特别垂念他们。	²⁵And the Lord looked upon the children of Israel, and he knew them.
