2：14押尼珥对约押说，让少年人起来，在我们面前戏耍吧。约押说，可以。
And Abner said to Joab； Let the young men now arise； and play before us。 And Joab said； Let them arise。
2：15就按着定数起来，属扫罗儿子伊施波设的便雅悯人过去十二名，大卫的仆人也过去十二名，
Then there arose and went over by number twelve of Benjamin； which pertained to Ishbosheth the son of Saul； and twelve of the servants of David。
2：16彼此揪头，用刀刺肋，一同仆倒。所以，那地叫作希利甲哈素林，就在基遍。
And they caught every one his fellow by the head； and thrust his sword in his fellow's side； so they fell down together： wherefore that place was called Helkathhazzurim； which is in Gibeon。
2：17那日的战事凶猛，押尼珥和以色列人败在大卫的仆人面前。
And there was a very sore battle that day； and Abner was beaten； and the men of Israel； before the servants of David。
2：18在那里有洗鲁雅的三个儿子，约押，亚比筛，亚撒黑。亚撒黑脚快如野鹿般。
And there were three sons of Zeruiah there； Joab； and Abishai； and Asahel： and Asahel was as light of foot as a wild roe。
2：19亚撒黑追赶押尼珥，直追赶他不偏左右。
And Asahel pursued after Abner； and in going he turned not to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner。
2：20押尼珥回头说，你是亚撒黑吗。回答说，是。
Then Abner looked behind him； and said； Art thou Asahel？ And he answered； I am。
2：21押尼珥对他说，你或转向左转向右，拿住一个少年人，剥去他的战衣。亚撒黑却不肯转开不追赶他。
And Abner said to him； Turn thee aside to thy right hand or to thy left； and lay thee hold on one of the young men； and take thee his armour。 But Asahel would not turn aside from following of him。
2：22押尼珥又对亚撒黑说，你转开不追赶我吧。我何必杀你呢。若杀你，有什么脸见你哥哥约押呢。
And Abner said again to Asahel； Turn thee aside from following me： wherefore should I smite thee to the ground？ how then should I hold up my face to Joab thy brother？
2：23亚撒黑仍不肯转开。故此，押尼珥就用枪？？刺入他的肚腹，甚至枪从背后透出，亚撒黑就在那里仆倒而死。众人赶到亚撒黑仆倒而死的地方，就都站住。
Howbeit he refused to turn aside： wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear smote him under the fifth rib； that the spear came out behind him； and he fell down there； and died in the same place： and it came to pass； that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still。
2：24约押和亚比筛追赶押尼珥，日落的时候，到了通基遍旷野的路旁，基亚对面的亚玛山。
Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner： and the sun went down when they were e to the hill of Ammah； that lieth before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon。
2：25便雅悯人聚集，跟随押尼珥站在一个山顶上。
And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner； and became one troop； and stood on the top of an hill。
2：26押尼珥呼叫约押说，刀剑岂可永远杀人吗。你岂不知终久必有苦楚吗。你要等何时才叫百姓回去，不追赶弟兄呢。
Then Abner called to Joab； and said； Shall the sword devour for ever？ knowest thou not that it will be bitterness in the latter end？ how long shall it be then； ere thou bid the people return from following their brethren？
2：27约押说，我指着永生的神起誓，你若不说戏耍的那句话，今日早晨百姓就回去，不追赶弟兄了。
And Joab said； As God liveth； unless thou hadst spoken； surely then in the morning the people had gone up every one from following his brother。
2：28于是约押吹角，众民就站住，不再追赶以色列人，也不再打仗了。
So Joab blew a trumpet； and all the people stood still； and pursued after Israel no more； neither fought they any more。
2：29押尼珥和跟随他的人整夜经过亚拉巴，过约旦河，走过毕伦，到了玛哈念。
And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plain； and passed over Jordan； and went through all Bithron； and they came to Mahanaim。
2：30约押追赶押尼珥回来，聚集众民，见大卫的仆人中缺少了十九个人和亚撒黑。
And Joab returned from following Abner： and when he had gathered all the people together； there lacked of David's servants nineteen men and Asahel。
2：31但大卫的仆人杀了便雅悯人和跟随押尼珥的人，共三百六十名。
But the servants of David had smitten of Benjamin； and of Abner's men； so that three hundred and threescore men died。
2：32众人将亚撒黑送到伯利恒，葬在他父亲的坟墓里。约押和跟随他的人走了一夜，天亮的时候到了希伯仑。
And they took up Asahel； and buried him in the sepulchre of his father； which was in Bethlehem。 And Joab and his men went all night； and they came to Hebron at break of day。
旧约 撒母耳记下（2 Samuel） 第 3 章 （ 本篇共有 24 章 ） 7上一章 下一章8 目录
3：1扫罗家和大卫家争战许久。大卫家日见强盛。扫罗家日见衰弱。
Now there was long war between the house of Saul and the house of David： but David waxed stronger and stronger； and the house of Saul waxed weaker and weaker。
3：2大卫在希伯仑得了几个儿子，长子暗嫩是耶斯列人亚希暖所生的。
And unto David were sons born in Hebron： and his firstborn was Amnon； of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess；
3：3次子基利押（基利押在历代上三章一节作但以利）是作过迦密人拿八的妻亚比该所生的。三子押沙龙是基述王达买的女儿玛迦所生的。
And his second； Chileab； of Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite； and the third； Absalom the son of Maacah the daughter of Talmai king of Geshur；
3：4四子亚多尼雅是哈及所生的。五子示法提雅是亚比她所生的。
And the fourth； Adonijah the son of Haggith； and the fifth； Shephatiah the son of Abital；
3：5六子以特念是大卫的妻以格拉所生的。大卫这六个儿子都是在希伯仑生的。
And the sixth； Ithream； by Eglah David's wife。 These were born to David in Hebron。
3：6扫罗家和大卫家争战的时候，押尼珥在扫罗家大有权势。
And it came to pass； while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David； that Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul。
3：7扫罗有一妃嫔，名叫利斯巴，是爱亚的女儿。一日，伊施波设对押尼珥说，你为什么与我父的妃嫔同房呢。
And Saul had a concubine； whose name was Rizpah； the daughter of Aiah： and Ishbosheth said to Abner； Wherefore hast thou gone in unto my father's concubine？
3：8押尼珥因伊施波设的话就甚发怒，说，我岂是犹大的狗头呢。我恩待你父扫罗的家和他的弟兄，朋友，不将你交在大卫手里，今日你竟为这妇人责备我吗。
Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth； and said； Am I a dog's head； which against Judah do shew kindness this day unto the house of Saul thy father； to his brethren； and to his friends； and have not delivered thee into the hand of David； that thou chargest me to day with a fault concerning this woman？
3：9*
So do God to Abner； and more also； except； as the LORD hath sworn to David； even so I do to him；
3：10我若不照着耶和华起誓应许大卫的话行，废去扫罗的位，建立大卫的位，使他治理以色列和犹大，从但直到别是巴，愿神重重地降罚与我。
To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul； and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah； from Dan even to Beersheba。
3：11伊施波设惧怕押尼珥，不敢回答一句。
And he could not answer Abner a word again； because he feared him。
3：12押尼珥打发人去见大卫，替他说，这国归谁呢。又说，你与我立约，我必帮助你，使以色列人都归服你。
And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf； saying； Whose is the land？ saying also； Make thy league with me； and； behold； my hand shall be with thee； to bring about all Israel unto thee。
3：13大卫说，好。我与你立约。但有一件，你来见我面的时候，若不将扫罗的女儿米甲带来，必不得见我的面。
And he said； Well； I will make a league with thee： but one thing I require of thee； that is； Thou shalt not see my face； except thou first bring Michal Saul's daughter； when thou est to see my face。
3：14大卫就打发人去见扫罗的儿子伊施波设，说，你要将我的妻米甲归还我。她是我从前用一百非利士人的阳皮所聘定的。
And David sent messengers to Ishbosheth Saul's son； saying； Deliver me my wife Michal； which I espoused to me for an hundred foreskins of the Philistines。
3：15伊施波设就打发人去，将米甲从拉亿的儿子，她丈夫帕铁那里接回来。
And Ishbosheth sent； and took her from her husband； even from Phaltiel the son of Laish。
3：16米甲的丈夫跟着她，一面走一面哭，直跟到巴户琳。押尼珥说，你回去吧。帕铁就回去了。
And her husband went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim。 Then said Abner unto him； Go； return。 And he returned。
3：17押尼珥对以色列长老说，从前你们愿意大卫作王治理你们，
And Abner had munication with the elders of Israel； saying； Ye sought for David in times past to be king over you：
3：18现在你们可以照心愿而行。因为耶和华曾论到大卫说，我必藉我仆人大卫的手，救我民以色列脱离非利士人和众仇敌的手。
Now then do it： for the LORD hath spoken of David； saying； By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines； and out of the hand of all their enemies。
3：19押尼珥也用这话说给便雅悯人听，又到希伯仑，将以色列人和便雅悯全家一切所喜悦的事说给大卫听。
And Abner also spake in the ears of Benjamin： and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel； and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin。
3：20押尼珥带着二十个人来到希伯仑见大卫，大卫就为押尼珥和他带来的人设摆筵席。
So Abner came to David to Hebron； and twenty men with him。 And David made Abner and the men that were with him a feast。
3：21押尼珥对大卫说，我要起身去招聚以色列众人来见我主我王，与你立约，你就可以照着心愿作王。于是大卫送押尼珥去，押尼珥就平平安安地去了。
And Abner said unto David； I will arise and go； and will gather all Israel unto my lord the king； that they may make a league with thee； and that
