非利士人将祭司和占卜的召了来，问他们说，我们向耶和华的约柜应当怎样行？请指示我们用何法将约柜送回原处。
- 6:3 And they said, If you send away the Ark of the God of Israel, do not send it away empty, but be sure to return Him a trespass offering. Then you will be healed, and it will be made known to you why His hand has not turned away from you.
-
他们说，你们若将以色列神的约柜送回去，不可空空的送去，必要给祂献赔罪的礼物，然后你们可以得痊愈，也可以知道祂的手为何不离开你们。
- 6:4 And they said, What is the trespass offering that we should return to Him? And they said, Five golden tumors and five golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines; for one plague was upon you all and upon your lords.
-
非利士人说，应当用什么献为赔罪的礼物呢？他们回答说，当照非利士人首领的数目，用五个金痔疮，五只金老鼠，因为在你们众人和你们首领的身上都是一样的灾。
- 6:5 Therefore you shall make images of your tumors and images of your mice that devastate the land, and you shall give glory to the God of Israel; perhaps He will lighten His hand on you and your gods and your land.
-
所以当制造你们痔疮的像，和你们那些毁坏地的老鼠的像，并要归荣耀给以色列的神，或者祂向你们和你们的神，并你们的地，把手放轻些。
- 6:6 Why then should you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When He had dealt severely with them, did they not let the people go, and they went?

- 6:9 Then watch: If it goes up toward its own border at Beth-shemesh, it is He who has done us this great harm. But if it does not, we will know that it was not His hand that struck us; it happened to us by chance.
-
你们要看看：车若直行以色列的境界上伯示麦去，这大灾就是耶和华降在我们身上的；若不然，便可以知道不是祂的手击打我们，是我们偶然遇见的。

-
牛在通往伯示麦的路上直行，走在一条大道上，一面走一面叫，不偏左右。非利士人的首领跟在后面，直到伯示麦的境界。
- 6:13 Now the people of Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley. And when they lifted up their eyes and saw the Ark, they rejoiced to see it.
-
伯示麦人正在谷中收割麦子，举目看见约柜，就欢欢喜喜的观看。
- 6:14 And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemeshite and stood still there. And there was a great stone there. And they split up the wood of the cart and offered up the cows as a burnt offering to Jehovah.
-
车到了伯示麦人约书亚的田间，就站住了。在那里有一块大石头。他们把车的木头劈了，将两只母牛献给耶和华为燔祭。
- 6:15 Then the Levites took down the Ark of Jehovah and the box that was with it, in which were the articles of gold; and they placed them on the great stone. And the men of Beth-shemesh offered up burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices that day to Jehovah.
-
利未人将耶和华的约柜和柜旁装金物的匣子拿下来，放在那块大石头上。当日伯示麦人将燔祭和平安祭献给耶和华。

- 6:18 And the gold mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines that belonged to the five lords, both of fortified cities and country villages, as far as the great stone on which they rested the Ark of Jehovah, which is there to this day, in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemeshite.
-
还有金老鼠，是照非利士人五个首领一切城邑的数目，包括坚固的城邑和无城墙的村庄，直到放耶和华约柜的大石头那里，这石头到今日还在伯示麦人约书亚的田间。
- 6:19 And He struck the men of Beth- shemesh because they looked into the Ark of Jehovah; and He struck seventy men among the people. And the people mourned because Jehovah struck the people with a great slaughter.
-
耶和华因伯示麦人观看祂的约柜，就击杀他们，共击杀了民中七十人。百姓因耶和华大大击杀他们，就哀哭了。
- 6:20 And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who can stand before Jehovah, this holy God? And to whom shall He go up from us?
-
伯示麦人说，谁能在耶和华这圣别的神面前站立得住呢？祂可以从我们这里上到谁那里去呢？
