自从我领他们出埃及到现在,他们常常离弃我,侍奉其他众神。现在他们向你所行的,是照他们素来所行的。
自从我带他们出埃及上来那天到今天,他们已经离弃了我,并服务其他众神,他们也 是这样对你做的。
自从我领他们出埃及到如今,他们常常离弃我,侍奉别神。现在他们向你所行的,是照他们素来所行的。
According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.

也必把你们最好的田地、葡萄园、橄榄园给他的臣仆。
他又要拿走你们的田地,你们的葡萄园,你们的橄榄园,都是其中最好的,给他的众仆人。
也必取你们最好的田地、葡萄园、橄榄园赐给他的臣仆。
And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
- 15
你们的粮食和葡萄园所出的,他必把十分之一给他的官长和臣仆;
你们的粮食和葡萄园所出的种子的十分之一,他要给他的众官员和他的众仆人。

那日你们必因所选的王哀求,耶和华却不听你们。
你们到那天就会因你们为自己选的王而呼喊;到那天主不会听你们。
那时你们必因所选的王哀求耶和华,耶和华却不应允你们。”
And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
- 19
然而,百姓不愿意听撒母耳的声音,他们说,不,我们要一个王治理我们,
然而,人民拒绝听从撒姆尔的声音;他们说,不;我们就要一个王治理我们;
百姓竟不肯听撒母耳的话,说:“不然!我们定要一个王治理我们,
Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;
- 20
使我们像列国一样,有王审判我们,在我们前面行,为我们争战。
使我们也可以类似所有国家;有我们的王来审判我们,并在我们前面出去,又打我们的仗。
使我们像列国一样,有王治理我们,统领我们,为我们争战。”
That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles.
