2 Sa-mu-ên 4
Kinh Thánh Bản Truyền Thống ⇄ NET Bible
When Ish-bosheth the son of Saul heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he was very disheartened, and all Israel was afraid.
Now Saul’s son had two men who were in charge of raiding units; one was named Baanah and the other Recab. They were sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, who was a Benjaminite. (Beeroth is regarded as belonging to Benjamin,
for the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have remained there as resident foreigners until the present time.)
研读Người thừa kế còn lại của Sau-lơ — Ghi chú ngắn này giải thích lý do tại sao hoàng tộc của Sau-lơ không còn người thừa kế trưởng thành nào sau thời Ích-bô-sết. Mê-phi-bô-sết chỉ mới năm tuổi khi cha cậu là Giô-na-than qua đời. Sau này, Đa-vít đã bày tỏ lòng nhân từ đặc biệt đối với Mê-phi-bô-sết vì tình yêu dành cho Giô-na-than.(2SA 9:7)Now Saul’s son Jonathan had a son who was crippled in both feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan arrived from Jezreel. His nurse picked him up and fled, but in her haste to get away, he fell and was injured. Mephibosheth was his name.
Now the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite – Recab and Baanah – went at the hottest part of the day to the home of Ish-bosheth, as he was enjoying his midday rest.
They entered the house under the pretense of getting wheat and mortally wounded him in the stomach. Then Recab and his brother Baanah escaped.
They had entered the house while Ish-bosheth was resting on his bed in his bedroom. They mortally wounded him and then cut off his head. Taking his head, they traveled on the way of the Arabah all that night.
They brought the head of Ish-bosheth to David in Hebron, saying to the king, “Look! The head of Ish-bosheth son of Saul, your enemy who sought your life! The Lord has granted vengeance to my lord the king this day against Saul and his descendants!”
David replied to Recab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, “As surely as the Lord lives, who has delivered my life from all adversity,
研读Dư âm từ Xiếc-lác — Đa-vít nhớ lại kẻ người A-ma-léc đã mong đợi một phần thưởng vì báo tin Sau-lơ qua đời. Cũng như việc ông từng từ chối giành lấy quyền lực thông qua sự giết chóc khi đó, Đa-vít giờ đây bác bỏ việc ám sát chính trị. Ông từ chối coi sự phản nghịch là một ơn phước đến từ Đức Chúa Trời.(2SA 1:15)when someone told me that Saul was dead – even though he thought he was bringing good news – I seized him and killed him in Ziklag. That was the good news I gave to him!
Surely when wicked men have killed an innocent man as he slept in his own house, should I not now require his blood from your hands and remove you from the earth?”
研读Công lý công khai, không phải báo thù — Đa-vít xử tử những kẻ ám sát một cách công khai để chứng minh rằng ông không liên quan đến vụ sát hại Ích-bô-sết và sẽ không dung thứ cho bạo lực cơ hội. Việc chôn cất cái đầu của Ích-bô-sết trong mồ của Áp-ne cho thấy lòng tôn trọng vẫn được duy trì đối với nhà của Sau-lơ.So David issued orders to the soldiers and they put them to death. Then they cut off their hands and feet and hung them near the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in the tomb of Abner in Hebron.
