So Saul inquired of the LORD, but the LORD did not answer him– not by dreams nor by Urim nor by the prophets.

扫罗求问耶和华，耶和华却不藉梦，或乌陵，或先知回答他。

扫罗求问耶和华，耶和华却不藉梦，或乌陵，或先知回答他。

扫罗求问耶和华，耶和华却不藉梦，或乌陵，或先知回答他。

就求问耶和华，但耶和华没有借着梦、乌陵或先知回答他。

就求問耶和華，但耶和華沒有藉著夢、烏陵或先知回答他。

掃羅求問耶和華，耶和華卻沒有藉著夢，或烏陵，或先知回答他。

掃羅求問永恆主，永恆主卻沒有藉着夢，沒有藉着烏陵，也沒有藉着神言人而回答他。

掃羅求問耶和華，耶和華卻沒有藉著夢，或烏陵，或先知回應他。

詢於耶和華、耶和華不以夢與烏陵先知答之、

問於耶和華、耶和華不答、亦不以夢寐、烏陵、先知而示。

掃羅問於主、主不之應、又祈夢、問烏陵、問先知、俱不得指示、

He inquired of the Lord, but the Lord did not answer him by dreams or Urim or prophets.

He asked the Lord for advice. But the Lord didn’t answer him through dreams or prophets. He didn’t answer him when Saul had the priest cast lots by using the Urim.

And when Saul inquired of the Lord, the Lord did not answer him, either by dreams, or by Urim, or by prophets.

He asked the Lord what he should do, but the Lord refused to answer him, either by dreams or by sacred lots or by the prophets.

He inquired of the LORD, but the LORD did not answer him in dreams or by the Urim or by the prophets.

So Saul inquired of the Lord, but the Lord did not answer him, either in dreams, or by the Urim, or by the prophets.

And when Saul inquired of the Lord, the Lord did not answer him, either by dreams or by Urim or by the prophets.

And when Saul inquired of Jehovah, Jehovah answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.

He inquired of the Lord, but the Lord did not answer him in dreams or by the Urim or by the prophets.

And when Saul enquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets.

When Saul inquired of Yahweh, Yahweh didn’t answer him by dreams, by Urim, or by prophets.

The LORD said,“ Hear now my words: If there is a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known to him in a vision; I will speak with him in a dream.

So Saul asked God,“ Should I go down after the Philistines? Will you deliver them into the hand of Israel?” But he did not answer him that day.

And he will stand before Eleazar the priest, who will seek counsel for him before the LORD by the decision of the Urim. At his command they will go out, and at his command they will come in, he and all the Israelites with him, the whole community.”

Her city gates have fallen to the ground; he smashed to bits the bars that lock her gates. Her king and princes were taken into exile; there is no more guidance available. As for her prophets, they no longer receive a vision from the Lord.י( Yod)

Of Levi he said: Your Thummim and Urim belong to your godly one, whose authority you challenged at Massah, and with whom you argued at the waters of Meribah.

“ You are to put the Urim and the Thummim into the breastpiece of decision; and they are to be over Aaron’s heart when he goes in before the LORD. Aaron is to bear the decisions of the Israelites over his heart before the LORD continually.

God spoke to Israel in a vision during the night and said,“ Jacob, Jacob!” He replied,“ Here I am!”He said,“ I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there.I will go down with you to Egypt and I myself will certainly bring you back from there. Joseph will close your eyes.”

When he had contemplated this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said,“ Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

and had a dream. He saw a stairway erected on the earth with its top reaching to the heavens. The angels of God were going up and coming down itand the LORD stood at its top. He said,“ I am the LORD, the God of your grandfather Abraham and the God of your father Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the ground you are lying on.Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west, east, north, and south. All the families of the earth will pronounce blessings on one another using your name and that of your descendants.I am with you! I will protect you wherever you go and will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I promised you!”

you ask and do not receive because you ask wrongly, so you can spend it on your passions.

The Proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:To learn wisdom and moral instruction, and to discern wise counsel.To receive moral instruction in skillful living, in righteousness, justice, and equity.To impart shrewdness to the morally naive, and a discerning plan to the young person.( Let the wise also hear and gain instruction, and let the discerning acquire guidance!)To discern the meaning of a proverb and a parable, the sayings of the wise and their riddles.Fearing the LORD is the beginning of moral knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.Listen, my child, to the instruction from your father, and do not forsake the teaching from your mother.For they will be like an elegant garland on your head, and like pendants around your neck.My child, if sinners try to entice you, do not consent!If they say,“ Come with us! We will lie in wait to shed blood; we will ambush an innocent person capriciously.We will swallow them alive like Sheol, those full of vigor like those going down to the Pit.We will seize all kinds of precious wealth; we will fill our houses with plunder.Join with us! We will all share equally in what we steal.”My child, do not go down their way, withhold yourself from their path;for they are eager to inflict harm, and they hasten to shed blood.Surely it is futile to spread a net in plain sight of any bird,but these men lie in wait for their own blood, they ambush their own lives!Such are the ways of all who gain profit unjustly; it takes away the life of those who obtain it!Wisdom calls out in the street, she shouts loudly in the plazas;at the head of the noisy streets she calls, in the entrances of the gates in the city she utters her words:“ How long will you simpletons love naiveté? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?If only you will respond to my rebuke, then I will pour out my thoughts to you and I will make my words known to you.However, because I called but you refused to listen, because I stretched out my hand but no one paid attention,because you neglected all my advice, and did not comply with my rebuke,so I myself will laugh when disaster strikes you, I will mock when what you dread comes,when what you dread comes like a whirlwind, and disaster strikes you like a devastating storm, when distressing trouble comes on you.Then they will call to me, but I will not answer; they will diligently seek me, but they will not find me.Because they hated moral knowledge, and did not choose to fear the LORD,they did not comply with my advice, they spurned all my rebuke.Therefore they will eat from the fruit of their way, and they will be stuffed full of their own counsel.For the waywardness of the simpletons will kill them, and the careless ease of fools will destroy them.But the one who listens to me will live in security, and will be at ease from the dread of harm.

“ For God speaks, the first time in one way, the second time in another, though a person does not perceive it.In a dream, a night vision, when deep sleep falls on people as they sleep in their beds.Then he gives a revelation to people, and terrifies them with warnings,

We do not see any signs of God’s presence; there are no longer any prophets and we have no one to tell us how long this will last.

We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is devout and does his will, God listens to him.

Do not boast about tomorrow; for you do not know what a day may bring forth.Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; someone else, and not your own lips.A stone is heavy and sand is weighty, but vexation by a fool is more burdensome than the two of them.Wrath is cruel and anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?Better is open rebuke than hidden love.Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are excessive.The one whose appetite is satisfied loathes honey, but to the hungry mouth every bitter thing is sweet.Like a bird that wanders from its nest, so is a person who wanders from his home.Ointment and incense make the heart rejoice, likewise the sweetness of one’s friend from sincere counsel.Do not forsake your friend and your father’s friend, and do not enter your brother’s house in the day of your disaster; a neighbor nearby is better than a brother far away.Be wise, my son, and make my heart glad, so that I may answer anyone who taunts me.A shrewd person sees danger and hides himself, but the naive keep right on going and suffer for it.Take a man’s garment when he has given security for a stranger, and when he gives surety for a stranger, hold him in pledge.If someone blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be counted as a curse to him.A continual dripping on a rainy day and a contentious wife are alike.Whoever hides her hides the wind or grasps oil with his right hand.As iron sharpens iron, so a person sharpens his friend.The one who tends a fig tree will eat its fruit, and whoever takes care of his master will be honored.As in water the face is reflected as a face, so a person’s heart reflects the person.As Death and Destruction are never satisfied, so the eyes of a person are never satisfied.As the crucible is for silver and the furnace is for gold, so a person is proved by the praise he receives.If you should pound the fool in the mortar among the grain with the pestle, his foolishness would not depart from him.Pay careful attention to the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds,for riches do not last forever, nor does a crown last from generation to generation.When the hay is removed and new grass appears, and the grass from the hills is gathered in,the lambs will be for your clothing, and the goats will be for the price of a field.And there will be enough goat’s milk for your food, for the food of your household, and for the sustenance of your servant girls.The wicked person flees when there is no one pursuing, but the righteous person is as confident as a lion.When a country is rebellious it has many princes, but by someone who is discerning and knowledgeable order is maintained.A poor person who oppresses the weak is like a driving rain without food.Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but those who keep the law contend with them.Evil people do not understand justice, but those who seek the LORD understand it all.A poor person who walks in his integrity is better than one who is perverse in his ways even though he is rich.The one who keeps the law is a discerning child, but a companion of gluttons brings shame to his parents.The one who increases his wealth by increasing interest gathers it for someone who is gracious to the needy.The one who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.The one who leads the upright astray in an evil way will himself fall into his own pit, but the blameless will inherit what is good.A rich person is wise in his own eyes, but a discerning poor person can evaluate him properly.When the righteous rejoice, great is the glory, but when the wicked rise to power, people are sought out.The one who covers his transgressions will not prosper, but whoever confesses them and forsakes them will find mercy.Blessed is the one who is always cautious, but whoever hardens his heart will fall into evil.Like a roaring lion or a roving bear, so is a wicked ruler over a poor people.The prince who is a great oppressor lacks wisdom, but the one who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.The one who is tormented by the murder of another will flee to the pit; let no one support him.The one who walks blamelessly will be delivered, but whoever is perverse in his ways will fall at once.The one who works his land will be satisfied with food, but whoever chases daydreams will have his fill of poverty.A faithful person will have an abundance of blessings, but the one who hastens to gain riches will not go unpunished.To show partiality is terrible, for a person will transgress over the smallest piece of bread.The stingy person hastens after riches and does not know that poverty will overtake him.The one who reproves another will in the end find more favor than the one who flatters with the tongue.The one who robs his father and mother and says,“ There is no transgression,” is a companion to the one who destroys.The greedy person stirs up dissension, but the one who trusts in the LORD will prosper.The one who trusts in his own heart is a fool, but the one who walks in wisdom will escape.The one who gives to the poor will not lack, but whoever shuts his eyes to them will receive many curses.When the wicked gain control, people hide themselves, but when they perish, the righteous increase.

Let the prophet who has had a dream go ahead and tell his dream. Let the person who has received my message report that message faithfully. What is like straw cannot compare to what is like grain! I, the LORD, affirm it!

In the seventh year, in the fifth month, on the tenth of the month, some of the elders of Israel came to seek the LORD, and they sat down in front of me.The word of the LORD came to me:“ Son of man, speak to the elders of Israel, and tell them:‘ This is what the sovereign LORD says: Are you coming to seek me? As surely as I live, I will not allow you to seek me, declares the sovereign LORD.’

So Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD and did not obey the LORD’s instructions; he even tried to conjure up underworld spirits.He did not seek the LORD’s guidance, so the LORD killed him and transferred the kingdom to David son of Jesse.
