But Joab replied,“ May the Lord multiply his troops a hundred times over. My lord the king, are they not all my lord’s subjects? Why does my lord want to do this? Why should he bring guilt on Israel?”

Joab replied,“ May the Lord multiply his troops 100 times. King David, you are my master. Aren’t all the men under your control? Why would you want me to count them? Do you want to make Israel guilty?”

But Joab said,“ May the Lord add to his people a hundred times as many as they are! Are they not, my lord the king, all of them my lord’s servants? Why then should my lord require this? Why should it be a cause of guilt for Israel?”

But Joab replied,“ May the Lord increase the number of his people a hundred times over! But why, my lord the king, do you want to do this? Are they not all your servants? Why must you cause Israel to sin?”

And Joab answered,“ May the Lord make His people a hundred times more than they are. But, my Lord the king, are they not all my lord’s servants? Why then does my Lord require this thing? Why should he be a cause of guilt in Israel?”

And Joab said, Jehovah make his people a hundred times as many as they are: but, my lord the king, are they not all my lord’s servants? why doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of guilt unto Israel?

耶和华啊，你增添我们的人口，增添我们的人口，扩张我们的疆界，你得到了荣耀。

人民众多，是君王的荣耀；没有臣民，君主必然败亡。

他们到以实各谷打探那地方，回来后竟动摇军心，使以色列人不敢进入耶和华所赐之地。那天耶和华发怒，起誓说，

因为耶罗波安犯罪作孽，使以色列人陷入罪中，耶和华必抛弃以色列。”

愿耶和华使你们和你们的后代人丁兴旺！

愿你们祖先的上帝耶和华使你们人数更增千倍，照祂的应许赐福给你们。

我儿啊，不可这样，我听到在耶和华的子民中流传着你们的坏名声。

亚比米勒召见亚伯拉罕，对他说：“你为什么要害我们？我什么地方得罪了你？你竟使我和我的人民陷入大罪！你不该这样做。”

摩西对亚伦说：“这些百姓对你做了什么？你竟使他们陷入大罪中！”

你的后裔必多如海沙，你的子孙必像细沙一样不可胜数，他们的名号绝不会从我面前被铲除、被消灭。”

我们要刚强，为我们的人民和我们上帝的城邑而奋勇作战。愿耶和华成全祂自己的旨意！”
