The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists.

埃及人的心神必在里面耗尽。我必败坏他们的谋略。他们必求问偶像和念咒的、交鬼的、行巫术的。

Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had mourned for him and buried him in his own town of Ramah. Saul had expelled the mediums and spiritists from the land.

那时撒母耳已经死了，以色列众人为他哀哭，葬他在拉玛，就是在他本城里。扫罗曾在国内不容有交鬼的和行巫术的人。

When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?

有人对你们说：" 当求问那些交鬼的和行巫术的，就是声音绵蛮，言语微细的。" 你们便回答说：" 百姓不当求问自己的　神吗？岂可为活人求问死人呢？"

But the woman said to him, " Surely you know what Saul has done. He has cut off the mediums and spiritists from the land. Why have you set a trap for my life to bring about my death" ?

妇人对他说：" 你知道扫罗从国中剪除交鬼的和行巫术的。你为何陷害我的性命，使我死呢？"
