1 Samuel 22
1 So David went away from there and took cover in a strong place at Adullam; and his brothers and all his father's people, hearing of it, went down to him there.
Lalu Daud pergi dari sana dan melarikan diri ke gua Adulam. Ketika saudara-saudaranya dan seluruh keluarganya mendengar hal itu, pergilah mereka ke sana mendapatkan dia.
2 And everyone who was in trouble, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was bitter in soul, came together to him, and he became captain over them: about four hundred men were joined to him.
Berhimpunlah juga kepadanya setiap orang yang dalam kesukaran, setiap orang yang dikejar-kejar tukang piutang, setiap orang yang sakit hati, maka ia menjadi pemimpin mereka. Bersama-sama dengan dia ada kira-kira empat ratus orang.
3 And from there David went to Mizpeh in the land of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab, Let my father and mother come and make their living-place with you till it is clear to me what God will do for me.
Dari sana Daud pergi ke Mizpa di Moab dan berkata kepada raja negeri Moab: "Izinkanlah ayahku dan ibuku tinggal padamu, sampai aku tahu, apa yang dilakukan Allah kepadaku."
4 And he took them to the king of Moab and they went on living with him while David was in his safe place.
Lalu diantarkannyalah mereka kepada raja negeri Moab, dan mereka tinggal bersama dia selama Daud ada di kubu gunung.
5 And the prophet Gad said to David, Do not go on living in this place but go into the land of Judah. Then David went away and came to the woodland of Hereth.
Tetapi Gad, nabi itu, berkata kepada Daud: "Janganlah tinggal di kubu gunung itu, pergilah dan pulanglah ke tanah Yehuda." Lalu pergilah Daud dan masuk ke hutan Keret.
6 And news was given to Saul that David had been seen, and the men who were with him: now Saul was in Gibeah, seated under the tree in the high place, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were in their places before him.
Hal itu terdengar oleh Saul, sebab Daud dan orang-orang yang bersama-sama dengan dia telah diketahui tempatnya. Adapun Saul ada di Gibea, sedang duduk di bawah pohon tamariska di bukit, dengan tombaknya di tangan dan semua pegawainya berdiri di dekatnya.
7 Then Saul said to his servants who were there about him, Give ear now, you Benjamites; will the son of Jesse give to every one of you fields and vine-gardens, will he make you all captains of hundreds and captains of thousands;
Lalu berkatalah Saul kepada para pegawainya yang berdiri di dekatnya: "Cobalah dengar, ya orang-orang Benyamin! Apakah anak Isai itu juga akan memberikan kepada kamu sekalian ladang dan kebun anggur, apakah ia akan mengangkat kamu sekalian menjadi kepala atas pasukan seribu dan atas pasukan seratus,
8 That all of you have made designs against me, and not one of you gave me word when my son made an agreement with the son of Jesse, and not one of you has pity for me or has made my eyes open to the fact that my servant has been moved by my son against me, as at this day?
sehingga kamu sekalian mengadakan persepakatan melawan aku dan tidak ada seorangpun yang menyatakan kepadaku, bahwa anakku mengikat diri dengan anak Isai itu? Tidak ada seorangpun dari kamu yang cemas karena aku, atau yang menyatakan kepadaku, bahwa anakku telah menghasut pegawaiku melawan aku menjadi penghadang seperti sekarang ini."
9 Then Doeg, the Edomite, who was by the side of the servants of Saul, in answer said, I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub.
Lalu menjawablah Doeg, orang Edom itu, yang berdiri dekat para pegawai Saul, katanya: "Telah kulihat, bahwa anak Isai itu datang ke Nob, kepada Ahimelekh bin Ahitub.
10 And he got directions from the Lord for him, and gave him food, and put in his hand the sword of Goliath the Philistine.
Ia menanyakan TUHAN bagi Daud dan memberikan bekal kepadanya; juga pedang Goliat, orang Filistin itu, diberikannya kepadanya."
11 Then the king sent for Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and for all the men of his father's family who were priests in Nob: and they all came to the king.
Lalu raja menyuruh memanggil Ahimelekh bin Ahitub, imam itu, bersama-sama dengan seluruh keluarganya, para imam yang di Nob; dan datanglah sekaliannya menghadap raja.
12 And Saul said, Give ear now, O son of Ahitub. And answering he said, Here I am, my lord.
Kata Saul: "Cobalah dengar, ya anak Ahitub!" Jawabnya: "Ya, tuanku."
13 And Saul said to him, Why have you made designs against me with the son of Jesse, giving him food and a sword and getting directions from the Lord for him, and helping him to take up arms against me, and to be on the watch to make a secret attack on me as he is doing now?
Kemudian bertanyalah Saul kepadanya: "Mengapa kamu mengadakan persepakatan melawan aku, engkau dengan anak Isai itu, dengan memberikan roti dan pedang kepadanya, menanyakan Allah baginya, sehingga ia bangkit melawan aku menjadi penghadang seperti sekarang ini?"
14 Then Ahimelech answering said to the king, Who among all your servants is so true to you as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and is a captain of your armed men, and has a place of honour in your house?
Lalu Ahimelekh menjawab raja: "Tetapi siapakah di antara segala pegawaimu yang dapat dipercaya seperti Daud, apalagi ia menantu raja dan kepala para pengawalmu, dan dihormati dalam rumahmu?
15 Is this the first time I have got directions from God for him? Far be the thought! let the king make no such statement against his servant or my father's family, for your servant has no knowledge, great or small, of this thing.
Bukan ini pertama kali aku menanyakan Allah bagi dia. Sekali-kali tidak! Janganlah kiranya raja melontarkan tuduhan kepada hambamu ini, bahkan kepada seluruh keluargaku, sebab hambamu ini tidak tahu apa-apa tentang semuanya itu, baik tentang perkara kecil maupun perkara besar."
16 And the king said, You will certainly be put to death, Ahimelech, you and all your father's family.
Tetapi raja berkata: "Engkau mesti dibunuh, Ahimelekh, engkau dan seluruh keluargamu."
17 Then the king said to the runners who were waiting near him, Put the priests of the Lord to death; because they are on David's side, and having knowledge of his flight, did not give me word of it. But the king's servants would not put out their hands to make an attack on the Lord's priests.
Lalu raja memerintahkan kepada bentara yang berdiri di dekatnya: "Majulah dan bunuhlah para imam TUHAN itu sebab mereka membantu Daud; sebab walaupun mereka tahu, bahwa ia melarikan diri, mereka tidak memberitahukan hal itu kepadaku." Tetapi para pegawai raja tidak mau mengangkat tangannya untuk memarang imam-imam TUHAN itu.
18 Then the king said to Doeg, You are to put the priests to death. And Doeg the Edomite, turning on the priests and attacking them, put to death that day eighty-five men who took up the ephod.
Lalu berkatalah raja kepada Doeg: "Majulah engkau dan paranglah para imam itu." Maka majulah Doeg, orang Edom itu, lalu memarang para imam itu. Ia membunuh pada hari itu delapan puluh lima orang, yang memakai baju efod dari kain lenan.
19 And Nob, the town of the priests, he put to the sword, all the men and women, children and babies at the breast, and oxen and asses and sheep.
Juga penduduk Nob, kota imam itu, dibunuh raja dengan mata pedang; laki-laki maupun perempuan, kanak-kanak maupun anak yang menyusu, pula lembu, keledai dan domba dibunuhnya dengan mata pedang.
20 And Abiathar, one of the sons of Ahimelech, the son of Ahitub, got away and went in flight after David;
Tetapi seorang anak Ahimelekh bin Ahitub, namanya Abyatar luput; ia melarikan diri menjadi pengikut Daud.
21 And gave him the news of how Saul had put to death the Lord's priests.
Ketika Abyatar memberitahukan kepada Daud, bahwa Saul telah membunuh para imam TUHAN,
22 And David said to Abiathar, I was certain that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would take the news to Saul: I am responsible for the lives of all your father's family.
berkatalah Daud kepada Abyatar: "Memang pada hari itu juga ketika Doeg, orang Edom itu, ada di sana, aku telah tahu, bahwa pasti ia akan memberitahukannya kepada Saul. Akulah sebab utama dari pada kematian seluruh keluargamu.
23 Keep here with me and have no fear; for he who has designs on my life has designs on yours: but with me you will be safe.
Tinggallah padaku, janganlah takut; sebab siapa yang ingin mencabut nyawamu, ia juga ingin mencabut nyawaku; di dekatku engkau aman."
