1 Chronicles 16
1 So they brought in the Arke of God, and set it in the middes of the Tabernacle that Dauid had pitched for it, and they offred burnt offrings and peace offrings before God.
Peti Perjanjian itu diletakkan di dalam kemah yang telah disediakan oleh Daud untuk Peti itu. Lalu mereka mempersembahkan kepada Allah kurban bakaran dan kurban perdamaian.
2 And when Dauid had made an ende of offering the burnt offering and the peace offerings, hee blessed the people in the Name of the Lord.
Setelah Daud selesai mempersembahkan kurban-kurban itu, ia memberkati rakyat atas nama TUHAN,
3 And he dealt to euery one of Israel both man and woman, to euery one a cake of breade, and a piece of flesh, and a bottel of wine.
lalu membagi-bagikan makanan kepada mereka semua. Setiap orang yang ada di situ baik laki-laki maupun wanita mendapat sepotong daging panggang, roti dan kue kismis.
4 And he appointed certaine of the Leuites to minister before the Arke of the Lord, and to rehearse and to thanke and prayse the Lord God of Israel:
Daud mengangkat beberapa orang Lewi untuk memimpin upacara ibadat kepada TUHAN, Allah Israel, di depan Peti Perjanjian itu, dengan nyanyian dan puji-pujian.
5 Asaph the chiefe, and next to him Zechariah, Ieiel, and Shemiramoth, and Iehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed Edom, euen Ieiel with instruments, violes and harpes, and Asaph to make a sound with cymbales,
Asaf dipilih sebagai pemimpin utama dan Zakharia wakilnya. Yeiel, Semiramot, Yehiel, Matica, Eliab, Benaya, Obed-Edom dan Yeiel ditugaskan untuk memainkan kecapi. Asaf ditugaskan memainkan simbal,
6 And Benaiah and Iahaziel Priestes, with trumpets continually before the Arke of the couenant of God.
dan dua orang imam, yaitu Benaya dan Yahaziel, ditugaskan untuk secara tetap meniup trompet di depan Peti Perjanjian itu.
7 Then at that time Dauid did appoint at the beginning to giue thankes to the Lord by the hand of Asaph and his brethren.
Itulah pertama kalinya Daud menugaskan Asaf dan rekan-rekannya untuk menyanyikan puji-pujian kepada TUHAN.
8 Praise the Lord and call vpon his Name: declare his workes among the people.
Bersyukurlah kepada TUHAN, wartakanlah kebesaran-Nya, ceritakanlah perbuatan-Nya di antara bangsa-bangsa.
9 Sing vnto him, sing praise vnto him, and talke of all his wonderfull workes.
Nyanyikanlah pujian bagi TUHAN, beritakanlah segala karya-Nya yang menakjubkan.
10 Reioyce in his holy Name: let the hearts of them that seeke the Lord reioyce.
Dialah TUHAN Yang Mahaesa; bersukacitalah, sebab kita milik-Nya; semua yang menyembah Dia hendaklah bergembira.
11 Seeke the Lord and his strength: seeke his face continually.
Mintalah kekuatan daripada-Nya, sembahlah Dia senantiasa.
12 Remember his marueilous workes that he hath done, his wonders, and the iudgements of his mouth,
Hai keturunan Yakub, hamba Allah! Hai keturunan Israel, umat pilihan-Nya! Ingatlah semua keajaiban yang dilakukan-Nya, jangan melupakan keputusan-keputusan-Nya.
13 O seede of Israel his seruant, O the children of Iaakob his chosen.
14 He is the Lord our God: his iudgements are throughout all the earth.
TUHAN adalah Allah kita, keputusan-Nya berlaku di seluruh dunia.
15 Remember his couenant for euer, and the worde, which hee commanded to a thousand generations:
Ia selalu ingat akan perjanjian-Nya, janji-Nya berlaku selama-lamanya.
16 Which he made with Abraham, and his othe to Izhak:
Perjanjian itu dibuat-Nya dengan Abraham, dan kemudian dengan Ishak,
17 And hath confirmed it to Iaakob for a Law, and to Israel for an euerlasting couenant,
lalu dikukuhkan dengan Yakub menjadi perjanjian yang kekal bagi umat Israel.
18 Saying, To thee will I giue the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.
Kata-Nya, "Tanah Kanaan akan Kuberikan kepadamu menjadi milik pusakamu."
19 When ye were fewe in number, yea, a very fewe, and strangers therein,
Dahulu umat TUHAN hidup sebagai orang asing di sana jumlah mereka sedikit saja.
20 And walked about from nation to nation, and from one kingdome to another people,
Mereka mengembara dari bangsa ke bangsa, pindah dari satu negeri ke negeri lainnya.
21 He suffered no man to do them wrong, but rebuked Kings for their sakes, saying,
Tetapi TUHAN tidak membiarkan siapa pun menindas mereka; demi mereka, raja-raja diperingatkan-Nya,
22 Touch not mine anoynted, and doe my Prophets no harme.
"Jangan mengganggu orang-orang pilihan-Ku, jangan berbuat jahat kepada nabi-nabi-Ku."
23 Sing vnto the Lord all the earth: declare his saluation from day to day.
Nyanyilah bagi TUHAN, hai bumi seluruhnya, setiap hari siarkanlah kabar gembira bahwa Ia telah menyelamatkan kita.
24 Declare his glory among the nations, and his wonderful workes among all people.
Ceritakan keagungan-Nya kepada bangsa-bangsa, dan perbuatan-perbuatan-Nya yang perkasa kepada umat manusia.
25 For the Lord is great and much to be praised, and hee is to bee feared aboue all gods.
Sebab besarlah TUHAN dan sangat terpuji; Ia harus ditakuti lebih dari segala dewa.
26 For all the gods of the people are idoles, but the Lord made the heauens.
Dewa-dewa bangsa lain hanya patung berhala tetapi TUHAN adalah pencipta angkasa raya.
27 Prayse and glory are before him: power and beautie are in his place.
Ia diliputi keagungan dan kemuliaan, rumah-Nya penuh kuasa dan sukacita.
28 Giue vnto the Lord, ye families of the people: giue vnto the Lord glory and power.
Pujilah TUHAN, hai umat manusia! Pujilah keagungan dan kekuatan-Nya.
29 Giue vnto the Lord ye glory of his Name: bring an offring and come before him, and worship the Lord in the glorious Sanctuarie.
Pujilah nama-Nya yang mulia, dan bawalah kurban ke dalam rumah-Nya. Sembahlah TUHAN dengan mengenakan pakaian ibadat!
30 Tremble ye before him, al the earth: surely the world shalbe stable and not moue.
Gemetarlah di hadapan-Nya, hai seluruh dunia! Bumi kukuh tidak tergoyahkan.
31 Let the heauens reioyce, and let the earth be glad, and let them say among the nations, The Lord reigneth.
Hai langit dan bumi, bergembiralah! Beritakanlah kepada bangsa-bangsa bahwa TUHAN itu Raja!
32 Let the sea roare, and all that therein is: Let the field be ioyfull and all that is in it.
Bergemuruhlah hai laut dan semua isinya! Bersukacitalah hai padang dan segala tanamannya!
33 Let the trees of the wood then reioyce at the presence of the Lord: for he commeth to iudge the earth.
Pohon-pohon di hutan akan bersorak-sorai sebab TUHAN telah datang untuk memerintah di bumi.
34 Prayse the Lord, for hee is good, for his mercie endureth for euer.
Bersyukurlah kepada TUHAN, sebab Ia baik; kasih-Nya kekal abadi.
35 And say ye, Saue vs, O God, our saluation, and gather vs, and deliuer vs from the heathen, that we may prayse thine holy Name, and glorie in thy praise.
Katakanlah, "Ya Allah, Penyelamat kami, selamatkanlah kami dari kekuasaan bangsa-bangsa dan kumpulkanlah kami kembali supaya kami dapat bersyukur dan memuji nama-Mu yang suci!"
36 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel for euer and euer: and let all people say, So be it, and praise the Lord.
Pujilah TUHAN, Allah Israel, sekarang dan selama-lamanya! Kemudian seluruh umat Israel berkata, "Amin", lalu mereka memuji TUHAN.
37 Then he left there before the Arke of the Lordes couenant Asaph and his brethren to minister continually before the Arke, that which was to be done euery day:
Kemudian Raja Daud menugaskan Asaf dan orang-orang Lewi lainnya untuk tetap mengurus hal-hal yang bersangkutan dengan ibadat di tempat di mana Peti Perjanjian TUHAN disimpan. Setiap hari mereka harus bertugas di situ,
38 And Obed Edom and his brethren, three score and eight: and Obed Edom the sonne of Ieduthun, and Hosah were porters.
dibantu oleh Obed-Edom anak Yedutun, serta 68 orang lainnya yang sekaum dengan dia. Obed-Edom dan Hosa adalah pengawal pintu-pintu gerbang.
39 And Zadok the Priest and his brethren the Priestes were before the Tabernacle of ye Lord, in the hie place that was at Gibeon,
Tetapi Zadok dan imam-imam lainnya ditugaskan untuk tetap mengurus ibadat di tempat ibadat di Gibeon.
40 To offer burnt offrings vnto the Lord, vpon the burnt offring altar continually, in the morning and in the euening, euen according vnto all that is written in the law of the Lord, which hee commanded Israel.
Setiap pagi dan petang mereka harus mempersembahkan kurban bakaran di atas mezbah sesuai dengan hukum-hukum yang diberikan TUHAN kepada orang Israel.
41 And with them were Heman, and Ieduthun, and the rest that were chosen (which were appointed by names) to praise the Lord, because his mercie endureth for euer.
Imam Zadok dan imam-imam itu dibantu oleh Heman dan Yedutun serta orang-orang lain yang khusus dipilih untuk menyanyikan pujian bagi TUHAN karena kasih-Nya yang kekal abadi.
42 Euen with them were Heman and Ioduthun, to make a sound with the cornets and with the cymbales, with excellent instruments of musicke: and the sonnes of Ieduthun were at the gate.
Heman dan Yedutun juga bertugas atas trompet, simbal dan alat musik lainnya yang dimainkan untuk mengiringi nyanyian-nyanyian pujian. Anggota-anggota kaum Yedutun ditugaskan untuk menjaga pintu-pintu gerbang.
43 And all the people departed, euerie man to his house: and Dauid returned to blesse his house.
Kemudian pulanglah semua orang ke rumahnya masing-masing. Begitu pula Daud pulang untuk menengok keluarganya.
