1 Samuel 18
1 It happened, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
Ketika Daud habis berbicara dengan Saul, berpadulah jiwa Yonatan dengan jiwa Daud; dan Yonatan mengasihi dia seperti jiwanya sendiri.
2 Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
Pada hari itu Saul membawa dia dan tidak membiarkannya pulang ke rumah ayahnya.
3 Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
Yonatan mengikat perjanjian dengan Daud, karena ia mengasihi dia seperti dirinya sendiri.
4 Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him, and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword and his bow and his belt.
Yonatan menanggalkan jubah yang dipakainya, dan memberikannya kepada Daud, juga baju perangnya, sampai pedangnya, panahnya dan ikat pinggangnya.
5 Then Saul set him over the men of war, and David went out, succeeding wherever Saul sent him. And it was good in the sight of all the people, and also in the sight of Saul's servants.
Daud maju berperang dan selalu berhasil ke mana juga Saul menyuruhnya, sehingga Saul mengangkat dia mengepalai para prajurit. Hal ini dipandang baik oleh seluruh rakyat dan juga oleh pegawai-pegawai Saul.
6 It happened as they came, when David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with instruments of music.
Tetapi pada waktu mereka pulang, ketika Daud kembali sesudah mengalahkan orang Filistin itu, keluarlah orang-orang perempuan dari segala kota Israel menyongsong raja Saul sambil menyanyi dan menari-nari dengan memukul rebana, dengan bersukaria dan dengan membunyikan gerincing;
7 The women sang one to another as they played, and said, "Saul has slain his thousands, David his ten thousands."
dan perempuan yang menari-nari itu menyanyi berbalas-balasan, katanya: "Saul mengalahkan beribu-ribu musuh, tetapi Daud berlaksa-laksa."
8 Saul was very angry, and this saying displeased him; and he said, "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands. What can he have more but the kingdom?"
Lalu bangkitlah amarah Saul dengan sangat; dan perkataan itu menyebalkan hatinya, sebab pikirnya: "Kepada Daud diperhitungkan mereka berlaksa-laksa, tetapi kepadaku diperhitungkannya beribu-ribu; akhir-akhirnya jabatan raja itupun jatuh kepadanya."
9 Saul viewed David with suspicion from that day and forward.
Sejak hari itu maka Saul selalu mendengki Daud.
10 It happened on the next day, that a harmful spirit from God came mightily on Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house. David played with his hand, as he did day by day. Saul had his spear in his hand;
Keesokan harinya roh jahat yang dari pada Allah itu berkuasa atas Saul, sehingga ia kerasukan di tengah-tengah rumah, sedang Daud main kecapi seperti sehari-hari. Adapun Saul ada tombak di tangannya.
11 and Saul threw the spear; for he said, "I will pin David even to the wall." David escaped from his presence twice.
Saul melemparkan tombak itu, karena pikirnya: "Baiklah aku menancapkan Daud ke dinding." Tetapi Daud mengelakkannya sampai dua kali.
12 Saul was afraid of David, because YHWH was with him, and had departed from Saul.
Saul menjadi takut kepada Daud, karena TUHAN menyertai Daud, sedang dari pada Saul Ia telah undur.
13 Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.
Sebab itu Saul menjauhkan Daud dari dekatnya dan mengangkat dia menjadi kepala pasukan seribu, sehingga ia berada di depan dalam segala gerakan tentara.
14 David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and YHWH was with him.
Daud berhasil di segala perjalanannya, sebab TUHAN menyertai dia.
15 When Saul saw that he behaved himself very wisely, he stood in awe of him.
Ketika dilihat Saul, bahwa Daud sangat berhasil, makin takutlah ia kepadanya;
16 But all Israel and Judah loved David; for he went out and came in before them.
tetapi seluruh orang Israel dan orang Yehuda mengasihi Daud, karena ia memimpin segala gerakan mereka.
17 Saul said to David, "Look, my elder daughter Merob, I will give her to you as wife. Only be valiant for me, and fight YHWH's battles." For Saul said, "Do not let my hand be on him, but let the hand of the Philistines be on him."
Berkatalah Saul kepada Daud: "Ini dia anakku perempuan yang tertua, Merab; dia akan kuberikan kepadamu menjadi isterimu, hanya jadilah bagiku seorang yang gagah perkasa dan lakukanlah perang TUHAN." Sebab pikir Saul: "Janganlah tanganku memukul dia, tetapi biarlah ia dipukul oleh tangan orang Filistin."
18 David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my life, or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?"
Tetapi Daud berkata kepada Saul: "Siapakah aku dan siapakah sanak saudaraku, kaum ayahku, di antara orang Israel, sehingga aku menjadi menantu raja?"
19 But it happened at the time when Merob, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as wife.
Tetapi ketika tiba waktunya untuk memberikan Merab, anak Saul itu, kepada Daud, maka anak perempuan itu diberikan kepada Adriel, orang Mehola, menjadi isterinya.
20 Mikal, Saul's daughter, loved David; and they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.
Tetapi Mikhal, anak perempuan Saul, jatuh cinta kepada Daud; ketika hal itu diberitahukan kepada Saul, maka iapun menyetujuinya;
21 And Saul thought, "I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David, "You shall this day be my son-in-law a second time."
sebab pikir Saul: "Baiklah Mikhal kuberikan kepadanya; biarlah ia menjadi jerat bagi Daud, dan biarlah tangan orang Filistin memukul dia!" Lalu berkatalah Saul kepada Daud untuk kedua kalinya: "Pada hari ini engkau boleh menjadi menantuku."
22 Then Saul commanded his servants, "Talk with David secretly, and say, 'Look, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. So now therefore be the king's son-in-law.'"
Lagi Saul memerintahkan kepada para pegawainya: "Katakanlah kepada Daud dengan diam-diam, demikian: Sesungguhnya, raja suka kepadamu dan para pegawainya mengasihi engkau; maka sebab itu, jadilah engkau menantu raja."
23 Saul's servants spoke those words in the ears of David. David said, "Does it seems to you a little thing to be the king's son-in-law, since I am a poor man, and insignificant?"
Lalu para pegawai Saul menyampaikan perkataan itu kepada Daud, tetapi Daud menjawab: "Perkara ringankah pada pemandanganmu menjadi menantu raja? Bukankah aku seorang yang miskin dan rendah?"
24 The servants of Saul told him, saying, "David spoke like this."
Para pegawai Saul memberitahukan kepada raja, katanya: "Demikianlah jawab yang diberi Daud."
25 Saul said, "You shall tell David, 'The king desires no dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king's enemies.'" Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
Kemudian berkatalah Saul: "Beginilah kamu katakan kepada Daud: Raja tidak menghendaki mas kawin selain dari seratus kulit khatan orang Filistin sebagai pembalasan kepada musuh raja." Saul bermaksud untuk menjatuhkan Daud dengan perantaraan orang Filistin.
26 When his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to be the king's son-in-law. The days were not expired;
Ketika para pegawainya memberitahukan perkataan itu kepada Daud, maka setujulah Daud menjadi menantu raja. Waktunya belum genap,
27 and David arose and went, he and his men, and killed of the Philistines one hundred men; and David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might be the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Mikal his daughter as wife.
tetapi Daud sudah bersiap, ia pergi dengan orang-orangnya dan menewaskan dari orang Filistin itu dua ratus orang serta membawa kulit khatan mereka; dan dalam jumlah yang genap diberikan merekalah semuanya itu kepada raja, supaya Daud menjadi menantu raja. Kemudian Saul memberikan Mikhal, anaknya, kepadanya menjadi isterinya.
28 When Saul saw and knew that YHWH was with David, and that all Israel loved him,
Lalu mengertilah Saul dan tahulah ia, bahwa TUHAN menyertai Daud, dan bahwa seluruh orang Israel mengasihi Daud.
29 then he was even more afraid of David. So Saul was David's enemy continually.
Maka makin takutlah Saul kepada Daud. Saul tetap menjadi musuh Daud seumur hidupnya.
30 Then the leaders of the Philistines went forth: and it happened, as often as they went forth, that David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul; so that his name was highly esteemed.
Apabila raja-raja orang Filistin maju berperang, setiap kali mereka maju berperang, maka Daud lebih berhasil dari semua pegawai Saul, sehingga namanya sangat masyhur.
