2 Samuel 21
1 And there came to be a famine, in the days of David, for three years, year after year, so then David sought the face of Yahweh, —and Yahweh said—It respecteth Saul and his house, as to bloodshed, in that he put to death the Gibeonites.
Dalam zaman Daud terjadilah kelaparan selama tiga tahun berturut-turut, lalu Daud pergi menanyakan petunjuk TUHAN. Berfirmanlah TUHAN: "Pada Saul dan keluarganya melekat hutang darah, karena ia telah membunuh orang-orang Gibeon."
2 The king therefore called the Gibeonites, and said unto them (now, the Gibeonites, were, not of the sons of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites, with whom, the sons of Israel, had entered into an oath, and Saul had sought to smite them, in his jealousy for the sons of Israel and Judah)—
Lalu raja memanggil orang-orang Gibeon dan berkata kepada mereka, --orang-orang Gibeon itu tidak termasuk orang Israel, tetapi termasuk sisa-sisa orang Amori dan walaupun orang Israel telah bersumpah kepada mereka, Saul berikhtiar membasmi mereka dalam kegiatannya untuk kepentingan orang Israel dan Yehuda, --
3 wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites—What shall I do for you, and wherewith shall I make propitiation, so that ye may bless the inheritance of Yahweh?
Daud berkata kepada orang-orang Gibeon itu: "Apakah yang dapat kuperbuat bagimu dan dengan apakah dapat kuadakan penebusan, supaya kamu memberkati milik pusaka TUHAN?"
4 And the Gibeonites said unto him—It is not a matter with us of silver or gold, with Saul or with his house, neither would we have a man put to death in Israel. And he said, —What do ye say I should do for you?
Lalu berkatalah orang-orang Gibeon itu kepadanya: "Bukanlah perkara emas dan perak urusan kami dengan Saul serta keluarganya, juga bukanlah urusan kami untuk membunuh seseorang di antara orang Israel." Tetapi kata Daud: "Apakah yang kamu kehendaki akan kuperbuat bagimu?"
5 Then said they unto the king, The man who consumed us, and who thought to have destroyed us from taking a place within any of the bounds of Israel,
Sesudah itu berkatalah mereka kepada raja: "Dari orang yang hendak membinasakan kami dan yang bermaksud memunahkan kami, sehingga kami tidak mendapat tempat di manapun di daerah Israel,
6 let there be delivered up to us—seven men of his sons, and we will crucify them unto Yahweh in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Yahweh. And the king said, I, will deliver them up.
biarlah diserahkan tujuh orang anaknya laki-laki kepada kami, supaya kami menggantung mereka di hadapan TUHAN di Gibeon, di bukit TUHAN." Lalu berkatalah raja: "Aku akan menyerahkan mereka."
7 But the king had pity upon Mephibosheth, son of Jonathan, Saul’s son, —because of the oath of Yahweh that was between them, between David and Jonathan, Saul’s son.
Tetapi raja merasa sayang kepada Mefiboset bin Yonatan bin Saul, karena sumpah demi TUHAN ada di antara mereka, di antara Daud dan Yonatan bin Saul.
8 So the king took the two sons of Rizpah daughter of Aiah, whom she had borne to Saul, even Armoni and Mephibosheth, —and the five sons of Michal daughter of Saul, whom she had borne to Adriel son of Barzillai, the Meholathite;
Lalu raja mengambil kedua anak laki-laki Rizpa binti Aya, yang dilahirkannya bagi Saul, yakni Armoni dan Mefiboset, dan kelima anak laki-laki Merab binti Saul, yang dilahirkannya bagi Adriel bin Barzilai, orang Mehola itu,
9 and delivered them up into the hand of the Gibeonites, and they crucified them in the mountain, before Yahweh, so they seven fell together, —they being put to death in the first days of harvest, in the beginning of the barley harvest.
kemudian diserahkannyalah mereka ke dalam tangan orang-orang Gibeon itu. Orang-orang ini menggantung mereka di atas bukit, di hadapan TUHAN. Ketujuh orang itu tewas bersama-sama. Mereka telah dihukum mati pada awal musim menuai, pada permulaan musim menuai jelai.
10 Then Rizpah daughter of Aiah, took sackcloth, and spread it out for herself, on the rock, from the beginning of harvest, until water poured out upon them from the heavens, —and suffered neither the birds of the heavens to rest on them by day, nor the wild beasts of the field, [to devour them] by night.
Lalu Rizpa binti Aya mengambil kain karung, dan membentangkannya bagi dirinya di atas gunung batu, dari permulaan musim menuai sampai tercurah air dari langit ke atas mayat mereka; ia tidak membiarkan burung-burung di udara mendatangi mayat mereka pada siang hari, ataupun binatang-binatang di hutan pada malam hari.
11 And it was told David, —what Rizpah daughter of Aiah, Saul’s concubine, had done.
Ketika diberitahukan kepada Daud apa yang diperbuat Rizpa binti Aya, gundik Saul itu,
12 So David went and fetched the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the owners of Jabesh-gilead, —who stole them from the broadway of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, on the day when the Philistines had smitten Saul in Gilboa;
maka pergilah Daud mengambil tulang-tulang Saul dan tulang-tulang Yonatan, anaknya, dari warga-warga kota Yabesh-Gilead, yang telah mencuri tulang-tulang itu dari tanah lapang di Bet-San, tempat orang Filistin menggantung mereka, ketika orang Filistin memukul Saul kalah di Gilboa.
13 and he brought up from thence the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, —and they gathered together the bones of them who had been crucified;
Ia membawa dari sana tulang-tulang Saul dan tulang-tulang Yonatan, anaknya. Dikumpulkanlah juga tulang-tulang orang-orang yang digantung tadi,
14 so they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the land of Benjamin, in Zelah, in the grave of Kish his father, thus did they all that the king commanded, —and God suffered himself to be entreated for the land, after this.
lalu dikuburkan bersama-sama tulang-tulang Saul dan Yonatan, anaknya, di tanah Benyamin, di Zela, di dalam kubur Kish, ayahnya. Orang melakukan segala sesuatu yang diperintahkan raja, maka sesudah itu Allah mengabulkan doa untuk negeri itu.
15 And the Philistines had yet again a war with Israel, —so David went down, and his servants with him, and fought the Philistines, and David became faint.
Ketika terjadi lagi peperangan antara orang Filistin dan orang Israel, maka berangkatlah Daud bersama-sama dengan orang-orangnya, lalu berperang melawan orang Filistin, sampai Daud menjadi letih lesu.
16 So, Ishbi-benob, who was of the descendants of the giant, the weight of whose spear-head, was three hundred shekels of bronze, he also being newly armed, thought to smite David;
Yisbi-Benob, yang termasuk keturunan raksasa--berat tombaknya tiga ratus syikal tembaga dan ia menyandang pedang yang baru--menyangka dapat menewaskan Daud.
17 but Abishai son of Zeruiah, came to his help, and smote the Philistine, and slew him. Then, sware the men of David unto him, saying—Thou must not go forth any more with us, to battle, that thou quench not the lamp of Israel.
Tetapi Abisai, anak Zeruya, datang menolong Daud, lalu merobohkan dan membunuh orang Filistin itu. Pada waktu itu orang-orang Daud memohon dengan sangat kepadanya, kata mereka: "Janganlah lagi engkau maju berperang bersama-sama dengan kami, supaya keturunan Israel jangan punah bersama-sama engkau."
18 And it came to pass, after this, that there was yet again a battle in Gob, with the Philistines, —then, Sibbekai the Hushathite smote Saph, who was of the descendants of the giant.
Sesudah itu terjadi lagi pertempuran melawan orang Filistin di Gob; pada waktu itu Sibkhai, orang Husa, memukul kalah Saf, yang termasuk keturunan raksasa.
19 And there was yet again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, —when Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim of Bethlehem, smote Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
Dan terjadi lagi pertempuran melawan orang Filistin, di Gob; Elhanan bin Yaare-Oregim, orang Betlehem itu, menewaskan Goliat, orang Gat itu, yang gagang tombaknya seperti pesa tukang tenun.
20 And there was yet again a battle in Gath; when there was a man of stature, with six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; he also, having been born to the giant;
Lalu terjadi lagi pertempuran di Gat; dan di sana ada seorang yang tinggi perawakannya, yang tangannya dan kakinya masing-masing berjari enam: dua puluh empat seluruhnya; juga orang ini termasuk keturunan raksasa.
21 but, when he reproached Israel, Jonathan son of Shimeah David’s brother, smote, him.
Ia mengolok-olok orang Israel, maka Yonatan, anak Simea kakak Daud, menewaskannya.
22 These four, had been born to the giant in Gath, —but they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
Keempat orang ini termasuk keturunan raksasa di Gat; mereka tewas oleh tangan Daud dan oleh tangan orang-orangnya.
