1 Chronicles 14
1 Then Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, carpenters, and masons. They built a house for him.
Hiram, raja negeri Tirus, mengirim utusan kepada Daud dan kayu aras, tukang-tukang batu dan tukang-tukang kayu untuk mendirikan sebuah istana baginya.
2 David knew that Yahweh had established him as king over Israel, and that his kingdom was exalted on high for the sake of his people Israel.
Lalu tahulah Daud, bahwa TUHAN telah menegakkan dia sebagai raja atas Israel, sebab martabat pemerintahannya terangkat tinggi oleh karena Israel umat-Nya.
3 In Jerusalem, David took more wives, and he became the father of more sons and daughters.
Daud mengambil lagi beberapa isteri di Yerusalem, dan ia memperanakkan lagi anak-anak lelaki dan perempuan.
4 These were the names of the children who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,
Inilah nama anak-anak yang lahir bagi dia di Yerusalem: Syamua, Sobab, Natan, Salomo,
5 Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet,
Yibhar, Elisua, Elpelet,
6 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia,
Nogah, Nefeg, Yafia,
7 Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet.
Elisama, Beelyada dan Elifelet.
8 Now when the Philistines heard that David had been anointed as king over all Israel, they all went out looking for him. But David heard about it and went out against them.
Ketika didengar orang Filistin, bahwa Daud telah diurapi menjadi raja atas seluruh Israel, maka majulah semua orang Filistin untuk menangkap Daud. Tetapi Daud mendengar hal itu, lalu majulah ia menghadapi mereka.
9 Now the Philistines had come and made a raid in the Valley of Rephaim.
Ketika orang Filistin itu datang dan mengadakan penyerbuan di lembah Refaim,
10 Then David asked for help from God. He said, “Should I attack the Philistines? Will you give victory over them?” Yahweh said to him, “Attack, for I will certainly give them to you.”
bertanyalah Daud kepada Allah: "Apakah aku harus maju melawan orang Filistin itu dan akan Kauserahkankah mereka ke dalam tanganku?" TUHAN menjawab: "Majulah, Aku akan menyerahkan mereka ke dalam tanganmu."
11 So they came up to Baal Perazim, and there he defeated them. He commented, “God has burst through my enemies by my hand like a bursting flood of water.” So the name of that place became Baal Perazim.
Lalu majulah ia ke Baal-Perasim, dan Daud memukul mereka kalah di sana. Berkatalah Daud: "Allah telah menerobos musuhku dengan perantaraanku seperti air menerobos." Sebab itu orang menamakan tempat itu Baal-Perasim.
12 The Philistines abandoned their gods there, and David gave an order that they should be burned.
Orang Filistin itu meninggalkan para allahnya di sana, lalu orang Israel membakarnya habis atas perintah Daud.
13 Then the Philistines raided the valley yet again.
Ketika orang Filistin menyerbu sekali lagi di lembah itu,
14 So David asked for help from God again. God said to him, “You must not attack their front, but rather circle around behind them and come on them through the balsam woods.
maka bertanyalah lagi Daud kepada Allah, lalu Allah menjawab: "Janganlah maju di belakang mereka, tetapi buatlah gerakan lingkaran terhadap mereka, sehingga engkau dapat menyerang mereka dari jurusan pohon-pohon kertau.
15 When you hear the sound of marching in the wind blowing through the balsam treetops, then attack with force. Do this because God will have gone out before you to attack the army of the Philistines.”
Dan bila engkau mendengar bunyi derap langkah di puncak pohon-pohon kertau itu, maka haruslah engkau keluar bertempur, sebab Allah telah keluar berperang di depanmu untuk memukul kalah tentara orang Filistin."
16 So David did as God had commanded him. He defeated the army of the Philistines from Gibeon all the way to Gezer.
Dan Daud berbuat seperti yang diperintahkan Allah kepadanya, maka mereka memukul kalah tentara orang Filistin, mulai dari Gibeon sampai Gezer.
17 Then David's fame went out into all lands, and Yahweh caused all nations to fear him.
Lalu termasyhurlah nama Daud di segala negeri, dan TUHAN mendatangkan rasa takut kepadanya atas segala bangsa.
