< 2 Samuel 23 >

1 Now these are the last words of David— David son of Jesse, the man who was highly honored, the one anointed by the God of Jacob, the sweet psalmist of Israel.

Inilah perkataan Daud yang terakhir: "Tutur kata Daud bin Isai dan tutur kata orang yang diangkat tinggi, orang yang diurapi Allah Yakub, pemazmur yang disenangi di Israel:

2 “The Spirit of Yahweh spoke by me, and his word was on my tongue.

Roh TUHAN berbicara dengan perantaraanku, firman-Nya ada di lidahku;

3 The God of Israel spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me, 'The one who rules righteously over men, who rules in the fear of God.

Allah Israel berfirman, gunung batu Israel berkata kepadaku: Apabila seorang memerintah manusia dengan adil, memerintah dengan takut akan Allah,

4 He will be like the morning light when the sun rises, a morning without clouds, when the tender grass springs up from the earth through bright sunshine after rain.

ia bersinar seperti fajar di waktu pagi, pagi yang tidak berawan, yang sesudah hujan membuat berkilauan rumput muda di tanah.

5 Indeed, is my family not like this before God? Has he not made an everlasting covenant with me, ordered and sure in every way? Does he not increase my salvation and fulfill my every desire?

Bukankah seperti itu keluargaku di hadapan Allah? Sebab Ia menegakkan bagiku suatu perjanjian kekal, teratur dalam segala-galanya dan terjamin. Sebab segala keselamatanku dan segala kesukaanku bukankah Dia yang menumbuhkannya?

6 But the worthless will all be like thorns to be thrown away, because they cannot be gathered by one's hands.

Tetapi orang-orang yang dursila mereka semuanya seperti duri yang dihamburkan; sesungguhnya, mereka tidak terpegang oleh tangan:

7 The man who touches them must use an iron tool or the shaft of a spear. They must be burned up where they lie.'”

tidak ada orang yang dapat mengusik mereka, kecuali dengan sebatang besi atau gagang tombak, dan dengan api mereka dibakar habis!"

8 These are the names of David's mighty men: Jeshbaal the Hachmonite was the leader of the mighty men. He killed eight hundred men on one occasion.

Inilah nama para pahlawan yang mengiringi Daud: Isybaal, orang Hakhmoni, kepala triwira; ia mengayunkan tombaknya melawan delapan ratus orang yang tertikam mati dalam satu pertempuran.

9 After him was Eleazar son of Dodai the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men. He was with David when they taunted the Philistines who had gathered together to do battle, and when the men of Israel had retreated.

Dan sesudah dia, Eleazar anak Dodo, anak seorang Ahohi; ia termasuk ketiga pahlawan itu. Ia ada bersama-sama Daud, ketika mereka mengolok-olok orang Filistin, yang telah berkumpul di sana untuk berperang, padahal orang-orang Israel telah mengundurkan diri.

10 Eleazar stood and fought the Philistines until his hand became weary and his hand stiffened to the grip of his sword. Yahweh brought about a great victory that day. The army returned after Eleazar, only to strip the bodies.

Tetapi ia bangkit dan membunuh demikian banyak orang Filistin sampai tangannya lesu dan tinggal melekat pada pedangnya. TUHAN memberikan pada hari itu kemenangan yang besar. Rakyat datang kembali mengikuti dia, hanya untuk merampas.

11 After him was Shammah son of Agee, a Hararite. The Philistines gathered together where there was a field of lentils, and the army fled from them.

Sesudah dia, Sama, anak Age, orang Harari. Ketika orang Filistin berkumpul di Lehi--di sana ada sebidang tanah ladang penuh kacang merah--dan tentara telah melarikan diri dari hadapan orang Filistin,

12 But Shammah stood in the middle of the field and defended it. He killed the Philistines, and Yahweh brought about a great victory.

maka berdirilah ia di tengah-tengah ladang itu, ia dapat mempertahankannya dan memukul kalah orang Filistin. Demikianlah diberikan TUHAN kemenangan yang besar.

13 Three of the thirty soldiers went down to David at harvest time, to the cave of Adullam. The army of the Philistines was camped in the Valley of Rephaim.

Sekali datanglah tiga orang dari ketiga puluh kepala mendapatkan Daud, menjelang musim menuai, dekat gua Adulam, sedang sepasukan orang Filistin berkemah di lembah Refaim.

14 At that time David was in his stronghold, a cave, while the Philistines had established at Bethlehem.

Pada waktu itu Daud ada di dalam kubu gunung dan pasukan pendudukan orang Filistin pada waktu itu ada di Betlehem.

15 David was longing for water and said, “If only someone would give me water to drink from the well at Bethlehem, the well that is by the gate!”

Lalu timbullah keinginan pada Daud, dan ia berkata: "Sekiranya ada orang yang memberi aku minum air dari perigi Betlehem yang ada dekat pintu gerbang!"

16 So these three mighty men broke through the army of the Philistines and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, the well at the gate. They took the water and brought it to David, but he refused to drink it. Instead, he poured it out to Yahweh.

Lalu ketiga pahlawan itu menerobos perkemahan orang Filistin, mereka menimba air dari perigi Betlehem yang ada dekat pintu gerbang, mengangkatnya dan membawanya kepada Daud. Tetapi Daud tidak mau meminumnya, melainkan mempersembahkannya sebagai korban curahan kepada TUHAN,

17 Then he said, “Yahweh, far be it from me, that I should do this. Should I drink the blood of men who have risked their lives?” So he refused to drink it. These things were done by the three mighty.

katanya: "Jauhlah dari padaku, ya TUHAN, untuk berbuat demikian! Bukankah ini darah orang-orang yang telah pergi dengan mempertaruhkan nyawanya?" Dan tidak mau ia meminumnya. Itulah yang dilakukan ketiga pahlawan itu.

18 Abishai, brother of Joab and son of Zeruiah, was captain over the three. He once fought with his spear against three hundred men and killed them. He was often mentioned along with the three soldiers.

Abisai, adik Yoab, anak Zeruya, dialah kepala ketiga puluh orang itu. Dan dialah yang mengayunkan tombaknya melawan tiga ratus orang yang mati ditikamnya; ia mendapat nama di antara ketiga puluh orang itu.

19 Was he not even more famous than the three? He was made their captain. However, his fame did not equal the fame of the three most famous soldiers.

Bukankah ia yang paling dihormati di antara ketiga puluh orang itu? Memang ia menjadi pemimpin mereka, tetapi ia tidak dapat menyamai triwira itu.

20 Benaiah from Kabzeel was the son of Jehoiada; he was a strong man who did mighty feats. He killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down into a pit and killed a lion while it was snowing.

Selanjutnya Benaya bin Yoyada, anak seorang yang gagah perkasa, yang besar jasanya, yang berasal dari Kabzeel; ia menewaskan kedua pahlawan besar dari Moab. Juga pernah ia turun ke dalam lobang dan membunuh seekor singa pada suatu hari bersalju.

21 Then he killed a very large Egyptian man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but Benaiah fought against him with only a staff. He seized the spear out of the Egyptian's hand and then killed him with his own spear.

Pula ia membunuh seorang Mesir, seorang yang tinggi perawakannya; di tangan orang Mesir itu ada tombak, tetapi ia mendatanginya dengan tongkat, merampas tombak itu dari tangan orang Mesir itu, lalu membunuh orang itu dengan tombaknya sendiri.

22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada did these feats, and he was named alongside the three mighty men.

Itulah yang diperbuat Benaya bin Yoyada; ia mendapat nama di antara ketiga puluh pahlawan itu.

23 He was more highly regarded than the thirty soldiers in general, but he was not regarded quite as highly as the three mighty men. Yet David put him in charge of his bodyguard.

Di antara ketiga puluh orang itu ia paling dihormati, tetapi ia tidak dapat menyamai triwira. Dan Daud mengangkat dia mengepalai pengawalnya.

24 The thirty included the following men: Asahel brother of Joab, Elhanan son of Dodo from Bethlehem,

Asael, saudara Yoab, ada di antara ketiga puluh orang itu; selanjutnya Elhanan bin Dodo, dari Betlehem;

25 Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite,

Sama, orang Harod; Elika, orang Harod;

26 Helez the Paltite, Ira son of Ikkesh the Tekoite,

Heles, orang Palti; Ira anak Ikesh orang Tekoa;

27 Abiezer the Anathothite, Sibbekai the Hushathite,

Abiezer, orang Anatot; Mebunai, orang Husa;

28 Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite;

Zalmon, orang Ahohi; Maharai, orang Netofa;

29 Heleb son of Baanah, the Netophathite, Ithai son of Ribai from Gibeah of the Benjamites,
