< 1 Tawarikh 11 >

1 Semua pemimpin bangsa Israel datang kepada Daud di Hebron dan berkata, "Kami ini kerabat Baginda.
Then the people of Israel came to David at Hebron [town] and said to him, “Listen, we have the same ancestors [IDM] that you have.
2 Sejak dahulu, bahkan ketika Saul masih memerintah kami, Bagindalah yang memimpin tentara Israel setiap kali mereka maju berperang. Lagipula TUHAN Allah Baginda telah berjanji bahwa Bagindalah yang akan memimpin umat-Nya dan menjadi raja mereka."
In the past, when Saul was our king, it was you who led our Israeli [soldiers in our battles]. You are the one to whom Yahweh our God promised, ‘You will be the leader [MET] of my people; you will be their king.’”
3 Maka Daud membuat perjanjian dengan pemimpin-pemimpin Israel itu. Lalu mereka melantik dia menjadi raja Israel seperti yang telah dijanjikan TUHAN melalui Samuel.
So all the Israeli elders came to David at Hebron. And David made a sacred agreement with them while Yahweh was listening. They anointed him [with olive oil to set him apart] to be the king of the Israeli people. That is what Yahweh had previously told [the prophet] Samuel would happen.
4 Suatu waktu Raja Daud dengan seluruh tentara Israel pergi menyerang kota Yerusalem. Pada waktu itu kota itu bernama Yebus, dan didiami oleh orang Yebus, penduduk asli kota itu.
David and all the Israeli [soldiers] [SYN] went to Jerusalem. [At that time, ] Jerusalem was called Jebus, and the people who lived there were the Jebus people-group.
5 Orang-orang Yebus telah berkata kepada Daud, bahwa ia tidak mungkin dapat memasuki kota mereka itu. Tetapi Daud berhasil merebut benteng mereka yang bernama Sion. Pada waktu itu Daud telah mengumumkan kepada anak buahnya bahwa orang pertama yang membunuh seorang Yebus akan menjadi panglima. Maka karena Yoablah yang pertama-tama menyerbu orang Yebus, ia diangkat menjadi panglima. (Ibu Yoab bernama Zeruya.) Setelah merebut benteng Sion, Daud tinggal di situ. Itu sebabnya sejak waktu itu benteng itu disebut "Kota Daud".
Those people said to David, “Your [soldiers] will not be able to get inside our city!” But David’s [soldiers] captured the city, even though it had strong walls around it, and since then it has been called ‘The City of David’.
6
[What happened was this: ]: David said [to his soldiers], “The one who leads [our soldiers] to attack the Jebus people-group will become the commander of all my army.” Joab, the son of Zeruiah, led the soldiers, so he became the commander of all the army.
7
[After they captured] the city which had strong walls around it, David moved there. That is why they named it ‘The City of David’.
8 Daud membangun kembali kota itu mulai di tempat yang ditinggikan dengan tanah di sebelah timur bukit; kemudian pembangunan itu diteruskan oleh Yoab sampai selesai.
David’s workers rebuilt the city, starting where the land was filled in and extending to the wall that was around the city. Joab’s [men] repaired the other parts of the city.
9 Daud makin lama makin kuat, karena TUHAN Mahakuasa menolong dia.
David became more and more powerful/influential, because the Almighty Commander of the armies of angels was with/helping him.
10 Inilah nama-nama para perwira Daud yang termasyhur. Bersama seluruh rakyat Israel, mereka telah berjuang supaya Daud menjadi raja seperti yang telah dijanjikan oleh TUHAN. Dan mereka terus mendukung pemerintahannya.
Yahweh had promised [that David would become the king]. And all the Israeli people (were happy that David was/supported David as) their king. There were many soldiers/warriors who helped David’s kingdom to remain strong.
11 Perwira yang pertama ialah Yasobam orang Hakhmoni, ia pemimpin "Triwira". Pernah dalam satu pertempuran ia melawan 300 orang dan menewaskan mereka semua dengan tombaknya.
This is a list of the leaders of David’s [most mighty] warriors: Jashobeam was from the Hacmon clan. He was one of the leaders of David’s most powerful soldiers. One time he fought against 300 enemies and killed them all with his spear.
12 Orang kedua dalam Triwira itu ialah Eleazar anak Dodo dari kaum Ahohi.
Another one was Eleazar, who was the son of Dodo from the clan of Ahoh.
13 Dalam pertempuran di Pas-Damim ia berjuang di pihak Daud melawan orang Filistin. Ketika tentara Israel mulai melarikan diri, dia dan anak buahnya bertahan di tengah-tengah sebuah ladang gandum dan bertempur melawan orang-orang Filistin itu. Lalu TUHAN memberikan kemenangan yang besar kepadanya.
[One day] he was with David at Pas Dammim when the soldiers of Philistia gathered there for the battle. There was a field of barley there. At first the Israeli soldiers ran away from the soldiers of Philistia,
but then David and Eleazar stopped in the middle of the field and fought to defend it and killed [many of] the soldiers of Philistia. Yahweh enabled them to win a great victory on that day.
15 Pada suatu hari 3 orang dari 30 perwira Daud yang terkemuka, pergi menemui Daud di suatu tempat yang berkubu di sebuah gunung batu dekat Gua Adulam. Pada waktu itu orang Filistin berkemah di Lembah Refaim, dan sepasukan dari mereka menduduki Betlehem.
One time three of David’s thirty most mighty warriors came to David when he was camping next to the huge rock outside the cave near Adullam. At that same time, the army of Philistia had camped in the Rephaim Valley.
David was in a fortress, and some of the soldiers of Philistia were occupying Bethlehem.
17 Daud rindu akan kampung halamannya itu dan berkata, "Ah, sekiranya aku diberi minum air dari sumur dekat pintu gerbang di Betlehem."
[One day] David was very thirsty and said, “I wish that someone would bring me some water from the well near the gate at Bethlehem!”
18 Mendengar itu, ketiga perwira itu menerobos perkemahan orang Filistin lalu menimba air dari sumur itu, kemudian membawanya kepada Daud. Tetapi Daud tidak mau meminumnya, malahan mencurahkannya sebagai persembahan kepada TUHAN.
So those three most outstanding warriors forced their way through the camp of Philistia soldiers and drew some water from the well, and brought it to David. But he would not drink it. Instead, he poured it out [on the ground to be an offering] to Yahweh.
19 Ia berkata, "Demi Allah, saya tidak bisa minum air ini! Kalau saya meminumnya, seolah-olah saya minum darah orang-orang yang telah mempertaruhkan nyawa mereka!" Jadi Daud sama sekali tidak mau minum air itu. Itulah jasa-jasa ketiga pejuang yang perkasa itu.
He said, “Yahweh, it would certainly not be right for me to drink this water! That would be like [RHQ] drinking the blood of these men who were willing/ready to die for me!” So he refused to drink it. That was one of the things that those three most outstanding warriors did.
20 Ketiga puluh perwira yang termasyhur itu dinamakan juga "Tridasawira". Mereka dipimpin oleh Abisai adik Yoab. Pernah ia menewaskan 300 orang dengan tombaknya, dan karena itu ia menjadi termasyhur. Tetapi ia tidak sehebat Triwira itu.
Joab’s [younger] brother Abishai was the leader of the 30 most mighty warriors. [One time] Abishai fought 300 [enemy] soldiers with his spear and killed them.
So he became as famous as those three most outstanding warriors. He became their commander, even though he was not one of those three men.
22 Seorang perwira termasyhur yang lain ialah Benaya anak Yoyada, orang Kabzeel. Ia sangat berani. Dua pahlawan besar dari Moab telah dibunuhnya. Pernah pada suatu hari bersalju ia masuk ke dalam sebuah lubang dan membunuh seekor singa di situ.
Jehoiada’s son Benaiah was a brave soldier from Kabzeel [town] who did heroic deeds. He killed two of the best warriors from [the] Moab [people-group]. One day he went down into a pit when snow was falling [on the ground] and killed a lion there.
23 Ia pernah juga membunuh seorang Mesir yang besar perawakannya; tingginya lebih dari dua meter. Orang itu bersenjatakan tombak yang sangat besar, tapi Benaya menghadapinya hanya dengan pentung. Tombak yang ada di tangan orang Mesir itu direbutnya lalu dipakainya untuk membunuh orang itu.
He also killed a soldier from Egypt who was (7-1/2 feet/2.3 meters) tall. The soldier from Egypt carried a spear that was as long as a weaver’s rod. Benaiah had [only] a club, but he grabbed the other man’s spear and killed him with it.
24 Itulah jasa-jasa Benaya, seorang dari Tridasawira.
Those are some of the things that Benaiah did. So he became as famous as the three mighty warriors.
25 Dalam kelompok itu, Benayalah yang terkemuka, tetapi ia tidak sehebat Triwira. Daud mengangkat dia menjadi kepala pengawal pribadinya.
He was more honored than the other members of the group of thirty most mighty warriors, but he did not become a member of the group of three most outstanding warriors. David appointed him to be the leader of his bodyguards.
