1 Tawarikh 16
1 Peti Perjanjian itu diletakkan di dalam kemah yang telah disediakan oleh Daud untuk Peti itu. Lalu mereka mempersembahkan kepada Allah kurban bakaran dan kurban perdamaian.
And they bring in the Ark of God, and set it up in the midst of the tent that David has stretched out for it, and they bring burnt-offerings and peace-offerings near before God;
2 Setelah Daud selesai mempersembahkan kurban-kurban itu, ia memberkati rakyat atas nama TUHAN,
and David ceases from offering the burnt-offering and the peace-offerings, and blesses the people in the Name of YHWH,
3 lalu membagi-bagikan makanan kepada mereka semua. Setiap orang yang ada di situ baik laki-laki maupun wanita mendapat sepotong daging panggang, roti dan kue kismis.
and gives a portion to every man of Israel, both man and woman: to each a cake of bread, and a measure of wine, and a grape-cake.
4 Daud mengangkat beberapa orang Lewi untuk memimpin upacara ibadat kepada TUHAN, Allah Israel, di depan Peti Perjanjian itu, dengan nyanyian dan puji-pujian.
And he puts before the Ark of YHWH, those ministering from the Levites, even to make mention of, and to thank, and to give praise to YHWH, God of Israel:
5 Asaf dipilih sebagai pemimpin utama dan Zakharia wakilnya. Yeiel, Semiramot, Yehiel, Matica, Eliab, Benaya, Obed-Edom dan Yeiel ditugaskan untuk memainkan kecapi. Asaf ditugaskan memainkan simbal,
Asaph the head, and his second Zechariah; Jeiel, and Shemiramoth, and Jehiel, and Mattithiah, and Eliab, and Benaiah, and Obed-Edom, and Jeiel, with instruments of psalteries, and with harps; and Asaph is sounding with cymbals;
6 dan dua orang imam, yaitu Benaya dan Yahaziel, ditugaskan untuk secara tetap meniup trompet di depan Peti Perjanjian itu.
and Benaiah and Jahaziel the priests [are] continually [sounding] with trumpets before the Ark of the Covenant of God.
7 Itulah pertama kalinya Daud menugaskan Asaf dan rekan-rekannya untuk menyanyikan puji-pujian kepada TUHAN.
On that day, at that time, David has given at the beginning to give thanks to YHWH by the hand of Asaph and his brothers:
8 Bersyukurlah kepada TUHAN, wartakanlah kebesaran-Nya, ceritakanlah perbuatan-Nya di antara bangsa-bangsa.
“Give thanks to YHWH, call on His Name, Make His doings known among the peoples.
9 Nyanyikanlah pujian bagi TUHAN, beritakanlah segala karya-Nya yang menakjubkan.
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him, Meditate on all His wonders.
10 Dialah TUHAN Yang Mahaesa; bersukacitalah, sebab kita milik-Nya; semua yang menyembah Dia hendaklah bergembira.
Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices.
11 Mintalah kekuatan daripada-Nya, sembahlah Dia senantiasa.
Seek YHWH and His strength, Seek His face continually.
12 Hai keturunan Yakub, hamba Allah! Hai keturunan Israel, umat pilihan-Nya! Ingatlah semua keajaiban yang dilakukan-Nya, jangan melupakan keputusan-keputusan-Nya.
Remember His wonders that He did, His signs, and the judgments of His mouth,
O seed of Israel, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones!
14 TUHAN adalah Allah kita, keputusan-Nya berlaku di seluruh dunia.
He [is] our God YHWH, His judgments [are] in all the earth.
15 Ia selalu ingat akan perjanjian-Nya, janji-Nya berlaku selama-lamanya.
Remember His covenant for all time, The word He commanded—To one thousand generations,
16 Perjanjian itu dibuat-Nya dengan Abraham, dan kemudian dengan Ishak,
Which He has made with Abraham, And His oath—to Isaac,
17 lalu dikukuhkan dengan Yakub menjadi perjanjian yang kekal bagi umat Israel.
And He establishes it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel [for] a perpetual covenant,
18 Kata-Nya, "Tanah Kanaan akan Kuberikan kepadamu menjadi milik pusakamu."
Saying, To you I give the land of Canaan, The portion of your inheritance,
19 Dahulu umat TUHAN hidup sebagai orang asing di sana jumlah mereka sedikit saja.
When you were few in number, As a little thing, and sojourners in it.
20 Mereka mengembara dari bangsa ke bangsa, pindah dari satu negeri ke negeri lainnya.
And they go up and down, From nation to nation, And from a kingdom to another people.
21 Tetapi TUHAN tidak membiarkan siapa pun menindas mereka; demi mereka, raja-raja diperingatkan-Nya,
He has not permitted any to oppress them, And reproves kings on their account:
22 "Jangan mengganggu orang-orang pilihan-Ku, jangan berbuat jahat kepada nabi-nabi-Ku."
Do not come against My anointed ones, And do no evil against My prophets.
23 Nyanyilah bagi TUHAN, hai bumi seluruhnya, setiap hari siarkanlah kabar gembira bahwa Ia telah menyelamatkan kita.
Sing to YHWH, all the earth, Proclaim His salvation from day to day.
24 Ceritakan keagungan-Nya kepada bangsa-bangsa, dan perbuatan-perbuatan-Nya yang perkasa kepada umat manusia.
Recount His glory among nations, His wonders among all the peoples.
25 Sebab besarlah TUHAN dan sangat terpuji; Ia harus ditakuti lebih dari segala dewa.
For great [is] YHWH, and greatly praised, And He [is] fearful above all gods.
26 Dewa-dewa bangsa lain hanya patung berhala tetapi TUHAN adalah pencipta angkasa raya.
For all gods of the peoples [are] nothing, And YHWH has made the heavens.
27 Ia diliputi keagungan dan kemuliaan, rumah-Nya penuh kuasa dan sukacita.
Splendor and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and joy [are] in His place.
28 Pujilah TUHAN, hai umat manusia! Pujilah keagungan dan kekuatan-Nya.
Ascribe to YHWH, you families of peoples, Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength.
29 Pujilah nama-Nya yang mulia, dan bawalah kurban ke dalam rumah-Nya. Sembahlah TUHAN dengan mengenakan pakaian ibadat!
Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, Lift up a present, and come before Him. Bow yourselves to YHWH, In the beauty of holiness.
30 Gemetarlah di hadapan-Nya, hai seluruh dunia! Bumi kukuh tidak tergoyahkan.
Be pained before Him, all the earth; Also, the world is established, It is not moved!
31 Hai langit dan bumi, bergembiralah! Beritakanlah kepada bangsa-bangsa bahwa TUHAN itu Raja!
The heavens rejoice, and the earth is glad, And they say among nations, YHWH has reigned!
32 Bergemuruhlah hai laut dan semua isinya! Bersukacitalah hai padang dan segala tanamannya!
The sea roars, and its fullness, The field exults, and all that [is] in it,
33 Pohon-pohon di hutan akan bersorak-sorai sebab TUHAN telah datang untuk memerintah di bumi.
Then trees of the forest sing, From the presence of YHWH, For He has come to judge the earth!
34 Bersyukurlah kepada TUHAN, sebab Ia baik; kasih-Nya kekal abadi.
Give thanks to YHWH, for [He is] good, For His kindness [is] for all time,
35 Katakanlah, "Ya Allah, Penyelamat kami, selamatkanlah kami dari kekuasaan bangsa-bangsa dan kumpulkanlah kami kembali supaya kami dapat bersyukur dan memuji nama-Mu yang suci!"
And say, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us, and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks to Your Holy Name, To triumph in Your praise.
36 Pujilah TUHAN, Allah Israel, sekarang dan selama-lamanya! Kemudian seluruh umat Israel berkata, "Amin", lalu mereka memuji TUHAN.
Blessed [is] YHWH, God of Israel, From age to age”; And all the people say, “Amen,” and have given praise to YHWH.
37 Kemudian Raja Daud menugaskan Asaf dan orang-orang Lewi lainnya untuk tetap mengurus hal-hal yang bersangkutan dengan ibadat di tempat di mana Peti Perjanjian TUHAN disimpan. Setiap hari mereka harus bertugas di situ,
And he leaves there [those] of Asaph and of his brothers, before the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, to minister before the Ark continually, according to the matter of a day in its day;
38 dibantu oleh Obed-Edom anak Yedutun, serta 68 orang lainnya yang sekaum dengan dia. Obed-Edom dan Hosa adalah pengawal pintu-pintu gerbang.
both Obed-Edom and their sixty-eight brothers, and Obed-Edom son of Jeduthun, and Hosah, for gatekeepers;
39 Tetapi Zadok dan imam-imam lainnya ditugaskan untuk tetap mengurus ibadat di tempat ibadat di Gibeon.
and Zadok the priest, and his brothers the priests, before the Dwelling Place of YHWH, in a high place that [is] in Gibeon,
40 Setiap pagi dan petang mereka harus mempersembahkan kurban bakaran di atas mezbah sesuai dengan hukum-hukum yang diberikan TUHAN kepada orang Israel.
to cause burnt-offerings to ascend continually to YHWH on the altar of burnt-offering, morning and evening, and for all that is written in the Law of YHWH that He charged on Israel.
41 Imam Zadok dan imam-imam itu dibantu oleh Heman dan Yedutun serta orang-orang lain yang khusus dipilih untuk menyanyikan pujian bagi TUHAN karena kasih-Nya yang kekal abadi.
And with them [are] Heman and Jeduthun, and the rest of those chosen, who were defined by name, to give thanks to YHWH, for His kindness [is] for all time;
42 Heman dan Yedutun juga bertugas atas trompet, simbal dan alat musik lainnya yang dimainkan untuk mengiringi nyanyian-nyanyian pujian. Anggota-anggota kaum Yedutun ditugaskan untuk menjaga pintu-pintu gerbang.
and with them—Heman and Jeduthun—[are] trumpets and cymbals for those sounding, and instruments of the song of God, and the sons of Jeduthun [are] at the gate.
43 Kemudian pulanglah semua orang ke rumahnya masing-masing. Begitu pula Daud pulang untuk menengok keluarganya.
And all the people go, each to his house, and David turns around to bless his house.
