2 Samuel 5
1 Setelah itu datanglah semua pemimpin suku-suku Israel kepada Daud di Hebron dan berkata kepadanya, "Kami ini kerabat Baginda.
Then all the tribes of Israel came to David in Hebron, saying: Behold we are thy bone and thy flesh.
2 Sejak dahulu, bahkan ketika Saul masih memerintah kami, Baginda juga yang memimpin tentara Israel setiap kali mereka maju berperang, lagipula TUHAN telah berjanji kepada Baginda bahwa Bagindalah yang akan memimpin umat-Nya dan menjadi raja mereka."
Moreover yesterday also and the day before, when Saul was king over us, thou wast he that did lead out and bring in Israel: and the Lord said to thee: Thou shalt feed my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over Israel.
3 Daud membuat perjanjian dengan pemimpin-pemimpin Israel itu di Hebron, lalu mereka melantik dia menjadi raja Israel.
The ancients also of Israel came to the king to Hebron, and king David made a league with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David to be king over Israel.
4 Daud berumur tiga puluh tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja, dan ia memerintah empat puluh tahun lamanya.
David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.
5 Di Hebron ia memerintah Yehuda selama tujuh setengah tahun, dan di Yerusalem ia memerintah seluruh Israel dan Yehuda selama tiga puluh tiga tahun.
In Hebron he reigned over Juda seven years and six months: and in Jerusalem he reigned three and thirty years over all Israel and Juda.
6 Pada suatu hari Raja Daud dan anak buahnya berangkat hendak menyerang Yerusalem. Orang Yebus penduduk kota itu, mengira bahwa Daud tidak akan dapat mengalahkan Yerusalem. Sebab itu mereka berkata kepadanya, "Engkau tidak akan dapat masuk ke mari; orang-orang buta dan orang-orang pincang pun sanggup mengusirmu."
And the king and all the men that were with him went to Jerusalem to the Jebusites the inhabitants of the land: and they said to David: Thou shalt not come in hither unless thou take away the blind and the lame that say: David shall not come in hither.
7 Daud berkata kepada anak buahnya, "Adakah di sini orang yang membenci orang Yebus sama seperti aku membenci mereka? Cukup bencikah dia sehingga ingin sekali membunuh mereka? Kalau begitu, masuklah melalui terowongan air dan seranglah orang-orang pincang dan buta yang kubenci itu." (Itulah sebabnya orang berkata, "Orang buta dan orang pincang tidak boleh masuk Rumah TUHAN.") Daud berhasil merebut benteng Sion dan mendudukinya. Ia menamakannya "Kota Daud". Kota itu dibangunnya di sekeliling benteng itu, mulai dari sebelah timur bukit yang ditinggikan dengan tanah.
But David took the castle of Sion, the same is the city of David.
For David had offered that day a reward to whosoever should strike the Jebusites and get up to the gutters of the tops of the houses, and take away the blind and the lame that hated the soul of David: therefore it is said in the proverb: The blind and the lame shall not come into the temple.
And David dwelt in the castle, and called it, The city of David: and built round about from Mello and inwards.
10 Daud makin lama makin kuat, karena TUHAN, Allah Yang Mahakuasa menolongnya.
And he went on prospering and growing up, and the Lord God of hosts was with him.
11 Raja Hiram dari negeri Tirus mengirim duta-dutanya kepada Daud, juga kayu cemara Libanon dan tukang-tukang kayu serta tukang-tukang batu untuk mendirikan istana.
And Hiram the king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters, and masons for walls: and they built a house for David.
12 Karena itu Daud merasa yakin bahwa TUHAN telah mengukuhkan dia sebagai raja Israel, dan menguatkan kerajaannya untuk kepentingan umat TUHAN.
And David knew that the Lord bad confirmed him king over Israel, and that he had exalted his kingdom over his people Israel.
13 Sesudah Daud pindah dari Hebron ke Yerusalem, ia memperistri lagi beberapa wanita dan mengambil beberapa wanita pula untuk selirnya; maka bertambahlah putra-putrinya.
And David took more concubines and wives of Jerusalem, after he was come from Hebron: and there were born to David other sons also and daughters:
14 Putra-putranya yang dilahirkan di Yerusalem adalah: Syamua, Sobab, Natan, Salomo,
And these are the names of them, that were born to him in Jerusalem, Samua, and Sobab, and Nathan, and Solomon,
15 Yibhar, Elisua, Nefeg, Yafia,
And Jebahar, and Elisua, and Nepheg,
16 Elisama, Elyada dan Elifelet.
And Japhia, and Elisama, and Elioda, and Eliphaleth.
17 Ketika orang Filistin mendengar bahwa Daud telah dijadikan raja Israel, mereka datang hendak menangkap dia. Tetapi Daud mendengar hal itu, lalu pergi ke benteng.
And the Philistines heard that they had anointed David to be king over Israel: and they all came to seek David: and when David heard of it, he went down to a strong hold.
18 Orang Filistin sampai di Lembah Refaim dan mendudukinya.
And the Philistines coming spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.
19 Daud bertanya kepada TUHAN, "Haruskah aku menyerang orang Filistin itu? Apakah Engkau akan memberikan kemenangan kepadaku?" "Seranglah!" jawab TUHAN. "Aku akan memberikan kemenangan kepadamu!"
And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I go up to the Philistines? and wilt thou deliver them into my hand? And the Lord said to David: Go up, for I will surely deliver the Philistines into thy hand.
20 Kemudian pergilah Daud ke Baal-Perasim dan di situ pasukan Filistin itu dikalahkannya. Lalu ia berkata, "TUHAN telah mendobrak pertahanan musuhku, seperti banjir merobohkan segalanya dalam seketika." Sebab itu tempat itu disebut Baal-Perasim.
And David came to Baal Pharisim: and defeated them there, and he said: The Lord hath divided my enemies before me, as waters are divided. Therefore the name of the place was called Baal Pharisim.
21 Pasukan Filistin lari tanpa sempat membawa patung-patung berhala mereka. Patung-patung itu diambil oleh Daud dan anak buahnya.
And they left there their idols: which David and his men took away.
22 Tidak lama kemudian orang Filistin datang lagi menduduki Lembah Refaim.
And the Philistines came up again and spread themselves in the valley of Raphaim.
23 Sekali lagi Daud meminta petunjuk kepada TUHAN. Jawab TUHAN, "Jangan menyerang mereka dari sini, tetapi berjalanlah memutar dan seranglah mereka dari belakang, dekat pohon-pohon murbei.
And David consulted the Lord: Shall I go up against the Philistines, and wilt thou deliver them into my hands? He answered: Go not up against them, but fetch a compass behind them, and thou shalt come upon them over against the pear trees.
24 Bilamana kaudengar bunyi seperti derap orang berbaris di puncak pohon-pohon itu, maka majulah, sebab Aku akan berjalan di depanmu untuk mengalahkan tentara Filistin."
And when thou shalt hear the sound of one going in the tops of the pear trees, then shalt thou join battle: for then will the Lord go out before thy face to strike the army of the Philistines.
25 Daud melaksanakan apa yang diperintahkan TUHAN, dan ia berhasil memukul mundur orang Filistin dari Geba sampai ke Gezer.
And David did as the Lord had commanded him, and he smote the Philistines from Gabaa until thou come to Gezer.
