Ulangan 28
1 "Kalau kamu mentaati TUHAN Allahmu dan setia melakukan segala perintah yang saya berikan kepadamu hari ini, maka Ia akan menjadikan kamu bangsa yang paling masyhur di dunia.
“And it has been, if you listen diligently to the voice of your God YHWH, to observe to do all His commands which I am commanding you today, that your God YHWH has made you highest above all the nations of the earth,
2 Taatilah TUHAN Allahmu, maka semua berkat ini akan diberikan kepadamu:
and all these blessings have come on you and overtaken you, because you listen to the voice of your God YHWH:
3 Diberkatilah kota-kota dan ladang-ladangmu.
Blessed [are] you in the city, and blessed [are] you in the field.
4 Diberkatilah kamu, sehingga anak-anakmu banyak, hasil tanahmu berlimpah dan sapi serta kambing dombamu berjumlah besar.
Blessed [is] the fruit of your womb, and the fruit of your ground, and the fruit of your livestock, the increase of your oxen, and the wealth of your flock.
5 Diberkatilah panen gandummu serta makanan yang kamu buat dari gandum itu.
Blessed [is] your basket and your kneading-trough.
6 Diberkatilah segala usahamu.
Blessed [are] you in your coming in, and blessed [are] you in your going out.
7 Jika kamu diserang, TUHAN akan mengalahkan musuhmu. Mereka akan melancarkan serangan dengan teratur, tetapi lari dengan berantakan.
YHWH makes your enemies, who are rising up against you, to be struck before your face; in one way they come out to you, and in seven ways they flee before you.
8 TUHAN Allahmu akan memberkati usahamu dan mengisi lumbung-lumbungmu dengan gandum. Ia akan memberkati kamu di negeri yang diberikan-Nya kepadamu.
YHWH commands the blessing with you in your storehouses, and in every putting forth of your hand, and has blessed you in the land which your God YHWH is giving to you.
9 Kalau kamu mentaati TUHAN Allahmu dan melakukan segala perintah-Nya, kamu akan dijadikan umat-Nya sendiri, seperti yang dijanjikan-Nya.
YHWH establishes you to Himself for a holy people, as He has sworn to you, when you keep the commands of your God YHWH and have walked in His ways;
10 Maka semua bangsa di bumi akan melihat bahwa kamu bangsa pilihan TUHAN, dan mereka akan menyegani kamu.
and all the peoples of the land have seen that the Name of YHWH is called by you, and they have been afraid of you.
11 Kamu akan dianugerahi banyak anak. Ternakmu akan banyak dan hasil tanahmu berlimpah di negeri yang dijanjikan TUHAN kepada nenek moyangmu untuk diberikan kepadamu.
And YHWH has made you abundant in good, in the fruit of the womb, and in the fruit of your livestock, and in the fruit of your ground, on the ground which YHWH has sworn to your fathers to give to you.
12 TUHAN akan menurunkan hujan pada musimnya dari tempat penyimpanan-Nya yang berlimpah di langit. Ia akan memberkati segala usahamu, sehingga kamu dapat memberi pinjaman kepada banyak bangsa, tetapi kamu sendiri tidak usah meminjam.
YHWH opens his good treasure to you—the heavens—to give the rain of your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand, and you have lent to many nations, and you do not borrow.
13 TUHAN Allahmu akan menjadikan kamu pemimpin di antara bangsa-bangsa, dan bukan pengikut. Kalau kamu setia mentaati semua perintah TUHAN yang saya berikan kepadamu hari ini, kamu akan semakin makmur dan tak pernah mundur.
And YHWH has set you for head and not for tail; and you have been only above, and are not beneath, for you listen to the commands of your God YHWH, which I am commanding you today, to keep and to do,
14 Tetapi jangan sekali-kali melalaikan perintah-perintah itu dengan cara bagaimanapun juga. Jangan juga memuja dan mengabdi kepada ilah-ilah lain."
and you do not turn aside from all the words which I am commanding you today [to] the right or left, to go after other gods, to serve them.
15 "Tetapi kalau kamu tidak mentaati TUHAN Allahmu, dan tidak setia melakukan segala perintah dan hukum-Nya yang saya berikan kepadamu hari ini, maka segala kutuk ini akan menimpa kamu:
And it has been, if you do not listen to the voice of your God YHWH, to observe to do all His commands and His statutes which I am commanding you today, that all these revilings have come on you and overtaken you:
16 Terkutuklah kota-kota dan ladang-ladangmu.
Cursed [are] you in the city, and cursed [are] you in the field.
17 Terkutuklah panen gandummu dan makanan yang kamu buat dari gandum itu.
Cursed [is] your basket and your kneading-trough.
18 Terkutuklah kamu, sehingga hanya sedikit anakmu, hasil tanahmu, serta sapi dan kambing dombamu.
Cursed [is] the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your land, the increase of your oxen, and the wealth of your flock.
19 Terkutuklah segala usahamu.
Cursed [are] you in your coming in, and cursed [are] you in your going out.
20 Kalau kamu berbuat jahat dan menolak TUHAN, Ia akan mendatangkan bencana, kekacauan dan kesulitan dalam segala yang kamu lakukan, sehingga dalam waktu singkat saja kamu dibinasakan sama sekali.
YHWH sends the curse, the trouble, and the rebuke on you, in every putting forth of your hand which you do, until you are destroyed, and until you perish quickly, because of the evil of your doings [by] which you have forsaken Me.
21 Penyakit demi penyakit akan menimpa kamu, sampai akhirnya tak seorang pun dari kamu masih tinggal di negeri yang kamu duduki itu.
YHWH causes the pestilence to cleave to you until He consumes you from off the ground to where you are going in to possess it.
22 TUHAN akan menghukum kamu dengan penyakit-penyakit menular, bengkak-bengkak dan demam. Ia akan mendatangkan kekeringan dan angin yang menghanguskan sehingga panenmu rusak. Bencana-bencana itu terus menimpa kamu sampai kamu binasa.
YHWH strikes you with consumption, and with fever, and with inflammation, and with extreme burning, and with sword, and with blasting, and with mildew, and they have pursued you until you perish
23 Hujan tak akan turun dan tanahmu menjadi keras seperti besi.
And your heavens which [are] over your head have been bronze, and the earth which [is] under you iron;
24 TUHAN tak akan menurunkan hujan air, melainkan hujan debu dan pasir sampai kamu habis binasa.
YHWH gives dust and ashes [for] the rain of your land; it comes down on you from the heavens until you are destroyed.
25 Kalau kamu tidak mentaati TUHAN Allahmu, Ia akan membuat kamu dikalahkan musuh-musuhmu. Kamu akan melancarkan serangan dengan teratur, tetapi lari dengan berantakan. Semua bangsa di bumi akan merasa ngeri melihat kemalanganmu.
YHWH makes you struck before your enemies; in one way you go out to them, and in seven ways you flee before them, and you have been for a trembling to all kingdoms of the earth;
26 Kalau kamu mati, mayatmu menjadi makanan burung-burung dan binatang buas, dan tidak ada yang mengusir binatang-binatang itu.
and your carcass has been for food for every bird of the heavens and for the beast of the earth, and there is none causing [them] to tremble.
27 TUHAN akan menghukum kamu dengan bisul-bisul seperti yang dilakukan-Nya terhadap orang Mesir. Badanmu akan penuh dengan borok dan kudis yang gatal, tetapi tak ada obatnya.
YHWH strikes you with the ulcer of Egypt, and with lumps, and with scurvy, and with itch, of which you are not able to be healed.
28 TUHAN akan membuat kamu menjadi gila, buta dan kebingungan.
YHWH strikes you with madness, and with blindness, and with astonishment of heart;
29 Di siang bolong kamu meraba-raba seperti orang buta, tetapi tak dapat menemukan jalan. Segala usahamu akan gagal. Kamu terus-menerus ditindas dan dirampok, dan tidak ada yang menolong kamu.
and you have been groping at noon, as the blind gropes in darkness; and you do not cause your ways to prosper; and you have been only oppressed and plundered [for] all the days, and there is no savior.
30 Kalau kamu tidak mentaati TUHAN Allahmu, hal-hal ini akan menimpa dirimu: Kamu akan bertunangan, tetapi orang lain kawin dengan tunanganmu. Kamu akan membangun rumah, tetapi tidak mendiaminya. Kamu akan menanami kebun anggur tetapi tidak makan buah-buahnya.
You betroth a woman, and another man lies with her; you build a house, and do not dwell in it; you plant a vineyard, and do not make it common;
31 Sapimu akan disembelih di depan matamu, tetapi kamu tidak makan dagingnya. Keledai-keledaimu akan digiring pergi sementara kamu memandanginya dan tak akan dikembalikan. Domba-dombamu akan diberikan kepada musuh-musuhmu dan tak ada yang menolong.
your ox [is] slaughtered before your eyes, and you do not eat of it; your donkey [is] violently taken away from before you, and it is not given back to you; your sheep [are] given to your enemies, and there is no savior for you.
32 Di depan matamu anak-anakmu akan diberikan sebagai budak kepada orang asing. Tiap hari matamu pedih mencari anak-anakmu, tetapi usahamu sia-sia, sebab mereka tidak akan kembali.
Your sons and your daughters [are] given to another people, and your eyes are looking and consumed for them all the day, but your hand is not to God!
33 Bangsa asing akan mengambil semua hasil tanah yang kamu peroleh dengan kerja keras, tetapi kamu sendiri tidak mendapat apa-apa selain penindasan terus-menerus dan perlakuan yang kejam.
A people whom you have not known eat the fruit of your ground and all your labor; and you have been only oppressed and bruised [for] all the days;
34 Kamu akan menjadi gila karena apa yang kamu alami.
and you have been mad because of the sight of your eyes which you see.
35 TUHAN akan membuat kakimu penuh borok-borok yang sakit dan tak dapat sembuh; dari kaki sampai ujung kepala kamu akan penuh bisul-bisul.
YHWH strikes you with a severe ulcer on the knees and on the legs (of which you are not able to be healed), from the sole of your foot even to your crown.
36 Kamu dan rajamu akan dibawa TUHAN ke negeri asing yang tidak kamu kenal dan tidak pula dikenal nenek moyangmu. Di situ kamu akan mengabdi kepada ilah-ilah yang dibuat dari kayu dan batu.
YHWH causes you and your king whom you raise up over you to go to a nation which you have not known, you and your fathers, and you have served other gods there—wood and stone;
37 Di negeri-negeri tempat kamu diceraiberaikan TUHAN, orang-orang akan ngeri melihat kamu; kamu akan diolok-olok dan ditertawakan mereka.
and you have been for an astonishment, for an allegory, and for a byword among all the peoples to where YHWH leads you.
38 Banyak benih yang kamu taburkan, tetapi sedikit hasil yang kamu peroleh, karena tanamanmu habis dimakan belalang.
You take much seed out into the field, and you gather little in, for the locust consumes it;
39 Kamu akan menanami kebun-kebun anggur dan memeliharanya, tetapi tidak memetik buah anggur atau minum air anggurnya, karena pohon-pohon anggur itu habis dimakan ulat.
you plant vineyards and have labored, but you do not drink wine, nor gather [grapes], for the worm consumes it;
40 Di seluruh negerimu tumbuh pohon zaitun, tetapi buah-buahnya akan gugur, sehingga kamu tidak memperoleh minyaknya.
olives are yours in all your border, but you do not pour out oil, for your olive falls off.
41 Kamu akan mendapat anak-anak laki-laki dan perempuan, tetapi mereka diambil sebagai tawanan perang, sehingga kamu kehilangan mereka.
You beget sons and daughters, but they are not with you, for they go into captivity;
42 Semua pohon dan tanamanmu akan habis dimakan serangga.
the locust possesses all your trees and the fruit of your ground;
43 Orang asing yang tinggal di negerimu akan semakin berkuasa, sedangkan kuasamu sendiri semakin berkurang.
the sojourner who [is] in your midst goes up very high above you, and you go down very low;
44 Mereka punya uang untuk dipinjamkan kepadamu, tetapi kamu tidak punya apa-apa untuk dipinjamkan kepada mereka. Dan akhirnya kamu dikuasai mereka.
he lends [to] you, and you do not lend [to] him; he is for head and you are for tail.
45 Segala malapetaka itu akan menimpa kamu dan terus mengganggu kamu sampai kamu binasa, karena kamu tidak taat kepada TUHAN Allahmu dan tidak melakukan hukum-hukum yang diberikan-Nya kepadamu.
And all these curses have come on you, and pursued you, and overtaken you, until you are destroyed, because you have not listened to the voice of your God YHWH, to keep His commands and His statutes which he has commanded you;
46 Bencana-bencana itu merupakan bukti dari hukuman TUHAN atas kamu dan keturunanmu untuk selama-lamanya.
and they have been on you for a sign and for a wonder, also on your seed—for all time.
47 Kamu sudah diberkati TUHAN Allahmu dalam segala hal, tetapi tidak mau mengabdi kepada-Nya dengan hati yang ikhlas dan gembira.
Because that you have not served your God YHWH with joy and with gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things—
48 Karena itu kamu harus mengabdi kepada musuh-musuh yang dikirim TUHAN untuk melawan kamu. Kamu akan kelaparan, kehausan dan telanjang serta berkekurangan dalam segala hal. TUHAN akan menindas kamu dengan kejam sampai kamu binasa.
you have served your enemies, whom YHWH sends against you, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in lack of all things; and He has put a yoke of iron on your neck until He has destroyed you.
49 Suatu bangsa yang tidak kamu mengerti bahasanya akan didatangkan TUHAN dari ujung bumi untuk melawan kamu. Seperti burung rajawali mereka akan menyambar kamu.
YHWH lifts up a nation against you from afar, from the end of the earth—it flies as the eagle—a nation whose tongue you have not heard,
50 Mereka kejam dan tidak menaruh kasihan kepada orang tua-tua maupun anak-anak.
a nation of fierce countenance, which does not accept the face of the aged and does not favor the young;
51 Mereka akan menghabiskan ternak dan hasil tanahmu, dan tidak meninggalkan bagimu gandum, air anggur, minyak zaitun atau sapi dan kambing dombamu sampai kamu mati kelaparan.
and it has eaten the fruit of your livestock and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed; which does not leave to you grain, new wine, and oil, the increase of your oxen, and the wealth of your flock, until it has destroyed you.
52 Mereka akan menyerang setiap kota di negeri yang diberikan TUHAN Allahmu kepadamu sehingga tembok-temboknya yang tinggi dan diperkuat yang kamu andalkan itu runtuh.
And it has laid siege to you in all your gates until your walls come down—the high and the fortified ones in which you are trusting, in all your land; indeed, it has laid siege to you in all your gates, in all your land which your God YHWH has given to you.
53 Sementara musuh-musuhmu mengepung kota-kotamu, kamu akan putus asa karena kelaparan, sehingga kamu memakan anak-anakmu sendiri, anak-anak yang dianugerahkan TUHAN Allahmu kepadamu.
And you have eaten the fruit of your body, [the] flesh of your sons and your daughters (whom your God YHWH has given to you), in the siege and in the constriction with which your enemies constrict you.
54 Bahkan orang bangsawan yang paling luhur budinya akan putus asa selama pengepungan itu, sehingga ia makan anak-anaknya sendiri karena tidak ada makanan lain. Tak sedikit pun ia berikan kepada saudaranya atau istrinya yang dicintainya atau anak-anaknya yang masih hidup.
The man who is tender in you, and who [is] very delicate—his eye is evil against his brother, and against the wife of his bosom, and against the remnant of his sons whom he leaves,
against giving to one of them of the flesh of his sons whom he eats, because he has nothing left for himself in the siege and in the constriction with which your enemy constricts you in all your gates.
56 Bahkan wanita bangsawan yang paling luhur budinya dan yang sangat kaya sehingga tak pernah harus berjalan kaki, akan berbuat begitu juga. Pada waktu musuh mengepung kota, wanita itu akan putus asa karena kelaparan, sehingga ia dengan sembunyi-sembunyi makan anaknya yang baru lahir dan ari-arinya. Tidak sedikit pun ia berikan kepada suaminya yang dicintainya atau kepada anak-anaknya.
The tender woman in you, and the delicate, who has not tried the sole of her foot to place on the ground because of delicateness and because of tenderness—her eye is evil against the husband of her bosom, and against her son, and against her daughter,
and against her seed which comes out from between her feet, even against her sons whom she bears, for she eats them in secret, in the lacking of everything, in the siege and in the constriction with which your enemy constricts you within your gates.
58 Kalau kamu tidak setia mentaati semua hukum TUHAN Allahmu yang tertulis dalam buku ini dan tidak menghormati TUHAN Allahmu yang agung dan menakjubkan,
If you do not observe to do all the words of this law which are written in this scroll, to fear this honored and fearful Name—your God YHWH—
59 TUHAN akan mendatangkan atas kamu dan keturunanmu penyakit-penyakit yang tak dapat disembuhkan dan wabah-wabah yang tak dapat dihentikan.
then YHWH has made your strokes extraordinary, and the strokes [against] your seed [are] great strokes that are persisting and severe sicknesses that are persisting.
60 Penyakit-penyakit mengerikan yang kamu saksikan di Mesir akan menimpa kamu, dan kamu tak dapat sembuh.
And He has brought back all the diseases of Egypt on you, from the presence of which you have been afraid, and they have cleaved to you.
61 TUHAN juga akan mendatangkan macam-macam penyakit dan wabah yang tidak disebut dalam buku ini, buku Hukum TUHAN. Lalu kamu akan dibinasakan.
Also every sickness and every stroke which is not written in the scroll of this law—YHWH causes them to go up on you until you are destroyed,
62 Walaupun jumlahmu sudah sebanyak bintang di langit, hanya sedikit saja di antara kamu yang masih hidup, karena kamu tidak taat kepada TUHAN Allahmu.
and you have been left with few men, whereas that you would have been as stars of the heavens for multitude, for you have not listened to the voice of your God YHWH.
63 Seperti TUHAN senang memberi kemakmuran kepadamu dan menambah jumlahmu, Ia akan senang membinasakan dan memusnahkan kamu. Kamu akan dicabut dari negeri yang tak lama lagi kamu duduki.
And it has been, as YHWH has rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you, so YHWH rejoices over you to destroy you and to lay you waste; and you have been pulled away from off the ground to where you are going in to possess it;
64 TUHAN akan menceraiberaikan kamu di antara bangsa-bangsa di seluruh muka bumi. Di sana kamu akan menyembah ilah-ilah yang dibuat dari kayu dan batu, ilah-ilah yang tidak kamu kenal dan tidak pula dikenal nenek moyangmu.
and YHWH has scattered you among all the peoples, from the end of the earth even to the [other] end of the earth; and you have served other gods there which you have not known, you and your fathers—wood and stone.
65 Di antara bangsa-bangsa itu kamu tak akan menemukan ketentraman, dan tak ada tempat yang dapat kamu sebut milikmu; TUHAN akan membuat kamu sangat cemas dan putus asa tanpa harapan.
And you do not rest among those nations, indeed, there is no resting place for the sole of your foot, and YHWH has given to you a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and grief of soul there;
66 Hidupmu akan selalu terancam bahaya. Siang malam kamu merasa ngeri dan takut mati.
and your life has been hanging in suspense before you, and you have been afraid by night and by day, and you do not have assurance in your life;
67 Waktu melihat apa saja jantungmu berdebar-debar karena takut. Pagi-pagi kamu mengharapkan malam, dan malam-malam kamu mengharapkan pagi.
in the morning you say, O that it were evening! And in the evening you say, O that it were morning! (From the fear of your heart, with which you are afraid, and from the sight of your eyes which you see.)
68 TUHAN akan mengirim kamu kembali ke Mesir dengan kapal, biarpun Ia telah berkata bahwa kamu tak akan kembali lagi ke sana. Di sana kamu akan berusaha menjual dirimu sebagai budak kepada musuhmu, tetapi tak seorang pun mau membeli kamu."
And YHWH has brought you back to Egypt in ships, by the way of which I said to you, You do not add to see it anymore; and you have sold yourselves to your enemies there, for menservants and for maidservants, and there is no buyer.”
