1 Raja-raja 13
1 Sedang Yerobeam berdiri di atas mezbah itu sambil membakar korban, maka atas perintah TUHAN datanglah seorang abdi Allah dari Yehuda ke Betel.
And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of Yhwh unto Beth–el: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.
2 Lalu atas perintah TUHAN berserulah orang itu terhadap mezbah itu, katanya: "Hai mezbah, hai mezbah! Beginilah firman TUHAN: Bahwasanya seorang anak akan lahir pada keluarga Daud, Yosia namanya; ia akan menyembelih di atasmu imam-imam bukit pengorbanan yang membakar korban di atasmu, juga tulang-tulang manusia akan dibakar di atasmu."
And he cried against the altar in the word of Yhwh, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith Yhwh; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men’s bones shall be burnt upon thee.
3 Pada waktu itu juga ia memberitahukan suatu tanda ajaib, katanya: "Inilah tanda ajaib, bahwa TUHAN telah berfirman: Bahwasanya mezbah itu akan pecah, sehingga tercurah abu yang di atasnya."
And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This is the sign which Yhwh hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that are upon it shall be poured out.
4 Demi raja Yerobeam mendengar perkataan abdi Allah yang diserukannya terhadap mezbah di Betel itu, ia mengulurkan tangannya dari atas mezbah dan berkata: "Tangkaplah dia!" Tetapi tangan yang diulurkannya terhadap orang itu menjadi kejang, sehingga tidak dapat ditariknya kembali.
And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Beth–el, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.
5 Mezbah itupun pecahlah, sehingga abu yang di atasnya tercurah, sesuai dengan tanda ajaib yang diberitahukan abdi Allah itu atas perintah TUHAN.
The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of Yhwh.
6 Lalu berbicaralah raja dan berkata kepada abdi Allah itu: "Mohonkanlah belas kasihan TUHAN, Allahmu, dan berdoalah untukku, supaya tanganku dapat kembali." Dan abdi Allah itu memohonkan belas kasihan TUHAN, maka tangan raja itu dapat kembali dan menjadi seperti semula.
And the king answered and said unto the man of God, Intreat now the face of Yhwh thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. And the man of God besought Yhwh, and the king’s hand was restored him again, and became as it was before.
7 Kemudian berbicaralah raja kepada abdi Allah itu: "Marilah bersama-sama dengan aku ke rumah, segarkan badanmu, sesudah itu aku hendak memberikan suatu hadiah kepadamu."
And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward.
8 Tetapi abdi Allah itu berkata kepada raja: "Sekalipun setengah dari istanamu kauberikan kepadaku, aku tidak mau singgah kepadamu; juga aku tidak mau makan roti atau minum air di tempat ini.
And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place:
9 Sebab beginilah diperintahkan kepadaku atas firman TUHAN: Jangan makan roti atau minum air dan jangan kembali melalui jalan yang telah kautempuh itu."
For so was it charged me by the word of Yhwh, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest.
10 Lalu pergilah ia melalui jalan lain dan tidak kembali melalui jalan yang telah diambilnya untuk datang ke Betel.
So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Beth–el.
11 Di Betel diam seorang nabi tua. Anak-anaknya datang menceritakan kepadanya segala perbuatan yang dilakukan abdi Allah pada hari itu di Betel. Mereka menceriterakan juga kepada ayah mereka perkataan yang dikatakannya kepada raja.
Now there dwelt an old prophet in Beth–el; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Beth–el: the words which he had spoken unto the king, them they told also to their father.
12 Kemudian ayah mereka bertanya: "Dari jalan manakah ia pergi?" Lalu anak-anaknya menunjukkan kepadanya jalan yang diambil abdi Allah yang datang dari Yehuda itu.
And their father said unto them, What way went he? For his sons had seen what way the man of God went, which came from Judah.
13 Ia berkata kepada anak-anaknya: "Pelanai keledai bagiku!" Mereka memelanai keledai baginya, lalu ia menunggangnya
And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the donkey. So they saddled him the donkey: and he rode thereon,
14 dan pergi mengikuti abdi Allah itu dan mendapatinya duduk di bawah sebuah pohon besar. Ia bertanya kepadanya: "Engkaukah abdi Allah yang telah datang dari Yehuda?" Jawabnya: "Ya, akulah itu."
And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said unto him, Art thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I am.
15 Katanya kepadanya: "Marilah bersama-sama aku ke rumah untuk makan roti."
Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and eat bread.
16 Tetapi jawabnya: "Aku tidak dapat kembali bersama-sama engkau dan singgah kepadamu; aku tidak dapat makan roti atau minum air bersama-sama engkau di tempat ini,
And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place:
17 sebab telah diperintahkan kepadaku atas firman TUHAN: Jangan makan roti atau minum air di sana. Jangan berjalan pulang melalui jalan yang telah kauambil itu."
For it was said to me by the word of Yhwh, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest.
18 Lalu jawabnya kepadanya: "Akupun seorang nabi juga seperti engkau, dan atas perintah TUHAN seorang malaikat telah berkata kepadaku: Bawa dia pulang bersama-sama engkau ke rumahmu, supaya ia makan roti dan minum air." Tetapi ia berbohong kepadanya.
He said unto him, I am a prophet also as thou art; and an angel spake unto me by the word of Yhwh, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water. But he lied unto him.
19 Kemudian orang itu kembali bersama-sama dia, lalu makan roti dan minum air di rumahnya.
So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water.
20 Sedang mereka duduk menghadapi meja, datanglah firman TUHAN kepada nabi yang telah membawa dia pulang.
And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word of Yhwh came unto the prophet that brought him back:
21 Ia berseru kepada abdi Allah yang telah datang dari Yehuda: "Beginilah firman TUHAN: Karena engkau telah memberontak terhadap titah TUHAN dan tidak berpegang pada segala perintah yang diperintahkan kepadamu oleh TUHAN, Allahmu,
And he cried unto the man of God that came from Judah, saying, Thus saith Yhwh, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed the mouth of Yhwh, and hast not kept the commandment which Yhwh thy God commanded thee,
22 tetapi kembali dan makan roti dan minum air di tempat ini walaupun Ia telah berfirman kepadamu: Jangan makan roti atau minum air, --maka mayatmu tidak akan masuk ke dalam kubur nenek moyangmu."
But camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water in the place, of the which the Lord did say to thee, Eat no bread, and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come unto the sepulchre of thy fathers.
23 Setelah orang itu makan roti dan minum air, dipelanailah keledai baginya.
And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the donkey, to wit, for the prophet whom he had brought back.
24 Orang itu pergi, tetapi di tengah jalan ia diserang seekor singa dan mati diterkam. Mayatnya tercampak di jalan dan keledai itu berdiri di sampingnya; singa itupun berdiri di samping mayat itu.
And when he was gone, a lion met him by the way, and slew him: and his carcase was cast in the way, and the donkey stood by it, the lion also stood by the carcase.
25 Orang-orang yang lewat melihat mayat itu tercampak di jalan dan singa berdiri di sampingnya. Dan mereka menceriterakannya di kota tempat kediaman nabi tua itu.
And, behold, men passed by, and saw the carcase cast in the way, and the lion standing by the carcase: and they came and told it in the city where the old prophet dwelt.
26 Ketika hal itu kedengaran kepada nabi yang telah membujuk dia berbalik kembali, ia berkata: "Dialah abdi Allah yang telah memberontak terhadap titah TUHAN. TUHAN menyerahkan dia kepada singa, yang mencabik dan membunuhnya sesuai dengan firman TUHAN yang diucapkan-Nya kepadanya."
And when the prophet that brought him back from the way heard thereof, he said, It is the man of God, who was disobedient unto the word of Yhwh: Therefore Yhwh hath delivered him unto the lion, which hath torn him, and slain him, according to the word of Yhwh, which he spake unto him.
27 Lalu berbicaralah ia kepada anak-anaknya: "Pelanailah keledai bagiku." Dan mereka memelanainya.
And he spake to his sons, saying, Saddle me the donkey. And they saddled him.
28 Kemudian ia pergi dan menemukan mayat orang itu tercampak di jalan, sedang keledai dan singa berdiri di sampingnya. Singa itu tidak memakan mayat itu dan tidak mencabik keledai itu.
And he went and found his carcase cast in the way, and the donkey and the lion standing by the carcase: the lion had not eaten the carcase, nor torn the donkey.
29 Nabi tua itu mengangkat mayat abdi Allah itu, menaruhnya ke atas keledai dan membawanya kembali ke kotanya sendiri untuk diratapi dan dikuburkan.
And the prophet took up the carcase of the man of God, and laid it upon the donkey, and brought it back: and the old prophet came to the city, to mourn and to bury him.
30 Mayat orang itu dikuburkannya di dalam kuburnya sendiri, maka diratapilah dia: "Wahai, saudaraku!"
And he laid his carcase in his own grave; and they mourned over him, saying, Alas, my brother!
31 Setelah ia menguburkannya, ia berkata kepada anak-anaknya: "Kalau aku mati, kuburkanlah aku dalam kubur ini bersama dengan abdi Allah itu, dan taruhlah tulang-tulangku di sisi tulang-tulangnya.
And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he spake to his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the sepulchre wherein the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones:
32 Sebab perkataan yang atas perintah TUHAN telah diserukannya terhadap mezbah yang di Betel itu dan terhadap segala kuil di bukit-bukit pengorbanan yang di kota-kota Samaria akan betul-betul terjadi."
For the saying which he cried by the word of Yhwh against the altar in Beth–el, and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely come to pass.
33 Sesudah peristiwa inipun Yerobeam tidak berbalik dari kelakuannya yang jahat itu, tetapi mengangkat pula imam-imam dari kalangan rakyat untuk bukit-bukit pengorbanan. Siapa yang mau saja, ditahbiskannya menjadi imam untuk bukit-bukit pengorbanan.
After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became one of the priests of the high places.
34 Dan tindakan itu menjadi dosa bagi keluarga Yerobeam, sehingga mereka dilenyapkan dan dipunahkan dari muka bumi.
And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.
