1 Samuel 18
1 Ketika Daud habis berbicara dengan Saul, berpadulah jiwa Yonatan dengan jiwa Daud; dan Yonatan mengasihi dia seperti jiwanya sendiri.
And it happened that, when he had completed speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan adhered to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him like his own soul.
2 Pada hari itu Saul membawa dia dan tidak membiarkannya pulang ke rumah ayahnya.
And Saul took him that day, and would not permit him to return to his father’s house.
3 Yonatan mengikat perjanjian dengan Daud, karena ia mengasihi dia seperti dirinya sendiri.
Then David and Jonathan formed a pact. For he loved him like his own soul.
4 Yonatan menanggalkan jubah yang dipakainya, dan memberikannya kepada Daud, juga baju perangnya, sampai pedangnya, panahnya dan ikat pinggangnya.
And Jonathan took off the coat that he was wearing, and he gave it to David, with the rest of his garments, even to his sword and bow, and even his belt.
5 Daud maju berperang dan selalu berhasil ke mana juga Saul menyuruhnya, sehingga Saul mengangkat dia mengepalai para prajurit. Hal ini dipandang baik oleh seluruh rakyat dan juga oleh pegawai-pegawai Saul.
Also, David went out to do everything whatsoever that Saul sent him to do, and he conducted himself prudently. And Saul set him over men of war. And he was acceptable in the eyes of the entire people, and most of all in the sight of the servants of Saul.
6 Tetapi pada waktu mereka pulang, ketika Daud kembali sesudah mengalahkan orang Filistin itu, keluarlah orang-orang perempuan dari segala kota Israel menyongsong raja Saul sambil menyanyi dan menari-nari dengan memukul rebana, dengan bersukaria dan dengan membunyikan gerincing;
Now when David returned, after he had struck down the Philistine, the women went out, from all the cities of Israel, leading the singing and dancing, rejoicing with timbrels and bells, so as to meet king Saul.
7 dan perempuan yang menari-nari itu menyanyi berbalas-balasan, katanya: "Saul mengalahkan beribu-ribu musuh, tetapi Daud berlaksa-laksa."
And the women sang, as they played, saying, “Saul has struck down a thousand, and David ten thousand.”
8 Lalu bangkitlah amarah Saul dengan sangat; dan perkataan itu menyebalkan hatinya, sebab pikirnya: "Kepada Daud diperhitungkan mereka berlaksa-laksa, tetapi kepadaku diperhitungkannya beribu-ribu; akhir-akhirnya jabatan raja itupun jatuh kepadanya."
Then Saul became exceedingly angry, and this word was displeasing in his eyes. And he said: “They have given David ten thousand, and to me they gave only one thousand. What is left for him, except the kingdom itself?”
9 Sejak hari itu maka Saul selalu mendengki Daud.
Therefore, Saul did not regard David with a good eye, from that day and thereafter.
10 Keesokan harinya roh jahat yang dari pada Allah itu berkuasa atas Saul, sehingga ia kerasukan di tengah-tengah rumah, sedang Daud main kecapi seperti sehari-hari. Adapun Saul ada tombak di tangannya.
Then, on the next day, the evil spirit from God assailed Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of his house. And David played with his hand, just as at every other time. And Saul held a lance in his hand.
11 Saul melemparkan tombak itu, karena pikirnya: "Baiklah aku menancapkan Daud ke dinding." Tetapi Daud mengelakkannya sampai dua kali.
And he threw it, thinking that he would be able to fix David to the wall. And David stepped aside twice, from before his face.
12 Saul menjadi takut kepada Daud, karena TUHAN menyertai Daud, sedang dari pada Saul Ia telah undur.
And Saul feared David, because the Lord was with him, but he had withdrawn from Saul.
13 Sebab itu Saul menjauhkan Daud dari dekatnya dan mengangkat dia menjadi kepala pasukan seribu, sehingga ia berada di depan dalam segala gerakan tentara.
Therefore, Saul sent him away from himself, and he made him tribune over one thousand men. And he entered and departed in the sight of the people.
14 Daud berhasil di segala perjalanannya, sebab TUHAN menyertai dia.
Also, David acted prudently in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.
15 Ketika dilihat Saul, bahwa Daud sangat berhasil, makin takutlah ia kepadanya;
And so, Saul saw that he was exceedingly prudent, and he began to be wary of him.
16 tetapi seluruh orang Israel dan orang Yehuda mengasihi Daud, karena ia memimpin segala gerakan mereka.
But all of Israel and Judah loved David. For he entered and departed before them.
17 Berkatalah Saul kepada Daud: "Ini dia anakku perempuan yang tertua, Merab; dia akan kuberikan kepadamu menjadi isterimu, hanya jadilah bagiku seorang yang gagah perkasa dan lakukanlah perang TUHAN." Sebab pikir Saul: "Janganlah tanganku memukul dia, tetapi biarlah ia dipukul oleh tangan orang Filistin."
And Saul said to David: “Behold, my elder daughter, Merab. I will give her to you as wife. Only be a valiant man, and fight the wars of the Lord.” Now Saul was considering within himself, saying, “Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hands of the Philistines be upon him.”
18 Tetapi Daud berkata kepada Saul: "Siapakah aku dan siapakah sanak saudaraku, kaum ayahku, di antara orang Israel, sehingga aku menjadi menantu raja?"
Then David said to Saul, “Who am I, and what is my life, and what is my father’s kinship within Israel, that I should be the son-in-law of the king?”
19 Tetapi ketika tiba waktunya untuk memberikan Merab, anak Saul itu, kepada Daud, maka anak perempuan itu diberikan kepada Adriel, orang Mehola, menjadi isterinya.
Then it happened that, at the time when Merab, the daughter of Saul, was to be given to David, she was given to Adriel, the Meholathite, as wife.
20 Tetapi Mikhal, anak perempuan Saul, jatuh cinta kepada Daud; ketika hal itu diberitahukan kepada Saul, maka iapun menyetujuinya;
Now Michal, the other daughter of Saul, loved David. And this was reported to Saul, and it pleased him.
21 sebab pikir Saul: "Baiklah Mikhal kuberikan kepadanya; biarlah ia menjadi jerat bagi Daud, dan biarlah tangan orang Filistin memukul dia!" Lalu berkatalah Saul kepada Daud untuk kedua kalinya: "Pada hari ini engkau boleh menjadi menantuku."
And Saul said, “I will give her to him, so that she may be a stumbling block to him, and so that the hand of the Philistines may be upon him.” And Saul said to David, “In two things, you shall be my son-in-law today.”
22 Lagi Saul memerintahkan kepada para pegawainya: "Katakanlah kepada Daud dengan diam-diam, demikian: Sesungguhnya, raja suka kepadamu dan para pegawainya mengasihi engkau; maka sebab itu, jadilah engkau menantu raja."
And Saul commanded his servants to speak to David privately, saying: “Behold, you are pleasing to the king, and all his servants love you. Now therefore, be the son-in-law of the king.”
23 Lalu para pegawai Saul menyampaikan perkataan itu kepada Daud, tetapi Daud menjawab: "Perkara ringankah pada pemandanganmu menjadi menantu raja? Bukankah aku seorang yang miskin dan rendah?"
And the servants of Saul spoke all these words to the ears of David. And David said: “Does it seem a small matter to you, to be the son-in-law of the king? I am but a poor and unimportant man.”
24 Para pegawai Saul memberitahukan kepada raja, katanya: "Demikianlah jawab yang diberi Daud."
And the servants reported to Saul, saying, “David has spoken words in this manner.”
25 Kemudian berkatalah Saul: "Beginilah kamu katakan kepada Daud: Raja tidak menghendaki mas kawin selain dari seratus kulit khatan orang Filistin sebagai pembalasan kepada musuh raja." Saul bermaksud untuk menjatuhkan Daud dengan perantaraan orang Filistin.
Then Saul said, “Speak in this way to David: The king does not have need of any dowry, but only one hundred foreskins from the Philistine men, so that he may be vindicated from the enemies of the king.” So did Saul think to deliver David into the hands of the Philistines.
26 Ketika para pegawainya memberitahukan perkataan itu kepada Daud, maka setujulah Daud menjadi menantu raja. Waktunya belum genap,
And when his servants had repeated to David the words that Saul had spoken, the word was pleasing in the eyes of David, so that he would become son-in-law of the king.
27 tetapi Daud sudah bersiap, ia pergi dengan orang-orangnya dan menewaskan dari orang Filistin itu dua ratus orang serta membawa kulit khatan mereka; dan dalam jumlah yang genap diberikan merekalah semuanya itu kepada raja, supaya Daud menjadi menantu raja. Kemudian Saul memberikan Mikhal, anaknya, kepadanya menjadi isterinya.
And after a few days, David, rising up, went with the men who were under him, and he struck down two hundred men of the Philistines. And he brought their foreskins, and he counted them out for the king, so that he might be his son-in-law. And so, Saul gave to him his daughter Michal as wife.
28 Lalu mengertilah Saul dan tahulah ia, bahwa TUHAN menyertai Daud, dan bahwa seluruh orang Israel mengasihi Daud.
And Saul saw and understood that the Lord was with David. And Michal, the daughter of Saul, loved him.
29 Maka makin takutlah Saul kepada Daud. Saul tetap menjadi musuh Daud seumur hidupnya.
And Saul began to fear David all the more. And Saul became the enemy of David, every day.
30 Apabila raja-raja orang Filistin maju berperang, setiap kali mereka maju berperang, maka Daud lebih berhasil dari semua pegawai Saul, sehingga namanya sangat masyhur.
And the leaders of the Philistines departed. And from the beginning of their departure, David conducted himself more prudently than all the servants of Saul, and his name became exceedingly celebrated.
