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 came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as 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 let him return to his father’s house.
3 Yonatan mengikat perjanjian dengan Daud, karena ia mengasihi dia seperti dirinya sendiri.
And David and Jonathan made a covenant, for be loved him as his own soul.
4 Yonatan menanggalkan jubah yang dipakainya, dan memberikannya kepada Daud, juga baju perangnya, sampai pedangnya, panahnya dan ikat pinggangnya.
And Jonathan stripped himself of the coat with which he was clothed, and gave it to David, and the rest of his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
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.
And David went out to whatsoever business Saul sent him, and he behaved himself prudently: and Saul set him over the soldiers, and he was acceptable in the eyes of all the people, and especially in the eyes of Saul’s servants.
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 be slew the Philistine, the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with timbrels of joy, and cornets.
7 dan perempuan yang menari-nari itu menyanyi berbalas-balasan, katanya: "Saul mengalahkan beribu-ribu musuh, tetapi Daud berlaksa-laksa."
And the women sung as they played, and they said: I Saul slew his thousands, and David his ten thousands.
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."
And Saul was exceeding angry, and this word was displeasing in his eyes, and he said: They have given David ten thousands, and to me they have given but a thousand; what can he have more but the kingdom?
9 Sejak hari itu maka Saul selalu mendengki Daud.
And Saul did not look on David with a good eye from that day and forward.
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.
And the day after the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of his house. And David played with his hand as at other times. And Saul held a spear in his hand,
11 Saul melemparkan tombak itu, karena pikirnya: "Baiklah aku menancapkan Daud ke dinding." Tetapi Daud mengelakkannya sampai dua kali.
And threw it, thinking to nail David to the wall: and David stept aside out of his presence twice.
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, and was departed from himself.
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 removed him from him, and made him a captain over a thousand men, and he went out and came in before the people.
14 Daud berhasil di segala perjalanannya, sebab TUHAN menyertai dia.
And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.
15 Ketika dilihat Saul, bahwa Daud sangat berhasil, makin takutlah ia kepadanya;
And Saul saw that he was exceeding prudent, and began to beware of him.
16 tetapi seluruh orang Israel dan orang Yehuda mengasihi Daud, karena ia memimpin segala gerakan mereka.
But all Israel and Juda loved David, for he came in and went out 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 Merob, her will I give thee to wife: only be a valiant man, and fight the battles of the Lord. Now Saul said within himself: 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?"
And David said to Saul: Who am I, or what is my life, or my father’s family in Israel, that I should be 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.
And it came to pass at the time when Merob the daughter of Saul should have been given to David, that she was given to Hadriel the Molathite to wife.
20 Tetapi Mikhal, anak perempuan Saul, jatuh cinta kepada Daud; ketika hal itu diberitahukan kepada Saul, maka iapun menyetujuinya;
But Michol the other daughter of Saul loved David. And it was told 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, that she may be a stumblingblock to him, and that the band of the Philistines may be upon him. And Saul said to David: In two things thou shalt be my son in law this day.
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 thou pleasest the king, and all his servants love thee. Now therefore be the king’s son in law.
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 in the ears of David. And David said: Doth it seem to you a small matter to be the king’s son in law? But I am a poor man, and of small ability.
24 Para pegawai Saul memberitahukan kepada raja, katanya: "Demikianlah jawab yang diberi Daud."
And the servants of Saul told him, saying: Such words as these hath David spoken.
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.
And Saul said: Speak thus to David: The king desireth not any dowry, but only a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to be avenged of the king’s enemies. Now Saul thought 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 told David the words that Saul had said, the word was pleasing in the eyes of David to be the king’s son in law.
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 rose up, and went with the men that were under him, and he slew of the Philistines two hundred men, and brought their foreskins and numbered them out to the king, that he might be his son in law. Saul therefore gave him Michol his daughter to 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 Michol 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 more: and Saul became David’s enemy continually.
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 princes of the Philistines went forth: and from the beginning of their going forth, David behaved himself more wisely than all the servants of Saul, and his name became very famous.
