2 Raja-raja 13
1 Dalam tahun kedua puluh tiga zaman Yoas bin Ahazia, raja Yehuda, Yoahas, anak Yehu, menjadi raja atas Israel di Samaria; ia memerintah tujuh belas tahun lamanya.
In the twenty-third year of Jehoash, the son of Ahaziah, the king of Judah, Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for seventeen years.
2 Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN, dan ia hidup menuruti dosa Yerobeam bin Nebat, yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula. Ia tidak menjauhinya.
And he did evil before the Lord. And he followed the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin. And he did not turn aside from these.
3 Sebab itu bangkitlah murka TUHAN terhadap Israel, lalu diserahkan-Nyalah mereka ke dalam tangan Hazael, raja Aram, dan ke dalam tangan Benhadad, anak Hazael, selama zaman itu.
And the fury of the Lord was enraged against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael, the king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad, the son of Hazael, during all the days.
4 Tetapi kemudian Yoahas memohon belas kasihan TUHAN, dan TUHAN mendengarkan dia, sebab Ia telah melihat, bagaimana beratnya orang Israel ditindas oleh raja Aram.
But Jehoahaz petitioned the face of the Lord, and the Lord heeded him. For he saw the anguish of Israel, because the king of Syria had oppressed them.
5 --TUHAN memberikan kepada orang Israel seorang penolong, sehingga mereka lepas dari tangan Aram dan dapat duduk di kemah-kemah mereka seperti yang sudah-sudah.
And the Lord gave a savior to Israel. And they were freed from the hand of the king of Syria. And the sons of Israel lived in their tabernacles, just as yesterday and the day before.
6 Hanya mereka tidak menjauh dari dosa-dosa keluarga Yerobeam, yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula, melainkan mereka terus hidup dalam dosa itu. Juga patung Asyera masih berdiri di Samaria. --
Yet truly, they did not withdraw from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who had caused Israel to sin. Instead, they walked by them. And there was even a sacred grove still remaining in Samaria.
7 Sebab tidak ada laskar ditinggalkan pada Yoahas, selain dari lima puluh orang berkuda dan sepuluh kereta dan sepuluh ribu orang berjalan kaki, sebab raja Aram telah membinasakan mereka dan meniupkan mereka seperti abu pengirikan.
And there was left to Jehoahaz from the people nothing but fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand foot soldiers. For the king of Syria had killed them, and he had reduced them to become like dust on a threshing floor.
8 Selebihnya dari riwayat Yoahas dan segala yang dilakukannya dan kepahlawanannya, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Israel?
But the rest of the words of Jehoahaz, and all that he did, and his strength, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
9 Kemudian Yoahas mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, dan ia dikuburkan di Samaria. Maka Yoas, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
And Jehoahaz slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Joash, his son, reigned in his place.
10 Dalam tahun ketiga puluh tujuh zaman Yoas, raja Yehuda, Yoas anak Yoahas, menjadi raja atas Israel di Samaria. Ia memerintah enam belas tahun lamanya.
In the thirty-seventh year of Jehoash, the king of Judah, Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, reigned over Israel, in Samaria, for sixteen years.
11 Ia melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN. Ia tidak menjauh dari segala dosa yang disuruh Yerobeam bin Nebat dilakukan orang Israel, tetapi terus hidup dalam dosa itu.
And he did what is evil in the sight of the Lord. He did not turn aside from all the sins of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, who caused Israel to sin. Instead, he walked by them.
12 Selebihnya dari riwayat Yoas dan segala yang dilakukannya dan kepahlawanannya, bagaimana ia berperang melawan Amazia, raja Yehuda, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Israel?
But the rest of the words of Joash, and all that he did, and his strength, the manner in which he fought against Amaziah, the king of Judah, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
13 Setelah Yoas mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, maka duduklah Yerobeam di atas takhta ayahnya. Dan Yoas dikuburkan di Samaria di samping raja Israel.
And Joash slept with his fathers. Then Jeroboam sat upon his throne. And Joash was buried in Samaria, with the kings of Israel.
14 Ketika Elisa menderita sakit yang menyebabkan kematiannya, datanglah Yoas, raja Israel, kepadanya dan menangis oleh karena dia, katanya: "Bapaku, bapaku! Kereta Israel dan orang-orangnya yang berkuda!"
Now Elisha was sick of the infirmity from which he also died. And Joash, the king of Israel, descended to him. And he was weeping before him, and saying: “My father, my father! The chariot of Israel and its driver!”
15 Berkatalah Elisa kepadanya: "Ambillah busur dan anak-anak panah!" Lalu diambillah busur dan anak-anak panah.
And Elisha said to him, “Bring a bow and arrows.” And when he had brought a bow and arrows to him,
16 Berkatalah ia kepada raja Israel: "Tariklah busurmu!" Lalu ia menarik busurnya, tetapi Elisa menaruh tangannya di atas tangan raja,
he said to the king of Israel, “Place your hand upon the bow.” And when he had placed his hand, Elisha placed his own hands over the hands of the king.
17 serta berkata: "Bukalah jendela yang di sebelah timur!" Dan ketika dibukanya, berkatalah Elisa: "Panahlah!" Lalu dipanahnya. Kemudian berkatalah Elisa: "Itulah anak panah kemenangan dari pada TUHAN, anak panah kemenangan terhadap Aram. Engkau akan mengalahkan Aram di Afek sampai habis lenyap."
And he said, “Open the window toward the east.” And when he had opened it, Elisha said, “Shoot an arrow.” And he shot it. And Elisha said: “It is the arrow of the salvation of the Lord, and the arrow of salvation against Syria. And you shall strike the Syrians at Aphek, until you consume them.”
18 Sesudah itu berkatalah ia: "Ambillah anak-anak panah itu!" Lalu diambilnya. Setelah diambilnya, berkatalah Elisa kepada raja Israel: "Pukulkanlah itu ke tanah!" Lalu dipukulkannya tiga kali, kemudian ia berhenti.
And he said, “Take the arrows.” And when he had taken them, he then said to him, “Strike an arrow against the ground.” And when he had struck three times, and he had stood still,
19 Tetapi gusarlah abdi Allah itu kepadanya serta berkata: "Seharusnya engkau memukul lima atau enam kali! Dengan berbuat demikian engkau akan memukul Aram sampai habis lenyap. Tetapi sekarang, hanya tiga kali saja engkau akan memukul Aram."
the man of God became angry against him. And he said: “If you had struck five or six or seven times, you would have struck down Syria, even until it was consumed. But now you will strike it three times.”
20 Sesudah itu matilah Elisa, lalu ia dikuburkan. Adapun gerombolan Moab sering memasuki negeri itu pada pergantian tahun.
Then Elisha died, and they buried him. And the robbers from Moab came into the land in the same year.
21 Pada suatu kali orang sedang menguburkan mayat. Ketika mereka melihat gerombolan datang, dicampakkan merekalah mayat itu ke dalam kubur Elisa, lalu pergi. Dan demi mayat itu kena kepada tulang-tulang Elisa, maka hiduplah ia kembali dan bangun berdiri.
But certain ones who were burying a man saw the robbers, and they cast the dead body into the sepulcher of Elisha. But when it had touched the bones of Elisha, the man revived, and he stood upon his feet.
22 Hazael, raja Aram, menindas orang Israel sepanjang umur Yoahas.
Now Hazael, the king of Syria, afflicted Israel during all the days of Jehoahaz.
23 Tetapi TUHAN mengasihani serta menyayangi mereka, dan Ia berpaling kepada mereka oleh karena perjanjian-Nya dengan Abraham, Ishak dan Yakub, jadi Ia tidak mau memusnahkan mereka dan belum membuang mereka pada waktu itu dari hadapan-Nya.
But the Lord took pity on them, and he returned to them, because of his covenant, which he had made with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob. And he was not willing to destroy them, nor to cast them out completely, even to the present time.
24 Kemudian matilah Hazael, raja Aram, maka Benhadad, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
Then Hazael, the king of Syria, died. And Benhadad, his son, reigned in his place.
25 Yoas bin Yoahas merebut kembali dari tangan Benhadad bin Hazael kota-kota yang dalam peperangan direbut Benhadad dari tangan Yoahas, ayah Yoas. Tiga kali Yoas mengalahkan dia dan mendapat kembali kota-kota Israel.
Now Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, by a just war, took the cities from the hand of Benhadad, the son of Hazael, which he had taken from the hand of Jehoahaz, his father. Joash struck him three times, and he restored the cities to Israel.
