1 Samuel 30
1 Ketika Daud serta orang-orangnya sampai ke Ziklag pada hari yang ketiga, orang Amalek telah menyerbu Tanah Negeb dan Ziklag; Ziklag telah dikalahkan oleh mereka dan dibakar habis.
Now when David and his men were come to Siceleg on the third day, the Amalecites had made an invasion on the south side upon Siceleg, and had smitten Siceleg, and burnt it with fire.
2 Perempuan-perempuan dan semua orang yang ada di sana, tua dan muda, telah ditawan mereka, dengan tidak membunuh seorangpun; mereka menggiring sekaliannya, kemudian meneruskan perjalanannya.
And had taken the women captives that were in it, both little and great: and they had not killed any person, but had carried them with them, and went on their way.
3 Ketika Daud dan orang-orangnya sampai ke kota itu, tampaklah kota itu terbakar habis, dan isteri mereka serta anak mereka yang laki-laki dan perempuan telah ditawan.
So when David and his men came to the city, and found it burnt with fire, and that their wives and their sons, and their daughters were taken captives,
4 Lalu menangislah Daud dan rakyat yang bersama-sama dengan dia itu dengan nyaring, sampai mereka tidak kuat lagi menangis.
David and the people that were with him, lifted up their voices, and wept till they had no more tears.
5 Juga kedua isteri Daud ditawan, yakni Ahinoam, perempuan Yizreel, dan Abigail, bekas isteri Nabal, orang Karmel itu.
For the two wives also of David were taken captives, Achinoam the Jezrahelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal of Carmel.
6 Dan Daud sangat terjepit, karena rakyat mengatakan hendak melempari dia dengan batu. Seluruh rakyat itu telah pedih hati, masing-masing karena anaknya laki-laki dan perempuan. Tetapi Daud menguatkan kepercayaannya kepada TUHAN, Allahnya.
And David was greatly afflicted: for the people had a mind to stone him, for the soul of every man was bitterly grieved for his sons, and daughters: but David took courage in the Lord his God.
7 Lalu Daud memberi perintah kepada imam Abyatar bin Ahimelekh: "Bawalah efod itu kepadaku." Maka Abyatar membawa efod itu kepada Daud.
And he said to Abiathar the priest the son of Achimelech: Bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.
8 Kemudian bertanyalah Daud kepada TUHAN, katanya: "Haruskah aku mengejar gerombolan itu? Akan dapatkah mereka kususul?" Dan Ia berfirman kepadanya: "Kejarlah, sebab sesungguhnya, engkau akan dapat menyusul mereka dan melepaskan para tawanan."
And David consulted the Lord, saying: Shall I pursue after these robbers, and shall I overtake them, or not? And the Lord said to him: Pursue after them: for thou shalt surely overtake them and recover the prey.
9 Lalu pergilah Daud beserta keenam ratus orang yang bersama-sama dengan dia, dan sampailah mereka ke sungai Besor. Sementara orang-orang yang mau tinggal di belakang berhenti di sana,
So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor: and some being weary stayed there.
10 maka Daud melanjutkan pengejaran itu beserta empat ratus orang. Dua ratus orang yang terlalu lelah untuk menyeberangi sungai Besor itu, berhenti di sana.
But David pursued, he and four hundred men: for two hundred stayed, who being weary could not go over the torrent Besor.
11 Kemudian mereka menemui seorang Mesir di padang lalu membawanya kepada Daud. Mereka memberi dia roti, lalu makanlah ia, kemudian mereka memberi dia minum air,
And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David: and they gave him bread to eat, and water to drink,
12 dan memberikan kepadanya sepotong kue ara dan dua buah kue kismis, dan setelah dimakannya, ia segar kembali, sebab ia tidak makan dan minum selama tiga hari tiga malam.
As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.
13 Kemudian bertanyalah Daud kepadanya: "Budak siapakah engkau dan dari manakah engkau?" Jawabnya: "Aku ini seorang pemuda Mesir, budak kepunyaan seorang Amalek. Tuanku meninggalkan aku, karena tiga hari yang lalu aku jatuh sakit.
And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong? or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite, and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago.
14 Kami telah menyerbu Tanah Negeb orang Kreti dan daerah Yehuda dan Tanah Negeb Kaleb, dan Ziklag telah kami bakar habis."
For we made an invasion on the south side of Cerethi, and upon Juda, and upon the south of Caleb, and we burnt Siceleg with fire.
15 Daud bertanya kepadanya: "Dapatkah engkau menunjuk jalan kepadaku ke gerombolan itu?" Katanya: "Bersumpahlah kepadaku demi Allah, bahwa engkau tidak akan membunuh aku, dan tidak akan menyerahkan aku ke dalam tangan tuanku itu, maka aku akan menunjuk jalan kepadamu ke gerombolan itu."
And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? And he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him.
16 Ia menunjuk jalan kepada Daud ke sana, dan tampaklah orang-orang itu berpencar-pencar di atas seluruh daerah itu, sambil makan, minum dan mengadakan perayaan karena jarahan yang besar, yang telah dirampas mereka dari tanah orang Filistin dan dari tanah Yehuda.
And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey, and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.
17 Dan pada keesokan harinya Daud menghancurkan mereka dari pagi-pagi buta sampai matahari terbenam; tidak ada seorangpun dari mereka yang lolos, kecuali empat ratus orang muda yang melarikan diri dengan menunggang unta.
And David slew them from the evening unto the evening of the next day, and there escaped not a man of them, but four hundred young men, who had gotten upon camels, and fled.
18 Daud melepaskan semua apa yang dirampas oleh orang Amalek itu; juga kedua isterinya dapat dilepaskan Daud.
So David recovered all that the Amalecites had taken, and he rescued his two wives.
19 Tidak ada yang hilang pada mereka, dari hal yang kecil sampai hal yang besar, sampai anak laki-laki dan anak perempuan, dan dari jarahan sampai segala sesuatu yang telah dirampas mereka; semuanya itu dibawa Daud kembali.
And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken: David recovered all.
20 Daud mengambil segala kambing domba dan lembu; semuanya itu digiring mereka di hadapannya, serta berkata: "Inilah jarahan Daud."
And he took all the flocks and the herds, and made them go before him: and they said: This is the prey of David.
21 Ketika Daud sampai kepada kedua ratus orang yang telah terlalu lelah untuk mengikuti Daud, yang telah dibiarkannya tinggal di dekat sungai Besor, maka keluarlah orang-orang ini menyongsong Daud dan menyongsong rakyat yang bersama-sama dengan dia. Daud mendekati orang-orang itu dan memberi salam kepada mereka.
And David came to the two hundred men, who being weary had stayed, and were not able to follow David, and he had ordered them to abide at the torrent Besor: and they came out to meet David, and the people that were with him. And David coming to the people saluted them peaceably.
22 Kemudian mulailah berbicara semua orang jahat dan orang dursila di antara orang-orang, yang ikut pergi bersama-sama dengan Daud itu, katanya: "Karena mereka tidak ikut pergi bersama-sama dengan kita, janganlah kita berikan kepada mereka apa-apa dari jarahan yang kita selamatkan itu, kecuali kepada masing-masing mereka isterinya dan anak-anaknya. Itu boleh mereka bawa, dan biarlah mereka pergi!"
Then all the wicked and unjust men that had gone with David answering, said: Because they came not with us, we will not give them any thing of the prey which we have recovered: but let every man take his wife and his children, and be contented with them, and go his way.
23 Tetapi Daud berkata: "Janganlah kamu, saudara-saudaraku, berbuat demikian, dengan apa yang diberikan TUHAN kepada kita; sebab Ia telah melindungi kita, dan menyerahkan ke dalam tangan kita gerombolan yang menyerang kita.
But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands.
24 Siapa yang mau mendengarkan kamu dalam perkara ini? Sebab, bagian orang yang tinggal di dekat barang-barang adalah sama seperti bagian orang yang pergi berperang; itu akan dibagi sama-sama."
And no man shall hearken to you in this matter. But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.
25 Dan demikianlah halnya sejak hari itu dan seterusnya; hal itu ditentukannya menjadi ketetapan dan peraturan bagi orang Israel sampai sekarang.
And this hath been done from that day forward, and since was made a statute, and an ordinance, and as a law in Israel.
26 Ketika Daud sampai ke Ziklag, dikirimnyalah sebagian dari jarahan itu kepada para tua-tua di Yehuda, kepada teman-temannya, dengan pesan: "Inilah pemberian kepadamu dari jarahan yang dirampas dari musuh TUHAN,"
Then David came to Siceleg, and sent presents of the prey to the ancients of Juda his neighbours, saying: Receive a blessing of the prey of the enemies of the Lord.
27 yakni kepada yang di Betel, kepada yang di Ramot di Tanah Selatan, kepada yang di Yatir,
To them that were in Bethel, and that were in Ramoth to the south, and to them that were in Jether,
28 kepada yang di Aroer, kepada yang di Sifmot, kepada yang di Estemoa,
And to them that were in Aroer and that were in Sephamoth, and that were in Esthamo,
29 kepada yang di Rakhal, kepada yang di kota-kota orang Yerahmeel, kepada yang di kota-kota orang Keni,
And that were in Rachal, and that were in the cities of Jerameel, and that were in the cities of Ceni,
30 kepada yang di Horma, kepada yang di Bor-Asan, kepada yang di Atakh,
And that were in Arama, and that were in the lake Asan, and that were in Athach,
31 kepada yang di Hebron dan kepada segala tempat di mana Daud dengan orang-orangnya mengembara.
And that were in Hebron, and to the rest that were in those places, in which David had abode with his men.
