1 Kings 1
1 Now King David was old and advanced in years; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm.
Raja Daud telah tua dan lanjut umurnya, dan biarpun ia diselimuti, badannya tetap dingin.
2 Therefore his servants said to him, “Let a young virgin be sought for my lord the king. Let her stand before the king, and cherish him; and let her lie in your bosom, that my lord the king may keep warm.”
Lalu para pegawainya berkata kepadanya: "Hendaklah dicari bagi tuanku raja seorang perawan yang muda, untuk melayani dan merawat raja; biarlah ia berbaring di pangkuanmu, sehingga badan tuanku raja menjadi panas."
3 So they sought for a beautiful young lady throughout all the borders of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.
Maka di seluruh daerah Israel dicarilah seorang gadis yang cantik, dan didapatlah Abisag, gadis Sunem, lalu dibawa kepada raja.
4 The young lady was very beautiful; and she cherished the king, and served him; but the king did not know her intimately.
Gadis itu amat cantik, dan ia menjadi perawat raja dan melayani dia, tetapi raja tidak bersetubuh dengan dia.
5 Then Adonijah the son of Haggith exalted himself, saying, “I will be king.” Then he prepared him chariots and horsemen, and fifty men to run before him.
Lalu Adonia, anak Hagit, meninggikan diri dengan berkata: "Aku ini mau menjadi raja." Ia melengkapi dirinya dengan kereta-kereta dan orang-orang berkuda serta lima puluh orang yang berlari di depannya.
6 His father had not displeased him at any time in saying, “Why have you done so?” and he was also a very handsome man; and he was born after Absalom.
Selama hidup Adonia ayahnya belum pernah menegor dia dengan ucapan: "Mengapa engkau berbuat begitu?" Iapun sangat elok perawakannya dan dia adalah anak pertama sesudah Absalom.
7 He conferred with Joab the son of Zeruiah and with Abiathar the priest; and they followed Adonijah and helped him.
Maka berundinglah ia dengan Yoab, anak Zeruya dan dengan imam Abyatar dan mereka menjadi pengikut dan pembantu Adonia.
8 But Zadok the priest, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, Nathan the prophet, Shimei, Rei, and the mighty men who belonged to David, were not with Adonijah.
Tetapi imam Zadok dan Benaya bin Yoyada dan nabi Natan dan Simei dan Rei dan para pahlawan Daud tidak memihak kepada Adonia.
9 Adonijah killed sheep, cattle, and fatlings by the stone of Zoheleth, which is beside En Rogel; and he called all his brothers, the king’s sons, and all the men of Judah, the king’s servants;
Sesudah itu Adonia mempersembahkan domba, lembu dan ternak gemukan sebagai korban dekat batu Zohelet yang ada di samping En-Rogel, lalu mengundang semua saudaranya, anak-anak raja, dan semua orang Yehuda, pegawai-pegawai raja;
10 but he did not call Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah, and the mighty men, and Solomon his brother.
tetapi nabi Natan dan Benaya dan para pahlawan dan Salomo, adiknya, tidak diundangnya.
11 Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, “Have not you heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith reigns, and David our lord does not know it?
Lalu berkatalah Natan kepada Batsyeba, ibu Salomo: "Tidakkah engkau mendengar, bahwa Adonia anak Hagit, telah menjadi raja, sedang tuan kita Daud tidak mengetahuinya?
12 Now therefore come, please let me give you counsel, that you may save your own life and your son Solomon’s life.
Karena itu, baiklah kuberi nasihat kepadamu, supaya engkau dapat menyelamatkan yawamu dan nyawa anakmu Salomo.
13 Go in to King David, and tell him, ‘Did not you, my lord the king, swear to your servant, saying, “Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne”? Why then does Adonijah reign?’
Pergilah masuk menghadap raja Daud dan katakan kepadanya: Bukankah tuanku sendiri, ya rajaku, telah bersumpah kepada hambamu ini: Anakmu Salomo, akan menjadi raja sesudah aku dan dialah yang akan duduk di atas takhtaku? Mengapakah sekarang Adonia menjadi raja?
14 Behold, while you are still talking there with the king, I will also come in after you and confirm your words.”
Dan selagi engkau berbicara di sana dengan raja, akupun akan masuk pula dan menyokong perkataanmu itu."
15 Bathsheba went in to the king in his room. The king was very old; and Abishag the Shunammite was serving the king.
Jadi masuklah Batsyeba menghadap raja ke dalam kamarnya. Waktu itu raja sudah sangat tua dan Abisag, gadis Sunem itu, melayani raja.
16 Bathsheba bowed and showed respect to the king. The king said, “What would you like?”
Lalu Batsyeba berlutut dan sujud menyembah kepada raja. Raja bertanya: "Ada yang kauingini?"
17 She said to him, “My lord, you swore by the LORD your God to your servant, ‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne.’
Lalu perempuan itu berkata kepadanya: "Tuanku sendiri telah bersumpah demi TUHAN, Allahmu, kepada hambamu ini: Anakmu Salomo akan menjadi raja sesudah aku, dan ia akan duduk di atas takhtaku.
18 Now, behold, Adonijah reigns; and you, my lord the king, do not know it.
Tetapi sekarang, lihatlah, Adonia telah menjadi raja, sedang tuanku raja sendiri tidak mengetahuinya.
19 He has slain cattle and fatlings and sheep in abundance, and has called all the sons of the king, Abiathar the priest, and Joab the captain of the army; but he has not called Solomon your servant.
Ia telah menyembelih banyak lembu, ternak gemukan dan domba, dan telah mengundang semua anak raja dan imam Abyatar dan Yoab, panglima itu, tetapi hambamu Salomo tidak diundangnya.
20 You, my lord the king, the eyes of all Israel are on you, that you should tell them who will sit on the throne of my lord the king after him.
Dan kepadamulah, ya tuanku raja, tertuju mata seluruh orang Israel, supaya engkau memberitahukan kepada mereka siapa yang akan duduk di atas takhta tuanku raja sesudah tuanku.
21 Otherwise it will happen, when my lord the king sleeps with his fathers, that I and my son Solomon will be considered criminals.”
Nanti aku ini dan anakku Salomo dituduh bersalah segera sesudah tuanku raja mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya."
22 Behold, while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet came in.
Selagi Batsyeba berbicara dengan raja, datanglah nabi Natan.
23 They told the king, saying, “Behold, Nathan the prophet!” When he had come in before the king, he bowed himself before the king with his face to the ground.
Diberitahukan kepada raja: "Itu ada nabi Natan." Masuklah ia menghadap raja, lalu sujud menyembah kepada raja dengan mukanya sampai ke tanah.
24 Nathan said, “My lord, King, have you said, ‘Adonijah shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne’?
Natan berkata: "Ya tuanku raja, tuanku sendirilah rupa-rupanya yang telah berkata: Adonia akan menjadi raja sesudah aku dan ia akan duduk di atas takhtaku!
25 For he has gone down today, and has slain cattle, fatlings, and sheep in abundance, and has called all the king’s sons, the captains of the army, and Abiathar the priest. Behold, they are eating and drinking before him, and saying, ‘Long live King Adonijah!’
Sebab pada hari ini ia telah menyembelih banyak lembu, ternak gemukan dan domba; ia mengundang semua anak raja, para panglima dan imam Abyatar, dan sesungguhnya mereka sedang makan minum di depannya sambil berseru: Hidup raja Adonia!
26 But he has not called me, even me your servant, Zadok the priest, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and your servant Solomon.
Tetapi hambamu ini, dan imam Zadok dan Benaya bin Yoyada dan hambamu Salomo tidak diundangnya.
27 Was this thing done by my lord the king, and you have not shown to your servants who should sit on the throne of my lord the king after him?”
Jika hal ini terjadi dari pihak tuanku raja, maka engkau tidak memberitahu hamba-hambamu ini, siapa yang akan duduk di atas takhta tuanku raja sesudah tuanku."
28 Then King David answered, “Call Bathsheba in to me.” She came into the king’s presence and stood before the king.
Lalu raja Daud menjawab, katanya: "Panggillah Batsyeba." Perempuan itu masuk menghadap raja dan berdiri di depannya.
29 The king vowed and said, “As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity,
Lalu raja bersumpah dan berkata: "Demi TUHAN yang hidup, yang telah membebaskan nyawaku dari segala kesesakan,
30 most certainly as I swore to you by the LORD, the God of Israel, saying, ‘Assuredly Solomon your son shall reign after me, and he shall sit on my throne in my place;’ I will most certainly do this today.”
pada hari ini aku akan melaksanakan apa yang kujanjikan kepadamu demi TUHAN, Allah Israel, dengan sumpah ini: Anakmu Salomo akan menjadi raja sesudah aku, dan dialah yang akan duduk di atas takhtaku menggantikan aku."
31 Then Bathsheba bowed with her face to the earth and showed respect to the king, and said, “Let my lord King David live forever!”
Lalu Batsyeba berlutut dengan mukanya sampai ke tanah; ia sujud menyembah kepada raja dan berkata: "Hidup tuanku raja Daud untuk selama-lamanya!"
32 King David said, “Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada.” They came before the king.
Lagi kata raja Daud: "Panggillah imam Zadok, nabi Natan dan Benaya bin Yoyada." Mereka masuk menghadap raja,
33 The king said to them, “Take with you the servants of your lord, and cause Solomon my son to ride on my own mule, and bring him down to Gihon.
dan raja berkata kepada mereka: "Bawalah para pegawai tuanmu ini, naikkan anakku Salomo ke atas bagal betina kendaraanku sendiri, dan bawa dia ke Gihon.
34 Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet anoint him there king over Israel. Blow the trumpet, and say, ‘Long live King Solomon!’
Imam Zadok dan nabi Natan harus mengurapi dia di sana menjadi raja atas Israel; kemudian kamu meniup sangkakala dan berseru: Hidup raja Salomo!
35 Then come up after him, and he shall come and sit on my throne; for he shall be king in my place. I have appointed him to be prince over Israel and over Judah.”
Sesudah itu kamu berjalan pulang dengan mengiring dia; lalu ia akan masuk dan duduk di atas takhtaku, sebab dialah yang harus naik takhta menggantikan aku, dan dialah yang kutunjuk menjadi raja atas Israel dan Yehuda."
36 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king, and said, “Amen. May the LORD, the God of my lord the king, say so.
Lalu Benaya bin Yoyada menjawab raja: "Amin! Demikianlah kiranya firman TUHAN, Allah tuanku raja!
37 As the LORD has been with my lord the king, even so may he be with Solomon, and make his throne greater than the throne of my lord King David.”
Seperti TUHAN menyertai tuanku raja, demikianlah kiranya Ia menyertai Salomo; semoga Ia membuat takhta Salomo lebih agung dari takhta tuanku raja Daud."
38 So Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites went down and had Solomon ride on King David’s mule, and brought him to Gihon.
Lalu pergilah imam Zadok, nabi Natan dan Benaya bin Yoyada, dengan orang Kreti dan orang Pleti, mereka menaikkan Salomo ke atas bagal betina raja Daud dan membawanya ke Gihon.
39 Zadok the priest took the horn of oil from the Tent, and anointed Solomon. They blew the trumpet; and all the people said, “Long live King Solomon!”
Imam Zadok telah membawa tabung tanduk berisi minyak dari dalam kemah, lalu diurapinya Salomo. Kemudian sangkakala ditiup, dan seluruh rakyat berseru: "Hidup raja Salomo!"
40 All the people came up after him, and the people piped with pipes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth shook with their sound.
Sesudah itu seluruh rakyat berjalan di belakangnya sambil membunyikan suling dan sambil bersukaria ramai-ramai, sampai seakan-akan bumi terbelah oleh suara mereka.
41 Adonijah and all the guests who were with him heard it as they had finished eating. When Joab heard the sound of the trumpet, he said, “Why is this noise of the city being in an uproar?”
Hal itu kedengaran kepada Adonia dan kepada semua undangan yang bersama-sama dengan dia, ketika mereka baru habis makan. Ketika Yoab mendengar bunyi sangkakala itu, ia berkata: "Apakah sebabnya kota begitu ribut?"
42 While he yet spoke, behold, Jonathan the son of Abiathar the priest came; and Adonijah said, “Come in; for you are a worthy man, and bring good news.”
Selagi ia berbicara, datanglah Yonatan anak imam Abyatar. Lalu Adonia berkata: "Masuklah, sebab engkau seorang kesatria dan tentulah engkau membawa kabar baik."
43 Jonathan answered Adonijah, “Most certainly our lord King David has made Solomon king.
Tetapi Yonatan menjawab Adonia: "Tidak! Tuan kita raja Daud telah mengangkat Salomo menjadi raja.
44 The king has sent with him Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and they have caused him to ride on the king’s mule.
Raja telah menyuruh supaya imam Zadok, dan nabi Natan dan Benaya bin Yoyada, dengan orang Kreti dan orang Pleti, menyertai Salomo dan mereka menaikkan dia ke atas bagal betina raja.
45 Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet have anointed him king in Gihon. They have come up from there rejoicing, so that the city rang again. This is the noise that you have heard.
Imam Zadok, dan nabi Natan mengurapi dia di Gihon menjadi raja, dan dari sana mereka sudah pulang dengan bersukaria, sehingga kota menjadi ribut, itulah bunyi yang kamu dengar tadi.
46 Also, Solomon sits on the throne of the kingdom.
Salomo sekarang duduk di atas takhta kerajaan;
47 Moreover the king’s servants came to bless our lord King David, saying, ‘May your God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and make his throne greater than your throne;’ and the king bowed himself on the bed.
juga pegawai-pegawai raja telah datang mengucap selamat kepada tuan kita raja Daud, dengan berkata: Kiranya Allahmu membuat nama Salomo lebih masyhur dari pada namamu dan takhtanya lebih agung dari pada takhtamu. Dan rajapun telah sujud menyembah di atas tempat tidurnya,
48 Also thus said the king, ‘Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who has given one to sit on my throne today, my eyes even seeing it.’”
dan beginilah katanya: Terpujilah TUHAN, Allah Israel, yang pada hari ini telah memberi seorang duduk di atas takhtaku yang aku sendiri masih boleh saksikan."
49 All the guests of Adonijah were afraid, and rose up, and each man went his way.
Maka semua undangan Adonia itu terkejut, lalu bangkit dan masing-masing pergi menurut jalannya.
50 Adonijah was afraid because of Solomon; and he arose, and went, and hung onto the horns of the altar.
Takutlah Adonia kepada Salomo, sebab itu ia segera pergi memegang tanduk-tanduk mezbah.
51 Solomon was told, “Behold, Adonijah fears King Solomon; for, behold, he is hanging onto the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon swear to me first that he will not kill his servant with the sword.’”
Lalu diberitahukanlah kepada Salomo: "Ternyata Adonia takut kepada raja Salomo, dan ia telah memegang tanduk-tanduk mezbah, serta berkata: Biarlah raja Salomo lebih dahulu bersumpah mengenai aku, bahwa ia takkan membunuh hambanya ini dengan pedang."
52 Solomon said, “If he shows himself a worthy man, not a hair of his shall fall to the earth; but if wickedness is found in him, he shall die.”
Lalu kata Salomo: "Jika ia berlaku sebagai kesatria, maka sehelai rambutpun dari kepalanya tidak akan jatuh ke bumi, tetapi jika ternyata ia bermaksud jahat, haruslah ia dibunuh."
53 So King Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. He came and bowed down to King Solomon; and Solomon said to him, “Go to your house.”
Dan raja Salomo menyuruh orang menjemput dia dari mezbah itu. Ketika ia masuk, sujudlah ia menyembah kepada raja Salomo, lalu Salomo berkata kepadanya: "Pergilah ke rumahmu."
