1 Samuel 17
1 Pada suatu ketika orang Filistin mengerahkan tentaranya untuk maju berperang. Mereka mengatur barisannya di kota Sokho, dalam wilayah Yehuda dan memasang perkemahannya di antara Sokho dan Azeka, dekat Efes-Damim.
Now the Philistines gathering together their troops to battle, assembled at Socho of Juda, and camped between Socho and Azeca in the borders of Dommim.
2 Saul dan orang-orang Israel berkumpul juga dan berkemah di Lembah Ela; mereka bersiap-siap untuk menghadapi serangan orang Filistin.
And Saul and the children of Israel being gathered together came to the valley of Terebinth, and they set the army in array to fight against the Philistines.
3 Demikianlah barisan orang Filistin berdiri di sebuah bukit dan barisan orang Israel di bukit yang lain, dan di antaranya ada sebuah lembah.
And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
4 Maka seorang jago berkelahi yang bernama Goliat, dari kota Gat, keluar dari perkemahan Filistin untuk menantang orang Israel. Tingginya kira-kira tiga meter,
And there went out a man baseborn from the camp of the Philistines named Goliath, of Geth, whose height was six cubits and a span:
5 dan ia memakai topi tembaga dan baju perang tembaga yang beratnya kira-kira lima puluh tujuh kilogram.
And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was clothed with a coat of mail with scales, and the weight of his coat of mail was five thousand sicles of brass:
6 Kakinya dilindungi oleh penutup kaki dari tembaga, dan di bahunya ia memanggul lembing tembaga.
And he had greaves of brass on his legs, and a buckler of brass covered his shoulders.
7 Gagang tombaknya sebesar kayu pada alat tenun, dan mata tombaknya kira-kira tujuh kilogram beratnya. Seorang prajurit berjalan di depannya dengan membawa perisainya.
And the staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam, and the head of his spear weighed six hundred sicles of iron: and his armourbearer went before him.
8 Goliat berhenti lalu berseru kepada tentara Israel, "Apa yang sedang kamu lakukan di situ? Hendak berperangkah kamu? Aku seorang Filistin, hai hamba-hamba Saul! Pilihlah seorang di antara kamu yang berani turun untuk bertempur melawan aku.
And standing he cried out to the bands of Israel, and said to them: Why are you come out prepared to fight? am not I a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose out a man of you, and let him come down and fight hand to hand.
9 Jika dalam perang tanding itu, aku terbunuh, kami rela menjadi hambamu, tetapi jika aku yang menang dan membunuhnya, kamulah yang akan menjadi hamba kami.
If he be able to fight with me, and kill me, we will be servants to you: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, you shall be servants, and shall serve us.
10 Sekarang juga, kutantang tentara Israel; pilihlah seorang untuk bertanding melawan aku!"
And the Philistine said: I have defied the bands of Israel this day: Give me a man, and let him fight with me hand to hand.
11 Ketika Saul dan orang-orangnya mendengar tantangan itu, terkejutlah mereka dan menjadi sangat ketakutan.
And Saul and all the Israelites hearing these words of the Philistine were dismayed, and greatly afraid.
12 Daud adalah anak Isai orang Efrata, dari Betlehem di Yehuda. Isai mempunyai delapan orang anak laki-laki, dan pada zaman pemerintahan Saul, Isai sudah tua sekali.
Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Juda before mentioned, whose name was Isai, who had eight sons, and was an old man in the days of Saul, and of great age among men.
13 Ketiga anak Isai yang tertua telah pergi berperang mengikuti Saul. Yang sulung bernama Eliab, yang kedua Abinadab, dan yang ketiga Syama.
And his three eldest sons followed Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle, were Eliab the firstborn, and the second Abinadab, and the third Samma.
14 Daud anak yang bungsu. Pada waktu ketiga abangnya yang tertua itu sedang berperang mengikuti Saul,
But David was the youngest. So the three eldest having followed Saul,
15 Daud sering meninggalkan Saul dan pulang ke Betlehem untuk menggembalakan domba ayahnya.
David went, and returned from Saul, to feed his father’s flock at Bethlehem.
16 Selama empat puluh hari, setiap pagi dan petang, Goliat mendekati barisan orang Israel dan menantang mereka.
Now the Philistine came out morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
17 Pada suatu hari Isai berkata kepada Daud, "Ambillah sepuluh kilogram gandum panggang dengan sepuluh roti ini, dan bawalah kepada abang-abangmu di perkemahan tentara.
And Isai said to David his son: Take for thy brethren an ephi of frumenty, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to thy brethren.
18 Bawalah juga sepuluh buah keju ini untuk komandan pasukan. Tanyakanlah bagaimana keadaan abang-abangmu, dan bawalah bukti untukku bahwa engkau telah bertemu dengan mereka dan mereka dalam keadaan selamat.
And carry these ten little cheeses to the tribune: and go see thy brethren, if they are well: and learn with whom they are placed.
19 Mereka ada di Lembah Ela bersama Raja Saul, dan semua orang Israel sedang bertempur melawan orang Filistin."
But Saul, and they, and all the children of Israel were in the valley of Terebinth fighting against the Philistines.
20 Keesokan harinya, pagi-pagi, Daud bangun lalu berkemas. Dombanya dititipkannya kepada seorang penjaga, kemudian ia mengambil bawaannya lalu berangkat, sesuai dengan perintah ayahnya. Ia sampai ke perkemahan pada waktu orang Israel berangkat ke medan pertempuran sambil memekikkan sorak perang.
David therefore arose in the morning, and gave the charge of the flock to the keeper: and went away loaded as Isai had commanded him. And he came to the place of Magala, and to the army, which was going out to fight, and shouted for the battle.
21 Tentara Filistin dan tentara Israel saling berhadapan dan bersiap-siap untuk bertempur.
For Israel had put themselves in array, and the Philistines who stood against them were prepared.
22 Lalu Daud menitipkan bawaannya itu kepada penjaga perlengkapan tentara, dan lari ke medan perang untuk menemui abang-abangnya.
And David leaving the vessels which he had brought, under the care of the keeper of the baggage, ran to the place of the battle and asked if all things went well with his brethren.
23 Tetapi ketika ia sedang berbicara dengan mereka, Goliat maju ke depan dan menantang orang Israel, seperti yang biasa dilakukannya. Daud pun mendengar kata-kata tantangannya itu.
And as he talked with them, that baseborn man whose name was Goliath, the Philistine, of Geth, shewed himself coming up from the camp of the Philistines: and he spoke according to the same words, and David heard them.
24 Segera setelah orang Israel melihat Goliat, mereka lari ketakutan.
And all the Israelites when they saw the man, fled from his face, fearing him exceedingly.
25 "Lihatlah dia!" kata mereka sesamanya. "Dengarlah kata-kata tantangannya! Saul raja kita telah berjanji bahwa siapa saja yang membunuh Goliat, akan diberikan hadiah yang besar. Raja juga akan mengawinkan orang itu dengan putrinya. Dan keluarga ayah orang itu akan dibebaskan dari pajak."
And some one of Israel said: Have you seen this man that is come up, for he is come up to defy Israel. And the man that shall slay him, the king will enrich with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house free from tribute in Israel.
26 Lalu Daud berkata, "Berani benar orang Filistin si kafir itu menantang tentara Allah yang hidup!" Kemudian ia bertanya kepada salah seorang prajurit, "Apakah yang akan diberikan kepada orang yang bisa membunuh orang Filistin itu dan menghapus penghinaan dari Israel?"
And David spoke to the men that stood by him, saying: What shall be given to the man that shall kill this Philistine, and shall take away the reproach from Israel? for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?
27 Rakyat memberitahukan kepadanya apa yang telah dijanjikan raja.
And the people answered him the same words saying: These things shall be given to the man that shall slay him.
28 Eliab abang Daud yang sulung mendengar Daud berbicara dengan prajurit-prajurit. Dia menjadi marah kepada Daud dan berkata, "Mengapa kau datang kemari? Siapa telah kau suruh mengurus domba-dombamu yang beberapa ekor itu di padang gurun? Aku tahu, kau berlagak berani; kau datang kemari hanya untuk melihat pertempuran bukan?"
Now when Eliab his eldest brother heard this, when he was speaking with others, he was angry with David, and said: Why earnest thou hither? and why didst thou leave those few sheep in the desert? I know thy pride, and the wickedness of thy heart: that thou art come down to see the battle.
29 Jawab Daud, "Apa salahku? Aku kan hanya bertanya!"
And David said: What have I done? is there not cause to speak?
30 Lalu dia pergi dan menanyakan hal yang sama kepada prajurit-prajurit yang lain; dan ia mendapat jawaban begitu juga.
And he turned a little aside from him to another: and said the same word. And the people answered him as before.
31 Tetapi beberapa orang yang mendengar perkataan Daud, menyampaikannya kepada Saul, jadi Daud dipanggilnya menghadap.
And the words which David spoke were heard, and were rehearsed before Saul.
32 Kata Daud kepada Saul, "Baginda, kita tak perlu takut kepada orang Filistin itu! Hamba bersedia melawan dia."
And when he was brought to him, he said to him: Let not any man’s heart be dismayed in him: I thy servant will go, and will fight against the Philistine.
33 "Jangan," jawab Saul. "Bagaimana mungkin engkau bertanding dengan dia? Engkau masih muda sekali, sedangkan dia sudah biasa berperang sejak masa mudanya."
And Saul said to David: Thou art not able to withstand this Philistine, nor to fight against him: for thou art but a boy, but he is a warrior from his youth.
34 Tetapi Daud berkata, "Baginda, hamba biasa menggembalakan domba ayah hamba. Bilamana ada singa atau beruang datang menerkam domba,
And David said to Saul: Thy servant kept his father’s sheep, and there came a lion, or a bear, and took a ram out of the midst of the flock:
35 binatang buas itu hamba kejar dan hantam, lalu domba itu hamba selamatkan. Dan jika singa atau beruang itu melawan hamba, maka hamba pegang lehernya, lalu hamba pukul sampai mati.
And I pursued after them, and struck them, and delivered it out of their mouth: and they rose up against me, and I caught them by the throat, and I strangled and killed them.
36 Hamba telah membunuh singa maupun beruang, dan orang Filistin si kafir itu juga akan sama seperti binatang-binatang itu, karena ia berani menghina tentara dari Allah yang hidup.
For I thy servant have killed both a lion and a bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be also as one of them. I will go now, and take away the reproach of the people: for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, who hath dared to curse the army of the living God?
37 TUHAN telah menyelamatkan hamba dari singa dan beruang, Dia juga akan menyelamatkan hamba dari orang Filistin itu." Lalu kata Saul kepadanya, "Baiklah, semoga TUHAN menolongmu."
And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.
38 Saul memberikan pakaian perangnya, yaitu sebuah baju besi kepada Daud dan Daud mengenakannya. Lalu Saul memakaikan topi tembaga pada kepala Daud.
And Saul clothed David with his garments, and put a helmet of brass upon his head, and armed him with a coat of mail.
39 Akhirnya Daud mengikatkan pedang Saul pada baju besi itu lalu mencoba berjalan, tetapi tidak bisa, karena Daud tidak biasa memakai pakaian perang. "Hamba tidak bisa berjalan dengan pakaian ini," katanya kepada Saul. "Hamba tidak biasa memakainya." Lalu seluruh pakaian perang itu ditanggalkannya.
And David having girded his sword upon his armour, began to try if he could walk in armour: for he was not accustomed to it. And David said to Saul: I cannot go thus, for I am not used to it. And he laid them off,
40 Kemudian ia mengambil tongkat gembalanya, dan memilih lima buah batu yang bulat dari sungai, lalu dimasukkannya ke dalam kantongnya. Dengan umban siap di tangannya, pergilah ia menemui Goliat.
And he took his staff, which he had always in his hands: and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them into the shepherd’s scrip, which he had with him, and he took a sling in his hand, and went forth against the Philistine.
41 Beberapa saat kemudian Goliat yang didahului oleh pembawa perisainya, mulai berjalan mendekati Daud.
And the Philistine came on, and drew nigh against David, and his armourbearer before him.
42 Tetapi ketika ia melihat Daud dan memperhatikannya, Goliat tertawa mengejek karena Daud masih muda sekali dan tampan.
And when the Philistine looked, and beheld David, he despised him. For he was a young man, ruddy, and of a comely countenance.
43 Kata Goliat kepada Daud, "Untuk apa tongkat itu? Apakah kauanggap aku ini anjing?" Lalu Daud dikutukinya demi para dewanya.
And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
44 Lagipula ia menantang Daud, katanya, "Ayo, maju! akan kuberikan tubuhmu kepada burung dan binatang supaya dimakan."
And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
45 Tetapi Daud menjawab, "Engkau datang melawanku dengan pedang, tombak dan lembing, tetapi aku datang melawanmu dengan nama TUHAN Yang Mahakuasa, Allah tentara Israel yang kauhina itu.
And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.
46 Hari ini juga TUHAN akan menyerahkan engkau kepadaku; engkau akan kukalahkan dan kepalamu akan kupenggal. Tubuhmu dan tubuh prajurit-prajurit Filistin akan kuberikan kepada burung dan binatang supaya dimakan. Maka seluruh dunia akan tahu bahwa kami bangsa Israel mempunyai Allah yang kami sembah,
This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.
47 dan semua orang di sini akan melihat bahwa TUHAN tidak memerlukan pedang atau tombak untuk menyelamatkan umat-Nya. Dialah yang menentukan jalan peperangan ini dan Dia akan menyerahkan kamu ke dalam tangan kami."
And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.
48 Goliat mulai maju mendekati Daud, lalu dengan cepat Daud berlari ke arah barisan orang Filistin untuk menghadapi dia.
And when the Philistine arose and was coming, and drew nigh to meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the Philistine.
49 Daud merogoh kantongnya, mengambil sebuah batu lalu diumbankannya kepada Goliat. Batu itu menghantam dahi Goliat sehingga pecahlah tengkoraknya, dan ia roboh dengan mukanya ke tanah.
And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it with the sling, and fetching it about struck the Philistine in the forehead: and the stone was fixed in his forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.
50 Daud berlari kepada Goliat, lalu berdiri di dekatnya; ia mengambil pedang Goliat dan mencabutnya dari sarungnya, lalu dipenggalnya kepala orang Filistin itu. Demikianlah Daud mengalahkan dan membunuh Goliat, hanya dengan umban dan batu! Ketika orang-orang Filistin melihat bahwa pahlawan mereka sudah mati, larilah mereka.
And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword in his hand,
He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.
52 Orang-orang Israel dan Yehuda bersorak-sorak dan mengejar orang-orang Filistin sampai ke Gat dan pintu gerbang Ekron. Orang-orang Filistin yang terluka bergelimpangan sepanjang jalan ke Saaraim itu.
And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.
53 Setelah itu orang Israel kembali dari mengejar orang Filistin, lalu merampas isi perkemahan mereka.
And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the Philistines, fell upon their camp.
54 Daud mengambil kepala Goliat, dan dibawanya ke Yerusalem, tetapi senjata-senjata Goliat disimpannya di dalam kemahnya sendiri.
And David taking the head of the Philistine brought it to Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.
55 Ketika Saul melihat Daud pergi melawan Goliat, bertanyalah ia kepada Abner penglima tentaranya, "Abner, anak siapakah dia?" "Hamba tidak tahu, Baginda," jawab Abner.
Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the Philistines, he said to Abner the captain of the army: Of what family is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth, O king, I know not.
56 Lalu perintah Saul, "Pergilah dan tanyakanlah hal itu."
And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this man is.
57 Jadi ketika Daud kembali ke perkemahan sesudah membunuh Goliat, ia dibawa Abner menghadap Saul. Daud masih menjinjing kepala Goliat.
And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain, Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
58 Lalu bertanyalah Saul kepadanya, "Hai anak muda! anak siapa engkau?" Daud menjawab, "Hamba ini anak Isai dari Betlehem."
And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou? And David said: I am the son of thy servant Isai the Bethlehemite.
