David’s Command to Solomon
1Ketika saat kematian Daud mendekat, ia berpesan kepada Salomo, anaknya: 2"Aku ini akan menempuh jalan segala yang fana, maka kuatkanlah hatimu dan berlakulah seperti laki-laki. 3Lakukanlah kewajibanmu dengan setia terhadap TUHAN, Allahmu, dengan hidup menurut jalan yang ditunjukkan-Nya, dan dengan tetap mengikuti segala ketetapan, perintah, peraturan dan ketentuan-Nya, seperti yang tertulis dalam hukum Musa, supaya engkau beruntung dalam segala yang kaulakukan dan dalam segala yang kautuju, 4dan supaya TUHAN menepati janji yang diucapkan-Nya tentang aku, yakni: Jika anak-anakmu laki-laki tetap hidup di hadapan-Ku dengan setia, dengan segenap hati dan dengan segenap jiwa, maka keturunanmu takkan terputus dari takhta kerajaan Israel.
1As David’s time to die drew near, he commanded his son Solomon, saying, 2“I am going the way of all the earth. So be strong, and prove yourself a man. 3“Do your duty to the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, His commandments, His ordinances, and His testimonies, according to what is written in the Law of Moses, so that you may succeed in all that you do and wherever you turn, 4so that the LORD may fulfill His promise which He spoke regarding me, saying, ‘If your sons are careful about their way, to walk before Me in truth with all their heart and all their soul, you shall not be deprived of a man to occupy the throne of Israel.’
5Dan lagi engkaupun mengetahui apa yang dilakukan kepadaku oleh Yoab, anak Zeruya, apa yang dilakukannya kepada kedua panglima Israel, yakni Abner bin Ner dan Amasa bin Yeter. Ia membunuh mereka dan menumpahkan darah dalam zaman damai seakan-akan ada perang, sehingga sabuk pinggangnya dan kasut kakinya berlumuran darah. 6Maka bertindaklah dengan bijaksana dan janganlah biarkan yang ubanan itu turun dengan selamat ke dalam dunia orang mati. 7Tetapi kepada anak-anak Barzilai, orang Gilead itu, haruslah kautunjukkan kemurahan hati. Biarlah mereka termasuk golongan yang mendapat makanan dari mejamu, sebab merekapun menunjukkan kesetiaannya dengan menyambut aku pada waktu aku melarikan diri dari depan kakakmu Absalom. 8Juga masih ada padamu Simei bin Gera, orang Benyamin, dari Bahurim. Dialah yang mengutuki aku dengan kutuk yang kejam pada waktu aku pergi ke Mahanaim, tetapi kemudian ia datang menyongsong aku di sungai Yordan dan aku telah bersumpah kepadanya demi TUHAN: Takkan kubunuh engkau dengan pedang ! 9Sekarang janganlah bebaskan dia dari hukuman, sebab engkau seorang yang bijaksana dan tahu apa yang harus kaulakukan kepadanya untuk membuat yang ubanan itu turun dengan berdarah ke dalam dunia orang mati."
5“Now you yourself also know what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, what he did to the two commanders of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner and to Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed; he also shed the blood of war in peace. And he put the blood of war on his belt that was on his waist, and on his sandals that were on his feet. 6“So act as your wisdom dictates, and do not let his gray hair go down to Sheol in peace. 7“However, show kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be among those who eat at your table; for they assisted me when I fled from Absalom your brother. 8“And behold, you have with you Shimei the son of Gera the Benjaminite, of Bahurim; now it was he who cursed me with a painful curse on the day I went to Mahanaim. But when he came down to meet me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the LORD, saying, ‘I will not put you to death with the sword.’ 9“But now do not leave him unpunished, for you are a wise man; and you will know what to do to him, and you will bring his gray hair down to Sheol with blood.”
Death of David
10Kemudian Daud mendapat perhentian bersama-sama nenek moyangnya, dan ia dikuburkan di kota Daud. 11Dan Daud memerintah orang Israel selama empat puluh tahun; di Hebron ia memerintah tujuh tahun, dan di Yerusalem ia memerintah tiga puluh tiga tahun. 12Salomo duduk di atas takhta Daud, ayahnya, dan kerajaannya sangat kokoh.
10Then David lay down with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David. 11Now the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years: in Hebron he reigned for seven years, and in Jerusalem he reigned for thirty-three years. 12Then Solomon sat on the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was firmly established.
13Pada suatu hari Adonia, anak Hagit, masuk menghadap Batsyeba, ibu Salomo, lalu perempuan itu berkata: "Apakah engkau datang dengan maksud damai ?" Jawabnya: "Ya, damai !" 14Kemudian katanya: "Ada sesuatu yang hendak kukatakan kepadamu." Jawab perempuan itu: "Katakanlah !" 15Lalu katanya: "Engkau sendiri tahu bahwa akulah yang berhak atas kedudukan raja, dan bahwa seluruh Israel mengharapkan, supaya aku menjadi raja; tetapi sebaliknya kedudukan raja jatuh kepada adikku, sebab dari Tuhanlah ia mendapatnya. 16Dan sekarang, satu permintaan saja kusampaikan kepadamu; janganlah tolak permintaanku." Jawab perempuan itu kepadanya: "Katakanlah !" 17Maka katanya: "Bicarakanlah kiranya dengan raja Salomo, sebab ia tidak akan menolak permintaanmu, supaya Abisag, gadis Sunem itu, diberikannya kepadaku menjadi isteriku." 18Jawab Batsyeba: "Baik, aku akan membicarakan hal itu untuk engkau dengan raja."
13Now Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. So she said, “Do you come peacefully?” And he said, “Peacefully.” 14Then he said, “I have something to say to you.” And she said, “Speak.” 15So he said, “You yourself know that the kingdom was mine and that all Israel intended for me to be king; however, the kingdom has turned around and become my brother’s, for it was his from the LORD. 16“So now I am making one request of you; do not refuse me.” And she said to him, “Speak.” 17Then he said, “Please speak to Solomon the king—for he will not refuse you—that he may give me Abishag the Shunammite as a wife.” 18And Bathsheba said, “Very well; I will speak to the king for you.”
Adonijah Executed
19Batsyeba masuk menghadap raja Salomo untuk membicarakan hal itu untuk Adonia, lalu bangkitlah raja mendapatkannya serta tunduk menyembah kepadanya; kemudian duduklah ia di atas takhtanya dan ia menyuruh meletakkan kursi untuk bunda raja, lalu perempuan itu duduk di sebelah kanannya. 20Berkatalah perempuan itu: "Suatu permintaan kecil saja yang kusampaikan kepadamu, janganlah tolak permintaanku." Jawab raja kepadanya: "Mintalah, ya ibu, sebab aku tidak akan menolak permintaanmu." 21Kata perempuan itu: "Biarlah Abisag, gadis Sunem itu, diberikan kepada kakakmu Adonia menjadi isterinya." 22Tetapi raja Salomo menjawab ibunya: "Mengapa engkau meminta hanya Abisag, gadis Sunem itu, untuk Adonia ? Minta jugalah untuknya kedudukan raja ! Bukankah dia saudaraku yang lebih tua, dan di pihaknya ada imam Abyatar dan Yoab, anak Zeruya ?" 23Lalu bersumpahlah raja Salomo demi TUHAN: "Beginilah kiranya Allah menghukum aku, bahkan lebih dari pada itu, jika Adonia tidak membayarkan nyawanya dengan permintaan ini ! 24Oleh sebab itu, demi TUHAN yang hidup, yang menegakkan aku dan mendudukkan aku di atas takhta Daud, ayahku, dan yang membuat bagiku suatu keluarga seperti yang dijanjikan-Nya: pada hari ini juga Adonia harus dibunuh." 25Lalu raja Salomo menyerahkan hal itu kepada Benaya bin Yoyada; orang ini memancung dia sehingga mati.
19So Bathsheba went to King Solomon, to speak to him for Adonijah. And the king stood to meet her, bowed to her, and sat on his throne; then he had a throne set up for the king’s mother, and she sat on his right. 20Then she said, “I am making one small request of you; do not refuse me.” And the king said to her, “Ask, my mother, for I will not refuse you.” 21So she said, “Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother as a wife.” 22But King Solomon answered and said to his mother, “And why are you requesting Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Request for him the kingdom as well—since he is my older brother—for him, for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah!” 23Then King Solomon swore by the LORD, saying, “May God do so to me and more so, if Adonijah has not spoken this word against his own life! 24“Now then, as the LORD lives, who has established me and set me on the throne of David my father, and has made me a house just as He promised, Adonijah certainly shall be put to death today!” 25Then King Solomon sent the order by Benaiah the son of Jehoiada; and he struck him so that he died.
26Dan kepada imam Abyatar raja berkata: "Pergilah ke Anatot, ke tanah milikmu, sebab engkau patut dihukum mati, tetapi pada hari ini aku tidak akan membunuh engkau, oleh karena engkau telah mengangkat tabut Tuhan ALLAH di depan Daud, ayahku, dan oleh karena engkau telah turut menderita dalam segala sengsara yang diderita ayahku." 27Lalu Salomo memecat Abyatar dari jabatannya sebagai imam TUHAN. Dengan demikian Salomo memenuhi firman TUHAN yang telah dikatakan-Nya di Silo mengenai keluarga Eli.
26Then to Abiathar the priest the king said, “Go to Anathoth to your own field, for you deserve to die; but I will not put you to death at this time, because you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before my father David, and because you were afflicted in everything with which my father was afflicted.” 27So Solomon dismissed Abiathar from being priest to the LORD, to fulfill the word of the LORD, which He had spoken regarding the house of Eli in Shiloh.
Joab Executed
28Ketika kabar itu sampai kepada Yoab -- memang Yoab telah memihak kepada Adonia, sekalipun ia tidak memihak kepada Absalom -- maka larilah Yoab ke kemah TUHAN, lalu memegang tanduk-tanduk mezbah. 29Kemudian diberitahukanlah kepada Salomo, bahwa Yoab sudah lari ke kemah TUHAN, dan telah ada di samping mezbah. Lalu Salomo menyuruh Benaya bin Yoyada: "Pergilah, pancung dia." 30Benaya masuk ke dalam kemah TUHAN serta berkata kepadanya: "Beginilah kata raja: Keluarlah." Jawabnya: "Tidak, sebab di sinilah aku mau mati." Lalu Benaya menyampaikan jawab itu kepada raja, katanya: "Beginilah kata Yoab dan beginilah jawabnya kepadaku." 31Kata raja kepadanya: "Perbuatlah seperti yang dikatakannya; pancunglah dia dan kuburkanlah dia; dengan demikian engkau menjauhkan dari padaku dan dari pada kaumku noda darah yang ditumpahkan Yoab dengan tidak beralasan. 32Dan TUHAN akan menanggungkan darahnya kepadanya sendiri, karena ia telah membunuh dua orang yang lebih benar dan lebih baik dari padanya. Ia membunuh mereka dengan pedang, dengan tidak diketahui ayahku Daud, yaitu Abner bin Ner, panglima Israel, dan Amasa bin Yeter, panglima Yehuda. 33Demikianlah darah mereka akan ditanggungkan kepada Yoab dan keturunannya untuk selama-lamanya, tetapi Daud dan keturunannya dan keluarganya dan takhtanya akan mendapat selamat dari pada TUHAN sampai selama-lamanya." 34Maka berangkatlah Benaya bin Yoyada, lalu memancung dan membunuh Yoab, kemudian dia dikuburkan di rumahnya sendiri di padang gurun. 35Raja mengangkat Benaya bin Yoyada menggantikan Yoab menjadi kepala tentara; dan raja mengangkat imam Zadok menggantikan Abyatar.
28Now the news came to Joab because Joab had followed Adonijah, though he had not followed Absalom. So Joab fled to the tent of the LORD and took hold of the horns of the altar. 29And it was reported to King Solomon that Joab had fled to the tent of the LORD, and was beside the altar. Then Solomon sent Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, execute him.” 30So Benaiah came to the tent of the LORD and said to him, “This is what the king has said: ‘Come out.’” But he said, “No, for I will die here.” So Benaiah brought back word to the king, saying, “This is what Joab spoke, and so he answered me.” 31And the king said to him, “Do just as he has spoken, and execute him and bury him, so that you may remove from me and from my father’s house the blood which Joab shed without justification. 32“The LORD will return his blood on his own head, because he struck two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword, while my father David did not know about it: Abner the son of Ner, commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, commander of the army of Judah. 33“So their blood shall return on the head of Joab and on the head of his descendants forever; but for David and his descendants, and his house and his throne, may there be peace from the LORD forever.” 34Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada went up and struck him and put him to death, and he was buried at his own house in the wilderness. 35And the king appointed Benaiah the son of Jehoiada over the army in his place, and the king appointed Zadok the priest in place of Abiathar.
Shimei Executed
36Kemudian raja menyuruh memanggil Simei, dan berkata kepadanya: "Dirikanlah bagimu sebuah rumah di Yerusalem, diamlah di sana, dan janganlah keluar dari sana ke mana-manapun. 37Sebab ketahuilah sungguh-sungguh, bahwa pada waktu engkau keluar dan menyeberangi sungai Kidron, pastilah engkau mati dibunuh dan darahmu akan ditanggungkan kepadamu sendiri." 38Lalu berkatalah Simei kepada raja: "Baiklah demikian ! Seperti yang tuanku raja katakan, demikianlah akan dilakukan hambamu ini." Lalu Simei diam di Yerusalem beberapa waktu lamanya.
36Now the king sent men and summoned Shimei, and said to him, “Build yourself a house in Jerusalem and live there, and do not leave there for any other place. 37“For on the day you leave and cross the brook Kidron, you will know for certain that you will assuredly die; your blood will be on your own head.” 38Shimei then said to the king, “The word is good. Just as my lord the king has spoken, so your servant shall do.” So Shimei lived in Jerusalem for many days.
39Dan sesudah lewat tiga tahun, terjadilah bahwa dua orang hamba Simei lari kepada Akhis bin Maakha, raja Gat, lalu diberitahukan kepada Simei: "Ketahuilah, kedua orang hambamu ada di Gat." 40Maka berkemaslah Simei, dipelanainya keledainya, dan pergilah ia ke Gat, kepada Akhis, untuk mencari hambanya itu. Lalu Simei pulang dan membawa mereka dari Gat. 41Ketika diberitahukan kepada Salomo, bahwa tadinya Simei pergi dari Yerusalem ke Gat dan sekarang sudah pulang, 42maka raja menyuruh memanggil Simei dan berkata kepadanya: "Bukankah aku telah menyuruh engkau bersumpah demi TUHAN dan telah memperingatkan engkau, begini: Ketahuilah sungguh-sungguh, bahwa pada waktu engkau keluar dan pergi ke mana-manapun, pastilah engkau mati dibunuh ! Dan engkau telah menjawab: Baiklah demikian, aku akan mentaatinya. 43Mengapa engkau tidak menepati sumpah demi TUHAN itu dan juga perintah yang kuperintahkan kepadamu ?" 44Kemudian kata raja kepada Simei: "Engkau sendiri tahu dalam hatimu segala kejahatan yang kauperbuat kepada Daud, ayahku, maka TUHAN telah menanggungkan kejahatanmu itu kepadamu sendiri. 45Tetapi diberkatilah kiranya raja Salomo dan kokohlah takhta Daud di hadapan TUHAN sampai selama-lamanya." 46Raja memberi perintah kepada Benaya bin Yoyada, lalu keluarlah Benaya, dipancungnya Simei sehingga mati. Demikianlah kerajaan itu kokoh di tangan Salomo.
39But it came about at the end of three years, that two of Shimei’s servants ran away to Achish son of Maacah, king of Gath. And others told Shimei, saying, “Behold, your servants are in Gath.” 40Then Shimei got up and saddled his donkey, and went to Gath to Achish, to search for his servants. And Shimei went and brought his servants from Gath. 41And it was reported to Solomon that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath, and had returned. 42So the king sent men and summoned Shimei, and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the LORD, and solemnly warn you, saying, ‘Know for certain that on the day you depart and go anywhere, you shall assuredly die’? And you said to me, ‘The word I have heard is good.’ 43“Why then have you not kept the oath of the LORD, and the command which I imposed on you?” 44The king also said to Shimei, “You yourself know all the evil that you acknowledge in your heart, which you did to my father David; therefore the LORD will return your evil on your own head. 45“But King Solomon will be blessed, and the throne of David will be established before the LORD forever.”
46So the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck him so that he died.
And the kingdom was established in the hands of Solomon.
