2 Samuel 4 | 2 Samuel 4 |
Isyboset dibunuh 4:1 Ketika didengar anak Saul, bahwa Abner sudah mati di Hebron, maka hilanglah keberaniannya, dan terkejutlah seluruh orang Israel. 4:2 Anak Saul mempunyai dua orang sebagai kepala gerombolan, yang satu bernama Baana dan yang kedua bernama Rekhab, keduanya anak Rimon, orang Benyamin dari Beerot. -- Sebab Beerotpun terhitung daerah Benyamin. 4:3 Orang Beerot sudah melarikan diri ke Gitaim dan menjadi pendatang di sana sampai sekarang. -- 4:4 Yonatan, anak Saul, mempunyai seorang anak laki-laki, yang cacat kakinya. Ia berumur lima tahun, ketika datang kabar tentang Saul dan Yonatan dari Yizreel. Inang pengasuhnya mengangkat dia pada waktu itu, lalu lari, tetapi karena terburu-buru larinya, anak itu jatuh dan menjadi timpang. Ia bernama Mefiboset. 4:5 Anak-anak Rimon, orang Beerot itu, yakni Rekhab dan Baana, pergi, lalu sampai pada waktu hari panas terik ke rumah Isyboset, ketika ia sedang berbaring siang hari. 4:6 Kebetulan penjaga pintu rumah itu mengantuk dan tertidur, ketika sedang membersihkan gandum. Demikianlah Rekhab dan Baana menyusup ke dalam. 4:7 Mereka masuk ke dalam rumah itu, ketika Isyboset sedang berbaring di atas tempat tidurnya di dalam kamar tidurnya, membunuh dia lalu memenggal kepalanya. Mereka membawa kepalanya itu, lalu berjalan semalam-malaman melalui jalan dari Araba-Yordan. 4:8 Kepala Isyboset itu dibawa mereka kepada Daud di Hebron dan mereka berkata kepada raja: "Inilah kepala Isyboset, anak Saul, musuhmu itu, yang ingin mencabut nyawamu; TUHAN pada hari ini telah membiarkan tuanku raja mengadakan pembalasan atas Saul dan atas keturunannya." 4:9 Tetapi Daud menjawab Rekhab dan Baana, saudaranya, anak-anak Rimon, orang Beerot itu, katanya kepada mereka: "Demi TUHAN yang hidup, yang telah membebaskan nyawaku dari segala kesesakan! 4:10 Ketika ada orang yang membawa kabar kepadaku demikian: Saul sudah mati! dan memandang dirinya sebagai orang yang menyampaikan kabar baik, maka aku menangkap dan membunuh dia di Ziklag, dan dengan demikian aku memberikan kepadanya upah kabarnya; 4:11 terlebih lagi sekarang, setelah orang-orang fasik membunuh seorang yang benar, di rumahnya di atas tempat tidurnya, tidakkah aku menuntut darahnya dari pada kamu dan melenyapkan kamu dari muka bumi?" 4:12 Sesudah itu Daud memberi perintah kepada anak buahnya untuk membunuh mereka; tangan dan kaki mereka dipotong, kemudian mayat mereka digantung di tepi telaga di Hebron. Tetapi kepala Isyboset diambil dan dikuburkan di dalam kubur Abner di Hebron. | 4:1 When Saul's son heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost heart, and all Israel was troubled. 4:2 Now Saul's son [had] two men [who were] captains of troops. The name of one [was] Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin. (For Beeroth also was [part] of Benjamin, 4:3 because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have been sojourners there until this day.) 4:4 Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son [who was] lame in [his] feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel; and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened, as she made haste to flee, that he fell and became lame. His name [was] Mephibosheth. 4:5 Then the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, set out and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who was lying on his bed at noon. 4:6 And they came there, all the way into the house, [as though] to get wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped. 4:7 For when they came into the house, he was lying on his bed in his bedroom; then they struck him and killed him, beheaded him and took his head, and were all night escaping through the plain. 4:8 And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David at Hebron, and said to the king, "Here is the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul your enemy, who sought your life; and the LORD has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and his descendants." 4:9 But David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, "[As] the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all adversity, 4:10 "when someone told me, saying, `Look, Saul is dead,' thinking to have brought good news, I arrested him and had him executed in Ziklagthe one who [thought] I would give him a reward for [his] news. 4:11 "How much more, when wicked men have killed a righteous person in his own house on his bed? Therefore, shall I not now require his blood at your hand and remove you from the earth?" 4:12 So David commanded his young men, and they executed them, cut off their hands and feet, and hanged [them] by the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried [it] in the tomb of Abner in Hebron. |
