2 Samuel 12:18

Alkitab Terjemahan Lama

Hata, selang tujuh hari matilah kanak-kanak itu, maka takutlah segala hamba Daud memaklumkan kepada baginda hal kanak-kanak itu sudah mati, karena katanya: Bahwasanya pada masa kanak-kanak itu lagi hidup jikalau kita bersembah kepada baginda, tiada baginda mau dengar akan sembah kita, entah bagaimana dapat kita sembahkan kepada baginda kanak-kanak itu sudah mati? kalau-kalau ia itu mendatangkan jahat.

Pada hari yang ketujuh matilah anak itu. Dan pegawai-pegawai Daud takut memberitahukan kepadanya, bahwa anak itu sudah mati. Sebab mereka berkata: "Ketika anak itu masih hidup, kita telah berbicara kepadanya, tetapi ia tidak menghiraukan perkataan kita. Bagaimana kita dapat mengatakan kepadanya: anak itu sudah mati? Jangan-jangan ia mencelakakan diri!"

seventh day: vex, Heb. do hurt to, 2 Samuel 12:18, Numbers 20:15

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died,.... Not the seventh day from its being taken ill, but from its birth; for it cannot be thought that David should fast seven days:

and the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead; lest he should be overwhelmed with too much sorrow:

for they said, behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him; to rise from the ground, and eat food:

and he would not hearken unto our voice; we could not prevail upon him to do the one nor the other:

how will he then vex himself if we tell him that the child is dead? or should we acquaint him with it, "he will do mischief" w to himself, to his body; he will tear his flesh to pieces, and cut and kill himself; this they were afraid of, observing the distress and agony he was in while it was living, and therefore they concluded these would increase upon hearing of its death.
