< ١ أخبار 17 >
وَكَانَ لَمَّا سَكَنَ دَاوُدُ فِي بَيْتِهِ، قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِنَاثَانَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ: «هَأَنَذَا سَاكِنٌ فِي بَيْتٍ مِنْ أَرْزٍ، وَتَابُوتُ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَحْتَ شُقَقٍ!» | ١ 1 |
And it comes to pass as David sat in his house, that David says to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH [is] under curtains”;
فَقَالَ نَاثَانُ لِدَاوُدَ: «ٱفْعَلْ كُلَّ مَا فِي قَلْبِكَ لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ مَعَكَ». | ٢ 2 |
and Nathan says to David, “All that [is] in your heart do, for God [is] with you.”
وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ كَانَ كَلَامُ ٱللهِ إِلَى نَاثَانَ قَائِلًا: | ٣ 3 |
And it comes to pass on that night that a word of God is to Nathan, saying,
«ٱذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتَ لَا تَبْنِي لِي بَيْتًا لِلسُّكْنَى، | ٤ 4 |
“Go, and you have said to My servant David, Thus said YHWH: You do not build for Me the house to dwell in.
لِأَنِّي لَمْ أَسْكُنْ فِي بَيْتٍ مُنْذُ يَوْمِ أَصْعَدْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، بَلْ سِرْتُ مِنْ خَيْمَةٍ إِلَى خَيْمَةٍ، وَمِنْ مَسْكَنٍ إِلَى مَسْكَنٍ. | ٥ 5 |
For I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, and I am [going] from tent to tent, and from the Dwelling Place.
فِي كُلِّ مَا سِرْتُ مَعَ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، هَلْ تَكَلَّمْتُ بِكَلِمَةٍ مَعَ أَحَدِ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَمَرْتُهُمْ أَنْ يَرْعَوْا شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَبْنُوا لِي بَيْتًا مِنْ أَرْزٍ؟ | ٦ 6 |
Wherever I have walked up and down among all Israel, have I spoken a word with one of [the] judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed My people, saying, Why have you not built a house of cedars for Me?
وَٱلْآنَ فَهَكَذَا تَقُولُ لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: أَنَا أَخَذْتُكَ مِنَ ٱلْمَرْبَضِ، مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلْغَنَمِ لِتَكُونَ رَئِيسًا عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٧ 7 |
And now, thus you say to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: I have taken you from the habitation, from after the sheep, to be leader over My people Israel,
وَكُنْتُ مَعَكَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهْتَ، وَقَرَضْتُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ، وَعَمِلْتُ لَكَ ٱسْمًا كَٱسْمِ ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ٨ 8 |
and I am with you wherever you have walked, and I cut off all your enemies from your presence, and have made a name for you like the name of the great ones who [are] in the earth.
وَعَيَّنْتُ مَكَانًا لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَغَرَسْتُهُ فَسَكَنَ فِي مَكَانِهِ، وَلَا يَضْطَرِبُ بَعْدُ، وَلَا يَعُودُ بَنُو ٱلْإِثْمِ يَبْلُونَهُ كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ، | ٩ 9 |
And I have prepared a place for My people Israel, and planted it, and it has dwelt in its place, and is not troubled anymore, and the sons of perverseness do not add to wear it out as at first,
وَمُنْذُ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا أَقَمْتُ قُضَاةً عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَأَذْلَلْتُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ. وَأُخْبِرُكَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَبْنِي لَكَ بَيْتًا. | ١٠ 10 |
indeed, even from the days that I appointed judges over My people Israel. And I have humbled all your enemies, and I declare to you that YHWH builds a house for you.
وَيَكُونُ مَتَى كَمَلَتْ أَيَّامُكَ لِتَذْهَبَ مَعَ آبَائِكَ، أَنِّي أُقِيمُ بَعْدَكَ نَسْلَكَ ٱلَّذِي يَكُونُ مِنْ بَنِيكَ وَأُثَبِّتُ مَمْلَكَتَهُ. | ١١ 11 |
And it has come to pass, when your days have been fulfilled to go with your fathers, that I have raised up your seed after you, who is of your sons, and I have established his kingdom;
هُوَ يَبْنِي لِي بَيْتًا وَأَنَا أُثَبِّتُ كُرْسِيَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. | ١٢ 12 |
he builds a house for Me, and I have established his throne for all time;
أَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُ أَبًا وَهُوَ يَكُونُ لِيَ ٱبْنًا، وَلَا أَنْزِعُ رَحْمَتِي عَنْهُ كَمَا نَزَعْتُهَا عَنِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ قَبْلَكَ. | ١٣ 13 |
I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son, and I do not turn aside My kindness from him as I turned it aside from him who was before you,
وَأُقِيمُهُ فِي بَيْتِي وَمَلَكُوتِي إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَيَكُونُ كُرْسِيُّهُ ثَابِتًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». | ١٤ 14 |
and I have established him in My house, and in My kingdom for all time, and his throne is established for all time.”
فَحَسَبَ جَمِيعِ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ وَحَسَبَ كُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلرُّؤْيَا كَذَلِكَ كَلَّمَ نَاثَانُ دَاوُدَ. | ١٥ 15 |
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.
فَدَخَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ وَجَلَسَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «مَنْ أَنَا أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْإِلَهُ، وَمَاذَا بَيْتِي حَتَّى أَوْصَلْتَنِي إِلَى هُنَا؟ | ١٦ 16 |
And David the king comes in and sits before YHWH, and says, “Who [am] I, O YHWH God, and what [is] my house, that You have brought me here?
وَقَلَّ هَذَا فِي عَيْنَيْكَ يَا ٱللهُ فَتَكَلَّمْتَ عَنْ بَيْتِ عَبْدِكَ إِلَى زَمَانٍ طَوِيلٍ، وَنَظَرْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنَ ٱلْعَلَاءِ كَعَادَةِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْإِلَهُ. | ١٧ 17 |
And this is small in Your eyes, O God, and You speak concerning the house of Your servant far off, and have seen me as a type of the man who is on high, O YHWH God!
فَمَاذَا يَزِيدُ دَاوُدُ بَعْدُ لَكَ لِأَجْلِ إِكْرَامِ عَبْدِكَ وَأَنْتَ قَدْ عَرَفْتَ عَبْدَكَ؟ | ١٨ 18 |
What more does David add to You for the honor of Your servant; and You have known Your servant.
يَارَبُّ، مِنْ أَجْلِ عَبْدِكَ وَحَسَبَ قَلْبِكَ قَدْ فَعَلْتَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْعَظَائِمِ، لِتَظْهَرَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْعَظَائِمِ | ١٩ 19 |
O YHWH, for Your servant’s sake, and according to Your own heart You have done all this greatness, to make known all these great things.
يَارَبُّ، لَيْسَ مِثْلُكَ وَلَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا سَمِعْنَاهُ بِآذَانِنَا. | ٢٠ 20 |
O YHWH, there is none like You, and there is no god except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
وَأَيَّةُ أُمَّةٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِثْلُ شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي سَارَ ٱللهُ لِيَفْتَدِيَهُ لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْبًا، لِتَجْعَلَ لَكَ ٱسْمَ عَظَائِمَ وَمَخَاوِفَ بِطَرْدِكَ أُمَمًا مِنْ أَمَامِ شَعْبِكَ ٱلَّذِي ٱفْتَدَيْتَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ. | ٢١ 21 |
And who [is] as Your people Israel, one nation in the earth whom God has gone to ransom to Himself for a people, to make a great and fearful name for Yourself, to cast out nations from the presence of Your people whom You have ransomed out of Egypt?
وَقَدْ جَعَلْتَ شَعْبَكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِنَفْسِكَ شَعْبًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَأَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ صِرْتَ لَهُمْ إِلَهًا. | ٢٢ 22 |
Indeed, You appoint Your people Israel to Yourself for a people for all time, and You, O YHWH, have been to them for God.
وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ، لِيَثْبُتْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتَ بِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِكَ وَعَنْ بَيْتِهِ وَٱفْعَلْ كَمَا نَطَقْتَ. | ٢٣ 23 |
And now, O YHWH, let the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, be steadfast for all time, and do as You have spoken;
وَلْيَثْبُتْ وَيَتَعَظَّمِ ٱسْمُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، فَيُقَالَ: رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. هُوَ ٱللهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ وَلْيَثْبُتْ بَيْتُ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ أَمَامَكَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
and let it be steadfast, and Your Name is great for all time, saying, YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, [is] God to Israel, and the house of Your servant David is established before You;
لِأَنَّكَ يَا إِلَهِي قَدْ أَعْلَنْتَ لِعَبْدِكَ أَنَّكَ تَبْنِي لَهُ بَيْتًا، لِذَلِكَ وَجَدَ عَبْدُكَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ أَمَامَكَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
for You, O my God, have uncovered the ear of Your servant—to build a house for him, therefore Your servant has found [desire] to pray before You.
وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱللهُ، وَقَدْ وَعَدْتَ عَبْدَكَ بِهَذَا ٱلْخَيْرِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
And now, YHWH, You [are] God Himself, and You speak this goodness concerning Your servant;
وَٱلْآنَ قَدِ ٱرْتَضَيْتَ بِأَنْ تُبَارِكَ بَيْتَ عَبْدِكَ لِيَكُونَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ أَمَامَكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ قَدْ بَارَكْتَ وَهُوَ مُبَارَكٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». | ٢٧ 27 |
and now, You have been pleased to bless the house of Your servant, to be before You for all time; for You, O YHWH, have blessed, and it is blessed for all time.”
