< 2 صَمُوئيل 7 >

وَبَعْدَ أَنِ اسْتَقَرَّ الْمَلِكُ فِي قَصْرِهِ، وَأَرَاحَهُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ الْمُحِيطِينَ بِهِ، ١ 1
When the king lived in his house, and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies all around,
قَالَ لِنَاثَانَ النَّبِيِّ: «انْظُرْ! أَنَا مُقِيمٌ فِي بَيْتٍ مَصْنُوعٍ مِنْ خَشَبِ أَرْزٍ، بَيْنَمَا تَابُوتُ الرَّبِّ سَاكِنٌ فِي خَيْمَةٍ» ٢ 2
the king said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but God’s ark dwells within curtains.”
فَقَالَ نَاثَانُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «قُمْ وَاصْنَعْ كُلَّ مَا تُحَدِّثُكَ بِهِ نَفْسُكَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ مَعَكَ». ٣ 3
Nathan said to the king, “Go, do all that is in your heart, for the LORD is with you.”
وَلَكِنْ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِنَاثَانَ: ٤ 4
That same night, the LORD’s word came to Nathan, saying,
«اذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ: لَسْتَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي تَبْنِي لِي بَيْتاً لإِقَامَتِي ٥ 5
“Go and tell my servant David, ‘The LORD says, “Should you build me a house for me to dwell in?
فَمُنْذُ أَنْ أَخْرَجْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ لَمْ أَسْكُنْ فِي بَيْتٍ، بَلْ كُنْتُ أَتَنَقَّلُ مِنْ مَكَانٍ إِلَى آخَرَ فِي خَيْمَةٍ هِيَ مَسْكَنٌ لِي. ٦ 6
For I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought the children of Israel up out of Egypt, even to this day, but have moved around in a tent and in a tabernacle.
وَفِي غضُونِ تِلْكَ الْحِقْبَةِ الَّتِي سِرْتُ فِيهَا مَعَ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، هَلْ سَأَلْتُ أَحَدَ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِينَ وَلَّيْتُهُمْ رِعَايَةَ شَعْبِي قَائِلاً: لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَبْنُوا لِي بَيْتاً مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ؟ ٧ 7
In all places in which I have walked with all the children of Israel, did I say a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people Israel, saying, ‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’”’
وَالآنَ قُلْ لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ: هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: أَنَا أَخَذْتُكَ مِنَ الْمَرْبَضِ مِنْ رِعَايَةِ الْغَنَمِ لِتَكُونَ رَئِيساً لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٨ 8
Now therefore tell my servant David this: ‘The LORD of Armies says, “I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people, over Israel.
وَعَضَدْتُكَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهْتَ، أَهْلَكْتُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ، وَجَعَلْتُ لَكَ شُهْرَةً عَظِيمَةً كَشُهْرَةِ عُظَمَاءِ الأَرْضِ. ٩ 9
I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a great name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.
وَأَوْرَثْتُ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَرْضاً مُعَيَّنَةً وَثَبَّتُّهُ فِيهَا، فَسَكَنَ فِي أَرْضِهِ آمِناً، فَلَمْ يَعُدْ بَنُو الإِثْمِ قَادِرِينَ عَلَى إِذْلالِهِ كَمَا جَرَى سَابِقاً، ١٠ 10
I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place and be moved no more. The children of wickedness will not afflict them any more, as at the first,
وَكَما حَدَثَ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَقَمْتُ قُضَاةً عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَقَدْ أَرَحْتُكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكَ، وَقَدْ أَخْبَرَكَ الرَّبُّ أَنَّهُ سَيُثَبِّتُ نَسْلَكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ. ١١ 11
and as from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover the LORD tells you that the LORD will make you a house.
وَمَتَى اسْتَوْفَيْتَ أَيَّامَكَ وَرَقَدْتَ مَعَ آبَائِكَ، فَإِنَّنِي أُقِيمُ بَعْدَكَ مِنْ نَسْلِكَ الَّذِي يَخْرُجُ مِنْ صُلْبِكَ مَنْ أُثَبِّتُ مَمْلَكَتَهُ. ١٢ 12
When your days are fulfilled and you sleep with your fathers, I will set up your offspring after you, who will proceed out of your body, and I will establish his kingdom.
هُوَ يَبْنِي بَيْتاً لاِسْمِي، وَأَنَا أُثَبِّتُ عَرْشَ مَمْلَكَتِهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. ١٣ 13
He will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
أَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُ أَباً وَهُوَ يَكُونُ لِيَ ابْناً، إِنِ انْحَرَفَ أُسَلِّطُ عَلَيْهِ الشُّعُوبَ الأُخْرَى لأُقَوِّمَهُ بِضَرَبَاتِهِمْ. ١٤ 14
I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children of men;
وَلَكِنْ لَا أَنْزِعُ رَحْمَتِي مِنْهُ كَمَا نَزَعْتُهَا مِنْ شَاوُلَ الَّذِي أَزَلْتُهُ مِنْ طَرِيقِكَ. ١٥ 15
but my loving kindness will not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.
وَيَدُومُ بَيْتُكَ وَمَمْلَكَتُكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ أَمَامِي، فَيَكُونُ عَرْشُكَ ثَابِتاً مَدَى الدَّهْرِ». ١٦ 16
Your house and your kingdom will be made sure forever before you. Your throne will be established forever.”’”
فَأَبْلَغَ نَاثَانُ دَاوُدَ جَمِيعَ هَذَا الْكَلامِ بِمُقْتَضَى الرُّؤْيَا الَّتِي أُعْلِنَتْ لَهُ. ١٧ 17
Nathan spoke to David all these words, and according to all this vision.
فَدَخَلَ الْمَلِكُ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَمَثَلَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ قائِلاً: «مَنْ أَنَا يَا سَيِّدِي وَمَنْ هِيَ عَائِلَتِي حَتَّى رَفَعْتَنِي إِلَى هَذَا الْمَقَامِ؟ ١٨ 18
Then David the king went in and sat before the LORD; and he said, “Who am I, Lord GOD, and what is my house, that you have brought me this far?
وَكَأَنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ صَغُرَ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ، فَرُحْتَ تَتَعَهَّدُ بِالْحِفَاظِ عَلَى ذُرِّيَّةِ عَبْدِكَ إِلَى زَمَنٍ طَوِيلٍ. وَهَذَا مَا يَتُوقُ إلَيْهِ قَلْبُ الإِنْسَانِ؟ ١٩ 19
This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord GOD, but you have spoken also of your servant’s house for a great while to come; and this among men, Lord GOD!
وَأَيُّ شَيْءٍ آخَرَ يُمْكِنُ لِدَاوُدَ أَنْ يُخَاطِبَكَ بِهِ؟ فَأَنْتَ تَعْرِفُ حَقِيقَةَ عَبْدِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ. ٢٠ 20
What more can David say to you? For you know your servant, Lord GOD.
لَقَدْ أَجْرَيْتَ هَذِهِ الْعَظَائِمَ إِكْرَاماً لِكَلِمَتِكَ، وَبِمُوْجِبِ إِرَادَتِكَ، وَأَطْلَعْتَ عَلَيْهَا عَبْدَكَ. ٢١ 21
For your word’s sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.
لِذَلِكَ مَا أَعْظَمَكَ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَكَ نَظِيرٌ، وَلَيْسَ هُنَاكَ إِلَهٌ غَيْرَكَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا سَمِعْنَاهُ بِآذَانِنَا. ٢٢ 22
Therefore you are great, LORD God. For there is no one like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
وَأَيَّةُ أُمَّةٍ عَلَى الأَرْضِ تُمَاثِلُ شَعْبَكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي اخْتَرْتَهُ وَافْتَدَيْتَهُ لِيَكُونَ لَكَ شَعْباً وَيُذِيعَ اسْمَكَ، وَأَجْرَيْتَ عَظَائِمَ وَمُعْجِزَاتٍ مُذْهِلَةً، لِتَطْرُدَ مِنْ أَمَامِ شَعْبِكَ الَّذِي أَنْقَذْتَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ، أُمَماً مَعَ آلِهَتِهَا. ٢٣ 23
What one nation in the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make himself a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeemed to yourself out of Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
وَثَبَّتَّهُ لِنَفْسِكَ لِيَكُونَ لَكَ شَعْباً خَاصّاً إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَأَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ صِرْتَ لَهُمْ إِلَهاً. ٢٤ 24
You established for yourself your people Israel to be your people forever; and you, LORD, became their God.
وَالآنَ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ، احْفَظْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ الْوُعُودَ الَّتِي قَطَعْتَهَا لِعَبْدِكَ وَلأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ، وَأَوْفِ بِمَا نَطَقْتَ بِهِ. ٢٥ 25
“Now, LORD God, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and do as you have spoken.
وَلْيَتَعَظَّمِ اسْمُكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فَيَقُولَ الْبَشَرُ: حَقّاً إِنَّ رَبَّ الْجُنُودِ هُوَ إِلَهٌ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَلْيَكُنْ بَيْتُ عَبْدِكَ دَاوُدَ ثَابِتاً أَمَامَكَ، ٢٦ 26
Let your name be magnified forever, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies is God over Israel; and the house of your servant David will be established before you.’
لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا الإِلَهُ الْقَدِيرُ، إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، قَدْ أَعْلَنْتَ لِعَبْدِكَ قَائِلاً: أُقِيمُ مِنْ صُلْبِكَ مُلُوكاً، لِذَلِكَ رَأَى عَبْدُكَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ إلَيْكَ هَذِهِ الصَّلاةَ. ٢٧ 27
For you, LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, have revealed to your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.’ Therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray this prayer to you.
وَالآنَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ أَنْتَ هُوَ اللهُ، وَكَلامُكَ حَقٌّ، وَقَدْ وَعَدْتَ عَبْدَكَ بِهَذَا الْخَيْرِ. ٢٨ 28
“Now, O Lord GOD, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.
فَتَعَطَّفْ وَبَارِكْ بَيْتَ عَبْدِكَ لِيَثْبُتَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ أَمَامَكَ، لأَنَّكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ قَدْ وَعَدْتَ، إذْ بِبَرَكَتِكَ يَتَبَارَكُ بَيْتُ عَبْدِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ». ٢٩ 29
Now therefore, let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord GOD, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing.”
