1 Setouknae 17

1 Hahoi Devit teh im ao nah profet Nathan koe Devit ni khenhaw! kai teh sidar thing im dawk ka o. Hateiteh BAWIPA lawkkam thingkong teh lukkarei rim dawk ao telah atipouh.

After David had settled into his palace, he said to Nathan the prophet, “Here I am, living in a house of cedar, while the ark of the covenant of the LORD is under a tent.”

2 Nathan ni Devit koe, na lungthin dawk kaawm e patetlah sak yawkaw, bangkongtetpawiteh, nang koe Cathut ao telah atipouh.

And Nathan replied to David, “Do all that is in your heart, for God is with you.”

3 Hateiteh, hatnae karum dawkvah, Nathan koe Cathut e lawk teh a tho.

But that night the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

4 Ka san Devit hah dei pouh. BAWIPA ni hettelah ati. Ka o nahanelah nang ni im na sak pouh mahoeh.

“Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: You are not the one to build Me a house in which to dwell.

5 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Isarelnaw Izip ram hoi ka tâcokhai hnin hoi atu totouh im dawk awm laipalah lukkarei rim hoi buet touh hoi buet touh ka kampuen teh ouk ka o.

For I have not dwelt in a house from the day I brought Israel up out of Egypt until this day, but I have moved from tent to tent and dwelling to dwelling.

6 Isarelnaw hoi ka ceinae tangkuem dawk hai ka taminaw khoum hanelah kâ na poe e Isarelnaw lawkcengkungnaw koevah, bang dawk maw sidar thing im sak pouh hoeh telah ka ti boihoeh vaw.

In all My journeys with all the Israelites, have I ever asked any of the leaders I appointed to shepherd My people, ‘Why haven’t you built Me a house of cedar?’

7 Hatdawkvah, ka san Devit koe hettelah na dei pouh han. ransahu BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei. Tu pânae hmuen tu na khoumnae koehoi ka tami Isarelnaw dawk siangpahrang lah o hane na la teh,

Now then, you are to tell My servant David that this is what the LORD of Hosts says: I took you from the pasture, from following the flock, to be the ruler over My people Israel.

8 Na cei nah tangkuem dawk nang koe ka o. Na tarannaw hai na tâ pouh, talai dawk ka lentoe poung e na min ka lentoe sak han.

I have been with you wherever you have gone, and I have cut off all your enemies from before you. Now I will make for you a name like the greatest in the land.

9 Hothloilah, ka tami Isarelnaw hane hmuen ka rawi vaiteh, yuengyoe kampuen toung laipalah, amamae hmuen koe kho a sak thai nahanelah, ahnimouh teh ka ung han.

And I will provide a place for My people Israel and will plant them so that they may dwell in a place of their own and be disturbed no more. No longer will the sons of wickedness oppress them as they did at the beginning

10 Yampa hai ka tami Isarelnaw dawk lawkcengkung ka ta pouh nah hai, kahawihoehe canaw ni rep a coungroe awh e patetlah runae poe awh laipalah, na tarannaw pueng hai koung ka sung sak han. Hothloilah, BAWIPA ni na imthungnaw a kangdue sak han telah na dei pouh awh.

and have done since the day I appointed judges over My people Israel. And I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover, I declare to you that the LORD will build a house for you.

11 Hahoi na hnin a pout torei na mintoenaw koe na cei navah, hettelah ao han. Nama dawk hoi ka tâcawt e na capa buet touh ni a kangdue vaiteh, a uknaeram ka caksak han.

And when your days are fulfilled and you go to be with your fathers, I will raise up your descendant after you, one of your own sons, and I will establish his kingdom.

12 Ahni ni im na sak pouh vaiteh, a bawitungkhung hai a yungyoe ka caksak han.

He will build a house for Me, and I will establish his throne forever.

13 Hattorei a na pa lah ka o vaiteh, ahni hai ka capa lah ao han. Nang koe ka lungma e ka lae patetlah ahni koe e bout ka lat mahoeh toe.

I will be his Father, and he will be My son. And I will never remove My loving devotion from him as I removed it from your predecessor.

14 Ka im hoi ka uknaeram teh ahni koe yungyoe ka caksak han. A bawitungkhung hai a yungyoe ka caksak han telah ati.

But I will set him over My house and My kingdom forever, and his throne will be established forever.”

15 Hete lawknaw pueng hoi vision pueng teh, Nathan ni Devit koe a dei pouh.

So Nathan relayed to David all the words of this entire vision.

16 Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang Devit ni a kâen teh, BAWIPA e hmalah a tahung nah laihoi, Oe BAWIPA Cathut, bangpatet lae tami lah maw ka o teh, ka imthung hai bangpatet lae tami lah maw ao awh teh, hettelah totouh na tawm teh na hrawi.

Then King David went in, sat before the LORD, and said, “Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my house, that You have brought me this far?

17 Oe Cathut hete hno heh na mit dawk hno kathoengcae doeh. Hahoi Oe BAWIPA Cathut, na san imthung hma lae kong hah kum moikasaw hane na dei toung dawkvah, kangduenae hmuen ka rasang e tami buet touh lah na pouk.

And as if this was a small thing in Your eyes, O God, You have spoken about the future of the house of Your servant and have regarded me as a man of great distinction, O LORD God.

18 Na san bari lah onae kong dawkvah, Devit ni nang koe bangmaw ka dei han rah, bangkongtetpawiteh, na san hah na panue.

What more can David say to You for so honoring Your servant? For You know Your servant,

19 Oe BAWIPA, na san kecu dawk na lungthin dawk kaawm e patetlah ka lentoe e hno na sak teh, tami pueng na panue sak.

O LORD. For the sake of Your servant and according to Your own heart, You have accomplished this great thing and revealed all Your greatness.

20 Oe BAWIPA, hnâ hoi ka thainae dawkvah, nama patetlae khoeroe awm hoeh. Nama laipalah Cathut alouke khoeroe awm hoeh.

O LORD, there is none like You, and there is no God but You, according to everything we have heard with our own ears.

21 Izip ram hoi na ratang e taminaw e hmalah, Jentelnaw na pâlei e hnin ka lentoe e hah, kângairunae na sak e dawk hoi, namae min lentoenae kamnue sak hanelah, Cathut ni amae tami lah o thai nahanelah ratang han a ngai e Isarelnaw patet e talai van miphun alouke ao boimaw.

And who is like Your people Israel—the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem as a people for Himself? You made a name for Yourself through great and awesome wonders by driving out nations from before Your people, whom You redeemed from Egypt.

22 Bangkongtetpawiteh, na tami Isarelnaw teh yungyoe na tami lah o hane na sak e doeh. Hatdawkvah, nama teh ahnimae BAWIPA Cathut lah na o.

For You have made Your people Israel Your very own forever, and You, O LORD, have become their God.

23 Oe BAWIPA, na san kong hoi na imthung kong dawkvah, na dei e teh, yungyoe hanelah caksak nateh, na dei e patetlah caksak yawkaw.

And now, O LORD, let the word You have spoken concerning Your servant and his house be established forever. Do as You have promised,

24 Hahoi, ransabawi Cathut, Isarel Cathut teh Isarel Cathut doeh telah na min teh, a yungyoe caksak nateh, pholennae awm seh. Na san Devit imthungnaw teh, na hmalah cak naseh.

so that Your name will be established and magnified forever when it is said, ‘The LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, is God over Israel.’ And may the house of Your servant David be established before You.

25 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Oe ka Cathut, na san koevah na imthung ka kangdue sak han telah na kamnue sak toe. Hatdawkvah, na san ni nama koe ka ratoum ngamnae doeh.

For You, my God, have revealed to Your servant that You will build a house for him. Therefore Your servant has found the courage to pray before You.

26 Oe BAWIPA nama teh Cathut lah na o dawk na hawinae teh, na san koe lawk yo na kam toe.

And now, O LORD, You are God! And You have promised this goodness to Your servant.

27 Na san imthungnaw heh na hmalah a yungyoe ao thai awh nahanelah, yawhawinae na poe toe. Bangdawk tetpawiteh, Oe BAWIPA nama ni yaw na hawi sak e teh, yungyoe yawhawinae doeh telah ati.

So now You have been pleased to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue forever before You. For You, O LORD, have blessed it, and it will be blessed forever.”
