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.
It happened, when David lived in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, "Look, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of Jehovah is under curtains."
2 Nathan ni Devit koe, na lungthin dawk kaawm e patetlah sak yawkaw, bangkongtetpawiteh, nang koe Cathut ao telah atipouh.
Nathan said 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.
It happened the same night, that 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 David my servant, 'Thus says Jehovah, "You shall not build me a house to dwell in;
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 lived in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day, but have gone about from tent to tent, and from tabernacle to tabernacle.
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 places in which I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people, saying, 'Why have you not 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 therefore, you shall tell my servant David, 'Thus says Jehovah of hosts, "I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince 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 have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.
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.
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; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the first,
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 from the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel; and I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover I tell you that Jehovah will build you a house.
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 it will come about when your days are fulfilled, when you must go to be with your fathers, that I will raise up your descendant after you, who shall be of your 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 me a house, 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 shall be my son. I will not take my loving kindness away from him, as I took it from him that was before you;
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 settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever. His throne shall be established forever."'"
15 Hete lawknaw pueng hoi vision pueng teh, Nathan ni Devit koe a dei pouh.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.
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 and sat before Jehovah and said, "Who am I, Jehovah God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus 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.
This was a small thing in your eyes, God, but you have spoken of your servant's house for a great while to come, and you have let me look upon the generation of humankind to come, Jehovah 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 can David say yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant, Jehovah.
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.
For your servant's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make known to your servant all these great things.
20 Oe BAWIPA, hnâ hoi ka thainae dawkvah, nama patetlae khoeroe awm hoeh. Nama laipalah Cathut alouke khoeroe awm hoeh.
Jehovah, there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our 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 to be a people for himself, to make a name for yourself by great and awesome deeds, by driving out from before your people, whom you redeemed out of Egypt, a nation and its gods?
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.
And you made your people Israel for yourself to be your people forever; and you, Jehovah, became 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.
Now, Jehovah, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, be established forever, and do as you have spoken.
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.
Let your name be established and magnified forever, saying, 'Jehovah of hosts is the God of Israel,' and the house of David your servant is 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 have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. Therefore your servant has found 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.
Now, Jehovah, you are God, and have promised this good thing 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.
Now it has pleased you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Jehovah, have blessed, and it is blessed forever."
