1 Weche Mag Ndalo 17
1 Bangʼ ka Daudi nosedonjo e ode mar ruoth, nowacho ni Nathan janabi niya, “Koro anto adak e od ruoth moger gi yiend sida, to Sandug Muma mar singruok mar Jehova Nyasaye to osiko e bwo hema.”
Now when David was living in his house, he said to Nathan the prophet, See, I am living in a house of cedar-wood, but the ark of the Lord's agreement is under the curtains of a tent.
2 Nathan nodwoko Daudi niya, “gimoro amora manie chunyi to dhi nyime mondo itim nikech Nyasaye ni kodi.”
And Nathan said to David, Do whatever is in your heart, for God is with you.
3 Otienono wach mar Nyasaye nobiro ni Nathan kawacho niya,
But that same night, the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
4 “Dhiyo mondo inyis jatichna Daudi niya, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: In ok nigerna ot mondo adagie.
Go and say to David my servant, The Lord says, You are not to make me a house for my living-place:
5 Pok adak e ot chakre ndalo mane agolo jo-Israel e piny Misri nyaka kawuono. Asebedo kawuotho e kuonde mogurie hema ka adar e kuonde dak mopogore.
For from the day when I took Israel up, till this day, I have had no house, but have gone from tent to tent, and from living-place to living-place.
6 Kuonde duto masewuothoe gi jo-Israel duto, bende asewachoe ni jotendgi mane aketo jokwadh joga niya, “Angʼo momiyo pok ugerona ot mar yiend sida?”’
In all the places where I have gone with all Israel, did I ever say to any of the judges of Israel, whom I made the keepers of my people, Why have you not made for me a house of cedar?
7 “Omiyo koro wach ni jatichna Daudi niya, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye Maratego wacho kama: Ne agoli e lek kuma ne ikwayoe rombe mondo ibed jatend joga Israel.
So now, say to my servant David, The Lord of armies says, I took you from the fields, from keeping sheep, so that you might be a ruler over my people Israel;
8 Asebedo kodi kuonde duto misedhiye, kendo asetieko wasiki duto e nyimi. Koro abiro miyo nyingi bed kaka humb jomadongo manie piny.
And I have been with you wherever you went, cutting off before you all those who were against you; and I will make your name like the name of the greatest ones of the earth.
9 Kendo abiro chiwo piny ni joga Israel kendo abiro gurogi mondo gibed gi pinygi giwegi mondo kik chandgi kendo. Jomahundu ok nochak osandgi kendo kaka negitimonegi mokwongo,
And I will make a resting-place for my people Israel, planting them there, so that they may be in the place which is theirs and never again be moved; and never again will they be made waste by evil men, as they were at first,
10 kendo kaka gisetimo nyaka chakre ne ayier jotelo marito joga Israel. Bende abiro loyo wasiki duto. “‘Awachoni ni Jehova Nyasaye biro geroni ot:
From the time when I put judges over my people Israel; and I will overcome all those who are against you; and I will make you great and the head of a line of kings.
11 Ka ndaloni orumo mitho kendo iluwo kwereni, to abiro keto kothi moro mondo okaw kari, achiel kuom yawuoti minywolo kendo anagur pinyruodhe.
And when the time comes for you to go to your fathers, I will put in your place your seed after you, one of your sons, and I will make his kingdom strong.
12 En ema noger ot ni nyinga kendo anagur lochne osik nyaka chiengʼ.
He will be the builder of my house, and I will make the seat of his authority certain for ever.
13 Anabed wuon-gi, to enobed wuoda. Ok nagol herana kuome kaka ne agolo herana kuom ruoth mane ikawo loch kuome.
I will be to him a father and he will be to me a son; and I will not take my mercy away from him as I took it from him who was before you;
14 Anakete motegno e oda kendo kuom pinyruodhe nyaka chiengʼ, lochne nogur motegno manyaka chiengʼ.’”
But I will make his place in my house and in my kingdom certain for ever; and the seat of his authority will never be overturned.
15 Nathan nonyiso Daudi weche duto mane ofwenyne.
So Nathan gave David an account of all these words and this vision.
16 Eka Ruoth Daudi nodonjo e hema mobet piny e nyim Jehova Nyasaye mowacho niya, “An to an ngʼa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, to jooda to gin ngʼa gini momiyo isetimona gigi duto?
Then David the king went in and took his seat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that you have been my guide till now?
17 To ka gima kamano ok oromo e nyim wangʼi, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, to isewuoyo kuom gima biro timore e od jatichni. Isengʼiya mana ka gima an ngʼat motingʼ malo moloyo ji duto, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.
And this was only a small thing to you, O God; but your words have even been about the far-off future of your servant's family, looking on me as on one of high position, O Lord God.
18 “En angʼo ma Daudi dimed wachoni kuom duongʼ ma isemiyo jatichni? Nikech ingʼeyo jatichni,
What more may David say to you? for you have knowledge of your servant.
19 yaye Jehova Nyasaye. Nikech wach misewacho kendo koluwore gi dwaroni, isetimo tim maduongʼni bende isemiyo singruok madongogi ongʼere.
O Lord, because of your servant, and from your heart, you have done all these great things and let them be seen.
20 “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, onge ngʼama chalo kodi kendo onge Nyasaye moro makmana in, mana kaka wasewinjo gi itwa wawegi.
O Lord, there is no one like you, and no other God but you, as is clear from everything which has come to our ears.
21 Ere oganda machal gi jogi Israel? Bende nitiere oganda moro mane Nyasache osedhi moreso ka gin wasumbini milokogi jogi? Donge isemiyo nyingi duongʼ kuom timbe madongo kendo malich, nimar iseriembo ogendini mamoko e nyim jogi mane ireso kigolo Misri?
And what other nation in the earth, like your people Israel, did a god go out to take for himself, to be his people, making his name great and to be feared, driving out the nations from before your people whom you made free and took out of Egypt?
22 Ne imiyo jogi ma jo-Israel obedo jogi iwuon nyaka chiengʼ to bende in Jehova Nyasaye isebedo Nyasachgi.
For your people Israel you made yours for ever; and you, Lord, became their God.
23 “To koro Jehova Nyasaye, mi singruok misetimo kuom jatichni kod ode mondo ogurre nyaka chiengʼ. Tim mana kaka ne isingori,
And now, Lord, let your words about your servant and about his family be made certain for ever, and do as you have said.
24 mondo mi ogurre kendo nyingi obed maduongʼ nyaka chiengʼ. Eka ji biro wacho ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, en Nyasach jo-Israel!’ Kendo dhood jatichni Daudi nogurre e nyimi.
So let your words be made certain and your name be made great, when men say, The Lord of armies is the God of Israel; and when the family of David your servant is made strong before you.
25 “In, Nyasacha isefwenyo ni jatichni ni ibiro gerona ot omiyo jatichni osebet gi chir mondo olami.
For you, O my God, have let your servant see that you will make him head of a line of kings; and so it has come into your servant's heart to make his prayer to you.
26 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, in e Nyasaye! Kendo isesingo gik mabeyogi ni jatichni.
And now, O Lord, you are God, and you have said you will give this good thing to your servant:
27 Emomiyo iseyie mondo igwedh od jatichni mondo osik e nyimi nyaka chiengʼ nikech isegwedhe kendo inigwedhe nyaka chiengʼ, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.”
And now you have been pleased to give your blessing to the family of your servant, so that it may go on for ever before you; you, O Lord, have given your blessing, and a blessing will be on it for ever.
