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.”

And it came to pass, when David had taken up his abode in his house, that David said unto Nathan the prophet, Lo! I, am dwelling in a house of cedars, but, the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, is under curtains.

2 Nathan nodwoko Daudi niya, “gimoro amora manie chunyi to dhi nyime mondo itim nikech Nyasaye ni kodi.”

Then said Nathan unto David, All that is in thy heart, do, —for, God, is with thee.

3 Otienono wach mar Nyasaye nobiro ni Nathan kawacho niya,

But so it was that, in that night, the word of God came unto Nathan, saying:

4 “Dhiyo mondo inyis jatichna Daudi niya, ‘Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: In ok nigerna ot mondo adagie.

Go and say unto David my servant, Thus, saith Yahweh, —Thou, shalt not build me a house, to dwell in;

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.

seeing that I have not dwelt in a house, since the day that I brought up Israel, until this day, —but have been from tent to tent, and without a habitation.

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?”’

Wheresoever I have wandered with all Israel, spake I ever, a word, with one of the judges of Israel, whom I charged to shepherd my people, saying, —Wherefore have ye not built me a house of cedars?

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.

Now, therefore, thus, shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, I myself, took thee from the pasture, from after the flock, —to become leader 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 was with thee whithersoever thou didst go, and have cut off all thine enemies, from before thee, —and will make thee a name, like the name of the great ones, who are in 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 will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall inhabit their place, and be unsettled no more, —neither shall the sons of perversity again wear them out, as at the 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:

even from the days when I put judges in charge over my people Israel, and have subdued all thine enemies, —that I might make thee great, yea, a house, will Yahweh build for thee.

11 Ka ndaloni orumo mitho kendo iluwo kwereni, to abiro keto kothi moro mondo okaw kari, achiel kuom yawuoti minywolo kendo anagur pinyruodhe.

And it shall be that, when thy days are fulfilled, to sleep with thy fathers, then will I raise up thy seed after thee, who shall be of thy sons, —and I will establish his kingdom.

12 En ema noger ot ni nyinga kendo anagur lochne osik nyaka chiengʼ.

He, shall build me a house, —and I will establish his throne unto times age-abiding.

13 Anabed wuon-gi, to enobed wuoda. Ok nagol herana kuome kaka ne agolo herana kuom ruoth mane ikawo loch kuome.

I, will become his father, and, he, shall become my son, —and, my lovingkindness, will I not cause to depart from him, —as I caused it to depart from him who was before thee;

14 Anakete motegno e oda kendo kuom pinyruodhe nyaka chiengʼ, lochne nogur motegno manyaka chiengʼ.’”

but I will cause him to remain over my house and over my kingdom, unto times age-abiding, —and, his throne, shall be established, unto times age-abiding.

15 Nathan nonyiso Daudi weche duto mane ofwenyne.

According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so, spake Nathan unto David.

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 entered King David, and tarried before Yahweh, —and said, Who am, I, O Yahweh God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto;

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 hast made this seem little in thine eyes, O God, in that thou hast spoken concerning the house of thy servant, for a great while to come? Thus wilt thou provide for me, according to the rank of manhood, and hast exalted me, O Yahweh God!

18 “En angʼo ma Daudi dimed wachoni kuom duongʼ ma isemiyo jatichni? Nikech ingʼeyo jatichni,

What, yet further, can David say unto thee, [thus] to honour thy servant, —seeing that, thou thyself, knowest, thine own servant?

19 yaye Jehova Nyasaye. Nikech wach misewacho kendo koluwore gi dwaroni, isetimo tim maduongʼni bende isemiyo singruok madongogi ongʼere.

O Yahweh, for the sake of thy servant, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this great thing, —making known all the great things.

20 “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, onge ngʼama chalo kodi kendo onge Nyasaye moro makmana in, mana kaka wasewinjo gi itwa wawegi.

O Yahweh, there is none like unto thee, yea there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with 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?

Who then is like thy people Israel, a nation alone in the earth, —whom God went to redeem, to be his own people, to make for thyself a name for great and fearful things, to drive out, nations, from before thy people, whom thou didst redeem out of Egypt;

22 Ne imiyo jogi ma jo-Israel obedo jogi iwuon nyaka chiengʼ to bende in Jehova Nyasaye isebedo Nyasachgi.

and didst appoint thy people Israel for thyself as a people, unto times age-abiding, —thou thyself, also, O Yahweh, becoming their God?

23 “To koro Jehova Nyasaye, mi singruok misetimo kuom jatichni kod ode mondo ogurre nyaka chiengʼ. Tim mana kaka ne isingori,

Now, therefore, O Yahweh, the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, be it steadfast unto times age-abiding, —and do as thou hast spoken:

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.

yea let it be steadfast, and so let thy Name be magnified unto times age-abiding, saying, Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, is a God to Israel! seeing that, the house of David thy servant, is established before thee.

25 “In, Nyasacha isefwenyo ni jatichni ni ibiro gerona ot omiyo jatichni osebet gi chir mondo olami.

For, thou, O my God, hast unveiled the ear of thy servant, that thou wilt build for him a house, —for this cause, hath thy servant found [it in his heart] to pray before thee.

26 Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, in e Nyasaye! Kendo isesingo gik mabeyogi ni jatichni.

Now, therefore, O Yahweh, thou, art God, —therefore hast thou spoken concerning thy servant this goodness.

27 Emomiyo iseyie mondo igwedh od jatichni mondo osik e nyimi nyaka chiengʼ nikech isegwedhe kendo inigwedhe nyaka chiengʼ, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.”

Now, therefore, let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be unto times age-abiding before thee, —for, thou O Yahweh, hast blessed, and it is to be blessed unto times age-abiding.
