< 2 Samuel 7 >
1 After the king had settled into his palace and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies around him,
Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí ọba ń gbé ní ilé rẹ̀, tí Olúwa sì fún un ní ìsinmi yíkákiri kúrò lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
2 he said to Nathan the prophet, “Here I am, living in a house of cedar, while the ark of God remains in a tent.”
Ọba sì wí fún Natani wòlíì pé, “Sá wò ó, èmi ń gbé inú ilẹ̀ tí a fi kedari kọ́, ṣùgbọ́n àpótí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run ń gbé inú ibi tí a fi aṣọ gé.”
3 And Nathan replied to the king, “Go and do all that is in your heart, for the LORD is with you.”
Natani sì wí fún ọba pé, “Lọ, kí o sì ṣe gbogbo èyí tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ, nítorí pé Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”
4 But that night the word of the LORD came to Nathan, saying,
Ó sì ṣe ní òru náà, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Natani wá pé,
5 “Go and tell My servant David that this is what the LORD says: Are you the one to build for Me a house to dwell in?
“Lọ, sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ mi, fún Dafidi pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, ìwọ ó ha kọ́ ilé fún mi tí èmi yóò gbé.
6 For I have not dwelt in a house from the day I brought the Israelites up out of Egypt until this day, but I have moved about with a tent as My dwelling.
Nítorí pé, èmi kò ì ti gbé inú ilé kan láti ọjọ́ tí èmi ti mú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gòkè ti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, títí di òní yìí, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ti ń rìn nínú àgọ́, fún ibùgbé mi.
7 In all My journeys with all the Israelites, have I ever asked any of the leaders I appointed to shepherd My people Israel, ‘Why haven’t you built Me a house of cedar?’
Ní ibi gbogbo tí èmi ti ń rìn pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ǹjẹ́ èmi ti bá ọ̀kan nínú ẹ̀yà Israẹli, tí èmi pa àṣẹ fún láti máa bọ́ àwọn ènìyàn mi àní Israẹli, sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò fi kedari kọ́ ilé fún mi.”’
8 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.
“Ǹjẹ́, nítorí náà, báyìí ni ìwọ yóò sì wí fún ìránṣẹ́ mi àní Dafidi pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, Èmi ti mú ìwọ kúrò láti inú agbo àgùntàn wá láti má tẹ̀lé àwọn àgùntàn, mo sì fi ọ́ jẹ olórí àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní Israẹli.
9 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.
Èmi sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ níbikíbi tí ìwọ ń lọ, èmi sá à gé gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ kúrò níwájú rẹ, èmi sì ti sọ orúkọ rẹ di ńlá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí orúkọ àwọn ènìyàn ńlá tí ó wà ní ayé.
10 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
Èmi ó sì yan ibìkan fún àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní Israẹli, èmi ó sì gbìn wọ́n, wọn ó sì má gbé bí ibùjókòó tiwọn, wọn kì yóò sì sípò padà mọ́; àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn búburú kì yóò sì pọ́n wọn lójúmọ́, bí ìgbà àtijọ́.
11 and have done since the day I appointed judges over My people Israel. I will give you rest from all your enemies. The LORD declares to you that He Himself will establish a house for you.
Àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkókò ìgbà tí èmi ti fi àṣẹ fún àwọn onídàájọ́ lórí àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní Israẹli, èmi fi ìsinmi fún ọ lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ. “‘Olúwa sì wí fún ọ pé Olúwa yóò kọ ilé kan fún ọ.
12 And when your days are fulfilled and you rest with your fathers, I will raise up your descendant after you, who will come from your own body, and I will establish his kingdom.
Nígbà tí ọjọ́ rẹ bá pé, tí ìwọ ó sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ, èmi yóò sì gbé irú-ọmọ rẹ lékè lẹ́yìn rẹ, èyí tí ó ti inú rẹ jáde wá, èmi yóò sì fi ìdí ìjọba rẹ kalẹ̀.
13 He will build a house for My Name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
Òun ó sì kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ mi, èmi yóò sì fi ìdí ìjọba rẹ kalẹ̀ láéláé.
14 I will be his Father, and he will be My son. When he does wrong, I will discipline him with the rod of men and with the blows of the sons of men.
Èmi ó máa ṣe baba fún un, òun yóò sì máa jẹ́ ọmọ mi. Bí òun bá dẹ́ṣẹ̀, èmi yóò sì fi ọ̀pá ènìyàn nà án, àti ìnà àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn.
15 But My loving devotion will never be removed from him as I removed it from Saul, whom I moved out of your way.
Ṣùgbọ́n àánú mi kì yóò yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti mú un kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Saulu, tí èmi ti mú kúrò níwájú rẹ.
16 Your house and kingdom will endure forever before Me, and your throne will be established forever.”
A ó sì fi ìdílé rẹ àti ìjọba rẹ múlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ títí láé, a ó sì fi ìdí ìtẹ́ rẹ múlẹ̀ títí láé.’”
17 So Nathan relayed to David all the words of this entire vision.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ìran yìí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Natani sì sọ fún Dafidi.
18 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?
Dafidi ọba sì wọlé lọ, ó sì dúró níwájú Olúwa, ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa Olódùmarè, ta ni èmi, àti kí sì ni ìdílé mi, tí ìwọ fi mú mi di ìsinsin yìí?
19 And as if this was a small thing in Your eyes, O Lord GOD, You have also spoken about the future of the house of Your servant. Is this Your custom with man, O Lord GOD?
Nǹkan kékeré ni èyí sá à jásí lójú rẹ, Olúwa Olódùmarè; ìwọ sì ti sọ nípa ìdílé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ pẹ̀lú ní ti àkókò tí o jìnnà. Èyí ha ṣe ìwà ènìyàn bí, Olúwa Olódùmarè?
20 What more can David say to You? For You know Your servant, O Lord GOD.
“Àti kín ní ó tún kù tí Dafidi ìbá tún máa wí fún ọ? Ìwọ, Olúwa Olódùmarè mọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.
21 For the sake of Your word and according to Your own heart, You have accomplished this great thing and revealed it to Your servant.
Nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ ọkàn rẹ, ni ìwọ ṣe ṣe gbogbo nǹkan ńlá wọ̀nyí, kí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lè mọ̀.
22 How great You are, O Lord GOD! For there is none like You, and there is no God but You, according to everything we have heard with our own ears.
“Ìwọ sì tóbi, Olúwa Olódùmarè! Kò sì sí ẹni tí ó dàbí rẹ, kò sì sí Ọlọ́run kan lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí àwa fi etí wá gbọ́.
23 And who is like Your people Israel—the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem as a people for Himself and to make a name for Himself? You performed great and awesome wonders by driving out nations and their gods from before Your people, whom You redeemed for Yourself from Egypt.
Orílẹ̀-èdè kan wo ni ó sì ń bẹ ní ayé tí ó dàbí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, àní Israẹli, àwọn tí Ọlọ́run lọ rà padà láti sọ wọ́n di ènìyàn rẹ̀, àti láti sọ wọ́n ní orúkọ, àti láti ṣe nǹkan ńlá fún un yín, àti nǹkan ìyanu fún ilé rẹ̀, níwájú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, tí ìwọ ti rà padà fún ara rẹ láti Ejibiti wá, àní àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àti àwọn òrìṣà wọn.
24 For You have established Your people Israel as Your very own forever, and You, O LORD, have become their God.
Ìwọ sì fi ìdí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, àní Israẹli kalẹ̀ fún ara rẹ láti sọ wọ́n di ènìyàn rẹ títí láé; ìwọ Olúwa sì wá di Ọlọ́run fún wọn.
25 And now, O LORD God, confirm forever the word You have spoken concerning Your servant and his house. Do as You have promised,
“Ǹjẹ́, Olúwa Ọlọ́run, jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ náà tí ìwọ sọ ní ti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, àti ní ti ìdílé rẹ̀, kí ó dúró títí láé, kí ó sí ṣe bí ìwọ ti wí.
26 so that Your name will be magnified forever when it is said, ‘The LORD of Hosts is God over Israel.’ And the house of Your servant David will be established before You.
Jẹ́ kí orúkọ rẹ ó ga títí láé, pé, ‘Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni Ọlọ́run lórí Israẹli!’ Sì jẹ́ kí a fi ìdílé Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ múlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ.
27 For You, O LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, have revealed this to Your servant when You said, ‘I will build a house for you.’ Therefore Your servant has found the courage to offer this prayer to You.
“Nítorí pé ìwọ, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli ti sọ létí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, pé, ‘Èmí ó kọ́ ilé kan fún ọ.’ Nítorí náà ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ sì ṣe ní i lọ́kàn rẹ̀ láti gbàdúrà yìí sí ọ.
28 And now, O Lord GOD, You are God! Your words are true, and You have promised this goodness to Your servant.
Ǹjẹ́, Olúwa Olódùmarè, ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run náà, àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ sì jásí òtítọ́, ìwọ sì jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ nǹkan rere yìí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.
29 Now therefore, may it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue forever before You. For You, O Lord GOD, have spoken, and with Your blessing the house of Your servant will be blessed forever.”
Ǹjẹ́, jẹ́ kí ó wù ọ́ láti bùkún ìdílé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, kí ó wà títí láé níwájú rẹ, nítorí ìwọ, Olúwa Olódùmarè, ni ó ti sọ ọ́: sì jẹ́ kí ìbùkún wà ní ìdílé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ títí láé, nípasẹ̀ ìbùkún rẹ.”
