1 Chronicles 17
1 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.
Pripetilo se je torej, medtem ko je David sedel v svoji hiši, da je David rekel preroku Natánu: »Glej, jaz prebivam v cedrovi hiši, toda skrinja Gospodove zaveze ostaja pod zavesami.«
2 And Nathan said to David, Do whatever is in your heart, for God is with you.
Potem je Natán rekel Davidu: »Stôri vse, kar je v tvojem srcu, kajti Bog je s teboj.«
3 But that same night, the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
Iste noči se je pripetilo, da je Božja beseda prišla k Natánu, rekoč:
4 Go and say to David my servant, The Lord says, You are not to make me a house for my living-place:
»Pojdi in povej mojemu služabniku Davidu: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Ti mi ne boš gradil hiše, da prebivam v njej,
5 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.
kajti nisem prebival v hiši od dne, ko sem Izraela privedel gor, do današnjega dne, temveč sem šel od šotora k šotoru in od enega šotorskega svetišča k drugemu.
6 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?
Kjerkoli sem hodil z vsem Izraelom, sem mar spregovoril besedo kateremukoli izmed Izraelovih sodnikov, ki sem jim zapovedal, da pasejo moje ljudstvo, rekoč: ›Zakaj mi niste zgradili cedrove hiše?‹
7 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;
Zdaj boš torej tako povedal mojemu služabniku Davidu: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Vzel sem te iz staje za ovce, celó od sledenja ovcam, da bi bil vladar nad mojim ljudstvom Izraelom,
8 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.
in s teboj sem bil kjerkoli si hodil in pred teboj sem iztrebil vse tvoje sovražnike in ti naredil ime, podobno imenu velikih mož, ki so na zemlji.
9 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,
Prav tako bom določil kraj za svoje ljudstvo Izrael in jih zasadil in bodo prebivali na svojem kraju in ne bodo več seljeni niti jih ne bodo več pustošili otroci zlobnosti kakor poprej
10 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.
in odkar sem zapovedal sodnikom, naj bodo nad mojim ljudstvom Izraelom. Poleg tega bom podjarmil vse tvoje sovražnike. Nadalje ti povem še, da ti bo Gospod zgradil hišo.
11 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.
Zgodilo se bo, ko bodo tvoji dnevi pretekli, da moraš oditi, da boš s svojimi očeti, da bom obudil tvoje seme za teboj, ki bo izmed tvojih sinov in jaz bom utrdil njegovo kraljestvo.
12 He will be the builder of my house, and I will make the seat of his authority certain for ever.
Zgradil mi bo hišo in njegov prestol bom utrdil na veke.
13 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;
Jaz bom njegov oče in on bo moj sin. Svoje milosti ne bom odvzel od njega, kakor sem jo odvzel tistemu, ki je bil pred teboj,
14 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.
temveč ga bom postavil v svoji hiši in v svojem kraljestvu na veke in njegov prestol bo utrjen na vékomaj.‹«
15 So Nathan gave David an account of all these words and this vision.
Glede na vse te besede in glede na vse to videnje, tako je Natán govoril Davidu.
16 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?
Kralj David je prišel in se usedel pred Gospodom ter rekel: »Kdo sem jaz, oh Gospod Bog in kaj je moja hiša, da si me privedel sèm?
17 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.
Vendar je bila to majhna stvar v tvojih očeh, oh Bog, kajti govoril si tudi o hiši svojega služabnika za oddaljeni čas, ki pride in si se ozrl name glede na stan človeka visoke stopnje, oh Gospod Bog.
18 What more may David say to you? for you have knowledge of your servant.
Kaj ti lahko David še govori glede časti tvojega služabnika? Kajti poznaš svojega služabnika.
19 O Lord, because of your servant, and from your heart, you have done all these great things and let them be seen.
Oh Gospod, zaradi svojega služabnika in glede na svoje lastno srce, si storil vso to veličino v tem, da si dal spoznati vse te velike stvari.
20 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.
Oh Gospod, nobenega ni podobnega tebi niti ni nobenega Boga poleg tebe, glede na vse, kar smo slišali s svojimi ušesi.
21 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?
Kateri narod na zemlji je podoben tvojemu ljudstvu Izraelu, ki ga je Bog šel odkupit, da postane njegovo lastno ljudstvo, da si si naredil ime veličine in strašnosti s pregonom narodov izpred svojega ljudstva, ki si ga odkupil iz Egipta?
22 For your people Israel you made yours for ever; and you, Lord, became their God.
Kajti svojemu ljudstvu Izraelu si storil, da bo tvoje lastno ljudstvo na veke; in ti, Gospod, postajaš njihov Bog.
23 And now, Lord, let your words about your servant and about his family be made certain for ever, and do as you have said.
Zato sedaj, Gospod, naj bo stvar, ki si jo govoril glede svojega služabnika in glede njegove hiše, utrjena na veke in stôri, kakor si rekel.
24 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.
Naj bo to celo utrjeno, da bo tvoje ime lahko poveličano na veke, rekoč: › Gospod nad bojevniki je Izraelov Bog, celó Bog Izraelu‹ in naj bo hiša tvojega služabnika Davida utrjena pred teboj.
25 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.
Kajti ti, oh moj Bog, si povedal svojemu služabniku, da mu hočeš zgraditi hišo, zato je tvoj služabnik v svojem srcu našel, da moli pred teboj.
26 And now, O Lord, you are God, and you have said you will give this good thing to your servant:
In sedaj, Gospod, ti si Bog in to dobroto si obljubil svojemu služabniku.
27 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.
Zdaj naj ti torej to ugaja, da blagosloviš hišo svojega služabnika, da bo ta lahko pred teboj na veke, kajti ti blagoslavljaš, oh Gospod in to bo blagoslovljeno na veke.«
