1 Chronicles 17
1 Nowe afterward when Dauid dwelt in his house, he saide to Nathan the Prophet, Beholde, I dwell in an house of cedar trees, but the Arke of the Lordes couenant remaineth vnder curtaines.
Thuutha wa Daudi gũikara nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki kwa ihinda, akĩĩra mũnabii Nathani atĩrĩ, “Niĩ njikaraga nyũmba ya ũthamaki yakĩtwo na mĩtarakwa, o rĩrĩa ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova rĩigĩtwo hema-inĩ.”
2 Then Nathan said to Dauid, Do all that is in thine heart: for God is with thee.
Nathani agĩcookeria Daudi atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ũrĩa ũreciiria gwĩka-rĩ, wĩke, nĩgũkorwo Ngai arĩ hamwe nawe.”
3 And the same night euen the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
Ũtukũ ũcio kiugo kĩa Ngai gĩgĩkinyĩra Nathani, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
4 Goe, and tell Dauid my seruant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not buylde me an house to dwell in:
“Thiĩ ũkeere ndungata yakwa Daudi atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Wee tiwe wa kũnjakĩra nyũmba ya gũtũũra.
5 For I haue dwelt in no house, since the day that I brought out the childre of Israel vnto this daye, but I haue bene from tent to tent, and from habitation to habitation.
Niĩ ndirĩ ndatũũra nyũmba kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ndaarutire andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri nginya ũmũthĩ. Ndũũraga hema-inĩ, thaamaga kuuma handũ hamwe ngathiĩ harĩa hangĩ, ngoima gĩikaro kĩmwe ngathiĩ kĩrĩa kĩngĩ.
6 Wheresoeuer I haue walked with all Israel spake I one word to any of the iudges of Israel (whome I commanded to feede my people) saying, Why haue ye not built mee an house of cedar trees?
Kũrĩa guothe ndaanathiĩ na andũ a Isiraeli othe-rĩ, ndĩ ndooria mũtongoria o na ũmwe wa arĩa ndaathire marĩithagie andũ akwa atĩrĩ, “Mwagĩte kũnjakĩra nyũmba ya mĩtarakwa nĩkĩ?”’
7 Nowe therefore thus shalt thou say vnto my seruant Dauid, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I tooke thee from the sheepecoat and from following the sheepe, that thou shouldest bee a prince ouer my people Israel.
“Na rĩrĩ, ĩra ndungata yakwa Daudi atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe ekuuga ũũ: Ndaakũrutire rũũru-inĩ, ngĩgũtigithia kũrũmĩrĩra mahiũ nĩguo ũtuĩke mwathi wa andũ akwa a Isiraeli.
8 And I haue bene with thee whithersoeuer thou hast walked, and haue destroyed all thine enemies out of thy sight, and haue made thee a name, like the name of the great men that are in the earth.
Nĩngoretwo nawe kũrĩa guothe wanathiĩ, na ngakwehereria thũ ciaku ciothe ikehera mbere yaku. Rĩu nĩngũtũma rĩĩtwa rĩaku rĩtuĩke inene o ta marĩĩtwa ma andũ arĩa anene mũno a thĩ.
9 (Also I will appoynt a place for my people Israel, and will plant it, that they may dwell in their place, and moue no more: neither shall the wicked people vexe them any more, as at the beginning,
Na nĩngaahe andũ akwa a Isiraeli handũ na ndĩmahaande wega nĩgeetha magĩe na mũciĩ wao kĩũmbe, na matigacooka gũthĩĩnĩka. Andũ aaganu matigacooka kũmahinyĩrĩria rĩngĩ, ta ũrĩa meekaga kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ
10 And since the time that I commanded iudges ouer my people Israel) And I wil subdue all thine enemies: therefore I say vnto thee, that the Lord wil buylde thee an house.
na matũire meekaga kuuma rĩrĩa ndathuurire atongoria a gũtongoragia andũ akwa a Isiraeli. O na nĩngatooria thũ cianyu ciothe. “‘Na ningĩ ngũkwĩra atĩ Jehova we mwene nĩwe ũgũgwakĩra nyũmba:
11 And when thy dayes shalbe fulfilled to go with thy fathers, then will I rayse vp thy seede after thee, which shalbe of thy sonnes, and will stablish his kingdome.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa matukũ maku magaathira nawe ũthiĩ ũgatũũranie na maithe manyu, nĩngarũgamia mũndũ wa rũciaro rwaku athamake ithenya rĩaku, agaakorwo arĩ ũmwe wa ariũ aku, na nĩngahaanda ũthamaki wake.
12 He shall builde me an house, and I will stablish his throne for euer.
Ũcio nĩwe ũkaanjakĩra nyũmba, na nĩngahaanda gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene nginya tene.
13 I wil be his father, and he shalbe my sonne, aud I will not take my mercie away from him, as I tooke it from him that was before thee.
Nĩngatuĩka ithe, nake nĩagatuĩka mũrũ wakwa. Ndikeheria wendo wakwa harĩ we, ta ũrĩa ndehereirie ũrĩa warĩ mbere yaku.
14 But I wil establish him in mine house, and in my kingdome for euer, and his throne shalbe stablished for euer,
Nĩngamũtua mwathi wa nyũmba yakwa na ũthamaki wakwa nginya tene; gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene gĩkehaanda nginya tene.’”
15 According to all these wordes, and according to al this vision. So Nathan spake to Dauid.
Nathani akĩmenyithia Daudi ũhoro wa ũguũrio ũcio wothe.
16 And Dauid the King went in and sate before the Lord and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
Nake Mũthamaki Daudi agĩtoonya, agĩikara thĩ mbere ya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Niĩ ndĩkĩrĩ ũ, Wee Jehova Ngai, nayo nyũmba yakwa-rĩ, ĩkĩrĩ kĩ, atĩ nĩkĩo ũnginyĩtie nginya haha?
17 Yet thou esteeming this a small thing, O God, hast also spoken concerning the house of thy seruaut for a great while, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of hie degree, O Lord God.
Na ta ũndũ ũcio ũrĩ o mũnini maitho-inĩ maku, Wee Ngai-rĩ, nĩwarĩtie ũhoro wa matukũ marĩa magooka makoniĩ nyũmba ya ndungata yaku. Na rĩu Wee Jehova Ngai, ũnyonete ta ndĩ mũndũ ũmwe wa arĩa atũũgĩrie mũno.
18 What can Dauid desire more of thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant.
“Nĩ atĩa ũngĩ Daudi angĩkwĩra nĩ ũndũ wa gũtĩĩa ndungata yaku? Nĩgũkorwo nĩũũĩ ndungata yaku, Wee Jehova.
19 O Lord, for thy seruantes sake, euen according to thine heart hast thou done all this great thing to declare all magnificence.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ndungata yaku na kũringana na wendo waku-rĩ, nĩwĩkĩte ũndũ ũyũ mũnene na ũgatũma ciĩranĩro ici nene imenyeke.
20 Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares.
“Gũtirĩ ũngĩ ũhaana tawe, Wee Jehova, na gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ tiga Wee, o ta ũrĩa tũiguĩte na matũ maitũ.
21 Moreouer what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whose God went to redeeme them to be his people, and to make thy selfe a Name, and to doe great and terrible things by casting out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast deliuered out of Egypt?
Na nũũ ũhaana ta andũ aku a Isiraeli, rũrĩrĩ rũmwe gũkũ thĩ rũrĩa Ngai waruo aakũũrire rũtuĩke andũ ake, nĩgeetha wĩgĩĩre igweta, na wĩke maũndũ manene na ma magegania ma gwĩtigĩrwo, nĩ ũndũ wa kũingata ndũrĩrĩ ciehere mbere ya andũ aku arĩa wakũũrire kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri?
22 For thou hast ordeined thy people Israel to be thine owne people for euer, and thou Lord art become their God.
Watũmire andũ aku a Isiraeli matuĩke andũ aku mwene nginya tene, nawe, Wee Jehova, nĩũtuĩkĩte Ngai wao.
23 Therefore nowe Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruant and concerning his house, be confirmed for euer, and doe as thou hast sayd,
“Na rĩrĩ, Jehova, tũma kĩĩranĩro kĩrĩa weranĩire gĩkoniĩ ndungata yaku na nyũmba yake kĩrũme nginya tene. Na wĩke o ta ũguo wĩranĩire,
24 And let thy name be stable and magnified for euer, that it may be sayd, The Lord of hostes, God of Israel, is the God of Israel, and let the house of Dauid thy seruant bee stablished before thee.
nĩgeetha kĩĩranĩro kĩu kĩĩhaande, narĩo rĩĩtwa rĩaku rĩnenehe nginya tene. Ningĩ andũ nĩmakoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, nĩwe Ngai wa andũ a Isiraeli!’ Na nyũmba ya ndungata yaku Daudi nĩĩkehaanda mbere yaku.”
25 For thou, O my God, hast reueiled vnto the eare of thy seruant, that thou wilt builde him an house: therefore thy seruant hath bene bolde to pray before thee.
“Wee Ngai wakwa, nĩũguũrĩirie ndungata yaku atĩ nĩũkamĩakĩra nyũmba. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndungata yaku nĩĩgĩĩte na ũmĩrĩru wa gũkũhooya.
26 Therefore nowe Lord (for thou art God, and hast spoken this goodnesse vnto thy seruant)
Wee Jehova, nĩwe Ngai! Nĩwĩrĩire ndungata yaku maũndũ maya mega.
27 Now therfore, it hath pleased thee to blesse the house of thy seruant, that it may bee before thee for euer: for thou, O Lord, hast blessed it, and it shalbe blessed for euer.
Rĩu nĩwonete kwagĩrĩire ũrathime nyũmba ya ndungata yaku, nĩgeetha ĩtũũre nginya tene maitho-inĩ maku; nĩgũkorwo, Wee Jehova nĩũmĩrathimĩte, na ĩgũtũũra ĩrĩ ndaathime nginya tene.”
