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.
Mgbe Devid nọsara ahụ nʼụlọeze ya, ọ sịrị Netan onye amụma, “Lee, mụ onwe m na-ebi nʼụlọ sida, ma igbe ọgbụgba ndụ Onyenwe anyị dị nʼokpuru ụlọ ikwu.”
2 Then Nathan said to Dauid, Do all that is in thine heart: for God is with thee.
Netan zaghachiri Devid, “Ihe ọbụla dị gị nʼobi, mee ya, nʼihi na Chineke nọnyeere gị.”
3 And the same night euen the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
Ma nʼabalị ahụ, okwu Chineke rutere Netan ntị, na-asị,
4 Goe, and tell Dauid my seruant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not buylde me an house to dwell in:
“Gaa gwa ohu m Devid sị ya, ‘Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru: Gị onwe gị agaghị ewuru m ụlọ ebe m ga-ebi,
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.
nʼihi na ebibeghị m nʼụlọ site nʼụbọchị m si nʼIjipt kpọpụta Izrel ruo taa. Kama e sitela m nʼotu ọmụma ụlọ ikwu baa na nke ọzọ, sitekwa nʼotu ebe obibi gaa ebe nke ọzọ.
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?
Nʼebe ọbụla m na-ejegharị nʼetiti ndị Izrel niile, ọ dị mgbe m sịrị onye ọbụla nʼime ndị ndu ha, ndị m nyere iwu ka ha zụọ ndị m, sị, “Gịnị mere unu ewubereghị m ụlọ sida?”’
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.
“Ma ugbu a, gwa Devid bụ ohu m, sị, ‘Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile kwuru: Mụ onwe m sitere nʼọhịa ebe ịta nri nke ụmụ anụ ụlọ, sikwa nʼebe ị na-azụ igwe ewu na atụrụ kpọpụta gị, mee gị onye na-achị ndị m Izrel.
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.
Anọnyekwara m gị nʼebe ọbụla ị gara, kpochapụ ndị iro gị niile site nʼihu gị. Ugbu a, aga m eme ka aha gị dịka aha ndị ikom dịkarịsịrị ukwuu nʼụwa.
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,
Aga m ahọpụta otu ebe nʼihi ndị m Izrel, kụkwa ha dịka osisi ka ha biri nʼebe obibi nke aka ha, ka ha ghara ị bụkwa ndị a na-esogbu ọzọ. Ndị ajọ mmadụ agaghị emegbukwa ha dịka ha mere na mbụ,
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.
dịka ha na-emekwa siterị na mgbe m họpụtara ndị ndu nye ndị m Izrel. Aga m eme ka ndị iro gị niile nọrọ nʼokpuru gị. “‘Ana m ekwupụtara gị na Onyenwe anyị ga-ewuru gị ụlọ.
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.
Mgbe ụbọchị gị nʼụwa zuru, mgbe ị gakwuru ndị nna nna gị ha, aga m eme ka otu mkpụrụ gị bilie nọchie ọnọdụ gị, ọ ga-abụ otu nʼime ụmụ ndị ị mụrụ. Aga m emekwa ka alaeze ya guzosie ike.
12 He shall builde me an house, and I will stablish his throne for euer.
Ọ bụ ya onwe ya ga-ewuru m ụlọ, aga m emekwa ka ocheeze ya guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
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.
Mụ onwe m ga-abụrụ ya nna, ya onwe ya ga-abụkwara m nwa. Agaghị m ewezuga ịhụnanya m site nʼebe ọ nọ, dịka m mere onye bu gị ụzọ chịa.
14 But I wil establish him in mine house, and in my kingdome for euer, and his throne shalbe stablished for euer,
Aga m eme ka ọ chịa ụlọ m na nʼalaeze m ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. A ga-emekwa ka ocheeze ya bụrụ ihe guzosiri ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.’”
15 According to all these wordes, and according to al this vision. So Nathan spake to Dauid.
Netan ziri Devid ozi dịka okwu niile nke ọhụ ahụ si dị.
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?
Mgbe ahụ, eze Devid banyere nọdụ ala nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, sị: “Onye ka m bụ, Onyenwe anyị Chineke, gịnịkwa ka ezinaụlọ m bụ, na ị mere ka m bịaruo nʼogogo ha otu a?
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.
O Chineke m, dịka a ga-asị na nke a bụ ihe dị nta nʼanya gị, ugbu a, i kwuola banyere ọdịnihu nke ụlọ ohu gị. Ma gị onwe gị Onyenwe anyị Chineke na-ele m anya dịka a ga-asị na m bụ onye ọnọdụ ya dị elu karịchasịa nke ụmụ mmadụ niile.
18 What can Dauid desire more of thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant.
“Gịnị ọzọ ka Devid ga-agwa gị, nʼihi nsọpụrụ i nyere ohu gị? Nʼihi na ị maara ohu gị nke ọma,
19 O Lord, for thy seruantes sake, euen according to thine heart hast thou done all this great thing to declare all magnificence.
O Onyenwe anyị, nʼihi okwu gị na dịka ọchịchọ obi gị si dị, i meela ihe a dị ukwuu, meekwa ka ọ mata nkwa ndị a niile dị ukwuu.
20 Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares.
“Onyenwe anyị, ọ dịghị onye dịka gị, ọ dịkwaghị Chineke ọzọ dị ma ọ bụghị gị, dịka anyị nụrụ ya na ntị anyị.
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?
Olee ndị dịka ndị gị, bụ Izrel, bụ otu mba nʼelu ụwa ndị Chineke ha gara ịgbapụtara onwe ya ka ọ bụrụ otu ndị, na iji mere onwe gị aha, rụọkwa ọrụ ịtụnanya dị egwu dịkwa ukwuu nʼihi ha, site nʼịchụpụ mba dị iche iche na chi niile ha site nʼihu ndị gị, bụ ndị ị gbapụtara site nʼIjipt?
22 For thou hast ordeined thy people Israel to be thine owne people for euer, and thou Lord art become their God.
I mere ka ndị gị Izrel bụrụ ndị nke gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Gị onwe gị kwa, Onyenwe anyị, abụrụla Chineke ha.
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,
“Ma ugbu a, Onyenwe anyị, mee ka nkwa a nke i kwere banyere ohu gị na ụlọ ya bụrụ nke ga-eguzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Mezukwaa ihe niile dịka nkwa gị si dị,
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.
ka o nwee ike guzosie ike. Ka aha gị bụrụ ihe dị ukwuu ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. Mgbe ahụ ndị mmadụ ga-asị, ‘Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile, Chineke nke na-achị Izrel, bụ Chineke Izrel.’ A ga-emekwa ka ụlọ ohu gị Devid guzosie ike nʼihu gị.
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.
“Gị onwe gị, Chineke m, e kpugheerela ohu gị na ị ga-ewuru ya ụlọ. Ya mere, ohu gị ji nwee obi ike ikpere gị ekpere.
26 Therefore nowe Lord (for thou art God, and hast spoken this goodnesse vnto thy seruant)
Gị onwe gị, Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke. I kweekwala ohu gị nkwa ihe ọma ndị a.
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.
Ugbu a, ọ masịrị gị ịgọzi ụlọ ohu gị, ime ka ọ dịrị na-aga nʼihu gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, nʼihi na gị Onyenwe anyị, agọziela ya. Ọ ga-abụkwa ihe a gọziri agọzi ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
