< 2 Samuel 7 >
1 And it came to pass, when the king dwelt in his house, and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies round about,
Sima na mokonzi kovanda na ndako na ye mpe Yawe kopesa ye bopemi liboso ya banguna na ye nyonso oyo bazingelaki ye,
2 that the king said unto Nathan the prophet: 'See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains.'
mokonzi alobaki na mosakoli Natan: — Tala nanu likambo oyo! Ngai nazali kovanda na ndako batonga na mabaya ya sedele, kasi Sanduku ya Nzambe ezali kovanda kati na ndako ya kapo.
3 And Nathan said to the king: 'Go, do all that is in thy heart; for the LORD is with thee.'
Natan azongiselaki mokonzi: — Sala nyonso oyo ozali na yango na motema, pamba te Yawe azali elongo na yo.
4 And it came to pass the same night, that the word of the LORD came unto Nathan, saying:
Kasi na butu wana, Yawe alobaki na Natan:
5 'Go and tell My servant David: Thus saith the LORD: Shalt thou build Me a house for Me to dwell in?
— Kende koyebisa Davidi, mosali na ngai: « Tala liloba oyo Yawe alobi: Boni, yo nde okotongela ngai ndako mpo ete navanda kati na yango?
6 for I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have walked in a tent and in a tabernacle.
Natikali nanu kovanda na ndako moko te, banda mokolo oyo nabimisaki Isalaele na Ejipito kino lelo; nazalaki kotambola bipai na bipai na se ya ndako ya kapo, wana nazalaki kovanda kati na Mongombo.
7 In all places wherein I have walked among all the children of Israel, spoke I a word with any of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to feed My people Israel, saying: Why have ye not built Me a house of cedar?
Na bisika nyonso oyo natamboli elongo na bana nyonso ya Isalaele, boni, nasilaki koloba ata na moko kati na bakambi na bango, oyo natiaki mpo na kobatela bato na ngai, Isalaele: ‹ Mpo na nini botongeli Ngai te ndako ya mabaya ya sedele? › »
8 Now therefore thus shalt thou say unto My servant David: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: I took thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheep, that thou shouldest be prince over My people, over Israel.
Yebisa sik’oyo Davidi, mosali na Ngai: « Tala makambo oyo Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, alobi: ‹ Ezali Ngai nde nazwaki yo na zamba epai wapi ozalaki koleisa mpe kobatela bibwele, mpo ete nakomisa yo mokonzi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele.
9 And I have been with thee whithersoever thou didst go, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee; and I will make thee a great name, like unto the name of the great ones that are in the earth.
Nazalaki elongo na yo na bisika nyonso oyo okendeki, mpe nabomaki banguna na yo nyonso liboso na yo. Sik’oyo, nakokomisa kombo na yo monene lokola bakombo ya bato minene oyo bazali kati na mokili.
10 And I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disquieted no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as at the first,
Nakobongisa esika mpo na bato na Ngai, Isalaele; nakolona bango mpo ete bazala na esika na bango moko mpe batungisa bango lisusu te. Bato mabe bakonyokola bango lisusu te ndenge bazalaki konyokola bango liboso
11 even from the day that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel; and I will cause thee to rest from all thine enemies. Moreover the LORD telleth thee that the LORD will make thee a house.
mpe ndenge bazalaki kosala bango tango nyonso wuta tango oyo naponaki bakambi ya bato na Ngai, Isalaele. Nakopesa yo bopemi liboso ya banguna na yo nyonso. › Yawe atatoli mpo na yo ete Ye moko akosala ete bokonzi ewumela kati na libota na yo.
12 When thy days are fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, that shall proceed out of thy body, and I will establish his kingdom.
Tango mikolo ya bomoi na yo ekosila mpe okokende kokutana na batata na yo, nakotombola moko kati na bakitani na yo, oyo akobima penza na mokongo na yo, mpo ete akitana na yo; mpe nakolendisa bokonzi na ye.
13 He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever.
Ezali ye nde akotonga Ndako mpo na Kombo na Ngai, mpe Ngai nakolendisa mpo na libela kiti na ye ya bokonzi.
14 I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son; if he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men;
Nakozala Tata mpo na ye, mpe ye akozala mwana mpo na Ngai. Soki asali mabe, nakopesa ye etumbu; nakosalela bato lokola fimbu mpo na kobeta ye.
15 but My mercy shall not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.
Kasi nakotikala kolongola te bolingo na Ngai epai na ye ndenge nalongolaki yango epai ya Saulo oyo nalongolaki liboso na yo.
16 And thy house and thy kingdom shall be made sure for ever before thee; thy throne shall be established for ever.'
Libota na yo ya bokonzi mpe bokonzi na yo ekowumela tango nyonso liboso na Ngai, mpe kiti na yo ya bokonzi ekolendisama mpo na libela. »
17 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
Natan ayebisaki Davidi maloba oyo nyonso mpe emoniseli oyo nyonso.
18 Then David the king went in, and sat before the LORD; and he said: 'Who am I, O Lord GOD, and what is my house, that Thou hast brought me thus far?
Bongo mokonzi Davidi akotaki, avandaki liboso ya Yawe mpe alobaki: « Nkolo Yawe, ngai nazali nani, mpe libota na ngai ezali nini, mpo ete okomisa ngai na esika oyo nazali?
19 And this was yet a small thing in Thine eyes, O Lord GOD; but Thou hast spoken also of Thy servant's house for a great while to come; and this too after the manner of great men, O Lord GOD.
Ah Nkolo Yawe, lokola nde ekokaki te na miso na Yo, olobi lisusu na tina na lobi ya libota ya bokonzi ya mosali na Yo! Ah Nkolo Yawe, boni, ezali boye nde osalaka mpo na bato?
20 And what can David say more unto Thee? for Thou knowest Thy servant, O Lord GOD.
Nini oyo Davidi akoki lisusu koloba na Yo? Pamba te, oh Nkolo Yawe, oyebi mosali na Yo?
21 For Thy word's sake, and according to Thine own heart, hast Thou wrought all this greatness, to make Thy servant know it.
Ezali mpo na Liloba na Yo mpe kolanda mokano na Yo nde okokisi likambo monene oyo, mpe osali ete eyebana epai ya mosali na Yo.
22 Therefore Thou art great, O LORD God; for there is none like Thee, neither is there any God beside Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Oh Nkolo Yawe, ozali monene ndenge nini! Moko te akokani na Yo; mpe, kolanda nyonso oyo toyoki na matoyi na biso, Nzambe mosusu azali te, bobele Yo!
23 And who is like Thy people, like Israel, a nation one in the earth, whom God went to redeem unto Himself for a people, and to make Him a name, and to do for Thy land great things and tremendous, even for you, in driving out from before Thy people, whom Thou didst redeem to Thee out of Egypt, the nations and their gods?
Ekolo nini ekokani na bato na Yo, Isalaele, oyo, kati na mokili, Nzambe akendeki kosikola lokola bato mpo na Ye moko, mpo na kopesa yango kombo mpe kokokisa makambo minene, makambo ya kokamwa mpe ya somo na nzela ya kobengana bikolo elongo na banzambe na bango liboso ya bato na Yo, oyo osikolaki wuta na Ejipito?
24 And Thou didst establish to Thyself Thy people Israel to be a people unto Thee for ever; and Thou, LORD, becamest their God.
Otiaki Isalaele, bato na Yo, mpo ete bazala bato na Yo mpo na libela; bongo Yo, oh Yawe, okomaki Nzambe na bango.
25 And now, O LORD God, the word that Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, confirm Thou it for ever, and do as Thou hast spoken.
Sik’oyo, oh Yawe Nzambe, kokisa mpo na libela elaka oyo opesaki epai ya mosali na Yo mpe epai ya libota na ye. Sala ndenge olakaki
26 And let Thy name be magnified for ever, that it may be said: The LORD of hosts is God over Israel; and the house of Thy servant David shall be established before Thee.
mpo ete Kombo na Yo ekumisama seko na seko, mpe bato bakoma kolobaka: ‹ Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, azali Nzambe ya Isalaele. › Boye bokonzi ya libota ya Davidi, mosali na Yo, ekolendisama liboso na Yo.
27 For Thou, O LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, hast revealed to Thy servant, saying: I will build thee a house; therefore hath Thy servant taken heart to pray this prayer unto Thee.
Oh Yawe, Mokonzi ya mampinga, Nzambe ya Isalaele, olakisaki na mosali na Yo makambo oyo na koloba: ‹ Nakosala ete bokonzi ewumela na libota na yo. › Yango wana mosali na Yo azwi makasi ya kosambela Yo na maloba oyo.
28 And now, O Lord GOD, Thou alone art God, and Thy words are truth, and Thou hast promised this good thing unto Thy servant;
Sik’oyo, oh Nkolo Yawe, ozali penza Nzambe! Maloba na Yo ezali solo, mpe olakaki makambo oyo ya malamu epai ya mosali na Yo.
29 now therefore let it please Thee to bless the house of Thy servant, that it may continue for ever before Thee; for Thou, O Lord GOD, hast spoken it; and through Thy blessing let the house of Thy servant be blessed for ever.'
Sik’oyo, tika ete opambola libota ya mosali na Yo mpo ete ewumela seko liboso na Yo; pamba te oh Nkolo Yawe, Yo nde olobaki, mpe na nzela ya lipamboli na Yo, libota ya mosali na Yo ekopambolama mpo na libela. »
