2 Samuel 7
1 And it comes to pass, when the king sat in his house, and YHWH has given rest to him all around, from all his enemies,
Mfumu itakhazikika mʼnyumba yake yaufumu, Yehova atayipatsa mpumulo kwa adani ake onse woyizungulira,
2 that the king says to Nathan the prophet, “Now see, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, but the Ark of God is dwelling in the midst of the curtain.”
mfumuyo inawuza mneneri Natani kuti, “Ine pano ndikukhala mʼnyumba yomanga ndi mitengo ya mkungudza, pomwe Bokosi la Mulungu lili mu tenti.”
3 And Nathan says to the king, “All that [is] in your heart—go, do, for YHWH [is] with you.”
Natani anayankha mfumu kuti, “Chitani chilichonse chimene chili mu mtima mwanu chifukwa Yehova ali nanu.”
4 And it comes to pass in that night, that the word of YHWH is to Nathan, saying,
Usiku umenewo mawu a Yehova anafika kwa Natani ndipo anati,
5 “Go, and you have said to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH: Do you build for Me a house for My dwelling in?
“Pita kamuwuze mtumiki wanga Davide kuti, ‘Yehova akunena kuti: kodi ndiwe amene udzandimangira Ine nyumba yokhalamo?
6 For I have not dwelt in a house even from the day of My bringing up the sons of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, and am walking up and down in a tent and in a dwelling place.
Ine sindinakhalepo mʼnyumba kuyambira tsiku limene ndinatulutsa Aisraeli mʼdziko la Igupto mpaka lero lino. Ndakhala ndikuyenda uku ndi uku ndipo mokhala mwanga munali mu tenti.
7 During all [the time] that I have walked up and down among all the sons of Israel, have I spoken a word with one of the tribes of Israel, which I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why have you not built a house of cedars for Me?
Konse ndakhala ndikuyenda ndi Aisraeli onse, kodi ndinanenapo kwa wina aliyense atsogoleri awo, amene ndinamulamula kuweta anthu anga Aisraeli kuti, nʼchifukwa chiyani simunandimangire nyumba ya mitengo ya mkungudza?’”
8 And now, thus you say to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: I have taken you from the pasture, from after the flock, to be leader over My people, over Israel;
“Ndipo tsopano umuwuze mtumiki wanga Davide kuti, ‘Yehova Wamphamvuzonse akuti: Ine ndinakutenga ku busa ukuweta nkhosa kuti ukhale mtsogoleri wa anthu anga Aisraeli.
9 and I am with you wherever you have gone, and I cut off all your enemies from your presence, and have made a great name for you, as the name of the great ones who [are] in the earth,
Ineyo ndinali nawe kulikonse kumene unkapita, ndipo ndachotsa adani ako onse pamaso pako. Tsopano ndidzakuza dzina lako kuti likhale mʼgulu la mayina a anthu otchuka kwambiri pa dziko lapansi.
10 and I have appointed a place for My people, for Israel, and have planted it, and it has dwelt in its place, and it is not troubled anymore, and the sons of perverseness do not add to afflict it anymore, as in the beginning,
Ndipo ndidzawapatsa malo anthu anga Aisraeli ndipo ndidzawadzala pamalo awoawo kuti asadzavutitsidwenso. Anthu oyipa sadzawazunzanso monga ankachitira poyamba paja,
11 even from the day that I appointed judges over My people Israel; and I have given rest to you from all your enemies, and YHWH has declared to you that YHWH makes a house for you.
monga akhala akuchitira kuchokera nthawi imene ndinasankha atsogoleri a anthu anga Aisraeli. Ine ndidzakupatsaninso mpumulo kwa adani anu onse. “‘Yehova akulengeza kwa iwe kuti Iye mwini adzakhazikitsa banja lako:
12 When your days are full, and you have lain with your fathers, then I have raised up your seed after you which goes out from your bowels, and have established his kingdom;
Masiku ako akadzatha ndipo ukadzakapuma ndi makolo ako, Ine ndidzawutsa mphukira yako imene idzalowa mʼmalo mwako, imene idzachokera mʼthupi mwako, ndipo ndidzakhazikitsa ufumu wake.
13 he builds a house for My Name, and I have established the throne of his kingdom for all time.
Iye ndiye amene adzamangire nyumba Dzina langa, ndipo Ine ndidzakhazikitsa ufumu wake kwamuyaya.
14 I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son; whom in his dealing perversely I have even reproved with a rod of men, and with strokes of the sons of Adam,
Ine ndidzakhala abambo ake, ndipo iye adzakhala mwana wanga. Akadzachita choyipa, Ineyo ndidzamulanga ndi ndodo ndi zikwapu za anthu.
15 and My kindness does not turn aside from him, as I turned it aside from Saul, whom I turned aside from before you,
Koma sindidzasiya kumukonda, monga ndinachitira ndi Sauli, amene ndinamuchotsa iwe usanakhale mfumu.
16 and your house and your kingdom [are] steadfast before you for all time, your throne is established for all time.”
Nyumba yako ndi ufumu wako zidzakhala zamuyaya pamaso panga. Mpando wako waufumu udzakhazikika kwamuyaya!’”
17 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.
Natani anafotokozera Davide mawu onse avumbulutso limene analandira.
18 And King David comes in and sits before YHWH, and says, “Who [am] I, Lord YHWH? And what [is] my house, that You have brought me here?
Choncho Davide analowa mu tenti nakhala pamaso pa Yehova, ndipo anati: “Inu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, ine ndine yani, ndipo banja langa nʼchiyani kuti mundifikitse pamene ndafikapa?”
19 And yet this [is] little in Your eyes, Lord YHWH, and You also speak concerning the house of Your servant far off; and this [is] the law of the man, Lord YHWH.
Ndipo kukhala ngati izi ndi zosakwanira pamaso panu, Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse, mwayankhula zatsogolo la banja la mtumiki wanu. Kodi umu ndi mmene mumachitira ndi munthu, Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse?
20 And what does David add more to speak to You? And You, You have known Your servant, Lord YHWH.
Kodi Davide anenenso chiyani kwa Inu? Pakuti Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse mukumudziwa mtumiki wanu.
21 Because of Your word, and according to Your heart, You have done all this greatness, to cause Your servant to know [it].
Chifukwa cha mawu anu komanso mwa chifuniro chanu, mwachita chinthu chachikulu ichi ndipo mwachiwulula kwa mtumiki wanu.
22 Therefore You have been great, YHWH God, for there is none like You, and there is no God except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Inu ndinu wamkulu, Yehova Wamphamvuzonse! Palibe wina wofanana nanu, ndipo palibe Mulungu wina koma Inu nokha, monga tamvera ndi makutu athu.
23 And who [is] as Your people, as Israel—one nation in the earth, whom God has gone to redeem for a people for Himself, and to make for Himself a name—and to do for Yourself the greatness—even fearful things for Your land, at the presence of Your people, whom You have redeemed for Yourself out of Egypt—[among the] nations and their gods?
Ndipo ndi ndani wofanana ndi anthu anu Aisraeli, mtundu wokhawo pa dziko lapansi umene Mulungu wake anapita kukawuwombola monga anthu akeake ndi kukadzitchukitsa yekha pochita zinthu zodabwitsa zazikulu, pothamangitsa mitundu ina ndi milungu yawo pamaso pa anthu ake, amene Inu munawawombola ku Igupto?
24 Indeed, You establish Your people Israel for Yourself, for a people for Yourself for all time, and You, YHWH, have been to them for God.
Inu mwawapanga anthu anu Aisraeli kukhala anuanu kwamuyaya, ndipo Inu, Inu Yehova ndinu Mulungu wawo.
25 And now, YHWH God, the word which You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, establish for all time, and do as You have spoken.
“Ndipo tsopano Yehova Mulungu, sungani kwamuyaya lonjezo limene mwachita ndi mtumiki wanu ndi banja lake. Chitani monga mwalonjezera,
26 And Your Name is great for all time, saying, YHWH of Hosts [is] God over Israel, and the house of Your servant David is established before You,
kotero dzina lanu lidzakhala lotchuka mpaka muyaya. Ndipo anthu adzanena kuti, ‘Yehova Wamphamvuzonse ndi Mulungu wa Israeli!’ Ndipo banja la mtumiki wanu Davide lidzakhazikika pamaso panu.
27 for You, YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, have uncovered the ear of Your servant, saying, I build a house for you, therefore Your servant has found his heart to pray this prayer to You.
“Inu Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, Mulungu wa Israeli, mwaululira mtumiki wanu ponena kuti, ‘Ine ndidzakumangira iwe nyumba!’ Nʼchifukwa chake ine mtumiki wanu ndalimba mtima kupemphera motere.
28 And now, Lord YHWH, You [are] God Himself, and Your words are truth, and You speak this goodness to Your servant,
Inu Ambuye Wamphamvuzonse, ndinu Mulungu! Mawu anu ndi odalirika, ndipo mwalonjeza zinthu zabwinozi kwa mtumiki wanu.
29 and now, begin and bless the house of Your servant, to be before You for all time, for You, Lord YHWH, have spoken, and by Your blessing the house of Your servant is blessed for all time.”
Ndipo tsopano chikukomereni kudalitsa banja la mtumiki wanu, kuti likhale mpaka muyaya pamaso panu. Pakuti Inu, Yehova Wamphamvuzonse, mwayankhula, ndipo ndi mʼdalitso wanu banja la mtumiki wanu lidzakhala lodalitsika mpaka muyaya.”
