2 Samuel 7
1 It happened, when the king lived in his house, and Jehovah had given him rest from all his enemies all around,
Na rĩrĩ, thuutha wa mũthamaki gũikara nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki, nake Jehova akamũhe ũhurũko agatiga gũũkĩrĩrwo nĩ thũ ciake ciothe iria ciamũrigiicĩirie-rĩ,
2 that the king said to Nathan the prophet, "See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwells within curtains."
akĩĩra mũnabii Nathani atĩrĩ, “Niĩ njikaraga nyũmba ya ũthamaki yaakĩtwo na mĩtarakwa, o rĩrĩa ithandũkũ rĩa Ngai rĩigĩtwo hema-inĩ.”
3 Nathan said to the king, "Go, do all that is in your heart; for Jehovah is with you."
Nathani agĩcookeria mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ũrĩa ũreciiria, gwĩka ĩka guo tondũ Jehova arĩ hamwe nawe.”
4 It happened the same night, that the word of Jehovah came to Nathan, saying,
Ũtukũ ũcio kiugo kĩa Jehova gĩgĩkinyĩra Nathani, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
5 "Go and tell my servant David, 'Thus says Jehovah, "Shall you build me a house for me to dwell in?
“Thiĩ ũkeere ndungata yakwa Daudi atĩrĩ, ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Anga we nĩwe ũkũnjakĩra nyũmba nĩguo ndĩmĩtũũre?
6 For I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have moved around in a tent and in a tabernacle.
Niĩ ndirĩ ndatũũra nyũmba kuuma mũthenya ũrĩa ndaarutire andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri nginya ũmũthĩ. Ndũũraga thiiaga kũndũ na kũndũ ndĩ hema-inĩ arĩ yo gĩtũũro gĩakwa.
7 In all places in which I have walked throughout Israel, did I say a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people Israel, saying, 'Why have you not built me a house of cedar?'"'
Kũrĩa guothe ndanathiĩ na andũ a Isiraeli othe-rĩ, ndĩ ndooria mũtongoria o na ũmwe wao, arĩa ndaathire marĩithagie andũ akwa a Isiraeli, atĩrĩ, “Mwagĩte kũnjakĩra nyũmba ya mĩtarakwa nĩkĩ?”’
8 Now therefore you shall tell my servant David this, 'Thus says Jehovah of hosts, "I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over 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.
9 And I have been with you wherever you went and have cut off all your enemies from before you, and I will make for you a name like the name of the great ones of the earth.
Nĩ ngoretwo nawe o kũrĩa guothe wanathiĩ, na ngakwehereria thũ ciaku ciothe ikeehera mbere yaku. Rĩu nĩngũtũma rĩĩtwa rĩaku rĩtuĩke inene, o ta marĩĩtwa ma andũ arĩa anene mũno a thĩ.
10 I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as at the first,
Na nĩngaahe andũ akwa a Isiraeli handũ, na ndĩmahaande wega nĩgeetha magĩe na mũciĩ wao kĩũmbe, na matigacooka gũthĩĩnĩka. Andũ aaganu matigacooka kũmahinyĩrĩria rĩngĩ, o ta ũrĩa maatũire meekaga kĩambĩrĩria-inĩ,
11 and from the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover Jehovah tells you that he will build you a house.
o na ũrĩa matũire meekaga kuuma rĩrĩa ndathuurire atongoria a gũtongoragia andũ akwa a Isiraeli. Ningĩ nĩngakũhe ũhurũko kuuma kũrĩ thũ ciaku ciothe. “‘Jehova egũkwĩra atĩ Jehova we mwene nĩwe ũkaarũgamia nyũmba yaku:
12 And it will come about when your days are fulfilled, and you sleep with your fathers, that I will raise up your descendant after you, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa matukũ maku magaathira, ũhurũke hamwe na maithe maku, nĩngarahũra mbeũ yaku ĩcooke ithenya rĩaku, ĩrĩa ĩkoima mũthiimo waku wee mwene, na nĩngarũgamia ũthamaki wake.
13 He will build a house for my name, and I will establish his throne forever.
Ũcio nĩwe ũgaaka nyũmba ĩtanĩtio na Rĩĩtwa Rĩakwa, na nĩngarũgamia gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene wake nginya tene.
14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with a human rod, and with the stripes from human beings;

Nyũmba yaku na ũthamaki waku igũtũũra mbere yakwa nginya tene; o nakĩo gĩtĩ gĩaku kĩa ũnene gĩgũtũũra kĩrĩ kĩrũmu wega nginya tene.’”
17 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.
Nake Nathani akĩĩra Daudi ciugo ciothe cia ũguũrio ũcio.
18 Then king David went in and sat before Jehovah and said, "Who am I, Lord Jehovah, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?
Nake Mũthamaki Daudi agĩtoonya, agĩikara thĩ mbere ya Jehova, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Niĩ ndĩkĩrĩ ũ, Wee Mwathani Jehova, nayo nyũmba yakwa-rĩ, ĩkĩrĩ kĩ, atĩ nĩkĩo ũnginyĩtie nginya haha?
19 This was a small thing in your eyes, my Lord, and you have spoken of your servant's house for a great while to come, and you have let me look upon the generation of humankind to come, Lord Jehovah.
Na rĩrĩ, Wee Mwathani Jehova, wonete ũndũ ũcio ta ũrĩ mũnini maitho-inĩ maku, nawe ũgacooka kwaria ũhoro wa matukũ marĩa magooka makoniĩ nyũmba ya ndungata yaku. Ningĩ Wee Mwathani Jehova ĩno nĩyo njĩra yaku ĩrĩa waragĩria andũ nayo?
20 And what more can David add to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant, Jehovah.
“Nĩ atĩa ũngĩ Daudi angĩkwĩra? Nĩgũkorwo Wee Mwathani Jehova, nĩũĩ ndungata yaku.
21 For your servant's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.
Nĩ ũndũ wa kiugo gĩaku, na kũringana na wendo waku, nĩwĩkĩte ũndũ ũyũ mũnene ũguo, na ũkaũmenyithia ndungata yaku.
22 Therefore you are great, Lord Jehovah. For there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
“Wee Mwathani Jehova, kaĩ ũkĩrĩ mũnene-ĩ! Gũtirĩ ũngĩ tawe, na gũtirĩ Ngai ũngĩ tiga wee, o ta ũrĩa tũiguĩte na matũ maitũ.
23 And what other nation on the earth is like your people Israel, whom God went to redeem for himself, and to make a name for yourself and to do great and awesome deeds by driving out before your people, whom you redeemed for yourself from Egypt, a nation and it's gods?
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 ma magegania na ma gwĩtigĩrwo, na ũndũ wa kũingata ndũrĩrĩ na ngai ciao ciehere mbere ya andũ aku, arĩa wakũũrire kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri?
24 And you established your people Israel for yourself to be your people forever; and you, Jehovah, became their God.

25 And now, my Lord, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and do as you have spoken.
“Na rĩrĩ, Jehova Ngai, tũma kĩĩranĩro kĩrĩa wĩranĩire gĩkoniĩ ndungata yaku na nyũmba yake kĩrũme nginya tene. Na wĩke o ta ũguo wĩranĩire,
26 Let your name be magnified forever, saying, 'Jehovah of hosts is the God of Israel,' and the house of your servant David shall be established before you.

27 For you have revealed to your servant, saying, 'I will build you a house.' Therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray this prayer to you.
“Wee Jehova Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, Ngai wa Isiraeli, nĩũguũrĩirie ndungata yaku ũndũ ũyũ, ũkoiga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩngagwakĩra nyũmba.’ Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndungata yaku nĩĩgĩĩte na ũmĩrĩru wa kũhooya ihooya rĩrĩ.
28 "Now, O Lord Jehovah, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.

29 Now therefore let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord Jehovah, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing."
Rĩu nĩwonete kwagĩrĩire ũrathime nyũmba ya ndungata yaku, nĩgeetha ĩtũũre mbere yaku nginya tene maitho-inĩ maku; nĩgũkorwo Wee Mwathani Jehova nĩwe warĩtie, na nĩ ũndũ wa kĩrathimo gĩaku, nyũmba ya ndungata yaku ĩtũũre ĩraathimĩtwo nginya tene.”
