1 Chronicles 17
1 It happened, when David lived in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, "Look, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD is under curtains."
cum autem habitaret David in domo sua dixit ad Nathan prophetam ecce ego habito in domo cedrina arca autem foederis Domini sub pellibus est
2 Nathan said to David, "Do all that is in your heart; for God is with you."
et ait Nathan ad David omnia quae in corde tuo sunt fac Deus enim tecum est
3 It happened the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
igitur nocte illa factus est sermo Dei ad Nathan dicens
4 "Go and tell David my servant, 'Thus says the LORD, "You shall not build me a house to dwell in;
vade et loquere David servo meo haec dicit Dominus non aedificabis tu mihi domum ad habitandum
5 for I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day, but have gone about from tent to tent, and from tabernacle to tabernacle.
neque enim mansi in domo ex eo tempore quo eduxi Israhel usque ad hanc diem sed fui semper mutans loca tabernaculi et in tentorio
6 In all places in which I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people, saying, 'Why have you not built me a house of cedar?'"'
manens cum omni Israhel numquid locutus sum saltim uni iudicum Israhel quibus praeceperam ut pascerent populum meum et dixi quare non aedificastis mihi domum cedrinam
7 "Now therefore, you shall tell my servant David, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel.
nunc itaque sic loqueris ad servum meum David haec dicit Dominus exercituum ego tuli te cum in pascuis sequereris gregem ut esses dux populi mei Israhel
8 I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.
et fui tecum quocumque perrexisti et interfeci omnes inimicos tuos coram te fecique tibi nomen quasi unius magnorum qui celebrantur in terra
9 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 waste them any more, as at the first,
et dedi locum populo meo Israhel plantabitur et habitabit in eo et ultra non commovebitur nec filii iniquitatis adterent eos sicut a principio
10 and from the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel; and I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover I tell you that the LORD will build you a house.
ex diebus quibus dedi iudices populo meo Israhel et humiliavi universos inimicos tuos adnuntio ergo tibi quod aedificaturus sit domum tibi Dominus
11 And it will come about when your days are fulfilled, when you must go to be with your fathers, that I will raise up your descendant after you, who shall be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
cumque impleveris dies tuos ut vadas ad patres tuos suscitabo semen tuum post te quod erit de filiis tuis et stabiliam regnum eius
12 He will build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.
ipse aedificabit mihi domum et firmabo solium eius usque in aeternum
13 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. I will not take my loving kindness away from him, as I took it from him that was before you;
ego ero ei in patrem et ipse erit mihi in filium et misericordiam meam non auferam ab eo sicut abstuli ab eo qui ante te fuit
14 but I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever. His throne shall be established forever."'"
et statuam eum in domo mea et in regno meo usque in sempiternum et thronus eius erit firmissimus in perpetuum
15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.
iuxta omnia verba haec et iuxta universam visionem istam sic locutus est Nathan ad David
16 Then king David went in and sat before the LORD and said, "Who am I, LORD God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?
cumque venisset rex David et sedisset coram Domino dixit quis ego sum Domine Deus et quae domus mea ut praestares mihi talia
17 This was a small thing in your eyes, God, but 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 God.
sed et hoc parum visum est in conspectu tuo ideoque locutus es super domum servi tui etiam in futurum et fecisti me spectabilem super omnes homines Domine Deus meus
18 What can David say yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant, LORD.
quid ultra addere potest David cum ita glorificaveris servum tuum et cognoveris eum
19 For your servant's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make known to your servant all these great things.
Domine propter famulum tuum iuxta cor tuum fecisti omnem magnificentiam hanc et nota esse voluisti universa magnalia
20 LORD, there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Domine non est similis tui et non est alius deus absque te ex omnibus quos audivimus auribus nostris
21 And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem to be a people for himself, to make a name for yourself by great and awesome deeds, by driving out from before your people, whom you redeemed out of Egypt, a nation and its gods?
quis autem est alius ut populus tuus Israhel gens una in terra ad quam perrexit Deus ut liberaret et faceret populum sibi et magnitudine sua atque terroribus eiceret nationes a facie eius quem de Aegypto liberarat
22 And you made your people Israel for yourself to be your people forever; and you, LORD, became their God.
et posuisti populum tuum Israhel tibi in populum usque in aeternum et tu Domine factus es Deus eius
23 Now, LORD, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, be established forever, and do as you have spoken.
nunc igitur Domine sermo quem locutus es famulo tuo et super domum eius confirmetur in perpetuum et fac sicut locutus es
24 Let your name be established and magnified forever, saying, 'The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel,' and the house of David your servant is established before you.
permaneatque et magnificetur nomen tuum usque in sempiternum et dicatur Dominus exercituum Deus Israhel et domus David servi eius permanens coram eo
25 For you have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you.
tu enim Domine Deus meus revelasti auriculam servi tui ut aedificares ei domum et idcirco invenit servus tuus fiduciam ut oret coram te
26 Now, LORD, you are God, and have promised this good thing to your servant.
nunc ergo Domine tu es Deus et locutus es ad servum tuum tanta beneficia
27 Now it has pleased you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, LORD, have blessed, and it is blessed forever."
et coepisti benedicere domui servi tui ut sit semper coram te te enim Domine benedicente benedicta erit in perpetuum
