1 Chronicles 17
1 And it came to pass, when David dwelt in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD [dwelleth] under curtains.
A, i a Rawiri e noho ana i tona whare, ka mea a Rawiri ki a Natana poropiti, Na kei te noho ahau ki te whare hita, ko te aaka ia o te kawenata a Ihowa kei raro i te arai kakahu e noho ana.
2 And Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in thine heart; for God is with thee.
Ano ra ko Natana ki a Rawiri, Meatia nga mea katoa i tou ngakau; kei a koe hoki te Atua.
3 And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
Na i taua po ka puta te kupu a te Atua ki a Natana, ka mea,
4 Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me an house to dwell in:
Haere, mea atu ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa, Kaua e hanga e koe he whare hei nohoanga moku:
5 for I have not dwelt in an house since the day that I brought up Israel, unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from [one] tabernacle [to another].
Kahore nei hoki ahau i noho i roto i te whare, o te rangi i kawea mai ai e ahau a Iharaira a taea noatia tenei ra; heoi he noho haere toku i tetahi teneti ki tetahi teneti, i tetahi tapenakara ki tetahi tapenakara.
6 In all places wherein I have walked with all Israel, spake I a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built me an house of cedar?
I oku haereerenga katoa i roto i a Iharaira katoa i puaki ranei tetahi kupu aku ki tetahi o nga kaiwhakarite o Iharaira i whakaritea e ahau hei hepara mo taku iwi? i mea ranei ahau, He aha koutou te hanga whare hita ai moku?
7 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 Israel:
No reira kia penei tau ki atu aianei ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa o nga mano, Naku koe i tango i te nohoanga hipi, i te whai hipi, hei rangatira mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira:
8 and I have been with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee; and I will make thee a name, like unto the name of the great ones that are in the earth.
A, i a koe ahau i ou haerenga katoa; hautopea atu ana e ahau ou hoariri katoa i tou aroaro; a meinga ana koe e ahau hei ingoa, hei pera ano me te ingoa o nga mea nunui o te whenua.
9 And 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,
Na maku e whakarite he wahi mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira; ka whakatokia ano ratou e ahau kia noho ki to ratou ake, e kore ano ratou e ngaueue a muri ake nei; e kore ano ratou e pehia ki raro i muri nei e nga tama a te kino; e kore e pera me to mua,
10 and [as] from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel; and I will subdue all thine enemies. Moreover I tell thee that the LORD will build thee an house.
Me to te wa ano i whakaritea ai e ahau nga kaiwhakarite mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira; a ka pehia e ahau ki raro ou hoariri katoa. Ko tetahi, e mea atu ana ahau ki a koe, ma Ihowa e hanga he whare mou.
11 And it shall come to pass, when thy days be fulfilled that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
A ka tutuki ou ra, ka haere koe ki ou matua, na ka whakaarahia e ahau tou uri i muri i a koe i roto i au tama, ka whakapumautia ano e ahau tona kingitanga.
12 He shall build me an house, and I will establish his throne for ever.
Mana e hanga he whare moku, a ka whakapumautia e ahau tona torona a ake ake.
13 I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee:
Ko ahau hei matua ki a ia, ko ia hei tama ki ahau, e kore ano e mutu toku aroha ki a ia, e kore e pera me toku i mutu ki tera i mua atu na i a koe.
14 but I will settle him in mine house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for ever.
A ka tuturu ia ki toku whare, ki toku kingitanga a ake ake: a ka mau tonu tona torona mo ake tonu atu.
15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
Rite tonu ki enei kupu katoa, ki tenei putanga katoa, nga kupu a Natana ki a Rawiri.
16 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?
Na ka haere a Kingi Rawiri, ka noho ki te aroaro o Ihowa; a ka mea ia, Ko wai ahau, e Ihowa, e te Atua, he aha hoki toku whare, i kawea mai ai ahau e koe ki konei?
17 And this was a small thing in thine eyes, O God; but thou hast spoken of thy servant’s house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.
He mea iti ano tenei ki tau titiro, e te Atua; kua korerotia nei hoki e koe te whare o tau pononga a tau tini noa atu, a kua titiro mai hoki koe ki ahau, ano ki te tangata nui rawa, e Ihowa, e te Atua.
18 What can David [say] yet more unto thee concerning the honour which is done to thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.
Ko te aha ake hei korerotanga ma Rawiri ki a koe mo te whakahonore i tau pononga? e mohio ana hoki koe ki tau pononga.
19 O LORD, for thy servant’s sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou wrought all this greatness, to make known all [these] great things.
He whakaaro ki tau pononga, e Ihowa, rite tonu ano ki ta tou ngakau, i mea ai koe i enei mea nunui katoa, i whakaritea mai ai enei mea nunui katoa.
20 O LORD, there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Kahore he rite mou, e Ihowa, kahore atu hoki he atua, ko koe anake; rite tonu ki nga mea katoa i rongo ai o matou taringa.
21 And what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem unto himself for a people, to make thee a name by great and terrible things, in driving out nations from before thy people, which thou redeemedst out of Egypt?
Ko tehea iwi hoki o te whenua hei rite mo tau iwi, mo Iharaira, i haere nei te Atua ki te hoki hei iwi mana ake, hei mea ingoa mou, ki nga hanga nunui, whakamataku hoki, i te peinga atu i nga tauiwi i te aroaro o tau iwi i hokona nei e koe i Ihi pa?
22 For thy people Israel didst thou make thine own people for ever; and thou, LORD, becamest their God.
Kua meinga nei hoki e koe tau iwi, a Iharaira, hei iwi mau a ake ake: me koe hoki, e Ihowa hei Atua mo ratou.
23 And now, O LORD, let the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, be established for ever, and do as thou hast spoken.
Na whakamana aianei, e Ihowa, te kupu i korerotia e koe mo tau pononga, mo tona whare hoki ake ake, meatia hoki tau i korero ai.
24 And let thy name be established and magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and the house of David thy servant is established before thee.
Kia mana ano, kia whakanuia hoki tou ingoa a ake ake, kia korerotia ai, Ko Ihowa o nga mano te Atua o Iharaira, hei Atua ano ki a Iharaira; a ka tuturu tonu te whare o tau pononga, o Rawiri, ki tou aroaro.
25 For thou, O my God, hast revealed to thy servant that thou wilt build him an house: therefore hath thy servant found [in his heart] to pray before thee.
Nau nei hoki, e toku Atua, i whakapuaki mai ki tau pononga, ka hanga e koe he whare mona: koia te ngakau o tau pononga i anga ai ki te inoi ki tou aroaro.
26 And now, O LORD, thou art God, and hast promised this good thing unto thy servant:
Na ko koe, e Ihowa, te Atua, a kua korerotia e koe tenei mea pai ki tau pononga:
27 and now it hath pleased thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue for ever before thee: for thou, O LORD, hast blessed, and it is blessed for ever.
A kua pai tenei koe ki te manaaki i te whare o tau pononga, kia pumau tonu ai ki tou aroaro: ko koe hoki hei manaaki, e Ihowa, a ka manaakitia ake ake.
