1 Chronicles 17

1 And it was just when he dwelt David in house his and he said David to Nathan the prophet here! I [am] dwelling in [the] house of cedar and [the] ark of [the] covenant of Yahweh [is] under tent curtains.

And it comes to pass as David sat in his house, that David says to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH [is] under curtains”;

2 And he said Nathan to David all that [is] in heart your do for God [is] with you.

and Nathan says to David, “All that [is] in your heart do, for God [is] with you.”

3 And it was in the night that and it came [the] word of God to Nathan saying.

And it comes to pass on that night that a word of God is to Nathan, saying,

4 Go and you will say to David servant my thus he says Yahweh not you you will build for me the house to dwell in.

“Go, and you have said to My servant David, Thus said YHWH: You do not build for Me the house to dwell in.

5 For not I have dwelt in a house since the day when I brought up Israel until the day this and I have been from tent to tent and from tabernacle.

For I have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, and I am [going] from tent to tent, and from the Dwelling Place.

6 In every where I went about in all Israel ¿ a word did I speak with one of [the] judges of Israel whom I commanded to shepherd people my saying why? not have you built for me a house of cedar.

Wherever I have walked up and down among all Israel, have I spoken a word with one of [the] judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed My people, saying, Why have you not built a house of cedars for Me?

7 And therefore thus you will say to servant my to David. Thus he says Yahweh of hosts I I took you from the pasture from after the flock to be ruler over people my Israel.

And now, thus you say to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: I have taken you from the habitation, from after the sheep, to be leader over My people Israel,

8 And I was with you in every where you went and I cut off all enemies your from before you and I will make for you a name like [the] name of the great [people] who [are] on the earth.

and I am with you wherever you have walked, and I cut off all your enemies from your presence, and have made a name for you like the name of the great ones who [are] in the earth.

9 And I will establish a place for people my Israel and I will plant it and it will dwell in place its and not it will be agitated again and not they will repeat [the] sons of injustice to consume it just as at the former [time].

And I have prepared a place for My people Israel, and planted it, and it has dwelt in its place, and is not troubled anymore, and the sons of perverseness do not add to wear it out as at first,

10 And from days when I appointed judges over people my Israel and I will subdue all enemies your and I have told to you and a house he will build for you Yahweh.

indeed, even from the days that I appointed judges over My people Israel. And I have humbled all your enemies, and I declare to you that YHWH builds a house for you.

11 And it will be that they have been completed days your to go with ancestors your and I will raise up offspring your after you who he will be one of descendants your and I will establish kingdom his.

And it has come to pass, when your days have been fulfilled to go with your fathers, that I have raised up your seed after you, who is of your sons, and I have established his kingdom;

12 He he will build for me a house and I will establish throne his until perpetuity.

he builds a house for Me, and I have established his throne for all time;

13 I I will become of him a father and he he will become of me a son and covenant loyalty my not I will remove from with him just as I removed [it] from [the one] who he was before you.

I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son, and I do not turn aside My kindness from him as I turned it aside from him who was before you,

14 And I will appoint him in house my and in kingdom my until perpetuity and throne his it will be established until perpetuity.

and I have established him in My house, and in My kingdom for all time, and his throne is established for all time.”

15 According to all the words these and according to all the vision this so he spoke Nathan to David.

According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.

16 And he went the king David and he sat before Yahweh and he said who? [am] I O Yahweh God and who? [is] house my that you have brought me to here.

And David the king comes in and sits before YHWH, and says, “Who [am] I, O YHWH God, and what [is] my house, that You have brought me here?

17 And it was small this in view your O God and you have spoken on [the] house of servant your from distant [time] and you have seen me according to [the] order of humankind the going up O Yahweh God.

And this is small in Your eyes, O God, and You speak concerning the house of Your servant far off, and have seen me as a type of the man who is on high, O YHWH God!

18 What? will he add again David to you for honor servant your and you servant your you know.

What more does David add to You for the honor of Your servant; and You have known Your servant.

19 O Yahweh for sake of servant your and according to heart your you have done all the greatness this by making known all the greatness.

O YHWH, for Your servant’s sake, and according to Your own heart You have done all this greatness, to make known all these great things.

20 O Yahweh there not [is] like you and there not [is] a God except you in all that we have heard with ears our.

O YHWH, there is none like You, and there is no god except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

21 And who? [is] like people your Israel a nation one on the earth which he went God to redeem for himself a people to make for yourself a name great things and awesome [deeds] by driving out from before people your which you had redeemed from Egypt nations.

And who [is] as Your people Israel, one nation in the earth whom God has gone to ransom to Himself for a people, to make a great and fearful name for Yourself, to cast out nations from the presence of Your people whom You have ransomed out of Egypt?

22 And you made people your Israel - for yourself a people until perpetuity and you O Yahweh you became for them God.

Indeed, You appoint Your people Israel to Yourself for a people for all time, and You, O YHWH, have been to them for God.

23 And now O Yahweh the word which you have spoken on servant your and on house his let it be established until perpetuity and do just as you have spoken.

And now, O YHWH, let the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, be steadfast for all time, and do as You have spoken;

24 And it may be established so it may be great name your until perpetuity saying Yahweh of hosts [is] [the] God of Israel God to Israel and [the] house of David servant your [is] established before you.

and let it be steadfast, and Your Name is great for all time, saying, YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, [is] God to Israel, and the house of Your servant David is established before You;

25 For - you O God my you have uncovered [the] ear of servant your to build for him a house there-fore he has found servant your to pray before you.

for You, O my God, have uncovered the ear of Your servant—to build a house for him, therefore Your servant has found [desire] to pray before You.

26 And now O Yahweh you he [are] God and you have spoken on servant your the good thing this.

And now, YHWH, You [are] God Himself, and You speak this goodness concerning Your servant;

27 And now you have determined to bless [the] house of servant your to be for ever before you for you O Yahweh you have blessed and [it is] blessed for ever.

and now, You have been pleased to bless the house of Your servant, to be before You for all time; for You, O YHWH, have blessed, and it is blessed for all time.”
