< 2 Samuel 7 >
1 And it was that he dwelt the king in house his and Yahweh he had given rest to him from round about from all enemies his.
2 And he said the king to Nathan the prophet see please I [am] dwelling in a house of cedar and [the] ark of God [is] dwelling in [the] midst of the tent curtain.
3 And he said Nathan to the king all that [is] in heart your go do for Yahweh [is] with you.
4 And it was in the night that and it came [the] word of Yahweh to Nathan saying.
5 Go and you will say to servant my to David thus he says Yahweh ¿ you will you build for me a house to dwell in I.
6 For not I have dwelt in a house from [the] day brought up I [the] people of Israel from Egypt and until the day this and I have been going about in a tent and in a tabernacle.
7 In every where I went about among all [the] people of Israel ¿ a word did I speak with one of [the] tribes of Israel whom I commanded to shepherd people my Israel saying why? not have you built for me a house of cedars.
8 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 over Israel.
9 And I have been 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 great like [the] name of the great [people] who [are] on the earth.
10 And I will appoint a place for people my for Israel and I will plant it and it will dwell in it and not it will be agitated again and not they will repeat sons of injustice to afflict it just as at the former [time].
11 And from the day when I appointed judges over people my Israel and I will give rest to you from all enemies your and he tells to you Yahweh that a house he will make for you Yahweh.
12 If - they will be completed days your and you will lie down with ancestors your and I will raise up offspring your after you who he will come out from inward parts your and I will establish kingdom his.
13 He he will build a house for name my and I will establish [the] throne of kingdom his until perpetuity.
14 I I will become of him a father and he he will become of me a son who when does wrong he and I will reprove him with a rod of men and with wounds of children of humankind.
15 And covenant loyalty my not it will depart from him just as I removed [it] from with Saul whom I removed from to before you.
16 And it will be established house your and kingdom your until perpetuity before you throne your it will be established until perpetuity.
17 According to all the words these and according to all the vision this so he spoke Nathan to David.
18 And he went the king David and he sat before Yahweh and he said who? [am] I O Lord Yahweh and who? [is] house my that you have brought me to here.
19 And it was small yet this [thing] in view your O Lord Yahweh and you have spoken also concerning [the] house of servant your from distant [time] and this [is] [the] manner of humankind O Lord Yahweh.
20 And what? will he increase David again to speak to you and you you know servant your O Lord Yahweh.
