2 Samuel 7
1 It happened that after the king had settled in his house, and after Yahweh had given him rest from all his surrounding enemies,
Alò, li te vin rive ke pandan wa a te rete lakay li a, e SENYÈ a te ba li repo tout kote sou lènmi li yo,
2 the king said to Nathan the prophet, “Look, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God is staying in the middle of a tent.”
ke wa a te vin di a Nathan, pwofèt la: “Gade koulye a, Mwen menm rete nan yon kay ki fèt ak bwa sèd; men lach Bondye a rete anndan yon tant ki fèt ak rido.”
3 Then Nathan said to the king, “Go, do what is in your heart, for Yahweh is with you.”
Nathan te di a wa a: “Ale, fè tout sa ki nan tèt ou, paske SENYÈ a avèk ou.”
4 But that same night the word of Yahweh came to Nathan, saying,
Men nan menm nwit lan, pawòl SENYÈ a te vini a Nathan e te di:
5 “Go and tell David my servant, 'This is what Yahweh says: Will you build me a house in which to live?
“Ale e pale a sèvitè Mwen an, David: ‘Se konsa SENYÈ a pale, “Èske se ou menm ki ta dwe bati yon kay pou Mwen ta vin rete ladann?
6 For I have not lived in a house from the day that I brought up the people of Israel out of Egypt until this present day; instead, I have been moving about in a tent, a tabernacle.
Paske Mwen pa t rete nan yon kay depi jou ke M te mennen fè sòti fis Israël yo an Égypte, jis rive jodi a. Men Mwen te konn deplase patou nan yon tant, menm yon tabènak.
7 In all places where I have moved among all the people of Israel, did I ever say anything to any of Israel's leaders whom I appointed to shepherd my people Israel, saying, “Why have you not built me a house of cedar?”'”
Nenpòt kote ke M te ale avèk tout fis Israël yo, èske M te pale yon sèl pawòl avèk youn nan tribi a Israël yo, ke M te kòmande pou fè bèje a pèp Mwen an, Israël, pou di: ‘Poukisa ou pa t bati pou Mwen yon kay ki fèt an sèd?’
8 Now then, tell my servant David, “This is what Yahweh of hosts says: 'I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, so that you would be ruler over my people Israel.
Alò pou sa, konsa ou va di a sèvitè Mwen an, David: ‘Konsa pale SENYÈ dèzame yo; Mwen te pran ou soti nan patiraj la, soti nan swiv mouton, pou devni yon chèf sou pèp Mwen an, Israël.
9 I have been with you wherever you went. I have cut off all your enemies from before you. Now I will make your name great, like the names of the great ones of the earth.
Mwen te toujou avèk ou nenpòt kote ou te ale, e Mwen te retire lènmi ou yo soti devan ou. Konsa, Mwen va fè de ou yon gwo non, tankou non a gwo moun ki sou latè yo.
10 I will appoint a place for my people Israel and will plant them there, so that they may live in their own place and be troubled no more. No longer will wicked people oppress them, as they did before,
Mwen va, osi, etabli yon plas pou pèp Mwen an, Israël. Mwen va plante yo, pou yo kab viv nan pwòp plas yo e pou yo pa vin deranje ankò, ni pou mechan pa aflije yo ankò tankou lontan,
11 as they were doing from the days that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. Now I will give you rest from all your enemies. Moreover, I, Yahweh declare to you that I will make you a house.
menm soti nan jou ke M te kòmande jij yo pou vin sou pèp Mwen an, Israël. Epi Mwen va ba ou repo sou tout lènmi ou yo. SENYÈ a va osi deklare a ou menm ke SENYÈ a va fè yon kay pou ou.
12 When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up a descendant after you, one who will come out from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.
Lè jou ou yo fin pase e ou kouche avèk zansèt ou yo, Mwen va fè vin leve desandan apre ou, ki va vin sòti nan ou menm e Mwen va etabli wayòm li.
13 He will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
Li va bati yon kay pou non Mwen e Mwen va etabli twòn wayòm li a jis pou tout tan.
14 I will be a father to him, and he will be my son. When he sins, I will discipline him with the rod of men and with the whipping of the sons of men.
Mwen va yon papa a li menm e li va yon fis pou Mwen. Lè li fè inikite, Mwen va korije li avèk baton lòm nan, ak kout fwèt a fis a lòm yo.
15 But my covenant faithfulness will not leave him, as I took it from Saul, whom I removed from before you.
Men mizerikòd Mwen p ap sòti sou li jan Mwen te retire li sou Saül, ke Mwen te fè vin retire devan ou an.
16 Your house and kingdom will be confirmed forever before you. Your throne will be established forever.'”
Lakay ou ak wayòm ou va dire devan Mwen pou tout tan. Twòn ou an va etabli pou tout tan.”’”
17 Nathan spoke to David and reported to him all these words, and he told him about the entire vision.
An akò avèk tout pawòl sila yo, tout vizyon sila yo, Nathan te pale avèk David.
18 Then David the king went in and sat before Yahweh and said, “Who am I, Yahweh God, and what is my family that you have brought me to this point?
Epi David, wa a, te antre chita devan SENYÈ a. Li te di: “Se kilès mwen ye, O Mèt BONDYE e se kisa lakay mwen ye, pou Ou te mennen mwen jis rive isit la?
19 Now this was a small thing in your sight, Lord Yahweh. You have even spoken about your servant's family for a great while to come, and have shown me future generations, Lord Yahweh!
Epi anplis, sa te yon ti bagay nan zye Ou, O Mèt BONDYE, paske Ou te pale osi pa lakay sèvitè Ou a, de avni byen lwen an. Epi sa se koutim a lòm, O Mèt BONDYE
20 What more can I, David, say to you? You have known your servant, Lord Yahweh.
Ankò, ki bagay anplis David kab di Ou? Paske Ou konnen sèvitè Ou a, O Mèt, BONDYE!
21 For your word's sake, and to fulfill your own purpose, you have done this great thing and revealed it to your servant.
Pou koz a pawòl Ou e selon pwòp kè Ou, Ou te fè tout gwo bagay sila yo pou fè sèvitè Ou konnen.
22 Therefore you are great, Lord Yahweh, for there is no one like you, and there is no God besides you, as we have heard with our own ears.
Pou rezon sa a, Ou gran, O Mèt BONDYE; paske nanpwen lòt tankou Ou menm e nanpwen lòt dye sof ke Ou menm, selon tout sa ke nou te tande avèk pwòp zòrèy nou.
23 What nation is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom you, God, went and rescued for yourself? You did this so that they would become a people for yourself, to make a name for yourself, and to do great and fearful deeds for your land. You drove out nations and their gods from before your people, whom you rescued from Egypt.
Epi ki lòt nasyon sou latè ki tankou pèp Ou a, Israël, ke Bondye te ale peye ranson pou Li menm kòm yon pèp, e pou fè yon non pou Li menm; pou fè yon gran bagay pou Ou ak bagay mèvèy pou peyi Ou a, devan pèp ke Ou te peye ranson pou kont Ou sòti an Égypte la, nan mitan nasyon yo, avèk dye pa yo.
24 You established Israel as your own people forever, and you, Yahweh, became their God.
Paske Ou te etabli pou kont Ou, pèp Ou a, Israël kòm pèp Ou pou tout tan, e Ou menm, O SENYÈ a te devni Bondye pa yo.
25 So now, Yahweh God, may the promise that you made concerning your servant and his family be established forever. Do as you have spoken.
“Pou sa, koulye a, O SENYÈ Bondye, pawòl ke Ou te pale konsènan sèvitè Ou avèk lakay li a, konfime nèt e fè jan Ou te pale a.
26 May your name be forever great, so the people will say, 'Yahweh of hosts is the God of Israel,' while the house of me, David, your servant is established before you.
Kite non Ou kapab vin resevwa glwa jis pou tout tan, pou di: ‘SENYÈ dèzame a se Bondye sou Israël la; epi pou lakay a sèvitè Ou a kapab vin etabli devan Ou.’
27 For you, Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. That is why I, your servant, have found courage to pray to you.
Paske Ou menm, O SENYÈ, Bondye a Israël la, te fè yon revelasyon a sèvitè Ou a e te di: ‘Mwen va bati yon kay pou ou’. Pou sa, sèvitè Ou a te jwenn kouraj pou fè priyè sila a, a Ou menm.
28 Now, Lord Yahweh, you are God, and your words are trustworthy, and you have made this good promise to your servant.
“Alò, O Senyè BONDYE, Ou se Bondye. Pawòl Ou se verite e Ou te pwomèt bon bagay sila a a sèvitè pa Ou a.
29 Now then, let it please you to bless the house of your servant, so that it may continue forever before you. For you, Lord Yahweh, have said these things, and with your blessing your servant's house will be blessed forever.”
Alò, pou sa, pou li kapab fè Ou plezi pou beni lakay sèvitè pa Ou a, pou li kapab kontinye pou tout tan devan Ou. Paske Ou menm, O Senyè BONDYE, te pale; epi avèk benediksyon pa Ou, pou lakay sèvitè Ou a kapab beni pou tout tan.”
