< 2 Samuel 7 >

1 Forsothe it was doon, whanne the kyng Dauid hadde sete in his hows, and the Lord hadde youe reste to hym on ech side fro alle hise enemyes,
Azɔ la, esime fia la li ke ɖe eƒe fiasã me vɔ eye Yehowa na gbɔɖemee tso eƒe futɔ siwo katã ƒo xlãe ƒe asi me la,
2 he seyde to Nathan the prophete, Seest thou not, that Y dwelle in an hows of cedre, and the arke of God is put in the myddis of skynnys?
David gblɔ na Nyagblɔɖila Natan be, “Kpɔ ɖa! Nye ya mele sedatifiasã nyui sia me le esime Mawu ƒe nubablaɖaka la le agbadɔ me.”
3 And Nathan seide to the kyng, Go thou, and do al thing which is in thin herte, for the Lord is with thee.
Natan ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Wɔ nu si nèɖo be yeawɔ elabena Yehowa li kpli wò.”
4 Forsothe it was don in that niyt, and lo! the word of the Lord, seiynge to Nathan, Go thou,
Ke Yehowa gblɔ na Natan le zã ma me be,
5 and speke to my servaunt Dauid, The Lord seith these thingis, Whether thou schalt bilde to me an hows to dwelle ynne?
“Yi nàgblɔ na nye dɔla David be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: Ɖe wòle be nàtu xɔ nam manɔ emea?
6 For Y `dwellide not in an hows fro the dai in which Y ledde the sones of Israel out of the lond of Egipt til in to this dai; but Y yede in tabernacle and in tent,
Nyemenɔ xɔ aɖeke me kpɔ o, tso esime mekplɔ mi Israelviwo tso Egipte la, agbadɔ me koe nye nye nɔƒe.
7 bi alle places, to whiche Y passyde with alle the sones of Israel? Whether Y spekynge spak to oon of the lynagis of Israel, to whom Y comaundyde, that he schulde feede my puple Israel, and seide, Whi `bildidist thou not an hows of cedre to me?
Afi sia afi si meɖe zɔ kple Israelviwo yi la, ɖe megblɔ na woƒe kplɔla siwo mede se na be woakplɔ nye dukɔ la dometɔ aɖe kpɔ be, “Nu ka ŋutie mietu sedatixɔ nam o mahã?”’
8 And now thou schalt seie these thingis to my seruaunt Dauid, The Lord of oostis seith these thingis, Y took thee fro lesewis suynge flockis, that thou schuldist be duyk on my puple Israel, and Y was with thee in alle thingis,
“Azɔ la, gblɔ na nye dɔla David be, ‘Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ la le gbɔgblɔm na wò be; meɖe wò le alẽkplɔdɔ nu eye meɖo wò fiae ɖe nye dukɔ Israel dzi.
9 where euere thou yedist, and Y killide alle thin enemyes fro thi face, and Y made to thee a greet name bi the name of grete men that ben in erthe;
Menɔ kpli wò le afi sia afi si nède eye metsrɔ̃ wò futɔwo. Mana wò ŋkɔ nagade dzi wu ale si wòle fifia ale be nànye ame xɔŋkɔtɔwo dometɔ ɖeka le xexea me!
10 and Y schall sette a place to my puple Israel, and Y schal plaunte hym, and Y schal dwelle with hym, and he schal no more be troblid, and the sones of wickidnesse schulen not adde, that thei turmente hym as bifor,
Mana teƒe aɖe nye amewo, Israel. Maɖo teƒe na wo ɖe afi ma ale be aƒe nanɔ woawo ŋutɔ si eye ame aɖeke magaɖe fu na wo o. Ame vɔ̃ɖiwo magate wo ɖe anyi azɔ abe ale si wowɔ le gɔmedzedzea ene
11 fro the dai in which Y ordenede iugis on my puple Israel; and Y schal yyue reste to thee fro alle thin enemyes. And the Lord biforseith to thee, that `the Lord schal mak an hows to thee;
alo abe ale si wowɔ tso esime meɖo ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo ɖe nye dukɔ, Israel dzi ene o. Mana miavo tso miaƒe futɔwo ƒe asi me azɔ. “‘Yehowa ɖe gbeƒã na wò be, Yehowa ŋutɔ aɖo aƒe aɖe gɔme anyi na wò.
12 and whanne thi daies be fillid, and thou hast slept with thi fadris, Y schal reyse thi seed aftir thee, which schal go out of thi wombe, and Y schal make `stidfast his rewme.
Ne wò ɣeyiɣi de le anyigba sia dzi eye nèku la, matsɔ viwò si nye wò ŋutɔ wò ŋutilã kple wò ʋu, aɖo wò fiazikpui la dzi eye mana eƒe fiaɖuƒe nakpɔ ŋusẽ.
13 He schal bilde an hows to my name, and Y schal make stable the troone of his rewme til in to with outen ende;
Eyae anye ame si atu gbedoxɔ nam eye mana eƒe fiaɖuƒe nanɔ anyi ɖaa.
14 Y schal be to hym in to fadir, and he schal be to me in to a sone; and if he schal do ony thing wickidli, Y schal chastise hym in the yerde of men, and in the woundis of the sones of men.
Manye fofo nɛ eye eya hã anye vi nam. Ne ewɔ nu vɔ̃ la, mawɔ dukɔ bubuwo ŋu dɔ atsɔ ahe to nɛ,
15 Forsothe Y schal not do awey my mercy fro hym, as Y dide awei fro Saul, whom Y remouede fro my face.
ke nye lɔlɔ̃ maɖe ɖa le edzi abe ale si meɖee ɖa le Saul, ame si ɖu fia do ŋgɔ na wò la dzi ene o.
16 And thin hows schal be feithful, and thi rewme schal be til in to with outen ende bifor my face, and thi trone schal be stidfast contynueli.
Wò aƒe kple wò fiaɖuƒe anɔ anyi tegbee le ŋkunye me, eye wò fiazikpui ali ke tegbee.’”
17 By alle these wordys, and bi al this reuelacioun, so Nathan spak to Dauid.
Ale Natan gblɔ nya sia nya si Yehowa gblɔ la na David.
18 Forsothe Dauid the kyng entride, and satt bifor the Lord, and seide, Who am Y, my Lord God, and what is myn hows, that thou brouytist me hidur to?
Ale Fia David ɖanɔ anyi ɖe Yehowa ŋkume eye wòdo gbe ɖa be, “Oo, Aƒetɔ Yehowa, ame kae menye eye nu kae nye nye ƒome be nètsɔ nu siawo katã nam?
19 But also this is seyn litil in thi siyt, my Lord God; no but thou schuldist speke also of the hows of thi seruaunt in to long tyme. Forsothe this is the lawe of Adam, Lord God;
Abe esia ɖe mesɔ gbɔ le wò ŋkume o ene la, Oo Aƒetɔ Yehowa, ègaƒo nu tso nu si wò dɔla ƒe aƒe ava nye le etsɔ me la ŋuti. Oo Aƒetɔ Yehowa, alea koe nènɔna kple amewoa?
20 what therfor may Dauid adde yit, that he speke to thee? For thou, Lord God, knowist thi seruaunt; thou hast do alle these grete thingis,
“Nya kae gale David si wòagblɔ na wò? Elabena, Oo Aƒetɔ Yehowa, ènya wò dɔla.
21 for thi word, and bi thin herte, so that thou madist knowun to thi seruaunt.
Le wò nya la ta kple wò lɔlɔ̃nu me, nèwɔ nu gã sia eye nèna wò dɔla nya.
22 Herfor, Lord God, thou art magnyfied, for noon is lijk thee, ne there is no God outakun thee, in alle thingis whiche we herden with oure eeris.
“Oo Aƒetɔ Yehowa, èlolo loo! Ame aɖeke mele abe wò ene o eye mawu bubu aɖeke meli o, negbe wò, Mawu ko, abe ale si míesee kple míaƒe towo ene.
23 Sotheli what folk in erthe is as the puple of Israel, for which the Lord God yede, that he schulde ayenbie it to him in to a puple, and schulde sette to hym silf a name, and schulde do to it grete thingis, and orible on erthe, in castinge out therof the folk and `goddis therof fro the face of thi puple, which thou `ayen bouytist to thee fro Egipt?
Azɔ la, dukɔ kae le abe wò dukɔ, Israel ene, dukɔ ɖeka si le anyigba dzi, esi ƒe Mawu ɖaɖe dukɔ ma na eɖokui? Eye wòwɔ ŋkɔ na eɖokui to nukunu gãwo kple ŋɔdzinu dzɔatsuwo wɔwɔ me eye nènya dukɔwo kpe woƒe mawuwo le wò dukɔ si nèɖe tso Egipte la ŋgɔ.
24 And thou confermidist to thee thi puple Israel in to a puple euerlastynge, and thou, Lord, art maad in to God to hem.
Èɖo wò dukɔ, Israel te be woanye tɔwòwo koŋ tegbee eye wò Yehowa nèva zu woƒe Mawu.
25 Now therfor, Lord God, reise thou withouten ende the word that thou hast spoke on thi seruaunt and on his hows, and do as thou hast spoke;
“Azɔ la, Yehowa Mawu, lé ŋugbe si nèdo na wò dɔla kple eƒe aƒe la ɖe asi tegbee. Wɔ abe ale si nèdo ŋugbee ene,
26 and thy name be magnyfied til in to withouten ende, and be it seid, The Lord of oostis is God on Israel; and the hows of thi seruaunt Dauid schal be stablischid byfor the Lord;
ale be wò ŋkɔ nanye gã tegbee. Ekema amewo agblɔ be, ‘Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ enye Mawu ɖe Israel dzi!’ Ale woaɖo wò dɔla, David ƒe aƒe anyi ɖe ŋkuwòme tegbee.
27 for thou, Lord of oostis, God of Israel, hast maad reuelacioun to the eere of thi seruaunt, and seidist, Y schal bilde an hows to thee; therfor thi seruaunt foond his herte, that he schulde preie thee bi this preier.
“Oo Yehowa Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ, Israel ƒe Mawu, èɖe esia fia wò dɔla be, ‘Matu xɔ na wò.’ Eya ta dzi ɖo wò dɔla ƒo wòle gbe sia dom ɖa na wò.
28 Now therfor, Lord God, thou art veri God, and thi wordis schulen be trewe; for thou hast spoke these goodis to thi seruaunt;
Oo, Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Mawue nènye! Wò nyawo le eteƒe eye nètsɔ nu nyui siawo do ŋugbee na wò dɔla.
29 therfor bigynne thou, and blesse the hows of thi seruaunt, that it be withouten ende bifor thee; for thou, Lord God, hast spoke these thingis, and bi thi blessyng the hows of thi seruaunt schal be blessid withouten ende.
Azɔ la, nedze ŋuwò be nàyra wò dɔla ƒe aƒe be wòanɔ anyi ɖaa le ŋkuwòme, elabena wò, Oo Aƒetɔ Yehowae ƒo nu eye wò dɔla ƒe aƒe axɔ yayra to wò yayra me tegbee.”
