< Kronika 1 17 >
1 Esi David ɖi ɖe eme le eƒe fiasã la me la, egblɔ na Nyagblɔɖila Natan be, “Kpɔ ɖa! Mele xɔ siwo me wofa sedatiwo ɖo la me, ke Yehowa ƒe nubablaɖaka la ya le agbadɔ te.”
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.
2 Natan ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Wɔ nu si nèɖo ɖe ta me be yeawɔ elabena Mawu li kpli wò.”
And he said Nathan to David all that [is] in heart your do for God [is] with you.
3 Ke Mawu gblɔ na Natan le zã ma me be,
And it was in the night that and it came [the] word of God to Nathan saying.
4 “Yi, nàgblɔ na nye dɔla, David be, ‘Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye si: Menye wòe atu xɔ nam manɔ eme o.
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.
5 Tso esime meɖe Israel tso Egipte la, agbadɔwo ko me menɔna, meʋu tso agbadɔ ɖeka me yi bubu me va se ɖe egbe.
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.
6 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?”’
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.
7 “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;
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.
8 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.
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.
9 Gawu la, mana teƒe nye dukɔ, Israel, mali ke 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 me ene
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].
10 alo abe ale si wowɔ tso esime meɖo ʋɔnudrɔ̃lawo ɖe nye dukɔ, Israel dzi ene o. Mabɔbɔ wò futɔwo ɖe anyi. Mele gbeƒã ɖem na wò be, Yehowa ŋutɔ atso aƒe na wò.
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.
11 “‘Ne wò ɣeyiɣi de le anyigba sia dzi eye nèku la, matsɔ viwòwo dometɔ ɖeka aɖo wò fiazikpui la dzi eye mana eƒe fiaɖuƒe nakpɔ ŋusẽ.
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.
12 Eyae anye ame si atu gbedoxɔ nam eye mana eƒe dzidzimeviwo naɖu fia tegbetegbe.
He he will build for me a house and I will establish throne his until perpetuity.
13 Manye fofoa eye eya anye vinye. Nyemaɖe nye amenuveve kple lɔ̃lɔ ɖa le edzi abe ame si ɖu fia do ŋgɔ nɛ ene o.
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.
14 Matsɔe aɖo nye aƒe kple nye fiaɖuƒe nu tegbetegbe ale eƒe dzidzimeviwo aɖu fia ɣeawo katã ɣi.’”
And I will appoint him in house my and in kingdom my until perpetuity and throne his it will be established until perpetuity.
15 Ale Natan gblɔ nya sia nya si Yehowa gblɔ la na David.
According to all the words these and according to all the vision this so he spoke Nathan to David.
16 Ale Fia David ɖanɔ anyi ɖe Yehowa ŋkume eye wòdo gbe ɖa be, “Oo, Yehowa Mawu, ame kae menye eye nu kae nye nye ƒome be nètsɔ nu siawo katã nam?
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.
17 Oo Mawu, abe esiawo ɖe womesɔ gbɔ le wò ŋkume o ene la, ègaƒo nu tso nu si wò dɔla ƒe aƒe anye le etsɔ si gbɔna la ŋuti. Oo Yehowa Mawu, èle kpɔyem abe nye koe nye ame si de ŋgɔ wu le amewo katã dome ene.
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.
18 “Nya kae David agagblɔ na wò le bubu si nède wò dɔla ŋu ŋuti? Elabena ènya wò dɔla,
What? will he add again David to you for honor servant your and you servant your you know.
19 Oo Yehowa. Le wò dɔla ta kple le wò lɔlɔ̃nu me, èwɔ nu gã sia eye nèna wonya wò ŋugbedodo gã siawo katã.
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.
20 “Oo Yehowa, ame aɖeke mele abe wò ene o eye mawu aɖeke meli o negbe wò ko abe ale si míesee kple míawo ŋutɔ ƒe towo ene.
O Yahweh there not [is] like you and there not [is] a God except you in all that we have heard with ears our.
21 Eye 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 le wò dukɔ si nèɖe tso Egipte la ŋgɔ.
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.
22 Èwɔ Israel, wò dukɔ, wònye tɔwò tegbetegbe eye wò, Oo Yehowa, nèzu woƒe Mawu.
And you made people your Israel - for yourself a people until perpetuity and you O Yahweh you became for them God.
23 “Azɔ la, Oo Yehowa, na be wò ŋugbe si nèdo ɖe wò dɔla kple eƒe aƒe ŋu la nali ke tegbetegbe. Wɔ abe ale si nèdo ŋugbee ene,
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.
24 ale be wòali ke eye wò ŋkɔ anye gã tegbee. Ekema amewo agblɔ be, ‘Yehowa Ŋusẽkatãtɔ, Mawu si le Israel dzi ɖum la, eyae nye Israel ƒe Mawu!’ Eye wò dɔla, David ƒe aƒe ali ke le ŋkuwòme.
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.
25 “Wò, nye Mawu, èɖee fia wò dɔla be yeatu xɔ nɛ eya ta dzideƒo le wò dɔla si be wòado gbe ɖa na wò.
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.
26 Oo Yehowa, ènye Mawu vavã! Ètsɔ nu nyui siawo do ŋugbee na wò dɔla.
And now O Yahweh you he [are] God and you have spoken on servant your the good thing this.
27 Azɔ la, edze ŋuwò be nàyra wò dɔla ƒe aƒe be wòayi edzi anɔ wò ŋkume tegbee elabena, Oo Yehowa, wòe yrae eya ta yayra anɔ edzi tegbetegbe.”
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.
