< II Samuela 7 >
1 A I ka wa i noho ai ke alii iloko o kona hale, a hoomaha mai la o Iehova ia ia mai o a o, mai kona poe enemi a pau;
And it comes to pass, when the king sat in his house, and YHWH has given rest to him all around, from all his enemies,
2 I aku la ke alii ia Natana ke kaula, Eia hoi au ke noho nei iloko o ka hale kedera; aka, e noho ana ka pahu o Iehova maloko o na paku.
that the king says to Nathan the prophet, “Now see, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, but the Ark of God is dwelling in the midst of the curtain.”
3 I aku la o Natana i ke alii, E hele oe e hana i ka mea a pau iloko o kou naau; no ka mea, me oe pu no o Iehova.
And Nathan says to the king, “All that [is] in your heart—go, do, for YHWH [is] with you.”
4 A ia po iho no, hiki mai la ka olelo a Iehova io Natana la, i mai la.
And it comes to pass in that night, that the word of YHWH is to Nathan, saying,
5 E hele oe e hai aku i kuu kauwa ia Davida, Eia ka Iehova e olelo aku nei, E hana anei oe i hale no'u e noho ai?
“Go, and you have said to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH: Do you build for Me a house for My dwelling in?
6 No ka mea, aole no au i noho iloko o ka hale maoli mai ka manawa mai a'u i alakai mai nei i na mamo a Iseraela mai Aigupita mai, a hiki i keia la; aka, ua hele no wau maloko o ka halelole, a me ka halelewa.
For I have not dwelt in a house even from the day of My bringing up the sons of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, and am walking up and down in a tent and in a dwelling place.
7 I ko'u hele ana a pau me na mamo a pau a Iseraela, i olelo aku anei au i kekahi ohana a Iseraela, i ka mea a'u i kauoha aku ai e hanai i ko'u poe kanaka i ka Iseraela, i ka i ana aku, Heaha ka mea e hana ole ai oukou i hale kedera no'u?
During all [the time] that I have walked up and down among all the sons of Israel, have I spoken a word with one of the tribes of Israel, which I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why have you not built a house of cedars for Me?
8 Nolaila hoi, e olelo aku oe i kuu kauwa ia Davida, Eia ka Iehova sabaota e olelo mai nei, I lawe mai no wau ia oe mai ka pahipa mai, mamuli mai hoi o ka poe hipa, i alii oe maluua o kuu poe kanaka o ka Iseraela.
And now, thus you say to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: I have taken you from the pasture, from after the flock, to be leader over My people, over Israel;
9 Owau hoi kekahi pu me oe i kou mau wahi i hele aku ai, a ua hooki iho no wau i ou poe enemi a pau mai kou maka aku, a ua hookaulana aku au i kou inoa, e like me ka inoa o ka poe nui ma ka honua.
and I am with you wherever you have gone, and I cut off all your enemies from your presence, and have made a great name for you, as the name of the great ones who [are] in the earth,
10 Na'u hoi e hoike aku i wahi no ko'u poe kanaka no ka Iseraela, a e kanu iho no au ia lakou i noho ai lakou ma ko lakou wahi iho, aole e nee hou aku lakou; aole hoi e hoino hou mai ka poe keiki na ka ino ia lakou, e like me ka manawa mamua.
and I have appointed a place for My people, for Israel, and have planted it, and it has dwelt in its place, and it is not troubled anymore, and the sons of perverseness do not add to afflict it anymore, as in the beginning,
11 A mai ka manawa mai a'u i hoonoho ai i na lunakanawai maluna o ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela, a hiki i ka hoomaha ana ia oe mai kou poe enemi ae a pau. Eia hoi ka Iehova e i mai nei ia oe, Na Iehova no e hana i hale nou.
even from the day that I appointed judges over My people Israel; and I have given rest to you from all your enemies, and YHWH has declared to you that YHWH makes a house for you.
12 Aia pau kou mau la, a moe iho oe me ou poe kupuna, e hooku ae au i kau keiki mahope ou, i ka mea e puka ana mailoko ae o kou opu, a e hookupaa hoi au i kona aupuni.
When your days are full, and you have lain with your fathers, then I have raised up your seed after you which goes out from your bowels, and have established his kingdom;
13 Nana no e hana i hale no ko'u inoa, a e hookupaa hoi au i ka nohoalii o kona aupuni a mau loa aku.
he builds a house for My Name, and I have established the throne of his kingdom for all time.
14 Owau no auanei kona makuakane, a e lilo hoi ia i keiki na'u: a i hana ino kela, na'u no e paipai aku ia ia me ka laau ma ko ke kanaka, a me ka hahau ana ma ko na keiki a na kanaka.
I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son; whom in his dealing perversely I have even reproved with a rod of men, and with strokes of the sons of Adam,
15 Aka, aole au e lawe i ko'u aloha mai ona aku la, me a'u i lawe aku ai ia mea mai o Saula aku, ka mea a'u i hoolei aku ai mai ko'u alo aku.
and My kindness does not turn aside from him, as I turned it aside from Saul, whom I turned aside from before you,
16 A e hookupaa mau loa ia aku kau ohana a me kou aupuni imua ou: e hookupaaia hoi kou nohoalii a mau loa aku.
and your house and your kingdom [are] steadfast before you for all time, your throne is established for all time.”
17 Ma keia mau olelo a pau, a ma keia hihio a pau ka Natana i olelo aku ai ia Davida.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.
18 Alaila komo aku la o Davida ke alii iloko, a noho iho la imua o Iehova, a olelo aku la, Owai la hoi wau, e ka Haku e Iehova? Heaha hoi ko'u ohana i malama mai ai oe ia'u a hiki i neia wa?
And King David comes in and sits before YHWH, and says, “Who [am] I, Lord YHWH? And what [is] my house, that You have brought me here?
19 He mea uuku hoi keia imua o kou maka, e Iehova ka Haku; aka, ua olelo mai hoi oe no ka ohana a kau kauwa a liuliu aku mahope. Ua like anei keia me ko ke kanaka, e Iehova ka Haku?
And yet this [is] little in Your eyes, Lord YHWH, and You also speak concerning the house of Your servant far off; and this [is] the law of the man, Lord YHWH.
20 Heaha ka mea hou aku e hiki ia Davida ke olelo aku ia oe? no ka mea, ua ike pono mai oe i kau kauwa nei, e Iehova ka Haku.
And what does David add more to speak to You? And You, You have known Your servant, Lord YHWH.
21 No ka pono o kau olelo, a e like me ko loko o kou naau kau i hana mai ai i keia mau mea nui a pau, i mea e ike ai kau kauwa.
Because of Your word, and according to Your heart, You have done all this greatness, to cause Your servant to know [it].
22 Nolaila, e Iehova e ke Akua, he nui oe; no ka mea, aohe mea like me oe, aohe hoi Akua e ae, o oe wale no; e like me ka mea a pau a makou i lohe ai ma ko makou pepeiao.
Therefore You have been great, YHWH God, for there is none like You, and there is no God except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
23 Owai la ka lahuikanaka ma ka honua nei e like me kou poe kanaka me ka Iseraela, ka poe a ke Akua i kii aku ai e hoola i poe kanaka nona, i mea e kaulana ai kona inoa, a e hana aku no lakou i na mea nui a weliweli no kou aina, imua o kou poe kanaka, o ka poe au i hoola ae nou mai na lahuikanaka o Aigupita, a me ko lakou mau akua mai.
And who [is] as Your people, as Israel—one nation in the earth, whom God has gone to redeem for a people for Himself, and to make for Himself a name—and to do for Yourself the greatness—even fearful things for Your land, at the presence of Your people, whom You have redeemed for Yourself out of Egypt—[among the] nations and their gods?
24 No ka mea, ua hoolilo oe nou i kou kanaka i ka Iseraela, i poe kanaka nou mahope mau loa aku; a o oe, e Iehova, ua lilo mai oe i Akua no lakou.
Indeed, You establish Your people Israel for Yourself, for a people for Yourself for all time, and You, YHWH, have been to them for God.
25 Ano hoi, e Iehova ke Akua, e hookupaa mau loa oe i ka olelo au i olelo mai ai no kau kauwa a me kana ohana, a e hana mai e like me kau olelo.
And now, YHWH God, the word which You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, establish for all time, and do as You have spoken.
26 A e hoonani mau loa ia kou inoa, i ka i ana, O Iehova sabaota, oia ke Akua maluna o ka Iseraela: a e hookupaaia hoi ka ohana a kau kauwa a Davida imua ou.
And Your Name is great for all time, saying, YHWH of Hosts [is] God over Israel, and the house of Your servant David is established before You,
27 No ka mea, ua hoike mai oe, e Iehova sabaota, ke Akua no ka Iseraela, iloko o ka pepeiao o kau kauwa, i ka i ana mai, E hana au i hale nou: nolaila, ua manao iho kau kauwa iloko o kona naau e pule aku i keia pule ia oe.
for You, YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, have uncovered the ear of Your servant, saying, I build a house for you, therefore Your servant has found his heart to pray this prayer to You.
28 Ano hoi, e Iehova ka Haku, o oe no ua Akua la, a he oiaio hoi kau mau olelo; a ua olelo mua mai oe i keia lokomaikai i kau kauwa nei:
And now, Lord YHWH, You [are] God Himself, and Your words are truth, and You speak this goodness to Your servant,
29 Nolaila hoi, e lealea mai oe, a e hoopomaikai mai i ka ohana a kau kauwa, i mau loa ia imua ou: no ka mea, ua olelo no oe, e Iehova ka Haku; a ma kau hoopomaikai ana e pomaikai ai ka ohana a kau kauwa mahope mau loa aku.
and now, begin and bless the house of Your servant, to be before You for all time, for You, Lord YHWH, have spoken, and by Your blessing the house of Your servant is blessed for all time.”
