II Samuel 7
1 Apaman a nagnaed ti ari iti balayna, ken pinaginana isuna ni Yahweh manipud kadagiti amin a nakapalawlaw a kabusorna,
Now when the king was living in his house, and the Lord had given him rest from war on every side;
2 kinuna ti ari kenni Natan a profeta, “Kitaem, agnanaedak iti balay a sedro, ngem agtaltalinaed ti Lakasa ti Tulag ti Dios iti tengnga ti tolda.”
The king said to Nathan the prophet, See now, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God is housed inside the curtains of a tent.
3 Ket kinuna ni Natan iti ari, “Mapanka, aramidem ti adda dita pusom, ta adda ni Yahweh kenka.”
And Nathan said to the king, Go and do whatever is in your heart; for the Lord is with you.
4 Ngem iti dayta met la a rabii immay ti sao ni Yahweh kenni Natan ket kinunana,
Now that night the word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying,
5 “Mapanka ket ibagam kenni David nga adipenko, 'Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Ibangonannak kadi iti balay a pagnaedak?
Go and say to my servant David, The Lord says, Are you to be the builder of a house, a living-place for me?
6 Ta saanak pay a nagnaed iti balay sipud idi aldaw nga inruarko dagiti tattao ti Israel manipud Egipto inggana kadagitoy nga aldaw; ngem ketdi, agakar-akarak iti tolda, ti tabernakulo.
For from the day when I took the children of Israel up out of Egypt till this day, I have had no house, but have gone from place to place in a tent.
7 Kadagiti amin a lugar a nagakar-akarak a kaduak dagiti amin a tattao ti Israel, adda kadi imbagak iti siasinoman kadagiti mangidadaulo kadagiti Israelita a dinutokak a mangaywan kadagiti tattaok nga Israel, nga ibagbagak, “Apay a saandak nga impatakderan iti balay a sedro?”'”
In all the places where I went with all the children of Israel, did I ever say to any of the judges of Israel, to whom I gave the care of my people Israel, Why have you not made me a house of cedar?
8 Ita ngarud, ibagam kenni David nga adipenko, “Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh a mannakabalin amin: 'Innalaka manipud iti pagpaspasturan, manipud iti panagpaspastormo iti karnero, tapno iturayam dagiti tattaok nga Israel.
Then say these words to my servant David, The Lord of armies says, I took you from the fields, from keeping the sheep, so that you might be a ruler over my people, over my people Israel:
9 Kinaduaanka sadinoman iti napanam ken pinapatayko iti sangoanam dagiti amin a kabusormo. Ken aramidek a natan-ok ti naganmo, kasla nagan dagiti natan-ok a tattao nga adda iti rabaw ti daga.
And I have been with you wherever you went, cutting off before you all those who were against you; and I will make your name great, like the name of the greatest ones of the earth.
10 Mangisaadak iti lugar a para kadagiti tattaok nga Israel ket pagtalinaedek ida sadiay, tapno makapagnaedda kadagiti bukodda a lugar ket saandanton a mariribukan. Awanton dagiti nadangkes a tattao a mangparigat kadakuada, a kas inaramidda idi,
And I will make a resting-place for my people Israel, planting them there, so that they may be living in the place which is theirs, and never again be moved; and never again will they be troubled by evil men as they were at the first,
11 ti ar-aramidenda manipud kadagidi nga aldaw a binilinko dagiti uk-ukom nga agturay kadagiti tattaok nga Israel. Ket paginanaenka manipud kadagiti amin a kabusormo. Maysa pay, Siak, ni Yahweh, ibagak kenka nga iyaramidanka iti balay.
From the time when I put judges over my people Israel; and I will give you peace from all who are against you. And the Lord says to you that he will make you the head of a line of kings.
12 Inton malpasto dagiti aldawmo ket maitiponka kadagiti ammam, pataudekto ti sumukat kenka manipud kadagiti kaputotam, maysa nga agtaud iti mismo a bagim, ket ipasdekonto ti pagarianna.
And when the time comes for you to go to rest with your fathers, I will put in your place your seed after you, the offspring of your body, and I will make his kingdom strong.
13 Mangbangunto isuna iti balay gapu iti naganko, ken pagtaginayunekto ti trono iti pagarianna.
He will be the builder of a house for my name, and I will make the seat of his authority certain for ever.
14 Agbalinnakto nga amana, ket agbalinto met isuna nga anakko. No makabasol isuna, adalakto isuna babaen iti sarukod dagiti tattao ken babaen iti panangsaplit kadagiti annak ti tattao.
I will be to him a father and he will be to me a son: if he does wrong, I will give him punishment with the rod of men and with the blows of the children of men;
15 Ngem agtalinaed kenkuana ti kinapudno ti tulagko, a kas imbabawik kenni Saul, nga inikkatko sakbay a nagarika.
But my mercy will not be taken away from him, as I took it from him who was before you.
16 Mapasingkedanto nga agtalinaed iti agnanayon ti balay ken pagariam. Agtalinaedto nga agnanayon ti tronom.'”
And your family and your kingdom will keep their place before me for ever: the seat of your authority will never be overturned.
17 Kinasarita ni Natan ni David ket imbagana kenkuana amin dagitoy a sasao, ken imbagana kenkuana ti sibubukel a sirmata.
So Nathan gave David an account of all these words and this vision.
18 Ket immuneg ni ari David ket natugaw iti sangoanan ni Yahweh; kinunana, “Siasino-ak koma, O Yahweh a Dios, ken ania koma ti pamiliak ta inyegnak iti kastoy a kasasaad?
Then David the king went in and took his seat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that you have been my guide till now?
19 Bassit daytoy a banag iti imatangmo, Apo a Yahweh. Imbagam pay ti maipanggep iti pamilia ti adipenmo a dumtengto ti naindaklan a tiempo, ken impakitam kaniak dagiti sumarsaruno a kaputotak, Apo a Yahweh!
And this was only a small thing to you, O Lord God; but your words have even been about the far-off future of your servant's family, O Lord God!
20 Siak daytoy ni David, ania pay ti maibagak kenka? Pinadayawam ti adipenmo, Apo a Yahweh.
What more may David say to you? for you have knowledge of your servant, O Lord God.
21 Para kadagiti sasaom, ken tapno matungpal ti bukodmo a panggep, inaramidmo dagiti naindaklan a banbanag ken imparangmo daytoy iti adipenmo.
Because of your word and from your heart, you have done all this great work, and let your servant see it.
22 Ngarud naindaklanka, Apo a Yahweh. Ta awan ti kas kenka, ken awanen ti Dios malaksid kenka, kas kadagiti nangnangngegmi.
Truly you are great, O Lord God: there is no one like you and no other God but you, as is clear from everything which has come to our ears.
23 Ken ania a nasion ti kasla kadagiti tattaom nga Israelita, ti maysa a nasion iti rabaw ti daga a napanam ken inispalmo, Dios, a para kenka? Inaramidmo daytoy tapno agbalinda a tattaom, a mangitag-ay iti naganmo, ken agaramid kadagiti naindaklan ken nakaskasdaaw nga ar-aramid para iti dagam. Pinapanawmo dagiti nasion ken dagiti didiosenda manipud iti sangoanan dagiti tattaom, nga inispalmo manipud idiay Egipto.
And what other nation in the earth, like your people Israel, did a god go out to take for himself, to be his people, and to make a name for himself, and to do great and strange things for them, driving out a nation and its gods from before his people?
24 Inaramidmo ti Israel a bukodmo a tattao iti agnanayon, ken sika, Yahweh ti nagbalin a Diosda.
But you took and made strong for yourself your people Israel, to be your people for ever; and you, Lord, became their God.
25 Isu nga ita, Yahweh a Dios, dagiti koma ingkarim a maipapan iti adipenmo ken iti pamiliana ket mapasamak iti agnanayon. Aramidem koma a kas iti imbagam.
And now, O Lord God, may the word which you have said about your servant and about his family, be made certain for ever, and may you do as you have said!
26 Mataginayon koma a naindaklan ti naganmo, tapno ibaganto dagiti tattao, 'Ni Yahweh a mannakabalin amin ti Dios ti Israel,' kabayatan a maibangbangon iti sangoanam ti balayko, David, toy adipenmo.
And let your name be made great for ever, and let men say, The Lord of armies is God over Israel: and let the family of David your servant be made strong before you!
27 Ta sika, Yahweh a mannakabalin amin, a Dios ti Israel, ti nangipablaak iti adipenmo nga iyaramidamto isuna iti balay. Dayta ti makagapu a siak, ti adipenmo, ket napakired nga agkararag kenka.
For you, O Lord of armies, the God of Israel, have clearly said to your servant, I will make you the head of a family of kings: and so it has come into your servant's heart to make this prayer to you.
28 Ita, Apo a Yahweh, Dioska, ken mapagtalkan dagiti sasaom, ken inkarim daytoy nasayaat a kari iti adipenmo.
And now, O Lord God, you are God and your words are true and you have said you will give your servant this good thing;
29 Ita ngarud, maay-ayonaka koma daytoy a mangbendision iti balay ti adipenmo, tapno agtultuloy daytoy iti agnanayon iti sangoanam. Ta sika, Apo a Yahweh ti nangibaga kadagitoy a banbanag, ken babaen iti panangbendisionmo agnanayunto a maparparaburan ti balay ti adipenmo.”
So may it be your pleasure to give your blessing to the family of your servant, so that it may go on for ever before you: (for you, O Lord God, have said it, ) and may your blessing be on your servant's family line for ever!
