Otra Samuela 7
1 Un notikās, kad ķēniņš savā namā sēdēja un Tas Kungs viņam bija mieru devis no visiem viņa ienaidniekiem visapkārt,
Now when the king was living in his house, and the Lord had given him rest from war on every side;
2 Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz pravieti Nātanu: redzi, es dzīvoju ciedru namā, un Tā Kunga šķirsts mīt starp telts deķiem.
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 Tad Nātans sacīja uz ķēniņu: ej un dari visu, kas tavā sirdī, jo Tas Kungs ir ar tevi.
And Nathan said to the king, Go and do whatever is in your heart; for the Lord is with you.
4 Bet tai pašā naktī Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Nātanu un sacīja:
Now that night the word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying,
5 Ej un saki Dāvidam, Manam kalpam: tā saka Tas Kungs: Vai tev būs Man namu celt, Man par mājas vietu?
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 Jo Es namā neesmu mitis no tās dienas, kad Israēla bērnus esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes, līdz šai dienai, bet esmu staigājis teltī un dzīvoklī.
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 Visu to laiku, kad Es ar visiem Israēla bērniem esmu staigājis, vai esmu vienu vārdu runājis uz kādu no Israēla ciltīm, kam Es pavēlējis, Manus Israēla ļaudis ganīt, sacīdams: kāpēc jūs Man neuztaisiet ciedru namu?
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 Tad nu tev tā būs sacīt uz Manu kalpu Dāvidu: tā saka Tas Kungs Cebaot: Es tevi no ganības, no sīkiem lopiem esmu ņēmis, būt valdītājam pār Maniem Israēla ļaudīm.
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 Un Es ar tevi esmu bijis visur, kur esi staigājis, un esmu izdeldējis visus tavus ienaidniekus tavā priekšā un tev darījis augstu vārdu, kā lieliem kungiem vārds ir virs zemes.
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 Un Saviem Israēla ļaudīm Es esmu vietu gādājis un tos dēstījis, ka tie savā vietā dzīvo un vairs netop šaubīti, un ļauni ļaudis tos vairs nespaida, kā senāk
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 Un no tās dienas, kad Es soģus iecēlu pār Saviem Israēla ļaudīm. Un Es tev dodu mieru no visiem taviem ienaidniekiem. Un Tas Kungs tev sludina, ka Tas Kungs tev grib namu celt.
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 Kad tavs laiks būs pagājis un tu dusēsi līdz ar saviem tēviem, tad Es uzcelšu tavu dzimumu pēc tevis, kas no tavām miesām nāks, tam Es apstiprināšu viņa valstību.
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 Tas uztaisīs namu Manam vārdam, un Es apstiprināšu viņa valstības krēslu mūžīgi.
He will be the builder of a house for my name, and I will make the seat of his authority certain for ever.
14 Es viņam būšu par tēvu, un viņš Man būs par dēlu. Kad tas būs noziedzies, tad Es viņu pārmācīšu ar cilvēku rīkstēm un ar cilvēka bērnu sitieniem;
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 Bet Savu žēlastību Es no viņa neatraušu, kā Es to esmu atrāvis no Saula, ko Es esmu atmetis tavā priekšā.
But my mercy will not be taken away from him, as I took it from him who was before you.
16 Un tavs nams un tava valstība pastāvēs tavā priekšā mūžīgi: tavs goda krēsls būs stiprs mūžīgi.
And your family and your kingdom will keep their place before me for ever: the seat of your authority will never be overturned.
17 Un pēc visiem šiem vārdiem un pēc visas šīs parādīšanas Nātans tā runāja uz Dāvidu.
So Nathan gave David an account of all these words and this vision.
18 Tad ķēniņš Dāvids nāca un palika Tā Kunga priekšā un sacīja: kas es esmu Kungs, Dievs? Un kas ir mans nams, ka Tu mani līdz šejienei esi vadījis?
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 Un taču tas vēl ir maz Tavās acīs, Kungs, Dievs, bet Tu Sava kalpa namam esi runājis arī par nākošiem ilgiem laikiem, un tā pēc cilvēka vīzes, Kungs, Dievs!
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 Un ko lai nu Dāvids vēl uz Tevi runā? Jo Tu pazīsti Savu kalpu, Kungs, Dievs.
What more may David say to you? for you have knowledge of your servant, O Lord God.
21 Sava vārda dēļ un pēc Savas sirds Tu visas šās lielās lietas esi darījis un tās Savam kalpam sludinājis.
Because of your word and from your heart, you have done all this great work, and let your servant see it.
22 Tāpēc Tu esi augsts, Kungs Dievs. Jo neviena nav kā Tu, un Dieva nav kā Tu vien pēc visa, ko esam dzirdējuši savām ausīm.
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 Un kur gan kāda tauta virs zemes kā Tavi ļaudis, kā Israēls? Ko Dievs būtu gājis atpestīt Sev par ļaudīm un celt Sev vārdu un priekš viņiem darīt tādas lielas briesmīgas lietas Savai zemei, Savu ļaužu priekšā, ko Tu no Ēģiptes atpestījis, no pagāniem un viņu elkiem.
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 Un Tu Savus Israēla ļaudis Sev esi apstiprinājis par Saviem ļaudīm mūžīgi, un Tu, Kungs, tiem esi palicis par Dievu.
But you took and made strong for yourself your people Israel, to be your people for ever; and you, Lord, became their God.
25 Un nu, Kungs Dievs, to vārdu, ko Tu esi runājis par Savu kalpu un par viņa namu, piepildi to mūžīgi, un izdari, ko Tu esi runājis.
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 Tad Tavs vārds taps paaugstināts mūžīgi, un sacīs: Tas Kungs Cebaot ir Dievs pār Israēli, un Tava kalpa Dāvida nams pastāvēs Tavā priekšā.
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 Jo Tu, Kungs Cebaot, Israēla Dievs, Sava kalpa ausi esi atdarījis un sacījis: Es tev celšu namu. Tāpēc Tavs kalps iedrošinājies ar šo lūgšanu Tevi pielūgt.
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 Tad nu, Kungs, Dievs, Tu esi Dievs un Tavi vārdi ir patiesība, un Tu šo labumu uz Savu kalpu esi runājis.
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 Un tas lai nu ir Tavs prāts, svētīt Sava kalpa namu, ka tas ir mūžīgi Tavā priekšā. Jo Tu, Kungs, Dievs, to esi runājis, un ar Tavu svētību Tava kalpa nams būs svētīts mūžīgi.
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!
