Otra Samuela 7
1 Un notikās, kad ķēniņš savā namā sēdēja un Tas Kungs viņam bija mieru devis no visiem viņa ienaidniekiem visapkārt,
After [King] David began to live in his palace, Yahweh protected him from all his enemies.
2 Tad ķēniņš sacīja uz pravieti Nātanu: redzi, es dzīvoju ciedru namā, un Tā Kunga šķirsts mīt starp telts deķiem.
One day he said to the prophet Nathan, “[It is not right that] I am here, living in a [beautiful] house made of cedar [wood], but the chest that contains God’s Ten Commandments is kept in a tent!”
3 Tad Nātans sacīja uz ķēniņu: ej un dari visu, kas tavā sirdī, jo Tas Kungs ir ar tevi.
Then Nathan said to the king, “Yahweh is helping/directing you, so do [regarding that chest] whatever you are thinking.”
4 Bet tai pašā naktī Tā Kunga vārds notika uz Nātanu un sacīja:
But that night, Yahweh said to Nathan,
5 Ej un saki Dāvidam, Manam kalpam: tā saka Tas Kungs: Vai tev būs Man namu celt, Man par mājas vietu?
“Go and tell my servant, David, that this is what [I], Yahweh, am saying to him: ‘You are not the one [RHQ] who should build a temple for me to live in.
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.
I have not lived in any building from the day that I brought the Israeli people up from Egypt until now. Instead, I have been living in a tent, moving from one place to another [when the Israelis] moved to other places.
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?
Wherever I went with all the Israelis [as they traveled], I never said [RHQ] to any of their leaders whom I appointed to lead them, “Why have you not built me a temple made of cedar [wood]?”’
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.
So this is what you should say to my servant David: ‘The Almighty Commander of the armies of angels says that he took you from a pasture where you were taking care of sheep, [and appointed you] to become the ruler of my Israeli people.
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.
I have (been with/helped) you wherever you have gone. I have gotten rid of all your enemies as you advanced. I will enable you to become very famous, as well-known as the names of all the greatest men [who have ever lived] on 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
Formerly, during the time that I appointed leaders for my Israeli people, many violent groups oppressed the Israelis. But this will not happen any more. I have chosen a place where my Israeli people can live [peacefully] and no one will disturb them any more. I will give them rest from [being attacked by] their enemies. And I will defeat all your enemies. I declare to you that I, Yahweh, will enable your descendants to rule after you [die].
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.
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.
When your life ends [EUP] and you go to be with your ancestors, I will appoint one of your sons to be king, and I will enable his kingdom to (be strong/resist all their enemies).
13 Tas uztaisīs namu Manam vārdam, un Es apstiprināšu viņa valstības krēslu mūžīgi.
He is the one who will arrange for a temple to be built for me [MTY], and I will cause his [descendants] to be kings [MTY] [of Israel] forever.
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 [like] a father to him, and [it will be as though] he [is] a son to me [MET]. When he does something that is wrong, I will punish him as fathers punish their sons.
15 Bet Savu žēlastību Es no viņa neatraušu, kā Es to esmu atrāvis no Saula, ko Es esmu atmetis tavā priekšā.
But I will not stop faithfully loving him as I stopped loving Saul, whom I removed from being king before you became king.
16 Un tavs nams un tava valstība pastāvēs tavā priekšā mūžīgi: tavs goda krēsls būs stiprs mūžīgi.
Your descendants will rule the kingdom [of Israel] forever. Their rule will never end. [DOU]’”
17 Un pēc visiem šiem vārdiem un pēc visas šīs parādīšanas Nātans tā runāja uz Dāvidu.
So Nathan told David everything that Yahweh had told him.
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 went into [the Sacred Tent] and sat in the presence of Yahweh, and prayed this: “Yahweh, my God, I am not worthy [RHQ] [for you to have done all these things] for me, and my family is not worthy, either.
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 now, O Yahweh my God, in addition to everything else, you have spoken about what will happen to my descendants in the future for many generations.
20 Un ko lai nu Dāvids vēl uz Tevi runā? Jo Tu pazīsti Savu kalpu, Kungs, Dievs.
“Yahweh God, what more can I, David, say to you [for honoring me]? Although you know very well [what I am like], Yahweh my God, you have done things for me as though I was the most important man [on the earth]!
21 Sava vārda dēļ un pēc Savas sirds Tu visas šās lielās lietas esi darījis un tās Savam kalpam sludinājis.
For my sake and because it is what you wanted to do, you have done all these great things for me.
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.
“Yahweh my God, you are great. There is no one like you. Only you are God, just as we have always heard.
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 there is no other nation in the world like Israel. Israel is the only nation on the earth whose people you went out to rescue [RHQ]. By the great and awesome things that you did, you have become famous/well-known throughout the world. As your people advanced [through this land], you expelled other people-groups [who were here in Canaan], who worshiped other gods.
24 Un Tu Savus Israēla ļaudis Sev esi apstiprinājis par Saviem ļaudīm mūžīgi, un Tu, Kungs, tiem esi palicis par Dievu.
And you caused us Israeli people to be your people forever, and you, Yahweh, have become our 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, Yahweh my God, [I pray that you will] cause the things that you promised to me about my descendants to be fulfilled forever, and [that you will] do the things that you said [that you would do].
26 Tad Tavs vārds taps paaugstināts mūžīgi, un sacīs: Tas Kungs Cebaot ir Dievs pār Israēli, un Tava kalpa Dāvida nams pastāvēs Tavā priekšā.
When that happens, you will become famous forever, and people will exclaim, ‘The Almighty Commander of the armies of angels is the God who rules Israel.’ And you will cause that forever there will be descendants of mine who will rule.
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.
“Yahweh Almighty, the God whom we Israeli people [worship], you have revealed to me that you will make some of my descendants kings. For that reason, I have been brave enough to pray like this to you.
28 Tad nu, Kungs, Dievs, Tu esi Dievs un Tavi vārdi ir patiesība, un Tu šo labumu uz Savu kalpu esi runājis.
So now, O Yahweh Almighty, because you are God, we can trust that you will do what you promise. You have promised these good things to me.
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 now I ask you that if it pleases you, you will bless my descendants, in order that they may continue [to rule] forever. Yahweh God, you have promised these things, and [so I know that] you will keep blessing my descendants forever.”
