1 Tantara 17
1 Ary Davida, raha nipetraka tao an-tranony, dia nanao tamin’ i Natana mpaminany hoe: Akory izato izaho mitoetra amin’ ny trano sedera, nefa ny fiaran’ ny neken’ i Jehovah kosa mitoetra ao anaty lay!
Nowe afterward when Dauid dwelt in his house, he saide to Nathan the Prophet, Beholde, I dwell in an house of cedar trees, but the Arke of the Lordes couenant remaineth vnder curtaines.
2 Ary hoy Natana tamin’ i Davida: Ataovy izay rehetra ao am-ponao, fa Andriamanitra no momba anao.
Then Nathan said to Dauid, Do all that is in thine heart: for God is with thee.
3 Nefa tamin’ ny alin’ iny ihany dia tonga tamin’ i Natana ny tenin’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe:
And the same night euen the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
4 Andeha, lazao amin’ i Davida mpanompoko hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Tsy ianao no hanao trano hitoerako;
Goe, and tell Dauid my seruant, Thus saith the Lord, Thou shalt not buylde me an house to dwell in:
5 fa tsy mbola nitoetra an-trano Aho hatramin’ ny nitondrako ny Isiraely niakatra ka mandraka androany, fa nifindrafindra toby sy nifindrafindra toerana.
For I haue dwelt in no house, since the day that I brought out the childre of Israel vnto this daye, but I haue bene from tent to tent, and from habitation to habitation.
6 Ary tamin’ izay rehetra nifindrafindrako niaraka tamin’ ny Isiraely moa nisy nitenenako akory va ny mpitsaran’ ny Isiraely, izay notendreko ho mpiandry ny oloko, ka nanaovako hoe: Nahoana no tsy nanao trano sedera ho Ahy ianareo?
Wheresoeuer I haue walked with all Israel spake I one word to any of the iudges of Israel (whome I commanded to feede my people) saying, Why haue ye not built mee an house of cedar trees?
7 Koa lazao amin’ i Davida mpanompoko hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro: Izaho no naka anao tany an-tsaha, dia avy tamin’ ny niandrasanao ondry, mba ho mpanapaka ny Isiraely oloko.
Nowe therefore thus shalt thou say vnto my seruant Dauid, Thus saith the Lord of hostes, I tooke thee from the sheepecoat and from following the sheepe, that thou shouldest bee a prince ouer my people Israel.
8 Ary nomba anao tamin’ izay rehetra nalehanao Aho, ka naringako tsy ho eo anoloanao ny fahavalonao rehetra, ary homeko anarana tahaka ny anaran’ izay lehibe ambonin’ ny tany ianao.
And I haue bene with thee whithersoeuer thou hast walked, and haue destroyed all thine enemies out of thy sight, and haue made thee a name, like the name of the great men that are in the earth.
9 Ary hifidy tany ho an’ ny Isiraely oloko Aho sady hamponina azy, ka dia handry fahizay amin’ ny fonenany izy ka tsy hanana ahiahy intsony, ary ny zanaky ny faharatsiana tsy hampahory azy intsony tahaka ny tany aloha
(Also I will appoynt a place for my people Israel, and will plant it, that they may dwell in their place, and moue no more: neither shall the wicked people vexe them any more, as at the beginning,
10 sy tahaka ny hatramin’ ny andro nanendreko mpitsara ho mpifehy ny Isiraely oloko. Ary haetriko avokoa ny fahavalonao rehetra. Ary ambarako aminao koa fa Jehovah hanome taranaka anao.
And since the time that I commanded iudges ouer my people Israel) And I wil subdue all thine enemies: therefore I say vnto thee, that the Lord wil buylde thee an house.
11 Ary rehefa tapitra ny andronao, ka lasa any amin’ ny razanao ianao, dia hatsangako ny zanakao anankiray mandimby anao, izay isan’ ny terakao; ary hampitoeriko ny fanjakany;
And when thy dayes shalbe fulfilled to go with thy fathers, then will I rayse vp thy seede after thee, which shalbe of thy sonnes, and will stablish his kingdome.
12 dia io no hanao trano ho Ahy, ary Izaho kosa hampitoetra ny seza fiandrianany ho mandrakizay.
He shall builde me an house, and I will stablish his throne for euer.
13 Izaho ho rainy, ary izy ho zanako; ary tsy hanaisotra ny famindram-poko aminy Aho, tahaka ny nanesorako izany tamin’ ilay nodiasanao;
I wil be his father, and he shalbe my sonne, aud I will not take my mercie away from him, as I tooke it from him that was before thee.
14 fa hampitoeriko ao an-tranoko sy ao amin’ ny fanjakako mandrakizay izy; ary hampitoerina mandrakizay ny seza fiandrianany.
But I wil establish him in mine house, and in my kingdome for euer, and his throne shalbe stablished for euer,
15 Araka izany teny rehetra izany sy araka izao fahitana izao no nolazain’ i Natana tamin’ i Davida.
According to all these wordes, and according to al this vision. So Nathan spake to Dauid.
16 Ary Davida mpanjaka niditra ka nipetraka teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, dia nanao hoe: Zinona moa aho, Jehovah Andriamanitra ô? Ary zinona moa ny mpianakaviko, no nentinao ambaraka ankehitriny aho?
And Dauid the King went in and sate before the Lord and said, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
17 Ary mbola nataonao ho zavatra kely ihany aza izany, Andriamanitra ô; fa, indro, efa voalazanao koa ny amin’ ny taranaky ny mpanomponao hatramin’ ny mbola any aoriana lavitra aza, ary nitsinjo ahy araka ny fanaon’ ny olona Hianao, Jehovah Andriamanitra ô, ka nanandratra ahy.
Yet thou esteeming this a small thing, O God, hast also spoken concerning the house of thy seruaut for a great while, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of hie degree, O Lord God.
18 Inona intsony no holazain’ i Davida aminao ny amin’ ny voninahitra omena ny mpanomponao? fa Hianao no mahalala ny mpanomponao.
What can Dauid desire more of thee for the honour of thy seruant? for thou knowest thy seruant.
19 Jehovah ô, noho ny amin’ ny mpanomponao sy araka ny sitraponao no nanaovanao io zavatra lehibe io, mba hampiharihariana ireo zavatra lehibe rehetra ireo.
O Lord, for thy seruantes sake, euen according to thine heart hast thou done all this great thing to declare all magnificence.
20 Jehovah ô, tsy misy tahaka Anao, ary tsy misy Andriamanitra afa-tsy Hianao, araka izay rehetra ren’ ny sofinay.
Lord, there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we haue heard with our eares.
21 Ary aiza moa no misy firenena etỳ an-tany tahaka ny Isiraely olonao, izay nalehan’ Andriamanitra havotana ho olony, hanaovanao anarana lehibe sy mahatahotra ho Anao, dia tamin’ ny nandroahanao firenena tsy ho eo anoloan’ ny olonao, izay navotanao avy tany Egypta?
Moreouer what one nation in the earth is like thy people Israel, whose God went to redeeme them to be his people, and to make thy selfe a Name, and to doe great and terrible things by casting out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast deliuered out of Egypt?
22 Fa ny Isiraely olonao nofidinao ho olonao mandrakizay, ary Hianao, Jehovah ô, no efa tonga Andriamaniny.
For thou hast ordeined thy people Israel to be thine owne people for euer, and thou Lord art become their God.
23 Ary ankehitriny, Jehovah ô, ilay teny nolazainao ny amin’ ny mpanomponao sy ny taranany dia ampitoero ho mandrakizay, ary ataovy araka izay nolazainao.
Therefore nowe Lord, let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruant and concerning his house, be confirmed for euer, and doe as thou hast sayd,
24 Eny, aoka hampitoerina izany, ary aoka hohalehibiazina mandrakizay ny anaranao ka hatao hoe: Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, no Andriamanitry ny Isiraely; ka dia hampitoerina eo anatrehanao ny taranak’ i Davida mpanomponao.
And let thy name be stable and magnified for euer, that it may be sayd, The Lord of hostes, God of Israel, is the God of Israel, and let the house of Dauid thy seruant bee stablished before thee.
25 Fa Hianao, Andriamanitro ô, efa nanambara tamin’ ny mpanomponao fa homenao taranaka izy; koa Izany no nampahasahy ny mpanomponao hivavaka eto anatrehanao.
For thou, O my God, hast reueiled vnto the eare of thy seruant, that thou wilt builde him an house: therefore thy seruant hath bene bolde to pray before thee.
26 Ary noho izany, Jehovah ô, satria Hianao no Andriamanitra, ary Hianao efa nilaza izany zava-tsoa izany ny amin’ ny mpanomponao,
Therefore nowe Lord (for thou art God, and hast spoken this goodnesse vnto thy seruant)
27 dia ho sitrakao ny hitahy ny taranaky ny mpanomponao haharitra mandrakizay eo anatrehanao; fa izay tahinao, Jehovah ô, dia voatahy mandrakizay.
Now therfore, it hath pleased thee to blesse the house of thy seruant, that it may bee before thee for euer: for thou, O Lord, hast blessed it, and it shalbe blessed for euer.
