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!
And it comes to pass as David sat in his house, that David says to Nathan the prophet, “Behold, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, and the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH [is] under curtains”;
2 Ary hoy Natana tamin’ i Davida: Ataovy izay rehetra ao am-ponao, fa Andriamanitra no momba anao.
and Nathan says to David, “All that [is] in your heart do, for God [is] with you.”
3 Nefa tamin’ ny alin’ iny ihany dia tonga tamin’ i Natana ny tenin’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe:
And it comes to pass on that night that a word of God is to Nathan, saying,
4 Andeha, lazao amin’ i Davida mpanompoko hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Tsy ianao no hanao trano hitoerako;
“Go, and you have said to My servant David, Thus said YHWH: You do not build for Me the 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 have not dwelt in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, and I am [going] from tent to tent, and from the Dwelling Place.
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?
Wherever I have walked up and down among all Israel, have I spoken a word with one of [the] judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed My people, saying, Why have you not built a house of cedars for Me?
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.
And now, thus you say to My servant, to David, Thus said YHWH of Hosts: I have taken you from the habitation, from after the sheep, to be leader over 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 am with you wherever you have walked, and I cut off all your enemies from your presence, and have made a name for you like the name of the great ones who [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
And I have prepared a place for My people Israel, and planted it, and it has dwelt in its place, and is not troubled anymore, and the sons of perverseness do not add to wear it out as at first,
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.
indeed, even from the days that I appointed judges over My people Israel. And I have humbled all your enemies, and I declare to you that YHWH builds a house for you.
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 it has come to pass, when your days have been fulfilled to go with your fathers, that I have raised up your seed after you, who is of your sons, and I have established his kingdom;
12 dia io no hanao trano ho Ahy, ary Izaho kosa hampitoetra ny seza fiandrianany ho mandrakizay.
he builds a house for Me, and I have established his throne for all time;
13 Izaho ho rainy, ary izy ho zanako; ary tsy hanaisotra ny famindram-poko aminy Aho, tahaka ny nanesorako izany tamin’ ilay nodiasanao;
I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son, and I do not turn aside My kindness from him as I turned it aside from him who was before you,
14 fa hampitoeriko ao an-tranoko sy ao amin’ ny fanjakako mandrakizay izy; ary hampitoerina mandrakizay ny seza fiandrianany.
and I have established him in My house, and in My kingdom for all time, and his throne is established for all time.”
15 Araka izany teny rehetra izany sy araka izao fahitana izao no nolazain’ i Natana tamin’ i Davida.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.
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 David the king comes in and sits before YHWH, and says, “Who [am] I, O YHWH God, and what [is] my house, that You have brought me here?
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.
And this is small in Your eyes, O God, and You speak concerning the house of Your servant far off, and have seen me as a type of the man who is on high, O YHWH God!
18 Inona intsony no holazain’ i Davida aminao ny amin’ ny voninahitra omena ny mpanomponao? fa Hianao no mahalala ny mpanomponao.
What more does David add to You for the honor of Your servant; and You have known Your servant.
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 YHWH, for Your servant’s sake, and according to Your own heart You have done all this greatness, to make known all these great things.
20 Jehovah ô, tsy misy tahaka Anao, ary tsy misy Andriamanitra afa-tsy Hianao, araka izay rehetra ren’ ny sofinay.
O YHWH, there is none like You, and there is no god except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
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?
And who [is] as Your people Israel, one nation in the earth whom God has gone to ransom to Himself for a people, to make a great and fearful name for Yourself, to cast out nations from the presence of Your people whom You have ransomed out of Egypt?
22 Fa ny Isiraely olonao nofidinao ho olonao mandrakizay, ary Hianao, Jehovah ô, no efa tonga Andriamaniny.
Indeed, You appoint Your people Israel to Yourself for a people for all time, and You, O YHWH, have been to them for 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.
And now, O YHWH, let the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant, and concerning his house, be steadfast for all time, and do as You have spoken;
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 it be steadfast, and Your Name is great for all time, saying, YHWH of Hosts, God of Israel, [is] God to Israel, and the house of Your servant David is established before You;
25 Fa Hianao, Andriamanitro ô, efa nanambara tamin’ ny mpanomponao fa homenao taranaka izy; koa Izany no nampahasahy ny mpanomponao hivavaka eto anatrehanao.
for You, O my God, have uncovered the ear of Your servant—to build a house for him, therefore Your servant has found [desire] to pray before You.
26 Ary noho izany, Jehovah ô, satria Hianao no Andriamanitra, ary Hianao efa nilaza izany zava-tsoa izany ny amin’ ny mpanomponao,
And now, YHWH, You [are] God Himself, and You speak this goodness concerning Your servant;
27 dia ho sitrakao ny hitahy ny taranaky ny mpanomponao haharitra mandrakizay eo anatrehanao; fa izay tahinao, Jehovah ô, dia voatahy mandrakizay.
and now, You have been pleased to bless the house of Your servant, to be before You for all time; for You, O YHWH, have blessed, and it is blessed for all time.”
