१ इतिहास 17
1 राजा आफ्नो महलमा बसेपछि उनले नातान अगमवक्तालाई भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, म देवदारुको घरमा बस्दैछु, तर परमप्रभुको करारको सन्दूकचाहिं पालमुनि राखिएको छ ।”
Once David had settled into his palace, he spoke to the prophet Nahum. “Look,” he said, “I'm living in a cedar palace while the Ark of the Lord's Agreement is kept in a tent!”
2 तब नातानले दाऊदलाई जवाफ दिए, “जानुहोस्, आफ्नो मनमा जे छ त्यो गर्नुहोस्, किनकि परमेश्वर तपाईंसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।”
“Do what you think you should, for the God is with you,” Nathan replied.
3 तर त्यही रात परमेश्वरको यो वचन नातानकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,
But that night God told Nathan,
4 “जा र मेरो दास दाऊदलाई यसो भन्, ‘परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: तैंले मेरो लागि बस्ने घर बनाउनेछैनस् ।
“Go and talk to my servant David. Tell him, this is what the Lord says, You are not to build a house for me to live in.
5 किनकि इस्राएललाई मिश्रदेशबाट ल्याएको दिनदेखि यता आजको दिनसम्म म कहिल्यै घरमा बसेको छैनँ । बरू, विभिन्न ठाउँमा पवित्र पालसम्म म बस्दैआएको छु ।
I have not lived in a house from the time I led Israel out of Egypt until now. I have lived in tents, moving from place to place.
6 सारा इस्राएलसँग सबै ठाउँमा म सरेको बेलामा, मेरा मानिसहरूको रेखदेख गर्नलाई मैले नियुक्त गरेका इस्राएलका कुनै अगुवालाई के मैले यसो भनें, “मेरो निम्ति देवदारुको घर किन बनाएको छैनस्?”
But in all those travels with all of Israel did I ever ask any Israelite leader I'd ordered to take care of my people, ‘Why haven't you built a cedar house for me?’
7 “अब मेरो दास दाऊदलाई यसो भन्, “सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु यसो भन्नुहुन्छ: तँ मेरा मानिस इस्राएलको राजा हुनलाई मैले तँलाई खर्कमा भेडाहरू पछिपछि हिंड्नबाट बोलाएँ ।
So then, go and tell my servant David this is what the Lord Almighty says. It was me who took you from the fields, from looking after sheep, to become a leader of my people Israel.
8 तँ जहाँ गए पनि म तँसँगै छु र तेरो सामुबाट तेरा शत्रुहरूलाई हटाएको छु, अनि तेरो नाउँलाई म पृथ्वीमा भएका महान् व्यक्तिहरूझैं प्रसिद्ध तुल्याउनेछु ।
I have been with you wherever you've gone. I have struck down all your enemies right in front of you, and I will make your reputation as great as the most famous people on earth.
9 म आफ्ना मानिस इस्राएलको निम्ति एउटा ठाउँ तोक्नेछु ताकि तिनीहरू आफ्नै देशमा बसून् र फेरि कष्टमा नपरून् । दुष्ट मानिसहरूले पहिले गरेझैं फेरि तिनीहरूलाई थिचोमिचो गर्नेछैनन्,
I will choose a place for my people Israel. I will settle them there and they won't be disturbed anymore. Evil people won't persecute them as they used to,
10 जसरी मैले आफ्ना मानिस इस्राएलमाथि न्यायकर्ताहरू नियुक्त गरेको समयदेखि नै तिनीहरूले गर्दै आएका थिए । त्यसपछि तेरा सबै शत्रुहरूलाई म वशमा पार्नेछु । साथै म तँलाई भन्दछु, कि म परमप्रभुले तेरो निम्ति घर बनाउनेछु ।
from the time I placed judges in charge of my people. I will defeat all of your enemies. Also I want to make it clear that I the Lord will build a house for you.
11 जब तेरो जीवन पुरा हुनेछ, र तँ तेरा पुर्खाहरूसित मिल्न जानेछस्, तब तँपछि म तेरै सन्तानलाई खडा गर्नेछु, र तेरै एक सन्तानमध्ये एक जनाको राज्यलाई म स्थापित गर्नेछु ।
For when you come to the end of your life and join your ancestors in death, I will bring to power one of your descendants, one of your sons, and make sure his kingdom is successful.
12 उसैले मेरो लागि एउटा मन्दिर बनाउनेछ, र उसको सिंहासन सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गर्नेछु ।
He will be the one to build me a house, and I will make sure his kingdom lasts forever.
13 म उसको पिता हुनेछु र ऊ मेरो छोरो हुनेछ । तँभन्दा पहिले राज्य गर्ने शाऊलबाट मेरो आफ्नो करारको विश्वस्तता फिर्ता लिएझैं म ऊदेखि फिर्ता लिनेछैनँ ।
I will be a father to him, and he will be a son to me. I will never take away my kindness and love from him, as I did in the case of the one who ruled before you.
14 उसलाई म आफ्नो मन्दिर र मेरो राज्यमाथि सधैंको निम्ति राख्नेछु, र उसको सिंहासन सदासर्वदाको निम्ति स्थापित हुनेछ ।”
I will put him in charge of my house and my kingdom forever, and his dynasty will last forever.”
15 नातानले दाऊदसँग कुरा गरे र यी सबै वचन सुनाए, र सबै दर्शनको बारेमा उनले तिनलाई बताए ।
This is what Nathan explained to David—everything he was told in this divine revelation.
16 तब दाऊद राजा भित्र गए र परमप्रभुको सामु बसे । तिनले भने, “हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, म को हुँ अनि मेरो घराना के हो, र तपाईंले मलाई यहाँसम्म ल्याउनुभएको छ?
Then King David went and sat down in the presence of the Lord. He prayed, “Who am I, Lord God, and what is significant about my family, that you have brought me to this place?
17 किनकि हे परमेश्वर, तपाईंको दृष्टिमा यो त सानो कुरा थियो । हे परमप्रभु परमेश्वर, तपाईंले आफ्नो दासको घरानालाई भविष्यको बारेमा बोल्नुभएको छ, र मलाई भविष्यका पुस्ताहरू देखाउनुभएको छ ।
God, you talk as if this was a small thing in your eyes, and you also have spoken about the future of my house, my family dynasty. You also see me as someone very important, Lord God.
18 म दाऊदले तपाईंलाई योभन्दा बढी के नै भन्न सक्छु र? तपाईंले आफ्नो दासलाई विशेष आदर गर्नुभएको छ ।
What more can I, David, say to you for honoring me in this way? You know your servant all too well!
19 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको दासको खातिर र तपाईंको आफ्नै उद्देश्य पुरा गर्नलाई आफ्ना सबै महान् कामहरू प्रकट होऊन् भनेर नै तपाईंले यो महान् काम गर्नुभएको छ ।
Lord, you're doing all this for me, your servant, and because it's what you want—doing all these amazing things and letting people know about them.
20 हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंजस्तो अरू कोही छैन । हामीले सधैंभरि सुनेका छौं कि तपाईंबाहेक अरू कोही परमेश्वर छैन ।
Lord, there really is no-one like you; there is no other God, only you. We have never heard about anyone else.
21 किनकि तपाईंका मानिस इस्राएलजस्तै यस पृथ्वीमा कुन जाति छ र, जसलाई तपाईं परमेश्वरले महान् र भयानक कार्यहरूद्वारा आफ्नो नाउँको निम्ति आफ्ना मानिस बनाउनलाई मिश्रदेशबाट छुटकारा दिनुभयो? मिश्रदेशबाट तपाईंले छुटकारा दिनुभएका आफ्ना मानिसहरूको सामुबाट तपाईंले जातिहरूलाई धपाउनुभयो ।
Who else is as fortunate as your people Israel? Who else on earth did God go and redeem to make his own people? You gained a wonderful reputation for yourself by all the tremendous, amazing things you did in driving out other nations before your people as you redeemed them from Egypt.
22 तपाईंले इस्राएललाई सदाको निम्ति आफ्नो मानिसहरू बनाउनुभयो र तपाईं, हे परमप्रभु, तिनीहरूका परमेश्वर हुनुभएको छ ।
You made your people Israel your own forever, and you, Lord, have become their God.
23 यसैले अब हे परमप्रभु, आफ्नो दास र उसको घरानाको निम्ति तपाईंले गर्नुभएको प्रतिज्ञा सदाको लागि स्थापित होस् । तपाईंले जस्तो भन्नुभएको छ त्यस्तै गर्नुहोस् ।
So now, Lord, please ensure that what you have said about me and my house happens, and lasts forever. Please do as you have promised,
24 तपाईंको नाम सदासर्वदाको निम्ति स्थापित होस् र महान् होस्, ताकि म तपाईंको दास दाऊदको घराना तपाईंको सामु स्थापित हुँदा मानिसहरूले यसो भनून्, ‘सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु नै इस्राएलका परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ ।,’
and may your true nature be recognized and honored forever, with people declaring, ‘The Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, is Israel's God!’ May the house of your servant David continue to be there in your presence.
25 किनकि, हे मेरा परमेश्वर, तपाईंले आफ्नो दासको घर बनाउनु हुनेछ भनी उसलाई प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ । यसकारण तपाईंको दास, मैले तपाईंको सामु प्रार्थना चढाउने साहस गरेको छु ।
You, my God, have explained to me, your servant, that you will build me a house. That's why your servant has had the courage to pray to you.
26 अब हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं नै परमेश्वर हुनुहुन्छ, र आफ्नो दाससित यो असल प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको छः
For you, Lord, are God! You are the one who has promised all these good things to your servant.
27 तपाईंको दासको घराना तपाईंको सामु सदा निरन्तर रहोस् भनी आशिष् दिने इच्छा तपाईंलाई भयो । तपाईं परमप्रभुले त्यसलाई आशिष् दिनुभएको छ, र त्यो सदाको निम्ति आशिषित हुनेछ ।”
So now, please bless your servant's house that it may continue in your presence forever. For when you bless, Lord, it is blessed forever.”
