२ शमूएल 7

1 राजाले आफ्नो घर व्यवस्थित गरेपछि र तिनका वरिपरिका सबै शत्रुबाट परमप्रभुले विश्राम दिनुभएपछि,

Now it happened that, when the king had settled in his house, and the Lord had given him rest on every side from all his enemies,

2 राजाले नतान अगमवक्‍तालाई भने, “हे्र्नुहोस्, म देवदारुको महलमा बसिरहेको छु, तर परमेश्‍वरको सन्दुकचाहिं पालको माझमा रहिरहेको छ ।”

he said to the prophet Nathan, “Do you not see that I live in a house of cedar, and that the ark of God has been placed in the midst of tent skins?”

3 त्यसपछी नातानने राजालाई भने, “जानुहोस्, तपाईंको मनमा जे छ सो गर्नुहोस्, किनभने परमप्रभु तपाईंसँग हुनुहुन्छ ।”

And Nathan said to the king: “Go, do all that is in your heart. For the Lord is with you.”

4 तर त्यसै रात परमप्रभुको वचन नातानकहाँ यसो भनेर आयो,

But it happened in that night, behold, the word of the Lord came to Nathan, saying:

5 “जा र मेरो दास दाऊदलाई भन्, 'परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'के तैंले मेरो निम्ति बस्‍नलाई मन्‍दिर बनाउने छस्?

“Go, and say to my servant David: ‘Thus says the Lord: Should you build a house for me as a dwelling place?

6 किनकि मैले इस्राएलका मानिसलाई मिश्र देशबाट ल्याएको दिनदेखि वर्तमान्‌ समयसम्म नै म मन्‍दिरमा बसेको छैन । बरु, म पालमा अर्थात् पवित्र वासस्थानमा नै घुमिहिंडेको छु ।

For I have not lived in a house from the day that I led the sons of Israel away from the land of Egypt, even to this day. Instead, I have walked in a tabernacle, and in a tent.

7 इस्राएलका सबै मानिस माझमा म घुमफिर गरेका सबै ठाउँमा, मेरा मानिस इस्राएलका रेखदेख गर्न मैले नियुक्‍ति गरेका इस्राएलका कुनै पनि अगुवालाई मैले कहिलै यसो भनें र, “तैंले मेरो निम्ति किन देवदारुको मन्‍दिर बनाएको छैनस्?”

And in all the places that I have crossed through, with all the sons of Israel, did I ever speak a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel, whom I instructed to pasture my people Israel, saying: Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’

8 अब उप्रान्‍त, मेरो सेवक दाऊदलाई यसो भन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु भन्‍नुहुन्छ, 'मैले तँलाई खर्कबाट, भेडाहरूको पछिपछि हिंड्न छोडेर बोलाएँ, ताकि तैंले मेरा मानिस इस्राएलाई शासन गर्नुपर्छ ।

And now, so shall you speak to my servant David: ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: I took you from the pastures, from following the sheep, so that you would be the leader over my people Israel.

9 तँ जहाँजहाँ गए तापनि म तँसँगै गएको छु । मैले तेरा सबै शत्रुलाई तेरो सामुन्‍नेबाट नामेट पारेको छु । अब म तेरो नाउँलाई पृथ्वीका महान् नाउँहरूजस्तै महान् बनाउने छु ।

And I have been with you everywhere that you walked. And I have slain all your enemies before your face. And I have made you a great name, beside the name of the great ones who are upon the earth.

10 म आफ्‍ना मानिस इस्राएलको निम्ति एउटा स्थान नियुक्‍ति गर्नेछु र तिनीहरूलाई म त्यहाँ राख्‍ने छु, ताकि तिनीहरू आफ्नै ठाउँमा बसोबास गरुन् र फेरि समस्‍या नपरुन् । दुष्‍ट मानिसहरूले पहिले गरेझैं फेरि तिनीहरूलाई थिचोमिचो गर्ने छैनन् ।

And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and I will plant them, and they shall live there, and they shall no longer be disturbed. Neither shall the sons of iniquity continue to afflict them as before,

11 जस्तो मेरा मानिस इस्राएलका निम्ति न्यायकर्ता हुनलाई मैले आज्ञा गरेका दिनहरूदेखि नै तिनीहरूले गरिरहेका थिए । अब तेरा सबै शत्रुबाट म तँलाई विश्राम दिने छु । यसको साथै, म परमप्रभुले तँलाई भन्‍छु कि म तेरो निम्ति एउटा घराना बनाउने छु ।

from the day when I appointed judges over my people Israel. And I will give rest to you from all your enemies. And the Lord foretells to you that the Lord himself will make a house for you.

12 जब तेरो दिन पुरा हुने छ र तँ आफ्‍ना पुर्खाहरूसँग सुत्‍ने छस्, तब तँपछिको तेरो सन्तानलाई म खडा गर्ने छु, जो तेरै शरीरबाट आउने छ र म त्यसको राज्य स्थापित गर्ने छु ।

And when your days will have been fulfilled, and you will sleep with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who will go forth from your loins, and I will make firm his kingdom.

13 त्यसैले मेरो नाउँको निम्ति एउटा मन्‍दिर बनाउने छ र म त्यसको सिंहासनलाई सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गर्ने छु ।

He himself shall build a house to my name. And I will establish the throne of his kingdom, even forever.

14 म त्यको बुबा हुने छु र त्यो मेरो छोरा हुने छ । जब त्यसले पाप गर्छ, तब म त्यसलाई मानिसका लोरोले र मानिसका छोराहरूका कोर्राहरूले अनुशासित गर्ने छु ।

I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me. And if he will commit any iniquity, I will correct him with the rod of men and with the wounds of the sons of men.

15 तर मेरो करारको बफदारीताको त्यसलाई छोड्ने छैन, जसरी मैले त्‍यो शाऊलबाट थिएँ, जसलाई मैले तेरो सामुबाट हटाएँ ।

But my mercy I will not take away from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from before my face.

16 तेरो घराना र राज्य तेरो सामु सदाको निम्ति सुदृढ गरिने छ । तेरो सिंहसान सदाको निम्ति स्थापित गरिने छ' ।”

And your house shall be faithful, and your kingdom shall be before your face, for eternity, and your throne shall be secure continuously.’”

17 नातानले दाऊदलाई भने, र तिनले यी सबै वचन तिनला सुनाए र तिनले उनलाई समग्र दर्शनबारे बताए ।

According to all these words, and according to this entire vision, so did Nathan speak to David.

18 त्यसपछि राजा दाऊद भित्र गए र परमप्रभुको सामु बसे र यसो भने, “हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, म को हुँ र मेरो परिवार के हो र मलाई यहाँसम्म ल्याउनुभएको छ?

Then king David entered and sat before the Lord, and he said: “Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that you would bring me to this point?

19 अब हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, यो तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा सानो कुरा थियो । हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंको सेवकको घरानामा धेरै समयपछि हुन आउने कुराका बारेमा पनि तपाईंले भन्‍नुभएको छ र भावी पुस्‍ताहरूका बारेमा मलाई प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ ।

Moreover, this has seemed little in your sight, O Lord God, unless you also will speak about the house of your servant for a long time. For this is the law of Adam, O Lord God.

20 म दाऊदले तपाईंलाई अरू भन्‍न सक्‍छु र? हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंको सेवकलाई तपाईंले चिन्‍नुभएको छ ।

Therefore, what more will David be able to say to you? For you know your servant, O Lord God.

21 तपाईंको वचनको खातिर र तपाईंको आफ्नो उद्‍देश्‍य पूरा गर्नलाई, तपाईंले यो ठुलो काम गर्नुभएको छ र तपाईंको सेवकलाई त्‍यो प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ ।

Because of your word, and according to your own heart, you have done all these great deeds, so that you would make it known to your servant.

22 यसकारण, हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईं महान् हुनुहुन्छ, किनकि तपाईंजस्तो कोही पनि छैन र तपाईंबाहेक कुनै परमेश्‍वर छैन, जस्तो हाम्रा आफ्नै कानले हामीले सुनेका छौं ।

For this reason, you are magnified, O Lord God. For there is no one like you. And there is no God except you, in all the things that we have heard with our own ears.

23 तपाईंको मानिस इस्राएलजस्तो कुन जाति छ, एउटा यस्तो जाति जसलाई तपाईं परमेश्‍वर आफैं गएर छुटकारा दिनुभयो? तपाईंले यो गर्नुभयो ताकि तपाईंको आफ्‍नो नाउँ महान् बनाउन, र तपाईंको देशको निम्ति डरलाग्‍दा कामहरू गर्न तिनीहरू तपाईंका मानिसहरू हुन सकुन् । जातिहरूलाई र तिनीहरूका देवताहरूलाई तपाईंले आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूका सामुबाट धपाउनुभयो, जसलाई तपाईंले मिश्रदेशबाट छुटकारा दिनुभयो ।

But what nation is there upon the earth like your people Israel, because of whom God went forth, so that he might redeem a people for himself, and establish a name for himself, and accomplish for them great and terrible things upon the earth, before the face of your people, whom you redeemed for yourself away from Egypt, the nations and their gods.

24 तपाईंले इस्राएललाई सदाको निम्ति आफ्नै मानिसको रूपमा स्थापित गर्नुभयो र तपाईं परमप्रभु नै तिनीहरूका परमेश्‍वर हुनुभयो ।

For you have secured your people Israel for yourself, as an everlasting people. And you, O Lord God, have become their God.

25 त्यसैले अब, हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईंले आफ्नो सेवक र त्यसको घरानाको बारेमा गर्नुभएको प्रतिज्ञा सदाको निम्ति स्थापित होस् । तपाईंले जस्‍तो भन्‍नुभएको छ त्‍यस्‍तै गर्नुहोस् ।

Now therefore, O Lord God, raise up forever the word that you have spoken over your servant and over his house. And do just as you have said,

26 तपाईंको नाउँ सदासर्वदा महान् होस्, ताकि मानिसहरूले भनुन्, 'सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु नै इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ' जति बेला तपाईंको सेकम म, दाऊदको घराना तपाईंको सामु स्थापित हुन्छ ।

so that your name may be magnified even forever, and so that it may be said: ‘The Lord of hosts is the God over Israel.’ And the house of your servant David will be established in the sight of the Lord.

27 किनकि हे सर्वशक्तिमान् परमप्रभु, इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वर, आफ्‍नो सेवकको निम्‍ति तपाईंले एउटा घराना निर्माण गर्नुहुने छ भनी तपाईंले उसलाई प्रकट गर्नुभएको छ । यसैले म तपाईंको सेवकले तपाईंसँग प्रार्थना गर्ने आँट गरेको छु ।

For you, O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, have revealed to the ear of your servant, saying, ‘I will build a house for you.’ Because of this, your servant has found it in his heart to pray this prayer to you.

28 अब हे परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, तपाईं परमेश्‍वर हुनुहुन्छ र तपाईंका वचनहरू भरपर्दा छन् र तपाईंले आफ्नो सेवकलाई यो असल प्रतिज्ञा गर्नुभएको छ ।

Now therefore, O Lord God, you are God, and your words shall be true. For you have spoken to your servant these good things.

29 अब उप्रान्त, आफ्नो सेवकको घरानालाई आशिष् दिन प्रशन्‍न हुनुहोस्, ताकि तपाईंको सामु यो सदा रहिरहोस् । किनकि हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंले यी कुराहरू भन्‍नुभएको छ र तपाईंको आशिष्‌ले तपाईंको सेवकको घरानाले सदा आशिष् पाउने छ ।

Therefore, begin, and bless the house of your servant, so that it may be forever before you. For you, O Lord God, have spoken. And so, let the house of your servant be blessed with your blessing forever.”
