2 Samuelova 7
1 A kad car sjeðaše kod kuæe svoje, i Gospod mu dade mir svuda unaokolo od svijeh neprijatelja njegovijeh,
And it came to pass, when the king had taken up his abode in his house, —and Yahweh had given him rest round about, from all his enemies,
2 Reèe car Natanu proroku: vidi, ja stojim u kuæi od kedrova drveta, a kovèeg Božji stoji pod zavjesima.
that the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See, I pray thee—I, have my abode in a house, of cedar, but, the ark of God, abideth in, the midst, of curtains.
3 A Natan reèe caru: šta ti je god u srcu, idi, èini, jer je Gospod s tobom.
And Nathan said unto the king, All that is in thy heart, go—do, —for Yahweh is with thee.
4 Ali onu noæ doðe rijeè Gospodnja k Natanu govoreæi:
But so it was, in that night, that the word of Yahweh came unto Nathan, saying:
5 Idi i reci sluzi mojemu Davidu: ovako veli Gospod: ti li æeš mi naèiniti kuæu da u njoj nastavam?
Go and say unto my servant—unto David: Thus, saith Yahweh, —Shalt, thou, build me a house, for me to dwell in;
6 Kad nijesam nastavao u kuæi otkad izvedoh sinove Izrailjeve iz Misira do danas, nego sam hodio u šatoru i u naslonu,
seeing that I have not dwelt in a house, since the day that I brought up the sons of Israel out of Egypt, even unto this day, —but have been wandering in a tent as my habitation?
7 Kuda sam god hodio sa svijem sinovima Izrailjevim, jesam li jednu rijeè rekao kome od sudija Izrailjevijeh, kojima zapovijedah da pasu narod moj Izrailja, i kazao: zašto mi ne naèinite kuæe od kedra?
Wheresoever I have wandered with any of the sons of Israel, spake I ever, a word, with any one of the tribes of Israel, whom I charged to shepherd my people Israel, saying, —Wherefore have ye not built me a house, of cedar?
8 Ovako dakle reci Davidu sluzi mojemu: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: ja te uzeh od tora, od ovaca, da budeš voð narodu mojemu, Izrailju;
Now, therefore, thus, shalt thou say unto my servant, unto David: Thus, saith Yahweh of hosts, I myself, took thee away from the pasture, from after the flock, —to become leader over my people, over Israel;
9 I bjeh s tobom kuda si god hodio, i istrijebih sve neprijatelje tvoje ispred tebe, i stekoh ti ime veliko, kao što je ime velikijeh ljudi koji su na zemlji.
and was with thee, whithersoever thou didst go, and have cut off all thine enemies, from before thee, —and will make thee a name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth;
10 I odrediæu mjesto narodu svojemu Izrailju, i posadiæu ga, te æe nastavati u svom mjestu, i neæe se više pretresati, niti æe ih više muèiti nepravednici kao prije,
and will appoint a place for my people, for Israel, and will plant them, and they shall inhabit their place, and be unsettled no more, —neither shall the sons of perversity again humiliate them, as at first;
11 I od onoga dana kad postavih sudije nad narodom svojim Izrailjem; i smiriæu te od svijeh neprijatelja tvojih. Jošte ti javlja Gospod da æe ti Gospod naèiniti kuæu.
even from the day when I put judges in charge over my people Israel, thus will I give thee rest from all thine enemies. And Yahweh must tell thee that, a house, will Yahweh make for thee.
12 Kad se navrše dani tvoji, i poèineš kod otaca svojih, podignuæu sjeme tvoje nakon tebe, koje æe izaæi iz utrobe tvoje, i utvrdiæu carstvo njegovo.
And it shall be that, when thy days shall be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, then will I raise up thy seed after thee, which proceedeth from thine own body, —and I will establish his kingdom.
13 On æe sazidati dom imenu mojemu, i utvrdiæu prijesto carstva njegova dovijeka.
He, shall build a house for my name, —and I will establish his kingly throne unto times age-abiding:
14 Ja æu mu biti otac, i on æe mi biti sin; ako uèini što zlo, karaæu ga prutom ljudskim i udarcima sinova èovjeèijih.
I, will become his father, And, he, shall become my son: If he commit iniquity, then will I correct him, with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the sons of men;
15 Ali milost moja neæe se ukloniti od njega kao što sam je uklonio od Saula, kojega uklonih ispred tebe.
But, my lovingkindness, shall not depart from him, —as I caused it to depart from Saul, whom I caused to depart from before thee.
16 Nego æe tvrd biti dom tvoj i carstvo tvoje dovijeka pred tobom, i prijesto æe tvoj stajati dovijeka.
So shall thy house and thy kingdom be made steadfast unto times age-abiding, before thee, —thy throne, shall be established unto times age-abiding.
17 Po svijem ovijem rijeèima i po svoj ovoj utvari kaza Natan Davidu.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so, spake Nathan unto David.
18 Tada doðe car David i stade pred Gospodom, i reèe: ko sam ja, Gospode, Gospode, i šta je moj dom, te si me doveo dovde?
Then entered King David, and tarried before Yahweh, —and said—Who am, I, My Lord, Yahweh, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me, hitherto;
19 Pa i to ti se još èini malo, Gospode, Gospode, nego si govorio i za dom sluge svojega na dugo vremena. Je li to zakon èovjeèji, Gospode, Gospode!
and hast yet further made this seem little in thine eyes, My Lord, Yahweh, in that thou hast spoken, even of the house, of thy servant, for a great while to come? This, then is the law of manhood, O My Lord, Yahweh!
20 Ali šta æe jošte David da ti govori? ta ti znaš slugu svojega, Gospode, Gospode!
What more, then, can David yet further speak unto thee, —seeing that, thou thyself knowest thy servant, O My Lord Yahweh?
21 Radi rijeèi svoje i po srcu svojemu uèinio si sve ove velike stvari obznanjujuæi ih sluzi svojemu.
For the sake of thine own word, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all this great thing, —making it known unto thy servant.
22 Zato si velik, Gospode Bože, nema takoga kakav si ti; i nema Boga osim tebe, po svemu što èusmo svojim ušima.
For this cause, hast thou magnified thyself, O Yahweh Elohim, —for there is none like unto, thee, yea there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
23 Jer koji je narod na zemlji kao tvoj narod Izrailj? kojega je radi Bog išao da ga iskupi da mu bude narod i da steèe sebi ime i da vam uèini velika i strašna djela u zemlji tvojoj, pred narodom tvojim, koji si iskupio sebi iz Misira, od naroda i bogova njihovijeh.
Who, then, is like thy people, like Israel, a nation alone in the earth? whom God went to redeem for himself as a people, so to make himself a name, and to do for you the great deed, fearful things also for thy land, to make way for thy people, whom thou hadst redeemed for thyself, out of Egypt, [dealing with] nations and their god’s;
24 Jer si utvrdio sebi narod svoj Izrailja da ti bude narod dovijeka; a ti si im, Gospode, Bog.
and hast established for thyself thy people Israel—for thyself as a people, unto times age-abiding, —thou thyself, also, O Yahweh, becoming their God.
25 I tako, Gospode Bože, rijeè koju si obrekao sluzi svojemu i domu njegovu, potvrdi zasvagda, i uèini kako si rekao.
Now, therefore, O Yahweh Elohim, the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, confirm thou, unto times age-abiding, —and do, as thou hast spoken:
26 Neka se velièa ime tvoje dovijeka, da se govori: Gospod je nad vojskama Bog nad Izrailjem; i dom sluge tvojega Davida neka stoji tvrdo pred tobom.
that thy name may be age-abidingly magnified, saying, Yahweh of hosts, is God over Israel, and so, the house of thy servant David, be established before thee.
27 Jer si ti, Gospode nad vojskama, Bože Izrailjev, javio sluzi svojemu govoreæi: dom æu sazidati tebi. Zato sluga tvoj naðe u srcu svojem da ti se pomoli ovom molitvom.
For, thou, O Yahweh of hosts, God of Israel, hast unveiled the ear of thy servant, saying—A house, will I build for thee. For this cause, hath thy servant found in his heart, to pray unto thee, this prayer.
28 Tako, Gospode, Gospode, ti si Bog, i rijeèi su tvoje istina; ti si ovo dobro obrekao sluzi svojemu.
Now, therefore, O My Lord, Yahweh, thou, art God, and, thy words, shall prove true, —therefore hast thou spoken unto thy servant this goodness.
29 Budi dakle voljan i blagoslovi dom sluge svojega da bude dovijeka pred tobom; jer si ti, Gospode, rekao, i tvojim æe blagoslovom biti blagosloven dom sluge tvojega dovijeka.
Now, therefore, be pleased to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue age-abidingly before thee, —for, thou, O My Lord, Yahweh, hast spoken, therefore, with thine own blessing, shall the house of thy servant be age-abidingly blessed.
