2 Samuel 7
1 Pripetilo se je, ko je kralj sedel v svoji hiši in mu je vsenaokrog Gospod dal počitek, od vseh njegovih sovražnikov,
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 da je kralj rekel preroku Natánu: »Poglej torej, jaz prebivam v cedrovi hiši, toda Božja skrinja prebiva znotraj zaves.«
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 Natán je rekel kralju: »Pojdi, stori vse, kar je v tvojem srcu, kajti Gospod je s teboj.«
And Nathan said unto the king, All that is in thy heart, go—do, —for Yahweh is with thee.
4 To noč pa se je pripetilo, da je beseda od Gospoda prišla Natánu, rekoč:
But so it was, in that night, that the word of Yahweh came unto Nathan, saying:
5 »Pojdi in povej mojemu služabniku Davidu: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Mar mi boš zgradil hišo, da prebivam v njej?
Go and say unto my servant—unto David: Thus, saith Yahweh, —Shalt, thou, build me a house, for me to dwell in;
6 Medtem ko nisem prebival v katerikoli hiši od časa, ko sem Izraelove otroke privedel iz Egipta, celo do tega dne, temveč sem hodil v šotoru in v šotorskem svetišču.
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 Na vseh krajih, kjer sem hodil z vsemi Izraelovimi otroki, sem mar govoril besedo s katerimkoli izmed Izraelovih rodov, ki sem jim zapovedal, naj pasejo moje ljudstvo Izraela, rekoč: ›Zakaj mi ne zgradite cedrove hiše?‹
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 Sedaj boš torej tako rekel mojemu služabniku Davidu: ›Tako govori Gospod nad bojevniki: ›Vzel sem te iz ovčje staje, od sledenja za ovcami, da bi bil vladar nad mojim ljudstvom, nad Izraelom.
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 In bil sem s teboj kamorkoli si šel in odsekal sem vse tvoje sovražnike izpred tvojega pogleda in naredil sem ti veliko ime, podobno imenu velikih mož, ki so 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 Poleg tega bom določil kraj za svoje ljudstvo Izrael in jih zasadil, da bodo lahko prebivali na svojem lastnem kraju in se ne bodo več selili; niti jih otroci zlobnosti ne bodo več stiskali kakor poprej
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 in kot že od časa, ko sem sodnikom zapovedal, naj bodo nad mojim ljudstvom Izraelom in sem ti dal, da počivaš pred vsemi svojimi sovražniki.‹ In Gospod ti tudi govori, da ti bo naredil hišo.
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 Ko bodo tvoji dnevi izpolnjeni in boš zaspal s svojimi očeti, bom postavil tvoje seme za teboj, ki bo izšlo iz tvoje notranjosti in jaz bom osnoval njegovo kraljestvo.
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 bo zgradil hišo mojemu imenu in jaz bom na veke osnoval prestol njegovega kraljestva.
He, shall build a house for my name, —and I will establish his kingly throne unto times age-abiding:
14 Jaz bom njegov oče in on bo moj sin. Če stori krivičnost, ga bom karal s človeško šibo in z udarci človeških otrok,
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 toda moje usmiljenje ne bo odšlo proč od njega, kakor sem ga vzel od Savla, ki sem ga odstranil pred teboj.
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 Tvoja hiša in tvoje kraljestvo bo pred teboj osnovano na veke. Tvoj prestol bo osnovan na veke.‹«
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 Glede na vse te besede in glede na vse to videnje, tako je Natán govoril Davidu.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so, spake Nathan unto David.
18 Potem je vstopil kralj David in se usedel pred Gospodom ter rekel: »Kdo sem jaz, oh Gospod Bog? In kaj je moja hiša, da si me privedel do tu?
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 In to je bila še majhna stvar v tvojem pogledu, oh Gospod Bog, toda govoril si tudi o hiši tvojega služabnika za oddaljeni čas, ki pride. Ali je to človeški način, oh Gospod Bog?
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 Kaj ti še lahko reče David? Kajti ti, Gospod Bog, poznaš svojega služabnika.
What more, then, can David yet further speak unto thee, —seeing that, thou thyself knowest thy servant, O My Lord Yahweh?
21 Zaradi svojih besed in glede na svoje lastno srce si storil vse te velike stvari, da pripraviš svojega služabnika, da jih pozna.
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 Zakaj ti si velik, oh Gospod Bog, kajti nikogar ni podobnega tebi niti ni nobenega Boga poleg tebe, glede na vse, kar smo slišali z svojimi ušesi.
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 In kateri narod na zemlji je podoben tvojemu ljudstvu, celó podoben Izraelu, ki ga je Bog odšel odkupit za svoje ljudstvo in da mu naredi ime in da za vas stori velike stvari in strašne, za tvojo deželo, pred tvojim ljudstvom, ki si ga iz Egipta odkupil k sebi, pred narodi in njihovimi bogovi?
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 Kajti ti si si potrdil svoje ljudstvo Izrael, da ti bo ljudstvo na veke, in ti, Gospod, si postal njihov 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 Sedaj, oh Gospod Bog, beseda, ki si jo spregovoril glede svojega služabnika in glede svoje hiše, utrdi jo na veke in stôri, kakor si rekel.
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 Tvoje ime naj bo poveličano na veke, rekoč: › Gospod nad bojevniki je Bog nad Izraelom in hiša tvojega služabnika Davida naj bo osnovana pred teboj.‹
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 Kajti ti, oh Gospod nad bojevniki, Izraelov Bog, si razodel svojemu služabniku, rekoč: ›Zgradil ti bom hišo.‹ Zato je tvoj služabnik odkril v svojem srcu, da k tebi moli to molitev.
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 In sedaj, oh Gospod Bog, ti si ta Bog in tvoje besede so resnične in svojemu služabniku si obljubil to dobroto,
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 zato naj ti sedaj ugaja, da blagosloviš hišo svojega služabnika, da bo ta lahko na veke trajala pred teboj, kajti ti, oh Gospod Bog, si to govoril in s tvojim blagoslovom naj bo hiša tvojega služabnika blagoslovljena na veke.«
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.
