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,
It happened that after the king had settled in his house, and after Yahweh had given him rest from all his surrounding enemies,
2 da je kralj rekel preroku Natánu: »Poglej torej, jaz prebivam v cedrovi hiši, toda Božja skrinja prebiva znotraj zaves.«
the king said to Nathan the prophet, “Look, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God is staying in the middle of a tent.”
3 Natán je rekel kralju: »Pojdi, stori vse, kar je v tvojem srcu, kajti Gospod je s teboj.«
Then Nathan said to the king, “Go, do what is in your heart, for Yahweh is with you.”
4 To noč pa se je pripetilo, da je beseda od Gospoda prišla Natánu, rekoč:
But that same night the word of Yahweh came to Nathan, saying,
5 »Pojdi in povej mojemu služabniku Davidu: ›Tako govori Gospod: ›Mar mi boš zgradil hišo, da prebivam v njej?
“Go and tell David my servant, 'This is what Yahweh says: Will you build me a house in which to live?
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.
For I have not lived in a house from the day that I brought up the people of Israel out of Egypt until this present day; instead, I have been moving about in a tent, a tabernacle.
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?‹
In all places where I have moved among all the people of Israel, did I ever say anything to any of Israel's leaders whom I appointed to shepherd my people Israel, saying, “Why have you 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 then, tell my servant David, “This is what Yahweh of hosts says: 'I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, so that you would be ruler over my people 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.
I have been with you wherever you went. I have cut off all your enemies from before you. Now I will make your name great, like the names of the great ones of 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
I will appoint a place for my people Israel and will plant them there, so that they may live in their own place and be troubled no more. No longer will wicked people oppress them, as they did before,
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.
as they were doing from the days that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. Now I will give you rest from all your enemies. Moreover, I, Yahweh declare to you that I will make you a house.
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.
When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up a descendant after you, one who will come out from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.
13 On bo zgradil hišo mojemu imenu in jaz bom na veke osnoval prestol njegovega kraljestva.
He will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
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 be a father to him, and he will be my son. When he sins, I will discipline him with the rod of men and with the whipping 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 covenant faithfulness will not leave him, as I took it from Saul, whom I removed from before you.
16 Tvoja hiša in tvoje kraljestvo bo pred teboj osnovano na veke. Tvoj prestol bo osnovan na veke.‹«
Your house and kingdom will be confirmed forever before you. Your throne will be established forever.'”
17 Glede na vse te besede in glede na vse to videnje, tako je Natán govoril Davidu.
Nathan spoke to David and reported to him all these words, and he told him about the entire vision.
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 David the king went in and sat before Yahweh and said, “Who am I, Yahweh God, and what is my family that you have brought me to this point?
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?
Now this was a small thing in your sight, Lord Yahweh. You have even spoken about your servant's family for a great while to come, and have shown me future generations, Lord Yahweh!
20 Kaj ti še lahko reče David? Kajti ti, Gospod Bog, poznaš svojega služabnika.
What more can I, David, say to you? You have known your servant, 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 your word's sake, and to fulfill your own purpose, you have done this great thing and revealed it to your 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.
Therefore you are great, Lord Yahweh, for there is no one like you, and there is no God besides you, as we have heard with our own 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?
What nation is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom you, God, went and rescued for yourself? You did this so that they would become a people for yourself, to make a name for yourself, and to do great and fearful deeds for your land. You drove out nations and their gods from before your people, whom you rescued from Egypt.
24 Kajti ti si si potrdil svoje ljudstvo Izrael, da ti bo ljudstvo na veke, in ti, Gospod, si postal njihov Bog.
You established Israel as your own people forever, and you, Yahweh, became 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.
So now, Yahweh God, may the promise that you made concerning your servant and his family be established forever. Do as you have 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.‹
May your name be forever great, so the people will say, 'Yahweh of hosts is the God of Israel,' while the house of me, David, your servant is established before you.
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 you, Yahweh of hosts, the God of Israel, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. That is why I, your servant, have found courage to pray to you.
28 In sedaj, oh Gospod Bog, ti si ta Bog in tvoje besede so resnične in svojemu služabniku si obljubil to dobroto,
Now, Lord Yahweh, you are God, and your words are trustworthy, and you have made this good promise to your servant.
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 then, let it please you to bless the house of your servant, so that it may continue forever before you. For you, Lord Yahweh, have said these things, and with your blessing your servant's house will be blessed forever.”
