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,
When the king lived in his house, and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies all around,
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, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but God’s ark dwells within curtains.”
3 Natán je rekel kralju: »Pojdi, stori vse, kar je v tvojem srcu, kajti Gospod je s teboj.«
Nathan said to the king, “Go, do all that is in your heart, for the LORD is with you.”
4 To noč pa se je pripetilo, da je beseda od Gospoda prišla Natánu, rekoč:
That same night, the LORD’s word 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 my servant David, ‘The LORD says, “Should you 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.
For I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought the children of Israel up out of Egypt, even to this day, but have moved around in a tent and in 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 in which I have walked with all the children of Israel, did I say a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel whom I commanded to be shepherd of 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 therefore tell my servant David this: ‘The LORD of Armies says, “I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, to be prince 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.
I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a great 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
I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place and be moved no more. The children of wickedness will not afflict them any more, as at the 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.
and as from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover the LORD tells you that the LORD 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 sleep with your fathers, I will set up your offspring after you, who will proceed out of 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 his father, and he will be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children 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 loving kindness will not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.
16 Tvoja hiša in tvoje kraljestvo bo pred teboj osnovano na veke. Tvoj prestol bo osnovan na veke.‹«
Your house and your kingdom will be made sure 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 all these words, and according to all this 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 the LORD; and he said, “Who am I, Lord GOD, and what is my house, that you have brought me this far?
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?
This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord GOD, but you have spoken also of your servant’s house for a great while to come; and this amongst men, Lord GOD!
20 Kaj ti še lahko reče David? Kajti ti, Gospod Bog, poznaš svojega služabnika.
What more can David say to you? For you know your servant, Lord GOD.
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 according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.
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 God. For there is no one like you, neither is there any God besides you, 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?
What one nation in the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make himself a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeemed to yourself out of Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
24 Kajti ti si si potrdil svoje ljudstvo Izrael, da ti bo ljudstvo na veke, in ti, Gospod, si postal njihov Bog.
You established for yourself your people Israel to be your people forever; and you, LORD, 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.
“Now, LORD God, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and 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.‹
Let your name be magnified forever, saying, ‘The LORD of Armies is God over Israel; and the house of your servant David will be 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, LORD of Armies, the God of Israel, have revealed to your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.’ Therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray this prayer 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, O Lord GOD, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing 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 therefore, let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord GOD, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing.”
