Taariikhdii Kowaad 17

1 Oo waxay noqotay markii Daa'uud gurigiisii degay, in Daa'uud Nebi Naataan ku yidhi, Bal eeg, anigu waxaan degganahay guri qori kedar ah laga sameeyey, laakiinse sanduuqii axdiga Rabbigu wuxuu yaal daahyo hoostood.

Once David had settled into his palace, he spoke to the prophet Nahum. “Look,” he said, “I'm living in a cedar palace while the Ark of the Lord's Agreement is kept in a tent!”

2 Markaasaa Naataan wuxuu Daa'uud ku yidhi, Wax alla wixii qalbigaaga ku jira oo dhan samee, waayo, Ilaah baa kula jira.

“Do what you think you should, for the God is with you,” Nathan replied.

3 Oo isla habeenkaas eraygii Ilaah baa u yimid Naataan oo ku yidhi,

But that night God told Nathan,

4 Tag, oo waxaad addoonkayga Daa'uud ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbigu wuxuu ku leeyahay, Waxba guri aan dego ha ii dhisin,

“Go and talk to my servant David. Tell him, this is what the Lord says, You are not to build a house for me to live in.

5 waayo, guri ma degin ilaa maalintii aan reer binu Israa'iil soo bixiyey iyo tan iyo maantadan, laakiinse teendhaba teendho kalaan uga bixi jiray oo taambuugna mid kalaan uga bixi jiray.

I have not lived in a house from the time I led Israel out of Egypt until now. I have lived in tents, moving from place to place.

6 Oo meel kasta oo aan kula socday reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan, xaakinnadii reer binu Israa'iil oo aan ku amray inay quudiyaan dadkayga ma midkood baan eray kula hadlay, oo miyaan ku idhi, War maxaad iigu dhisi weydeen guri kedar ah?

But in all those travels with all of Israel did I ever ask any Israelite leader I'd ordered to take care of my people, ‘Why haven't you built a cedar house for me?’

7 Haddaba waxaad addoonkayga Daa'uud ku tidhaahdaa, Rabbiga ciidammadu wuxuu leeyahay, Anaa kaa soo kaxeeyey xeradii idaha iyo idihii aad raacaysay, inaad ahaatid amiir u taliya dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil,

So then, go and tell my servant David this is what the Lord Almighty says. It was me who took you from the fields, from looking after sheep, to become a leader of my people Israel.

8 waanan kula jiray meel kastoo aad tagtayba, oo cadaawayaashaadii oo dhanna hortaadaan ka baabbi'iyey. Oo waxaan kuu bixin doonaa magac la mid ah magacyada kuwa waaweyn oo dhulka jooga.

I have been with you wherever you've gone. I have struck down all your enemies right in front of you, and I will make your reputation as great as the most famous people on earth.

9 Oo dadkayga reer binu Israa'iilna meel baan u dooran doonaa, oo waan ku beeri doonaa, inay meeshooda degganaadaan oo ayan mar dambe dhaqdhaqaaqin, ama ayan ilmaha sharku mar dambe dhibin sidii markii hore,

I will choose a place for my people Israel. I will settle them there and they won't be disturbed anymore. Evil people won't persecute them as they used to,

10 iyo tan iyo maalintii aan xaakinno ku amray inay dadkayga reer binu Israa'iil u taliyaan. Cadaawayaashaada oo dhanna waan jebin doonaa. Oo weliba waxaan kaloo kuu sheegayaa inuu Rabbigu reer kuu yeeli doono.

from the time I placed judges in charge of my people. I will defeat all of your enemies. Also I want to make it clear that I the Lord will build a house for you.

11 Oo markii cimrigaagu dhammaado, oo aad awowayaashaa la jiri doonto sida waajibka ah, ayaan sara kicin doonaa farcankaaga kaa dambeeya oo wiilashaada midkood ahaan doona, oo boqortooyadiisana waan dhisi doonaa.

For when you come to the end of your life and join your ancestors in death, I will bring to power one of your descendants, one of your sons, and make sure his kingdom is successful.

12 Oo isna guri buu ii dhisi doonaa, oo xoog baan u yeeli doonaa carshigiisa weligiis.

He will be the one to build me a house, and I will make sure his kingdom lasts forever.

13 Oo anigu aabbaan u ahaan doonaa, isna wiil buu ii ahaan doonaa, oo anna naxariistayda kama fogayn doono, sidii aan uga fogeeyey kii kaa horreeyey,

I will be a father to him, and he will be a son to me. I will never take away my kindness and love from him, as I did in the case of the one who ruled before you.

14 laakiinse waxaan isaga dhex taagi doonaa weligiisba gurigayga iyo boqortooyadayda, oo carshigiisuna weligiis wuu dhisnaan doonaa.

I will put him in charge of my house and my kingdom forever, and his dynasty will last forever.”

15 Haddaba siday erayadaas oo dhan iyo tusniintaas oo dhammu ahaayeen ayaa Naataan kula hadlay Daa'uud.

This is what Nathan explained to David—everything he was told in this divine revelation.

16 Markaasaa Boqor Daa'uud gudaha galay oo Rabbiga hor fadhiistay, oo wuxuu yidhi, Rabbow Ilaahow, bal yaan ahay? Reerkayguna waa maxay oo aad halkan ii soo gaadhsiisay?

Then King David went and sat down in the presence of the Lord. He prayed, “Who am I, Lord God, and what is significant about my family, that you have brought me to this place?

17 Oo waxanu hortaada wuu ku yaraa, Ilaahow, laakiinse waxaad kaloo ka sii hadashay reerkaygu wuxuu wakhti dheer noqon doono, anoo addoonkaaga ah, oo weliba Rabbow Ilaahow, waxaad iiga fikirtay sidii nin darajo weyn leh.

God, you talk as if this was a small thing in your eyes, and you also have spoken about the future of my house, my family dynasty. You also see me as someone very important, Lord God.

18 Bal maxaan kaloo kugu odhan karaa taasoo ku saabsan cisadii aad ii samaysay anoo addoonkaaga ah? Waayo, waad i garanaysaa.

What more can I, David, say to you for honoring me in this way? You know your servant all too well!

19 Rabbow, aniga daraadday, iyo qalbigaaga siduu yahay, ayaad waxyaalahan waaweyn oo dhan u samaysay, inaad waxyaalahan waaweyn oo dhan wada muujiso.

Lord, you're doing all this for me, your servant, and because it's what you want—doing all these amazing things and letting people know about them.

20 Rabbiyow, mid kula mid ahu ma jiro, oo adiga mooyaane Ilaah kale ma jiro, siday ahaayeen kulli wixii aannu dhegahayaga ku maqalnay oo dhammu.

Lord, there really is no-one like you; there is no other God, only you. We have never heard about anyone else.

21 Bal quruuntee baa dunida joogta oo la mid ah dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil, kuwaasoo adiga qudhaadu aad soo furatay inay dad kuu ahaadaan iyo inaad magac isugu yeesho waxyaalo waaweyn oo cabsi badan, markaad quruumaha ka eriday dadkaaga hortiisa, kuwaasoo aad ka soo furatay dalkii Masar?

Who else is as fortunate as your people Israel? Who else on earth did God go and redeem to make his own people? You gained a wonderful reputation for yourself by all the tremendous, amazing things you did in driving out other nations before your people as you redeemed them from Egypt.

22 Waayo, dadkaaga reer binu Israa'iil waxaad ka dhigtay inay dadkaaga ahaadaan weligood, oo Ilaahood baad noqotay, Rabbiyow.

You made your people Israel your own forever, and you, Lord, have become their God.

23 Haddaba Rabbow, eraygii aad ku hadashay oo igu saabsanaa anoo addoonkaaga ah, oo ku saabsanaa reerkayga, weligaa adkee oo sidaad ku hadashay yeel.

So now, Lord, please ensure that what you have said about me and my house happens, and lasts forever. Please do as you have promised,

24 Oo magacaaguna ha xoogaysto oo ha weynaado weligiis, hana la yidhaahdo, Rabbiga ciidammadu waa Ilaaha reer binu Israa'iil, isagu wuxuu Ilaah u yahay reer binu Israa'iil, oo anoo addoonkaaga Daa'uud ah reerkaygu hortaaduu ku dhisan yahay.

and may your true nature be recognized and honored forever, with people declaring, ‘The Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, is Israel's God!’ May the house of your servant David continue to be there in your presence.

25 Waayo, Ilaahayow, anoo addoonkaaga ah wax baad ii muujisay, oo waxaad igu tidhi, Reer baan kuu dhisi doonaa, sidaas daraaddeed waan ku dhiirranahay inaan baryadan hortaada kugu baryo.

You, my God, have explained to me, your servant, that you will build me a house. That's why your servant has had the courage to pray to you.

26 Haddaba Rabbiyow, adigu waxaad tahay Ilaah, oo waxan wanaagsan baad ii ballanqaadday, anoo addoonkaaga ah,

For you, Lord, are God! You are the one who has promised all these good things to your servant.

27 oo waxaad ku faraxday inaad barakaysid reerkayga anoo addoonkaaga ah, inuu weligiisba hortaada ku sii raago, waayo, Rabbiyow, adigu waad barakaysay, oo wuu barakaysan yahay weligiis.

So now, please bless your servant's house that it may continue in your presence forever. For when you bless, Lord, it is blessed forever.”
