1 Chronicles 17

1 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Dafidi ti fi ìdí kalẹ̀ sínú ààfin rẹ̀, ó sọ fún Natani wòlíì pé, “Èmi nìyí, tí ń gbé inú ààfin kedari nígbà tí àpótí ẹ̀rí Olúwa wà lábẹ́ àgọ́.”

It happened, when David lived in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, "Look, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD is under curtains."

2 Natani dá Dafidi lóhùn pé, “Ohunkóhun tí o bá ní lọ́kàn, ṣe é nítorí tí Ọlọ́run wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”

Nathan said to David, "Do all that is in your heart; for God is with you."

3 Ní àṣálẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run tọ Natani wá, wí pé:

It happened the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

4 “Lọ sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ mi Dafidi, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ kọ́ ilé fún mi láti máa gbé.

"Go and tell David my servant, 'Thus says the LORD, "You shall not build me a house to dwell in;

5 Èmi kò tí ì gbé nínú ilé láti ọjọ́ tí mo ti mú Israẹli jáde wá láti Ejibiti títí di òní yìí. Èmi ń lọ láti àgọ́ dé àgọ́ àti láti ibùgbé dé ibùgbé.

for I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day, but have gone about from tent to tent, and from tabernacle to tabernacle.

6 Ni ibi gbogbo tí mo ti bá gbogbo Israẹli rìn dé, ǹjẹ́ mo wí nǹkan kan sí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn adarí Israẹli, tí èmí pàṣẹ fún láti máa jẹ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn àwọn ènìyàn mi, wí pé, “Kí ní ṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò fi kọ́ ilé tí a fi igi kedari kọ́ fún mi?”’

In all places in which I have walked with all Israel, did I speak a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people, saying, 'Why have you not built me a house of cedar?'"'

7 “Nígbà náà, sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ mi Dafidi pé, ‘Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí: Èmi mú ọ kúrò ní pápá oko tútù wá, àní kúrò lẹ́yìn agbo àgùntàn, kí ìwọ kí ó lè máa ṣe olórí àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli.

"Now therefore, you shall tell my servant David, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel.

8 Èmi ti wà pẹ̀lú rẹ ní, ibikíbi tí ìwọ bá lọ, èmí sì ti gé gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ kúrò níwájú rẹ. Nísinsin yìí Èmi yóò mú kí orúkọ rẹ kí ó dàbí orúkọ àwọn ènìyàn ńlá jùlọ tí ó wà ní ayé.

I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.

9 Èmi yóò sì pèsè ààyè kan fún àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli, kí wọn kí ó lè ní ilé tiwọn, kí a má sì ṣe dààmú wọn mọ́. Àwọn ènìyàn búburú kì yóò ni wọ́n lára mọ́, gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ṣe ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀.

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; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the first,

10 Bí wọ́n sì ti ṣe láti ìgbà tí mo ti yan àwọn aṣáájú lórí àwọn ènìyàn mi Israẹli. Èmi pẹ̀lú yóò ṣẹ́gun gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá yín. “‘Èmi sọ fún yín pé Olúwa yóò kọ́ ilé kan fún yín,

and from the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel; and I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover I tell you that the LORD will build you a house.

11 nígbà ti ọjọ́ rẹ bá kọjá, tí ìwọ bá lọ láti lọ bá àwọn baba à rẹ, Èmi yóò gbé àwọn ọmọ rẹ sókè láti rọ́pò rẹ, ọ̀kan lára àwọn ọmọ tìrẹ, Èmi yóò sì fìdí ìjọba rẹ̀ kalẹ̀.

And it will come about when your days are fulfilled, when you must go to be with your fathers, that I will raise up your descendant after you, who shall be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom.

12 Òun ni ẹni tí yóò kọ́ ilé fún mi, èmi yóò sí fi ìdí ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ kalẹ̀ títí láé.

He will build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.

13 Èmi yóò jẹ́ baba rẹ̀, Òun yóò sì jẹ́ ọmọ mi. Èmi kì yóò mú ìfẹ́ mi kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ láéláé gẹ́gẹ́ bí mo ṣe mú un kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn aṣáájú rẹ̀.

I will be his father, and he shall be my son. I will not take my loving kindness away from him, as I took it from him that was before you;

14 Èmi yóò gbé e ka orí ilé mi àti ìjọba mi títí láé; ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ ni a ó fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ títí láé.’”

but I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever. His throne shall be established forever."'"

15 Natani ròyìn fún Dafidi gbogbo àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ ti ìfihàn yí.

According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.

16 Nígbà náà, ọba Dafidi wọlé lọ, ó sì jókòó níwájú Olúwa ó sì wí pé, “Ta ni èmi, Olúwa Ọlọ́run, àti ki ni ìdílé mi, tí ìwọ mú mi dé ibí?

Then king David went in and sat before the LORD and said, "Who am I, LORD God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?

17 Pẹ̀lú bí ẹni pé èyí kò tó lójú rẹ, Ọlọ́run, ìwọ ti sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ọjọ́ iwájú ilé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ. Ìwọ ti wò mí bí ẹni pé èmi ni ẹni gbígbéga jù láàrín àwọn ọkùnrin Olúwa Ọlọ́run.

This was a small thing in your eyes, God, but you have spoken of your servant's house for a great while to come, and you have let me look upon the generation of humankind to come, LORD God.

18 “Kí ni ohun tí Dafidi tún lè sọ nítorí ọlá tí o bù fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ? Nítorí tí ìwọ mọ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ,

What can David say yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant, LORD.

19 Olúwa. Nítorí ti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí àṣẹ rẹ, ìwọ ti ṣe ohun ńlá yìí àti láti fi gbogbo ìlérí ńlá yìí hàn.

For your servant's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make known to your servant all these great things.

20 “Kò sí ẹnìkan bí rẹ Olúwa, kò sì sí Ọlọ́run kan àfi ìwọ, gẹ́gẹ́ bí à ti gbọ́ pẹ̀lú etí ara wa.

LORD, there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

21 Pẹ̀lú ta ni ó dàbí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ Israẹli—orílẹ̀-èdè kan ní ayé, tí Ọlọ́run jáde lọ láti ra àwọn ènìyàn kan padà fún ara rẹ̀, àti láti lè ṣe orúkọ fún ara à rẹ, àti láti ṣe ohun ńlá àti ọwọ́ ìyanu nípa lílé àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè kúrò níwájú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀, ẹni tí ó gbàlà láti Ejibiti?

And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem to be a people for himself, to make a name for yourself by great and awesome deeds, by driving out from before your people, whom you redeemed out of Egypt, a nation and its gods?

22 Ìwọ ṣe àwọn ènìyàn rẹ Israẹli ní tìrẹ láéláé ìwọ Olúwa sì ti di Ọlọ́run wọn.

And you made your people Israel for yourself to be your people forever; and you, LORD, became their God.

23 “Nísinsin yìí, Olúwa, jẹ́ kí ìlérí tí ìwọ ti ṣe fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ àti ilé rẹ̀ di fífi ìdí múlẹ̀ títí láé. Ṣe gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti ṣe ìlérí.

Now, LORD, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, be established forever, and do as you have spoken.

24 Kí ó lè di fífi ìdí múlẹ̀ àti kí orúkọ rẹ di gbígbéga títí láé. Nígbà náà ni àwọn ọkùnrin yóò wí pé, ‘Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, ni Ọlọ́run Israẹli.’ Ilé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ Dafidi sì ni a ó fi ìdí rẹ̀ múlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ.

Let your name be established and magnified forever, saying, 'The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel,' and the house of David your servant is established before you.

25 “Ìwọ, Ọlọ́run mi, ti fihan ìránṣẹ́ rẹ pé, ìwọ yóò kọ́ ilé fún un. Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ti ní ìgboyà láti gbàdúrà sí ọ.

For you have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house. Therefore your servant has found courage to pray before you.

26 Olúwa, ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run. Ìwọ ti fi ìlérí dídára yìí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.

Now, LORD, you are God, and have promised this good thing to your servant.

27 Nísinsin yìí ó ti tẹ́ ọ lọ́rùn láti bùkún ilé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ kí ó lè tẹ̀síwájú ní ojú rẹ; nítorí ìwọ, Olúwa, ti bùkún un, a ó sì bùkún un títí láéláé.”

Now it has pleased you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, LORD, have blessed, and it is blessed forever."
