2 Samuel 7
1 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí ọba ń gbé ní ilé rẹ̀, tí Olúwa sì fún un ní ìsinmi yíkákiri kúrò lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ̀.
And it cometh to pass, when the king sat in his house, and Jehovah hath given rest to him round about, from all his enemies,
2 Ọba sì wí fún Natani wòlíì pé, “Sá wò ó, èmi ń gbé inú ilẹ̀ tí a fi kedari kọ́, ṣùgbọ́n àpótí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run ń gbé inú ibi tí a fi aṣọ gé.”
that the king saith unto Nathan the prophet, 'See, I pray thee, I am dwelling in a house of cedars, and the ark of God is dwelling in the midst of the curtain.'
3 Natani sì wí fún ọba pé, “Lọ, kí o sì ṣe gbogbo èyí tí ó wà ní ọkàn rẹ, nítorí pé Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ.”
And Nathan saith unto the king, 'All that [is] in thine heart — go, do, for Jehovah [is] with thee.'
4 Ó sì ṣe ní òru náà, ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tọ Natani wá pé,
And it cometh to pass in that night, that the word of Jehovah is unto Nathan, saying,
5 “Lọ, sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ mi, fún Dafidi pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, ìwọ ó ha kọ́ ilé fún mi tí èmi yóò gbé.
'Go, and thou hast said unto My servant, unto David, Thus said Jehovah, Dost thou build for Me a house for My dwelling in?
6 Nítorí pé, èmi kò ì ti gbé inú ilé kan láti ọjọ́ tí èmi ti mú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli gòkè ti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, títí di òní yìí, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ti ń rìn nínú àgọ́, fún ibùgbé mi.
for I have not dwelt in a house even from the day of My bringing up the sons of Israel out of Egypt, even unto this day, and am walking up and down in a tent and in a tabernacle.
7 Ní ibi gbogbo tí èmi ti ń rìn pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, ǹjẹ́ èmi ti bá ọ̀kan nínú ẹ̀yà Israẹli, tí èmi pa àṣẹ fún láti máa bọ́ àwọn ènìyàn mi àní Israẹli, sọ̀rọ̀ pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò fi kedari kọ́ ilé fún mi.”’
During all [the time] that I have walked up and down among all the sons of Israel, a word have I spoken with one of the tribes of Israel which I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, 'Why have ye not built to Me a house of cedars?
8 “Ǹjẹ́, nítorí náà, báyìí ni ìwọ yóò sì wí fún ìránṣẹ́ mi àní Dafidi pé, ‘Báyìí ni Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun wí, Èmi ti mú ìwọ kúrò láti inú agbo àgùntàn wá láti má tẹ̀lé àwọn àgùntàn, mo sì fi ọ́ jẹ olórí àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní Israẹli.
and now, thus dost thou say to My servant, to David: 'Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, I have taken thee from the comely place, from after the flock, to be leader over My people, over Israel;
9 Èmi sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ níbikíbi tí ìwọ ń lọ, èmi sá à gé gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ kúrò níwájú rẹ, èmi sì ti sọ orúkọ rẹ di ńlá, gẹ́gẹ́ bí orúkọ àwọn ènìyàn ńlá tí ó wà ní ayé.
and I am with thee whithersoever thou hast gone, and I cut off all thine enemies from thy presence, and have made for thee a great name, as the name of the great ones who [are] in the earth,
10 Èmi ó sì yan ibìkan fún àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní Israẹli, èmi ó sì gbìn wọ́n, wọn ó sì má gbé bí ibùjókòó tiwọn, wọn kì yóò sì sípò padà mọ́; àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn búburú kì yóò sì pọ́n wọn lójúmọ́, bí ìgbà àtijọ́.
and I have appointed a place for My people, for Israel, and have planted it, and it hath tabernacled in its place, and it is not troubled any more, and the sons of perverseness do not add to afflict it any more, as in the beginning,
11 Àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí àkókò ìgbà tí èmi ti fi àṣẹ fún àwọn onídàájọ́ lórí àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní Israẹli, èmi fi ìsinmi fún ọ lọ́wọ́ gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ. “‘Olúwa sì wí fún ọ pé Olúwa yóò kọ ilé kan fún ọ.
even from the day that I appointed judges over My people Israel; and I have given rest to thee from all thine enemies, and Jehovah hath declared to thee that Jehovah doth make for thee a house.
12 Nígbà tí ọjọ́ rẹ bá pé, tí ìwọ ó sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ, èmi yóò sì gbé irú-ọmọ rẹ lékè lẹ́yìn rẹ, èyí tí ó ti inú rẹ jáde wá, èmi yóò sì fi ìdí ìjọba rẹ kalẹ̀.
'When thy days are full, and thou hast lain with thy fathers, then I have raised up thy seed after thee which goeth out from thy bowels, and have established his kingdom;
13 Òun ó sì kọ́ ilé fún orúkọ mi, èmi yóò sì fi ìdí ìjọba rẹ kalẹ̀ láéláé.
He doth build a house for My Name, and I have established the throne of his kingdom unto the age.
14 Èmi ó máa ṣe baba fún un, òun yóò sì máa jẹ́ ọmọ mi. Bí òun bá dẹ́ṣẹ̀, èmi yóò sì fi ọ̀pá ènìyàn nà án, àti ìnà àwọn ọmọ ènìyàn.
I am to him for a father, and he is to Me for a son; whom in his dealings perversely I have even reproved with a rod of men, and with strokes of the sons of Adam,
15 Ṣùgbọ́n àánú mi kì yóò yípadà kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí èmi ti mú un kúrò lọ́dọ̀ Saulu, tí èmi ti mú kúrò níwájú rẹ.
and My kindness doth not turn aside from him, as I turned it aside from Saul, whom I turned aside from before thee,
16 A ó sì fi ìdílé rẹ àti ìjọba rẹ múlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ títí láé, a ó sì fi ìdí ìtẹ́ rẹ múlẹ̀ títí láé.’”
and stedfast [is] thy house and thy kingdom unto the age before thee, thy throne is established unto the age.'
17 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo ìran yìí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Natani sì sọ fún Dafidi.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spake Nathan unto David.
18 Dafidi ọba sì wọlé lọ, ó sì dúró níwájú Olúwa, ó sì wí pé, “Olúwa Olódùmarè, ta ni èmi, àti kí sì ni ìdílé mi, tí ìwọ fi mú mi di ìsinsin yìí?
And king David cometh in and sitteth before Jehovah, and saith, 'Who [am] I, Lord Jehovah? and what my house, that Thou hast brought me hitherto?
19 Nǹkan kékeré ni èyí sá à jásí lójú rẹ, Olúwa Olódùmarè; ìwọ sì ti sọ nípa ìdílé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ pẹ̀lú ní ti àkókò tí o jìnnà. Èyí ha ṣe ìwà ènìyàn bí, Olúwa Olódùmarè?
And yet this [is] little in Thine eyes, Lord Jehovah, and Thou dost speak also concerning the house of Thy servant afar off; and this [is] the law of the Man, Lord Jehovah.
20 “Àti kín ní ó tún kù tí Dafidi ìbá tún máa wí fún ọ? Ìwọ, Olúwa Olódùmarè mọ̀ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.
And what doth David add more to speak unto Thee? and Thou, Thou hast known Thy servant, Lord Jehovah.
21 Nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ, àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ ọkàn rẹ, ni ìwọ ṣe ṣe gbogbo nǹkan ńlá wọ̀nyí, kí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ lè mọ̀.
Because of Thy word, and according to Thy heart, Thou hast done all this greatness, to cause Thy servant to know [it].
22 “Ìwọ sì tóbi, Olúwa Olódùmarè! Kò sì sí ẹni tí ó dàbí rẹ, kò sì sí Ọlọ́run kan lẹ́yìn rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí àwa fi etí wá gbọ́.
Therefore Thou hast been great, Jehovah God, for there is none like Thee, and there is no God save Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
23 Orílẹ̀-èdè kan wo ni ó sì ń bẹ ní ayé tí ó dàbí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, àní Israẹli, àwọn tí Ọlọ́run lọ rà padà láti sọ wọ́n di ènìyàn rẹ̀, àti láti sọ wọ́n ní orúkọ, àti láti ṣe nǹkan ńlá fún un yín, àti nǹkan ìyanu fún ilé rẹ̀, níwájú àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, tí ìwọ ti rà padà fún ara rẹ láti Ejibiti wá, àní àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè àti àwọn òrìṣà wọn.
'And who [is] as Thy people, as Israel — one nation in the earth, whom God hath gone to redeem to Him for a people, and to make for Him a name — and to do for you the greatness — even fearful things for Thy land, at the presence of Thy people, whom Thou hast redeemed to Thee out of Egypt — [among the] nations and their gods?
24 Ìwọ sì fi ìdí àwọn ènìyàn rẹ, àní Israẹli kalẹ̀ fún ara rẹ láti sọ wọ́n di ènìyàn rẹ títí láé; ìwọ Olúwa sì wá di Ọlọ́run fún wọn.
Yea, Thou dost establish to Thee Thy people Israel, to Thee for a people unto the age, and Thou, Jehovah, hast been to them for God.
25 “Ǹjẹ́, Olúwa Ọlọ́run, jẹ́ kí ọ̀rọ̀ náà tí ìwọ sọ ní ti ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, àti ní ti ìdílé rẹ̀, kí ó dúró títí láé, kí ó sí ṣe bí ìwọ ti wí.
'And now, Jehovah God, the word which Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, establish unto the age, and do as Thou hast spoken;
26 Jẹ́ kí orúkọ rẹ ó ga títí láé, pé, ‘Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni Ọlọ́run lórí Israẹli!’ Sì jẹ́ kí a fi ìdílé Dafidi ìránṣẹ́ rẹ múlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ.
And Thy Name is great unto the age, saying, Jehovah of Hosts [is] God over Israel, and the house of Thy servant David is established before Thee,
27 “Nítorí pé ìwọ, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, Ọlọ́run Israẹli ti sọ létí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, pé, ‘Èmí ó kọ́ ilé kan fún ọ.’ Nítorí náà ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ sì ṣe ní i lọ́kàn rẹ̀ láti gbàdúrà yìí sí ọ.
For Thou, Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, Thou hast uncovered the ear of Thy servant, saying, A house I build for thee, therefore hath Thy servant found his heart to pray unto Thee this prayer;
28 Ǹjẹ́, Olúwa Olódùmarè, ìwọ ni Ọlọ́run náà, àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ sì jásí òtítọ́, ìwọ sì jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ nǹkan rere yìí fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ.
And now, Lord Jehovah, Thou [art] God Himself, and Thy words are truth, and Thou speakest unto Thy servant this goodness,
29 Ǹjẹ́, jẹ́ kí ó wù ọ́ láti bùkún ìdílé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, kí ó wà títí láé níwájú rẹ, nítorí ìwọ, Olúwa Olódùmarè, ni ó ti sọ ọ́: sì jẹ́ kí ìbùkún wà ní ìdílé ìránṣẹ́ rẹ títí láé, nípasẹ̀ ìbùkún rẹ.”
And now, begin and bless the house of Thy servant, to be unto the age before Thee, for Thou, Lord Jehovah, hast spoken, and by Thy blessing is the house of Thy servant blessed — to the age.'
