وَكَانَ لَمَّا سَكَنَ دَاوُدُ فِي بَيْتِهِ، قَالَ دَاوُدُ لِنَاثَانَ ٱلنَّبِيِّ: «هَأَنَذَا سَاكِنٌ فِي بَيْتٍ مِنْ أَرْزٍ، وَتَابُوتُ عَهْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ تَحْتَ شُقَقٍ!» ١ 1
Now it came to pass, as David sat in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Lo, I dwell in a house of cedars, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD [remaineth] under curtains.
فَقَالَ نَاثَانُ لِدَاوُدَ: «ٱفْعَلْ كُلَّ مَا فِي قَلْبِكَ لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ مَعَكَ». ٢ 2
Then Nathan said to David, Do all that [is] in thy heart; for God [is] with thee.
وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ كَانَ كَلَامُ ٱللهِ إِلَى نَاثَانَ قَائِلًا: ٣ 3
And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,
«ٱذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي: هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتَ لَا تَبْنِي لِي بَيْتًا لِلسُّكْنَى، ٤ 4
Go and tell David my servant, Thus saith the LORD, Thou shalt not build me a house to dwell in:
لِأَنِّي لَمْ أَسْكُنْ فِي بَيْتٍ مُنْذُ يَوْمِ أَصْعَدْتُ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ، بَلْ سِرْتُ مِنْ خَيْمَةٍ إِلَى خَيْمَةٍ، وَمِنْ مَسْكَنٍ إِلَى مَسْكَنٍ. ٥ 5
For I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel to this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from [one] tabernacle [to another].
فِي كُلِّ مَا سِرْتُ مَعَ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، هَلْ تَكَلَّمْتُ بِكَلِمَةٍ مَعَ أَحَدِ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ أَمَرْتُهُمْ أَنْ يَرْعَوْا شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَبْنُوا لِي بَيْتًا مِنْ أَرْزٍ؟ ٦ 6
Wherever I have walked with all Israel, have I spoken a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, Why have ye not built me a house of cedars?
وَٱلْآنَ فَهَكَذَا تَقُولُ لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ: هَكَذَا قَالَ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ: أَنَا أَخَذْتُكَ مِنَ ٱلْمَرْبَضِ، مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلْغَنَمِ لِتَكُونَ رَئِيسًا عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٧ 7
Now therefore thus shalt thou say to my servant David, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I took thee from the sheep-cote, [even] from following the sheep, that thou shouldst be ruler over my people Israel:
وَكُنْتُ مَعَكَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهْتَ، وَقَرَضْتُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ، وَعَمِلْتُ لَكَ ٱسْمًا كَٱسْمِ ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ. ٨ 8
And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast walked, and have cut off all thy enemies from before thee, and have made thee a name like the name of the great men that [are] in the earth.
وَعَيَّنْتُ مَكَانًا لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ وَغَرَسْتُهُ فَسَكَنَ فِي مَكَانِهِ، وَلَا يَضْطَرِبُ بَعْدُ، وَلَا يَعُودُ بَنُو ٱلْإِثْمِ يَبْلُونَهُ كَمَا فِي ٱلْأَوَّلِ، ٩ 9
Also I will ordain a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, and they shall dwell in their place, and shall be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the beginning.
وَمُنْذُ ٱلْأَيَّامِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهَا أَقَمْتُ قُضَاةً عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَأَذْلَلْتُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ. وَأُخْبِرُكَ أَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يَبْنِي لَكَ بَيْتًا. ١٠ 10
And since the time that I commanded judges [to be] over my people Israel. Moreover, I will subdue all thy enemies. Furthermore, I tell thee that the LORD will build thee a house.
وَيَكُونُ مَتَى كَمَلَتْ أَيَّامُكَ لِتَذْهَبَ مَعَ آبَائِكَ، أَنِّي أُقِيمُ بَعْدَكَ نَسْلَكَ ٱلَّذِي يَكُونُ مِنْ بَنِيكَ وَأُثَبِّتُ مَمْلَكَتَهُ. ١١ 11
And it shall come to pass, when thy days shall be ended that thou must go [to be] with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, who shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
هُوَ يَبْنِي لِي بَيْتًا وَأَنَا أُثَبِّتُ كُرْسِيَّهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. ١٢ 12
He shall build me a house, and I will establish his throne for ever.
أَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُ أَبًا وَهُوَ يَكُونُ لِيَ ٱبْنًا، وَلَا أَنْزِعُ رَحْمَتِي عَنْهُ كَمَا نَزَعْتُهَا عَنِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ قَبْلَكَ. ١٣ 13
I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took [it] from [him] that was before thee:
وَأُقِيمُهُ فِي بَيْتِي وَمَلَكُوتِي إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَيَكُونُ كُرْسِيُّهُ ثَابِتًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». ١٤ 14
But I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be established for evermore.
فَحَسَبَ جَمِيعِ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ وَحَسَبَ كُلِّ هَذِهِ ٱلرُّؤْيَا كَذَلِكَ كَلَّمَ نَاثَانُ دَاوُدَ. ١٥ 15
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.
فَدَخَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ وَجَلَسَ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَالَ: «مَنْ أَنَا أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْإِلَهُ، وَمَاذَا بَيْتِي حَتَّى أَوْصَلْتَنِي إِلَى هُنَا؟ ١٦ 16
And David the king came and sat before the LORD, and said, Who [am] I, O LORD God, and what [is] my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
وَقَلَّ هَذَا فِي عَيْنَيْكَ يَا ٱللهُ فَتَكَلَّمْتَ عَنْ بَيْتِ عَبْدِكَ إِلَى زَمَانٍ طَوِيلٍ، وَنَظَرْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنَ ٱلْعَلَاءِ كَعَادَةِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ ٱلْإِلَهُ. ١٧ 17
And [yet] this was a small thing in thy eyes, O God; for thou hast [also] spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, O LORD God.
فَمَاذَا يَزِيدُ دَاوُدُ بَعْدُ لَكَ لِأَجْلِ إِكْرَامِ عَبْدِكَ وَأَنْتَ قَدْ عَرَفْتَ عَبْدَكَ؟ ١٨ 18
What can David [speak] more to thee for the honor of thy servant? for thou knowest thy servant.
يَارَبُّ، مِنْ أَجْلِ عَبْدِكَ وَحَسَبَ قَلْبِكَ قَدْ فَعَلْتَ كُلَّ هَذِهِ ٱلْعَظَائِمِ، لِتَظْهَرَ جَمِيعُ ٱلْعَظَائِمِ ١٩ 19
O LORD, for thy servant's sake, and according to thy own heart, hast thou done all this greatness, in making known all [these] great things.
يَارَبُّ، لَيْسَ مِثْلُكَ وَلَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا سَمِعْنَاهُ بِآذَانِنَا. ٢٠ 20
O LORD, [there] is none like thee, neither [is there any] God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
وَأَيَّةُ أُمَّةٍ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِثْلُ شَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي سَارَ ٱللهُ لِيَفْتَدِيَهُ لِنَفْسِهِ شَعْبًا، لِتَجْعَلَ لَكَ ٱسْمَ عَظَائِمَ وَمَخَاوِفَ بِطَرْدِكَ أُمَمًا مِنْ أَمَامِ شَعْبِكَ ٱلَّذِي ٱفْتَدَيْتَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ. ٢١ 21
And what one nation in the earth [is] like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem [to be] his own people, to make thee a name of greatness and terribleness, by driving out nations from before thy people, whom thou hast redeemed out of Egypt?
وَقَدْ جَعَلْتَ شَعْبَكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِنَفْسِكَ شَعْبًا إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، وَأَنْتَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ صِرْتَ لَهُمْ إِلَهًا. ٢٢ 22
For thy people Israel didst thou make thy own people for ever; and thou, LORD, becamest their God.
وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ، لِيَثْبُتْ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ ٱلْكَلَامُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمْتَ بِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِكَ وَعَنْ بَيْتِهِ وَٱفْعَلْ كَمَا نَطَقْتَ. ٢٣ 23
Therefore now, LORD, Let the thing that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.
وَلْيَثْبُتْ وَيَتَعَظَّمِ ٱسْمُكَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ، فَيُقَالَ: رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. هُوَ ٱللهُ لِإِسْرَائِيلَ وَلْيَثْبُتْ بَيْتُ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِكَ أَمَامَكَ. ٢٤ 24
Let it even be established, that thy name may be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts [is] the God of Israel, [even] a God to Israel: and [let] the house of David thy servant [be] established before thee.
لِأَنَّكَ يَا إِلَهِي قَدْ أَعْلَنْتَ لِعَبْدِكَ أَنَّكَ تَبْنِي لَهُ بَيْتًا، لِذَلِكَ وَجَدَ عَبْدُكَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ أَمَامَكَ. ٢٥ 25
For thou, O my God, hast told thy servant that thou wilt build him a house: therefore thy servant hath found [in his heart] to pray before thee.
وَٱلْآنَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنْتَ هُوَ ٱللهُ، وَقَدْ وَعَدْتَ عَبْدَكَ بِهَذَا ٱلْخَيْرِ. ٢٦ 26
And now, LORD, thou art God, and hast promised this goodness to thy servant:
وَٱلْآنَ قَدِ ٱرْتَضَيْتَ بِأَنْ تُبَارِكَ بَيْتَ عَبْدِكَ لِيَكُونَ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ أَمَامَكَ، لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ يَارَبُّ قَدْ بَارَكْتَ وَهُوَ مُبَارَكٌ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ». ٢٧ 27
Now therefore let it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be before thee for ever: for thou blessest, O LORD, and [it shall be] blessed for ever.
