2 Samuel 7
1 Afterwarde when the King sate in his house and the Lord had giuen him rest rounde about from all his enemies,
Kad se David nastanio u svojem dvoru i kad mu je Jahve pribavio mir od svih njegovih neprijatelja unaokolo,
2 The King saide vnto Nathan the Prophet, Beholde, nowe I dwel in an house of cedar trees, and the Arke of God remayneth within the curtaines.
reče kralj proroku Natanu: “Pogledaj! Ja, evo, stojim u dvoru od cedrovine, a Kovčeg Božji stoji pod šatorom.”
3 Then Nathan sayde vnto the King, Go, and doe all that is in thine heart: for the Lord is with thee.
A Natan odgovori kralju: “Idi i čini sve što ti je na srcu jer je Jahve s tobom.”
4 And the same night the worde of the Lord came vnto Nathan, saying,
Ali još iste noći dođe Natanu ova Jahvina riječ:
5 Goe and tell my seruant Dauid, Thus saieth the Lord, Shalt thou buylde me an house for my dwelling?
“Idi i reci mome sluzi Davidu: Ovako govori Jahve: 'Zar ćeš mi ti sagraditi kuću da u njoj prebivam?
6 For I haue dwelt in no house since the time that I brought the children of Israel out of Egypt vnto this day, but haue walked in a tent and tabernacle.
Nisam nikad prebivao u kući otkako sam izveo iz Egipta sinove Izraelove pa do današnjega dana, nego sam bio lutalac pod šatorom i u prebivalištu.
7 In al the places wherein I haue walked with all the children of Israel, spake I one worde with any of the tribes of Israel when I commanded the iudges to feede my people Israel? or sayde I, Why build ye not me an house of cedar trees?
Dok sam hodio sa svim Izraelovim sinovima, jesam li ijednu riječ rekao nekomu od Izraelovih sudaca kojima sam zapovjedio da budu pastiri mojem narodu izraelskom i kazao: 'Zašto mi ne sagradite kuću od cedrovine?'
8 Nowe therefore so say vnto my seruant Dauid, Thus saieth the Lord of hostes, I tooke thee from the sheepecote following the sheepe, that thou mightest bee ruler ouer my people, ouer Israel.
Zato sad ovo reci mome sluzi Davidu: Ovako govori Jahve nad vojskama: Ja sam te doveo s pašnjaka, od ovaca i koza, da budeš knez nad mojim izraelskim narodom.
9 And I was with thee wheresoeuer thou hast walked, and haue destroyed all thine enemies out of thy sight, and haue made thee a great name, like vnto the name of the great men that are in the earth.
Bio sam s tobom kuda si god išao, iskorijenio sam sve tvoje neprijatelje pred tobom. Ja ću ti pribaviti veliko ime, kao što je velikaško ime na zemlji.
10 (Also I will appoynt a place for my people Israel, and will plant it, that they may dwell in a place of their owne, and moue no more, neither shall wicked people trouble them any more as before time,
Odredit ću prebivalište svojem izraelskom narodu, posadit ću ga da živi na svojem mjestu i da ne luta više naokolo, niti da ga zlikovci muče kao prije,
11 And since the time that I set Iudges ouer my people of Israel) and I will giue thee rest from al thine enemies: also the Lord telleth thee, that he will make thee an house.
onda kad sam odredio suce nad svojim izraelskim narodom. Ja ću mu pribaviti mir od svih njegovih neprijatelja. Jahve će te učiniti velikim. Jahve će ti podići dom.
12 And when thy daies bee fulfilled, thou shalt sleepe with thy fathers, and I wil set vp thy seede after thee, which shall proceede out of thy body, and will stablish his kingdome.
I kad se ispune tvoji dani i ti počineš kod svojih otaca, podići ću tvoga potomka nakon tebe, koji će se roditi od tvoga tijela, i utvrdit ću njegovo kraljevstvo.
13 He shall buyld an house for my Name, and I will stablish ye throne of his kingdome for euer.
On će sagraditi dom imenu mojem, a ja ću utvrditi njegovo prijestolje zauvijek.
14 I will be his father, and hee shall bee my sonne: and if he sinne, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the plagues of the children of men.
Ja ću njemu biti otac, a on će meni biti sin: ako učini što zlo, kaznit ću ga ljudskom šibom i udarcima kako ih zadaju sinovi ljudski.
15 But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I tooke it from Saul whome I haue put away before thee.
Ali svoje naklonosti neću odvratiti od njega, kao što sam je odvratio od Šaula koga sam uklonio ispred tebe.
16 And thine house shall be stablished and thy kingdome for euer before thee, euen thy throne shalbe stablished for euer.
Tvoja će kuća i tvoje kraljevstvo trajati dovijeka preda mnom, tvoje će prijestolje čvrsto stajati zasvagda.'”
17 According to all these wordes, and according to all this vision, Nathan spake thus vnto Dauid.
Natan prenese Davidu sve te riječi i cijelo viđenje.
18 Then King Dauid went in, and sate before the Lord, and sayde, Who am I, O Lord God, and what is mine house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
Nato kralj David uđe u šator i stade pred Jahvom i pomoli se: “Tko sam ja, Gospode Jahve, i što je moj dom te si me doveo dovde?
19 And this was yet a small thing in thy sight, O Lord God, therefore thou hast spoken also of thy seruants house for a great while: but doth this appertaine to man, O Lord God?
Pa i to je još premalo u tvojim očima, Gospode Jahve, te daješ svoja obećanja kući svoga sluge za daleku budućnost i gledaš na me kao na ugledna čovjeka!
20 And what can Dauid say more vnto thee? for thou, Lord God, knowest thy seruant.
Ali što bi ti David još mogao kazati, kad ti sam poznaješ svoga slugu, Gospode Jahve!
21 For thy words sake, and according to thine owne heart hast thou done all these great things, to make them knowen vnto thy seruant.
Radi svoje riječi i po svome srcu učinio si sve ovo veliko djelo, obznanivši ove veličajnosti.
22 Wherefore thou art great, O Lord God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that wee haue heard with our eares.
Zato si velik, Gospode Jahve; nema takvoga kakav si ti i nema Boga osim tebe, po svemu što smo ušima svojim čuli.
23 And what one people in the earth is like thy people, like Israel? whose God went and redeemed them to himselfe, that they might be his people, and that hee might make him a name, and do for you great things, and terrible for thy land, O Lord, euen for thy people, whome thou redeemedst to thee out of Egypt, from the nations, and their gods?
Postoji li ijedan narod na zemlji kao tvoj izraelski narod radi kojega je Bog išao da ga izbavi sebi za narod da tako stečeš sebi ime velikim i strašnim čudesima, izgoneći krivobožačka plemena pred svojim narodom koji si otkupio iz Egipta?
24 For thou hast ordeyned to thy selfe thy people Israel to be thy people for euer: and thou Lord art become their God.
Tako si učinio svoj izraelski narod svojim narodom zauvijek, a ti si mu, Jahve, postao Bogom.
25 Nowe therefore, O Lord God, confirme for euer the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy seruant and his house, and doe as thou hast sayde.
Zato sada, Gospode Jahve, ispuni zauvijek obećanje koje si dao svome sluzi i njegovu domu i učini kako si obrekao.
26 And let thy Name bee magnified for euer by them that shall say, The Lord of hostes is the God ouer Israel: and let the house of thy seruant Dauid be stablished before thee.
Neka se veliča tvoje ime zauvijek i neka se govori: Jahve nad vojskama jest Bog Izraelov, a dom sluge tvoga Davida neka stoji čvrsto pred tobom.
27 For thou, O Lord of hostes, God of Israel, hast reueiled vnto thy seruant, saying, I will build thee an house: therefore hath thy seruant bene bold to pray this prayer vnto thee.
Jer si ti, Jahve nad vojskama, Bože Izraelov, objavio svome sluzi ovo: 'Ja ću ti podići dom.' Zato je tvoj sluga smogao hrabrosti da ti se pomoli ovom molitvom.
28 Therefore now, O Lord God, (for thou art God, and thy words be true, and thou hast tolde this goodnes vnto thy seruant)
Uistinu, Gospode Jahve, ti si Bog, tvoje su riječi istinite i ti daješ ovo lijepo obećanje svome sluzi.
29 Therefore nowe let it please thee to blesse the house of thy seruant, that it may continue for euer before thee: for thou, O Lord God, hast spoken it: and let the house of thy seruant be blessed for euer, with thy blessing.
Udostoj se sada blagosloviti dom svoga sluge da ostane dovijeka pred tobom. Jer kad ti, Gospode Jahve, obrekneš i blagosloviš, kuća tvoga sluge bit će blagoslovljena zasvagda.”
