1 Thusimbu 17
1 David chu ama inpia ana umlai in Themgao Nathan chu akou in akom a hitin asei e, “Keimala Cedar thing a kisa innom tah a kacheng in, ahivang in Pakai kitepna thingkong vang chu ponbuh a kisa mai mai noi a ana kikoi in ahi.”
And it came to pass as David lived in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Behold, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the Lord [is] under [curtains] of skins.
2 Nathan in adonbut in, “Nalung a um nagel chan chu bollin ajeh chu Pathen in naumpi nai.”
And Nathan said to David, Do all that is in your heart; for God [is] with you.
3 Ahivang in, hicheni jantah chun Pathen in Nathan kom a anasei e,
And it came to pass in that night, that the word of the Lord came to Nathan, [saying],
4 “Chenlang kasohpa David kom a gahiltan nangma hi keima umna ding munsem ding chu nahipoi’tin ana sei e.”
Go and say to David my servant, Thus said the Lord, You shall not build me a house for me to dwell in it.
5 Keiman Egypt gam a kon Israel te kahin pui doh nikho apat tunigei in ka insung a kacheng kha hih laiye, Hiti chun ponbuh a kisong houbuh munkhat a kon mun chom chom a kana ki chon le jin ahi.
For I have not lived in a house from the day that I brought up Israel until this day, but I have been in a tabernacle and a tent,
6 Keiman Israel mite toh kilhon khom ding le kamite kelngoi ching a pang lamkai ho kom a jong Cedar thing a kisa in eisah pih diu in jong kana sei kha hyh e.
in all places through which I have gone with all Israel: did I ever speak to [any] one tribe of Israel whom I commanded to feed my people, saying, [Why is it] that you have not built me a house of cedar?
7 Tun nangma chen lang kalhachapa David kom a hitin gasei tan, “Van Pakai thanei chungnung in hitin aphong doh e, keiman nangma hi hamhing lah a kelngoi ching a napan na’a kon kapuidoh a kami Israel te chung a lamkai dia kapan sah ding nahi, ati.
And now thus shall you say to my servant David, Thus says the Lord Almighty, I took you from the sheepfold, from following the flocks, to be a ruler over my people Israel:
8 Chule keiman nangma nache namun jousea kalhonpi jing a, nangma masang a namelmate jouse jong kasuh gam jeng ding leiset chung a mi minthang ho bang a namin kakithan sah ding ahi.
and I was with you in all places whither you went, and I destroyed all your enemies from before you, and I made for you a name according to the name of the great ones that are upon the earth.
9 Chule kamite Israel te ding a achen nadiu munjong kapeh ding dettah a lungmongsel a cheng uva koiman jong asuh ling thei loudiu ahi. Namdang ten jong masang a banga asuh mang kit loudiu ahi.
And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and I will plant him, and he shall dwell by himself, and shall no longer be anxious; and the son of iniquity shall no longer afflict him, as at the beginning,
10 Keiman aphat dungjui a kamite Israel te chung a Lamkai vaihom ding kapan sah jing ding chule namel mateu aboncha kasuh gam ding chuche kal a jong Pakai in naleng gam sung u phatthei aboh ding ahi.
and from the days when I appointed judges over my people Israel. Also I have humbled all your enemies, and I will increase you, and the Lord will build you a house.
11 Nahinkho abei nung a napu napate kom a dia nache nungteng jong le keiman nadalhah nason nachilhah te lah a nachapate khat pen kadopsang ding ahi chule aleng gam jong lentah a kaphudoh peh ding ahi.
And it shall come to pass when your days shall be fulfilled, and you shall sleep with your fathers, that I will raise up your seed after you, which shall be of your bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
12 Amapa chun keima ding a houin khat eisah peh ding chule keiman alenggam laltouna chu aitih chan a kaphudet jing ding ahi.
He shall build me a house, and I will set up his throne for ever.
13 Hiche mipa ding a chu keima hi apa kahi a ama chu kachapa hiding ahi. Nangma masang a mipa chung a kangailutna kana lahdoh bang a, ama chung a hi kanung lah doh lou ding ahi.
I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son: and my mercy will I not withdraw from him, as I withdrew [it] from them that were before you.
14 Keiman ama kainsung a le kagamsung a leng a kapan sah ding chule alenggam laltou na chu atonsot geiya kaphudet pih a longlouva umjing ding ahi,” ati.
And I will establish him in my house and in his kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be set up for ever.
15 Hiti chun Nathan ahung kile in Pakai in amusah thil hojouse chu David kom a ahung seipeh tan ahi.
According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so spoke Nathan to David.
16 Chuin David alut in Pakai angsung a atao vin hitin asei e, “O Pakai Pathen keima hi koi kahi a chule kainsung mite hi ipi hija hichan gei a neihin pui peh jing u ham?
And king David came and sat before the Lord, and said, Who am I, O Lord God? and what [is] my house, that you have loved me for ever?
17 Tun thil hicheng jouse kal val in jong O Pathen, nalhachapa keima khunung a insung thudol khanggui sotpi hunglhung ding jong neisei doh pih in ahi.
And these things were little in your sight, O God: you have also spoken concerning the house of your servant for a long time to come, and you have looked upon me as a man looks upon his fellow, and have exalted me, O Lord God.
18 Hitabang a nalhachapa neijabol na hi nangma kom a ipi kasei be nahlai ding ham, nalhachapa keima itobang kahi la neihet soh kei ahitai.
What shall David do more towards you to glorify [you]? and you know your servant.
19 Nalhachapa keima neigel khoh najal le nalungel lam tah bang in kachung a thil loupi tampi mite muthei jin nabol doh in ahi,
And you have wrought all this greatness according to your heart.
20 O Pakai, nang tabang koima dang aumpoi, nangma tabang Pathen dang jong kanei pouve,
O Lord, there is none like you, and there is no God beside you, according to all things which we have heard with our ears.
21 Nami Israel nam mite tabang leisetna koidang um am? O Pathen, nangma tah in namite asoh chan nagam a kon in nana huhdoh jeh in namin akithang in ahi, nangman thil kidang tah nabol in namite masang a ding ho jong nana del jam in ahi.
Neither is there another nation upon the earth [such] as your people Israel, whereas God led him in the way, to redeem a people for himself, to make for himself a great and glorious name, to cast out nations from before your people, whom you redeemed out of Egypt.
22 Nangman Israel mite chu nangma mite dih tah mong in nana lheng doh in Pakai nangma chu a Pathen u nahitan ahi,
And you have appointed your people Israel as a people to yourself for ever; and you, Lord, did become a God to them.
23 O Pakai tunvang keima nalhacha kahitai, keima le ka insungmi chung chang thua nakitepna bang in bol jeng tan chule hiche kitepna hi aitih chan a ding hita hen.
And now, Lord, let the word which you spoke to your servant, and concerning his house, be confirmed for ever, and do you as you have spoken.
24 Nangma min kiphut doh henlang mijousen tonsot'in jana pecheh hen chule Pakai thanei chungnung pen Israel Pathen chu Israel Pathen ahi mong e tia kisei ding, nalhachapa David insung jeng jong nangma angsung a phudet a um ding ahi.
And let your name [be] established and magnified for ever, [men] saying, Lord, Lord, Almighty God of Israel: and [let] the house of your servant David [be] established before you.
25 O ka Pathen keima hi nangma ang a ngamtah a hungtao a kahi, ajeh chu nalhachapa keima hi ka in ding neisah peh a lenggam khat neitundoh peh ding chu kicheh tah in neimu sah tai.
For you, O Lord my God, have revealed to the ear of your servant that you will build him a house; therefore your servant has found a willingness to pray before you.
26 O Pakai nangma bou Pathen nahi chule hitabang thilpha tampihi nalhachapa kei ding in kitepna nanei e.
And now, Lord, you yourself are God, and you have spoken these good things concerning your servant.
27 Tunjong nalhachapa insung phatthei naboh a hichu nalhachapa a ding a aitih gei a nangma masang a umjing ding ahi. Ajeh chu O Pakai nangma phathei boh chu ipi hijong le phattheiboh chang jing ding ahi.
And now you have begun to bless the house of your servant, so that it should continue for ever before you: for you, Lord, have blessed [it], and do you bless [it] for ever.
