1 Chronicles 17
1 Now when David was dwelling in his house, he said to Nathan the prophet: Behold I dwell in a house of cedar: and the ark of the covenant of the Lord is under skins.
Daawit erga masaraa isaa keessa jiraachuu jalqabee booddee Naataan raajichaan, “Ani kunoo mana birbirsaan ijaarame keessan jiraadha; taabonni kakuu Waaqayyoo garuu dunkaana keessa jiraata” jedhe.
2 And Nathan said to David: Do all that is in thy heart: for God is with thee.
Naataan immoo deebisee Daawitiin, “Waaqni si wajjin jiraatii waan garaa keetti yaadde kam iyyuu godhi” jedhe.
3 Now that night the word of God came to Nathan, saying:
Halkan sana garuu dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara Naataan dhufe:
4 Go, and speak to David my servant: Thus saith the Lord: Thou shalt not build me a house to dwell in.
“Dhaqiitii akkana jedhii garbicha koo Daawititti himi; ‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Kan mana ani keessa jiraadhu naaf ijaaru siʼi miti.
5 For I have not remained in a house from the time that I brought up Israel, to this day: but I have been always changing places in a tabernacle, and in a tent,
Ani gaafan Israaʼelin Gibxii baasee jalqabee hamma harʼaatti mana keessa hin jiraanne. Ani dunkaana tokkoo irraa gara isa kaaniitti, iddoo bultii tokkoo irraa gara iddoo bultii isa kaaniitti darbaan ture.
6 Abiding with all Israel. Did I ever speak to any one, of all the judges of Israel, whom I charged to feed my people, saying: Why have you not built me a house of cedar?
Ani iddoon Israaʼeloota hunda wajjin naannaʼaa ture kamitti iyyuu hooggantoota akka isaan saba koo eeganiif ajaje keessaa nama tokkoon iyyuu, “Isin maaliif mana birbirsaa naaf hin ijaarre?” jedhee beekaa?’
7 Now therefore thus shalt thou say to my servant David: Thus saith the Lord of hosts: I took thee from the pastures, from following the flock, that thou shouldst be ruler of my people Israel.
“Egaa amma akkana jedhii garbicha koo Daawititti himi; ‘Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu akkana jedha: Ani akka ati bulchaa saba koo Israaʼel taatuuf, lafa tikaatii fi bushaayee faana deemuu keessaan si fudhadhe.
8 And I have been with thee whithersoever thou hast gone: and have slain all thy enemies before thee, and have made thee a name like that of one of the great ones that are renowned in the earth.
Ani lafa ati dhaqxe hundatti si wajjinin ture; diinota kee hundas fuula kee duraa balleesseera. Ammas ani maqaa kee akkuma maqaa namoota addunyaa irratti akka malee gurguddaa taʼanii nan godha.
9 And I have given a place to my people Israel: they shall be planted, and shall dwell therein, and shall be moved no more, neither shall the children of iniquity waste them, as at the beginning,
Ani akka isaan mana ofii isaanii qabaatanii fi akka isaan siʼachi hin raafamneef saba koo Israaʼeliif lafa kennee isaan nan dhaaba. Namoonni hamoon akka jalqabatti godhan sana deebiʼanii isaan hin cunqursan;
10 Since the days that I gave judges to my people Israel, and have humbled all thy enemies. And I declare to thee, that the Lord will build thee a house.
akka yeroo ani saba koo Israaʼel irratti abbootii murtii muudee as godhan sana illee hin godhan; ani diinota kee hundas siifin garboomsa. “‘Ani akka Waaqayyo mana siif ijaaru sittin hima:
11 And when thou shalt have ended thy days to go to thy fathers, I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons: and I will establish his kingdom.
Yommuu barri jireenya keetii dhumee ati abbootii keetti dabalamuuf dhaqxutti ani akka inni iddoo kee buʼuuf sanyii kee keessaa, ilmaan kee keessaa tokko nan kaasa; mootummaa isaa illee jabeessee nan dhaaba.
12 He shall build me a house, and I will establish his throne for ever.
Kan mana naaf ijaaru isa; anis teessoo isaa bara baraan jabeessee nan dhaaba.
13 I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son: and I will not take my mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee.
Ani isaaf abbaa nan taʼa; innis ilma naa taʼa. Ani akka namicha si dura ture sana irraa fudhadhe, jaalala koo gonkumaa isa irraa hin fudhadhu.
14 But I will settle him in my house, and in my kingdom for ever: and his throne shall be most firm for ever.
Ani mana koo fi mootummaa koo irratti bara baraan isa nan muuda; teessoon isaas bara baraan jabaatee ni dhaabata.’”
15 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.
Naataanis dubbii mulʼata kanaa hunda Daawititti hime.
16 And king David came and sat before the Lord, and said: Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that thou shouldst give such things to me?
Ergasii Daawit mootichi ol seenee fuula Waaqayyoo dura taaʼee akkana jedhe: “Yaa Waaqayyo, yaa Waaqi, kan ati asiin na geesse, ani eenyu? Maatiin koos maali?
17 But even this hath seemed little in thy sight, and therefore thou hast also spoken concerning the house of thy servant for the time to come: and best made me remarkable above all men, O Lord God.
Yaa Waaqi, ati akka waan wanni kun fuula kee duratti quubsaa hin taʼiniitti ilaaltee waaʼee mana garbicha keetii kan fuul duraa illee dubbatte. Yaa Waaqayyo, yaa Waaqi, ati akka waan ani nama hunda caalaa kabajamaa taʼeetti na ilaalte.
18 What can David add more, seeing thou hast thus glorified thy servant, and known him?
“Waan ati garbicha kee ulfeessiteef Daawit kana caalaa maal jechuu dandaʼa? Ati garbicha kee ni beektaatii.
19 O Lord, for thy servant’s sake, according to thy own heart, thou hast shewn all this magnificence, and wouldst have all the great things to be known.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ati sababii garbicha keetiitii fi akkuma fedhii keetiitti waan guddaa kana goote; akka waadaawwan gurguddaan kunneenis beekaman gooteerta.
20 O Lord there is none like thee: and there is no other God beside thee, of all whom we have heard of with our ears.
“Yaa Waaqayyo, kan akka keetii tokko iyyuu hin jiru; akka nu gurruma keenyaan dhageenyetti si malee Waaqni biraa hin jiru.
21 For what other nation is there upon earth like thy people Israel, whom God went to deliver, and make a people for himself, and by his greatness and terrors cast out nations before their face whom he had delivered out of Egypt?
Sabni akka saba kee Israaʼel kan Waaqni saba lafa irra jiraatu keessaa saba tokkicha ofii isaatiif furachuu fi ofii keetiitiifis maqaa tolfachuuf jettee fuula saba keetii duraa saboota ariʼuudhaan dinqiiwwan gurguddaa fi sodaachisaa hojjechuudhaaf baʼe, kan ati Gibxii baafte sanaa tokko iyyuu jiraa?
22 And thou hast made thy people Israel to be thy own people for ever, and thou, O Lord, art become their God.
Ati saba kee Israaʼelin bara baraan kan ofii keetii goote; Yaa Waaqayyo, ati Waaqa isaanii taateerta.
23 Now therefore, O Lord, let the word which thou hast spoken to thy servant, and concerning his house, be established for ever, and do as thou hast said.
“Ammas yaa Waaqayyo, waadaan ati garbicha keetii fi mana isaatiif galte sun bara baraan jabaatee haa dhaabatu. Ati akkuma waadaa galte sana raawwadhu;
24 And let thy name remain and be magnified for ever: and let it be said: The Lord of hosts is God of Israel, and the house of David his servant remaineth before him.
kunis akka maqaan kee jabaatee dhaabatee, bara baraanis guddaa taʼuuf. Kana irratti namoonni, ‘Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, Israaʼel irratti Waaqa; inni Waaqa Israaʼel!’ ni jedhu. Manni garbicha kee Daawitis fuula kee duratti jabaatee ni dhaabata.
25 For thou, O Lord my God, hast revealed to the ear of thy servant, that thou wilt build him a house: and therefore thy servant hath found confidence to pray before thee.
“Yaa Waaqa ko, ati akka mana isaaf ijaartu garbicha keetti mulʼifteerta. Kanaafuu garbichi kee si kadhachuudhaaf ija jabina argateera.
26 And now O Lord, thou art God: and thou hast promised to thy servant such great benefits.
Yaa Waaqayyo, ati Waaqa! Ati waan gaarii kana garbicha keetiif waadaa galteerta.
27 And thou hast begun to bless the house of thy servant, that it may be always before thee: for seeing thou blessest it, O Lord, it shall be blessed for ever.
Akka manni isaa bara baraan jabaattee fuula kee dura dhaabatuuf ammas mana garbicha keetii eebbisuun fedhii kee taʼeera; yaa Waaqayyo sababii ati isa eebbifteef, inni bara baraan ni eebbifama.”
