2 Samuel 7

1 It happened, when the king lived in his house, and Jehovah had given him rest from all his enemies all around,

A kad car sjeðaše kod kuæe svoje, i Gospod mu dade mir svuda unaokolo od svijeh neprijatelja njegovijeh,

2 that the king said to Nathan the prophet, "See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwells within curtains."

Reèe car Natanu proroku: vidi, ja stojim u kuæi od kedrova drveta, a kovèeg Božji stoji pod zavjesima.

3 Nathan said to the king, "Go, do all that is in your heart; for Jehovah is with you."

A Natan reèe caru: šta ti je god u srcu, idi, èini, jer je Gospod s tobom.

4 It happened the same night, that the word of Jehovah came to Nathan, saying,

Ali onu noæ doðe rijeè Gospodnja k Natanu govoreæi:

5 "Go and tell my servant David, 'Thus says Jehovah, "Shall you build me a house for me to dwell in?

Idi i reci sluzi mojemu Davidu: ovako veli Gospod: ti li æeš mi naèiniti kuæu da u njoj nastavam?

6 For I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have moved around in a tent and in a tabernacle.

Kad nijesam nastavao u kuæi otkad izvedoh sinove Izrailjeve iz Misira do danas, nego sam hodio u šatoru i u naslonu,

7 In all places in which I have walked throughout Israel, did I say a word to any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people Israel, saying, 'Why have you not built me a house of cedar?'"'

Kuda sam god hodio sa svijem sinovima Izrailjevim, jesam li jednu rijeè rekao kome od sudija Izrailjevijeh, kojima zapovijedah da pasu narod moj Izrailja, i kazao: zašto mi ne naèinite kuæe od kedra?

8 Now therefore you shall tell my servant David this, 'Thus says Jehovah of hosts, "I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel.

Ovako dakle reci Davidu sluzi mojemu: ovako veli Gospod nad vojskama: ja te uzeh od tora, od ovaca, da budeš voð narodu mojemu, Izrailju;

9 I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a great name, like the name of the great ones who are in the earth.

I bjeh s tobom kuda si god hodio, i istrijebih sve neprijatelje tvoje ispred tebe, i stekoh ti ime veliko, kao što je ime velikijeh ljudi koji su na zemlji.

10 I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be moved no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as at the first,

I odrediæu mjesto narodu svojemu Izrailju, i posadiæu ga, te æe nastavati u svom mjestu, i neæe se više pretresati, niti æe ih više muèiti nepravednici kao prije,

11 and from the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover Jehovah tells you that he will build you a house.

I od onoga dana kad postavih sudije nad narodom svojim Izrailjem; i smiriæu te od svijeh neprijatelja tvojih. Jošte ti javlja Gospod da æe ti Gospod naèiniti kuæu.

12 And it will come about when your days are fulfilled, and you sleep with your fathers, that I will raise up your descendant after you, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.

Kad se navrše dani tvoji, i poèineš kod otaca svojih, podignuæu sjeme tvoje nakon tebe, koje æe izaæi iz utrobe tvoje, i utvrdiæu carstvo njegovo.

13 He will build a house for my name, and I will establish his throne forever.

On æe sazidati dom imenu mojemu, i utvrdiæu prijesto carstva njegova dovijeka.

14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with a human rod, and with the stripes from human beings;

Ja æu mu biti otac, i on æe mi biti sin; ako uèini što zlo, karaæu ga prutom ljudskim i udarcima sinova èovjeèijih.

15 but my loving kindness I will not take from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.

Ali milost moja neæe se ukloniti od njega kao što sam je uklonio od Saula, kojega uklonih ispred tebe.

16 And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me, and your throne shall be established forever."'"

Nego æe tvrd biti dom tvoj i carstvo tvoje dovijeka pred tobom, i prijesto æe tvoj stajati dovijeka.

17 According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.

Po svijem ovijem rijeèima i po svoj ovoj utvari kaza Natan Davidu.

18 Then king David went in and sat before Jehovah and said, "Who am I, Lord Jehovah, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?

Tada doðe car David i stade pred Gospodom, i reèe: ko sam ja, Gospode, Gospode, i šta je moj dom, te si me doveo dovde?

19 This was a small thing in your eyes, Lord Jehovah, and you have spoken of your servant's house for a great while to come, and you have let me look upon the generation of humankind to come, Lord Jehovah.

Pa i to ti se još èini malo, Gospode, Gospode, nego si govorio i za dom sluge svojega na dugo vremena. Je li to zakon èovjeèji, Gospode, Gospode!

20 And what more can David add to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? For you know your servant, Jehovah.

Ali šta æe jošte David da ti govori? ta ti znaš slugu svojega, Gospode, Gospode!

21 For your servant's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.

Radi rijeèi svoje i po srcu svojemu uèinio si sve ove velike stvari obznanjujuæi ih sluzi svojemu.

22 Therefore you are great, Lord Jehovah. For there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

Zato si velik, Gospode Bože, nema takoga kakav si ti; i nema Boga osim tebe, po svemu što èusmo svojim ušima.

23 And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem to be a people for himself, and to make a name for yourself, and to do great and awesome deeds by driving out before your people, whom you redeemed for yourself from Egypt, a nation and its gods?

Jer koji je narod na zemlji kao tvoj narod Izrailj? kojega je radi Bog išao da ga iskupi da mu bude narod i da steèe sebi ime i da vam uèini velika i strašna djela u zemlji tvojoj, pred narodom tvojim, koji si iskupio sebi iz Misira, od naroda i bogova njihovijeh.

24 And you established your people Israel for yourself to be your people forever; and you, Jehovah, became their God.

Jer si utvrdio sebi narod svoj Izrailja da ti bude narod dovijeka; a ti si im, Gospode, Bog.

25 Now, Lord Jehovah, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and do as you have spoken.

I tako, Gospode Bože, rijeè koju si obrekao sluzi svojemu i domu njegovu, potvrdi zasvagda, i uèini kako si rekao.

26 Let your name be magnified forever, saying, 'Jehovah of hosts is the God of Israel,' and the house of your servant David shall be established before you.

Neka se velièa ime tvoje dovijeka, da se govori: Gospod je nad vojskama Bog nad Izrailjem; i dom sluge tvojega Davida neka stoji tvrdo pred tobom.

27 For you have revealed to your servant, saying, 'I will build you a house.' Therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray this prayer to you.

Jer si ti, Gospode nad vojskama, Bože Izrailjev, javio sluzi svojemu govoreæi: dom æu sazidati tebi. Zato sluga tvoj naðe u srcu svojem da ti se pomoli ovom molitvom.

28 "Now, O Lord Jehovah, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.

Tako, Gospode, Gospode, ti si Bog, i rijeèi su tvoje istina; ti si ovo dobro obrekao sluzi svojemu.

29 Now therefore let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord Jehovah, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing."

Budi dakle voljan i blagoslovi dom sluge svojega da bude dovijeka pred tobom; jer si ti, Gospode, rekao, i tvojim æe blagoslovom biti blagosloven dom sluge tvojega dovijeka.
