ΠΑΡΑΛΕΙΠΟΜΕΝΩΝ Α´ - 1 Cronache - Chronicles I 17

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Αφου δε εκαθησεν ο Δαβιδ εν τω οικω αυτου, ειπεν ο Δαβιδ προς Ναθαν τον προφητην, Ιδου, εγω κατοικω εν οικω κεδρινω, η δε κιβωτος της διαθηκης του Κυριου υπο παραπετασματα.	1 Now when David was living in his house, he said to the prophet Nathan: “Behold, I live in a house of cedar. But the ark of the covenant of the Lord is under tent skins.”
2 Και ειπεν ο Ναθαν προς τον Δαβιδ, Καμε παν το εν τη καρδια σου? διοτι ο Θεος ειναι μετα σου.	2 And Nathan said to David: “Do all that is in your heart. For God is with you.”
3 Και την νυκτα εκεινην εγεινε λογος του Θεου προς τον Ναθαν, λεγων,	3 And yet, that night the word of God came to Nathan, saying:
4 Υπαγε και ειπε προς τον Δαβιδ τον δουλον μου, ουτω λεγει Κυριος? Συ δεν θελεις οικοδομησει εις εμε τον οικον δια να κατοικω?	4 “Go, and speak to my servant David: Thus says the Lord: You shall not build a house for me as a dwelling place.
5 διοτι δεν κατωκησα εν οικω, αφ' ης ημερας ανεβιβασα τον Ισραηλ εξ Αιγυπτου, μεχρι της ημερας ταυτης? αλλ' ημην απο σκηνης εις σκηνην και απο κατασκηνωματος εις κατασκηνωμα.	5 For I have not stayed in a house from the time when I led out Israel, even to this day. Instead, I have been continually changing places, in a tabernacle and tent,
6 Πανταχου οπου περιεπατησα μετα παντος του Ισραηλ, ελαλησα ποτε προς τινα εκ των κριτων του Ισραηλ, τους οποιους προσεταξα να ποιμανωσι τον λαον μου, λεγων, Δια τι δεν ωκοδομησατε εις εμε οικον κεδρινον;	6 dwelling with all of Israel. When did I ever speak to any one at all, among the judges of Israel whom I placed in charge so that they might pasture my people, saying: ‘Why have you not built a house of cedar for me?’
7 Τωρα λοιπον ουτω θελεις ειπει προς τον Δαβιδ τον δουλον μου? Ουτω λεγει ο Κυριος των δυναμεων? Εγω σε ελαβον εκ της μανδρας, απο οπισθεν των προβατων, δια να ησαι ηγεμων επι τον λαον μου τον Ισραηλ?	7 And so, now you shall say this to my servant David: Thus says the Lord of hosts: I took you when you were following the flock in the pastures, so that you would be the leader of my people Israel.
8 και ημην μετα σου πανταχου οπου περιεπατησας, και εξωλοθρευσα παντας τους εχθρους σου απ' εμπροσθεν σου, και εκαμα εις σε ονομα, κατα το ονομα των μεγαλων των επι της γης.	8 And I have been with you wherever you have gone. And I have slain all your enemies before you, and I have made a name for you like one of the great ones who are celebrated upon the earth.
9 Και θελω διορισει τοπον δια τον λαον μου τον Ισραηλ, και θελω φυτευσει αυτους, και θελουσι κατοικει εν τοπω ιδιω εαυτων και δεν θελουσι μεταφερεσθαι πλεον? και οι υιοι της αδικιας δεν θελουσι καταθλιβει αυτους πλεον ως το προτερον	9 And I have given a place to my people Israel. They shall be planted, and they shall live in it, and they shall no longer be moved. Neither shall the sons of iniquity wear them away, as in the beginning,
10 και ως απο των ημερων καθ' ας κατεστησα κριτας επι τον λαον μου Ισραηλ. Και θελω ταπεινωσει παντας τους εχθρους σου. Αναγγελλω σοι ετι, οτι ο Κυριος θελει οικοδομησει οικον εις σε.	10 from the days when I gave judges to my people Israel, and I humbled all your enemies. Therefore, I announce to you that the Lord will build a house for you.
11 Και αφου πληρωθωσιν αι ημεραι σου, δια να υπαγης μετα των πατερων σου, θελω αναστησει μετα σε το σπερμα σου, το οποιον θελει εισθαι εκ των υιων σου, και θελω στερεωσει την βασιλειαν αυτου.	11 And when you will have completed your days, so that you go to your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall be from your sons. And I will establish his kingdom.
12 Αυτος θελει οικοδομησει εις εμε οικον, και θελω στερεωσει το θρονον αυτου εως αιωνος.	12 He shall build a house for me, and I will make firm his throne, even unto eternity.
13 Εγω θελω εισθαι εις αυτον πατηρ, και αυτος θελει εισθαι εις εμε υιος? και δεν θελω αφαιρεσει το ελεος μου απ' αυτου, ως αφηρεσα αυτο απ' εκεινον οστις ητο προ σου?	13 I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me. And I will not take away my mercy from him, as I took it away from the one who was before you.
14 αλλα θελω στησει αυτον εν τω οικω μου και εν τη βασιλεια μου εως του αιωνος? και ο θρονος αυτου θελει εισθαι εστερεωμενος εις τον αιωνα.	14 And I will station him in my house and in my kingdom, even forever. And his throne will be very firm, in perpetuity.”
15 Κατα παντας τουτους τους λογους και καθ' ολην ταυτην την ορασιν, ουτως ελαλησεν ο Ναθαν προς τον Δαβιδ.	15 According to all these words, and according to this entire vision, so did Nathan speak to David.
16 Τοτε εισηλθεν ο βασιλευς Δαβιδ και εκαθησεν ενωπιον του Κυριου και ειπε, Τις ειμαι εγω, Κυριε Θεε, και τις ο οικος μου, ωστε με εφερες μεχρι τουτου;	16 And when king David had departed, and had sat down before the Lord, he said: “Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my house, that you would grant such things to me?
17 Αλλα και τουτο εσταθη μικρον εις τους οφθαλμους σου, Θεε? και ελαλησας περι του οικου του δουλου σου δια μελλον μακρον, και επεβλεψας εις εμε ως εις ανθρωπον υψηλου βαθμου κατα την καταστασιν, Κυριε Θεε.	17 But even this has seemed little in your sight, and therefore you have also spoken about the house of your servant even for the future. And you have made me a spectacle above all men, O Lord God.
18 Τι δυναται να ειπη πλεον ο Δαβιδ προς σε περι της εις τον δουλον σου τιμης; διοτι συ γνωριζεις τον δουλον σου.	18 What more can David add, since you have so glorified your servant, and have known him?
19 Κυριε, χαριν του δουλου σου και κατα την καρδιαν σου εκαμες πασαν ταυτην την μεγαλωσυνην, δια να καμης γνωστα παντα ταυτα τα μεγαλεια.	19 O Lord, because of your servant, in accord with your own heart, you have brought about all this magnificence, and you have willed all these great things to be known.
20 Κυριε, δεν ειναι ομοιος σου, ουδε ειναι Θεος εκτος σου κατα παντα οσα ηκουσαμεν με τα ωτα ημων.	20 O Lord, there is no one like you. And there is no other God apart from you, out of all whom we have heard about with our ears.
21 Και τι αλλο εθνος επι της γης ειναι ως ο λαος σου ο Ισραηλ, τον οποιον ο Θεος ηλθε να εξαγοραση δια λαον εαυτου, δια να καμης εις σεαυτον ονομα μεγαλωσυνης και τρομου, εκβαλλων τα εθνη απ' εμπροσθεν του λαου σου, τον οποιον ελυτρωσας εξ Αιγυπτου;	21 For what other single nation upon earth is like your people Israel, to whom God reached out, so that he might free them, and might make a people for himself, and by his greatness and terribleness cast out the nations before the face of those whom he had freed from Egypt?
22 διοτι τον λαον σου τον Ισραηλ εκαμες λαον σεαυτου εις τον αιωνα? και συ, Κυριε, εγεινες Θεος αυτων.	22 And you have set your people Israel to be your people, even unto eternity. And you, O Lord, have become their God.
23 Και τωρα, Κυριε, ο λογος, τον οποιον ελαλησας περι του δουλου σου και περι του οικου αυτου, ας στερεωθη εις τον αιωνα, και καμε ως ελαλησας?	23 Now therefore, O Lord, let the word that you have spoken to your servant, and over his house, be confirmed in perpetuity, and do just as you have spoken.
24 και ας στερεωθη, και ας μεγαλυνθη το ονομα σου εως αιωνος, ωστε να λεγωσιν, Ο Κυριος των δυναμεων, ο Θεος του Ισραηλ, ειναι Θεος εις τον Ισραηλ? και ο οικος Δαβιδ του δουλου σου ας ηναι εστερεωμενος ενωπιον σου.	24 And may your name remain and be magnified even for all time. And let it be said: ‘The Lord of hosts is the God of Israel. And the house of his servant David remains forever before him.’
25 Διοτι συ, Θεε μου, απεκαλυψας εις τον δουλον σου οτι θελεις οικοδομησει οικον εις αυτον? δια τουτο ο δουλος σου ενεθαρρυνθη να προσευχηθη ενωπιον σου.	25 For you, O Lord my God, have revealed to the ear of your servant that you will build a house for him. And therefore your servant has found faith so that he might pray before you.
26 Και τωρα, Κυριε, συ εισαι ο Θεος, και υπεσχεθης τα αγαθα ταυτα προς τον δουλον σου.	26 Now then, O Lord, you are God. And you have spoken to your servant such great benefits.
27 Τωρα λοιπον, ευδοκησον να ευλογησης τον οικον του δουλου σου, δια να ηναι ενωπιον σου εις τον αιωνα? διοτι συ, Κυριε, ευλογησας, και θελει εισθαι ευλογημενος εις τον αιωνα.	27 And you have begun to bless the house of your servant, so that it may be always before you. For since it is you who is blessing, O Lord, it shall be blessed forever.”
