| 1 και εγενετο οτε εκαθισεν ο βασιλευς εν τω οικω αυτου και κυριος κατεκληρονομησεν αυτον κυκλω απο παντων των εχθρων αυτου των κυκλω | 1 Now when the king dwelt in his house, and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies round about, |
| 2 και ειπεν ο βασιλευς προς ναθαν τον προφητην ιδου δη εγω κατοικω εν οικω κεδρινω και η κιβωτος του θεου καθηται εν μεσω της σκηνης | 2 the king said to Nathan the prophet, "See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwells in a tent." |
| 3 και ειπεν ναθαν προς τον βασιλεα παντα οσα αν εν τη καρδια σου βαδιζε και ποιει οτι κυριος μετα σου | 3 And Nathan said to the king, "Go, do all that is in your heart; for the LORD is with you." |
| 4 και εγενετο τη νυκτι εκεινη και εγενετο ρημα κυριου προς ναθαν λεγων | 4 But that same night the word of the LORD came to Nathan, |
| 5 πορευου και ειπον προς τον δουλον μου δαυιδ ταδε λεγει κυριος ου συ οικοδομησεις μοι οικον του κατοικησαι με | 5 "Go and tell my servant David, 'Thus says the LORD: Would you build me a house to dwell in? |
| 6 οτι ου κατωκηκα εν οικω αφ' ης ημερας ανηγαγον εξ αιγυπτου τους υιους ισραηλ εως της ημερας ταυτης και ημην εμπεριπατων εν καταλυματι και εν σκηνη | 6 I have not dwelt in a house since the day I brought up the people of Israel from Egypt to this day, but I have been moving about in a tent for my dwelling. |
| 7 εν πασιν οις διηλθον εν παντι ισραηλ ει λαλων ελαλησα προς μιαν φυλην του ισραηλ ω ενετειλαμην ποιμαινειν τον λαον μου ισραηλ λεγων τι οτι ουκ ωκοδομηκατε μοι οικον κεδρινον | 7 In all places where I have moved with all the people of Israel, did I speak a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to shepherd my people Israel, saying, "Why have you not built me a house of cedar?"' |
| 8 και νυν ταδε ερεις τω δουλω μου δαυιδ ταδε λεγει κυριος παντοκρατωρ ελαβον σε εκ της μανδρας των προβατων του ειναι σε εις ηγουμενον επι τον λαον μου επι τον ισραηλ | 8 Now therefore thus you shall say to my servant David, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel; |
| 9 και ημην μετα σου εν πασιν οις επορευου και εξωλεθρευσα παντας τους εχθρους σου απο προσωπου σου και εποιησα σε ονομαστον κατα το ονομα των μεγαλων των επι της γης | 9 and I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you; and I will make for you a great name, like the name of the great ones of the earth. |
| 10 και θησομαι τοπον τω λαω μου τω ισραηλ και καταφυτευσω αυτον και κατασκηνωσει καθ' εαυτον και ου μεριμνησει ουκετι και ου προσθησει υιος αδικιας του ταπεινωσαι αυτον καθως απ' αρχης | 10 And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disturbed no more; and violent men shall afflict them no more, as formerly, |
| 11 απο των ημερων ων εταξα κριτας επι τον λαον μου ισραηλ και αναπαυσω σε απο παντων των εχθρων σου και απαγγελει σοι κυριος οτι οικον οικοδομησεις αυτω | 11 from the time that I appointed judges over my people Israel; and I will give you rest from all your enemies. Moreover the LORD declares to you that the LORD will make you a house. |
| 12 και εσται εαν πληρωθωσιν αι ημεραι σου και κοιμηθηση μετα των πατερων σου και αναστησω το σπερμα σου μετα σε ος εσται εκ της κοιλιας σου και ετοιμασω την βασιλειαν αυτου | 12 When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come forth from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. |
| 13 αυτος οικοδομησει μοι οικον τω ονοματι μου και ανορθωσω τον θρονον αυτου εως εις τον αιωνα | 13 He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. |
| 14 εγω εσομαι αυτω εις πατερα και αυτος εσται μοι εις υιον και εαν ελθη η αδικια αυτου και ελεγξω αυτον εν ραβδω ανδρων και εν αφαις υιων ανθρωπων | 14 I will be his father, and he shall be my son. When he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, with the stripes of the sons of men; |
| 15 το δε ελεος μου ουκ αποστησω απ' αυτου καθως απεστησα αφ' ων απεστησα εκ προσωπου μου | 15 but I will not take my steadfast love from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away from before you. |
| 16 και πιστωθησεται ο οικος αυτου και η βασιλεια αυτου εως αιωνος ενωπιον εμου και ο θρονος αυτου εσται ανωρθωμενος εις τον αιωνα | 16 And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure for ever before me; your throne shall be established for ever.'" |
| 17 κατα παντας τους λογους τουτους και κατα πασαν την ορασιν ταυτην ουτως ελαλησεν ναθαν προς δαυιδ | 17 In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, Nathan spoke to David. |
| 18 και εισηλθεν ο βασιλευς δαυιδ και εκαθισεν ενωπιον κυριου και ειπεν τις ειμι εγω κυριε μου κυριε και τις ο οικος μου οτι ηγαπηκας με εως τουτων | 18 Then King David went in and sat before the LORD, and said, "Who am I, O Lord GOD, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me thus far? |
| 19 και κατεσμικρυνθη μικρον ενωπιον σου κυριε μου κυριε και ελαλησας υπερ του οικου του δουλου σου εις μακραν ουτος δε ο νομος του ανθρωπου κυριε μου κυριε | 19 And yet this was a small thing in thy eyes, O Lord GOD; thou hast spoken also of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast shown me future generations, O Lord GOD! |
| 20 και τι προσθησει δαυιδ ετι του λαλησαι προς σε και νυν συ οιδας τον δουλον σου κυριε μου κυριε | 20 And what more can David say to thee? For thou knowest thy servant, O Lord GOD! |
| 21 δια τον λογον σου πεποιηκας και κατα την καρδιαν σου εποιησας πασαν την μεγαλωσυνην ταυτην γνωρισαι τω δουλω σου | 21 Because of thy promise, and according to thy own heart, thou hast wrought all this greatness, to make thy servant know it. |
| 22 ενεκεν του μεγαλυναι σε κυριε μου κυριε οτι ουκ εστιν ως συ και ουκ εστιν θεος πλην σου εν πασιν οις ηκουσαμεν εν τοις ωσιν ημων | 22 Therefore thou art great, O LORD God; for there is none like thee, and there is no God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. |
| 23 και τις ως ο λαος σου ισραηλ εθνος αλλο εν τη γη ως ωδηγησεν αυτον ο θεος του λυτρωσασθαι αυτω λαον του θεσθαι σε ονομα του ποιησαι μεγαλωσυνην και επιφανειαν του εκβαλειν σε εκ προσωπου του λαου σου ου ελυτρωσω σεαυτω εξ αιγυπτου εθνη και σκηνωματα | 23 What other nation on earth is like thy people Israel, whom God went to redeem to be his people, making himself a name, and doing for them great and terrible things, by driving out before his people a nation and its gods? |
| 24 και ητοιμασας σεαυτω τον λαον σου ισραηλ λαον εως αιωνος και συ κυριε εγενου αυτοις εις θεον | 24 And thou didst establish for thyself thy people Israel to be thy people for ever; and thou, O LORD, didst become their God. |
| 25 και νυν κυριε μου κυριε το ρημα ο ελαλησας περι του δουλου σου και του οικου αυτου πιστωσον εως αιωνος κυριε παντοκρατωρ θεε του ισραηλ και νυν καθως ελαλησας | 25 And now, O LORD God, confirm for ever the word which thou hast spoken concerning thy servant and concerning his house, and do as thou hast spoken; |
| 26 μεγαλυνθειη το ονομα σου εως αιωνος | 26 and thy name will be magnified for ever, saying, 'The LORD of hosts is God over Israel,' and the house of thy servant David will be established before thee. |
| 27 κυριε παντοκρατωρ θεος ισραηλ απεκαλυψας το ωτιον του δουλου σου λεγων οικον οικοδομησω σοι δια τουτο ευρεν ο δουλος σου την καρδιαν εαυτου του προσευξασθαι προς σε την προσευχην ταυτην | 27 For thou, O LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, hast made this revelation to thy servant, saying, 'I will build you a house'; therefore thy servant has found courage to pray this prayer to thee. |
| 28 και νυν κυριε μου κυριε συ ει ο θεος και οι λογοι σου εσονται αληθινοι και ελαλησας υπερ του δουλου σου τα αγαθα ταυτα | 28 And now, O Lord GOD, thou art God, and thy words are true, and thou hast promised this good thing to thy servant; |
| 29 και νυν αρξαι και ευλογησον τον οικον του δουλου σου του ειναι εις τον αιωνα ενωπιον σου οτι συ ει κυριε μου κυριε ελαλησας και απο της ευλογιας σου ευλογηθησεται ο οικος του δουλου σου εις τον αιωνα | 29 now therefore may it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue for ever before thee; for thou, O Lord GOD, hast spoken, and with thy blessing shall the house of thy servant be blessed for ever." |
