1 Chronicles 17

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	LXX
1 After David had taken up residence in his house, he said to Nathan the prophet, "See, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD dwells under tentcloth."	1 και εγενετο ως κατωκησεν δαυιδ εν οικω αυτου και ειπεν δαυιδ προς ναθαν τον προφητην ιδου εγω κατοικω εν οικω κεδρινω και η κιβωτος διαθηκης κυριου υποκατω δερρεων
2 Nathan replied to David, "Do, therefore, whatever you desire, for God is with you."	2 και ειπεν ναθαν προς δαυιδ παν το εν τη ψυχη σου ποιει οτι ο θεος μετα σου
3 But that same night the word of God came to Nathan:	3 και εγενετο εν τη νυκτι εκεινη και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς ναθαν λεγων
4 "Go and tell my servant David, Thus says the LORD: It is not you who are to build a house for me to dwell in.	4 πορευου και ειπον προς δαυιδ τον παιδα μου ουτως ειπεν κυριος ου συ οικοδομησεις μοι οικον του κατοικησαι με εν αυτω
5 For I have never dwelt in a house, from the time when I led Israel onward, even to this day, but I have been lodging in tent or pavilion	5 οτι ου κατωκησα εν οικω απο της ημερας ης ανηγαγον τον ισραηλ εως της ημερας ταυτης και ημην εν σκηνη και εν καταλυματι
6 as long as I have wandered about with all of Israel. Did I ever say a word to any of the judges of Israel whom I commanded to guide my people, such as, 'Why have you not built me a house of cedar?'	6 εν πασιν οις διηλθον εν παντι ισραηλ ει λαλων ελαλησα προς μιαν φυλην ισραηλ του ποιμαινειν τον λαον μου λεγων οτι ουκ ωκοδομηκατε μοι οικον κεδρινον
7 Therefore, tell my servant David, Thus says the LORD of hosts: I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, that you might become ruler over my people Israel.	7 και νυν ουτως ερεις τω δουλω μου δαυιδ ταδε λεγει κυριος παντοκρατωρ ελαβον σε εκ της μανδρας εξοπισθεν των ποιμνιων του ειναι εις ηγουμενον επι τον λαον μου ισραηλ
8 I was with you wherever you went, and I cut down all your enemies before you. I will make your name great like that of the greatest on the earth.	8 και ημην μετα σου εν πασιν οις επορευθης και εξωλεθρευσα παντας τους εχθρους σου απο προσωπου σου και εποιησα σοι ονομα κατα το ονομα των μεγαλων των επι της γης
9 I will assign a place for my people Israel and I will plant them in it to dwell there henceforth undisturbed; nor shall wicked men ever again oppress them, as they did at first,	9 και θησομαι τοπον τω λαω μου ισραηλ και καταφυτευσω αυτον και κατασκηνωσει καθ' εαυτον και ου μεριμνησει ετι και ου προσθησει αδικια του ταπεινωσαι αυτον καθως απ' αρχης
10 and during all the time when I appointed judges over my people Israel. And I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover, I declare to you that I, the LORD, will build you a house;	10 και αφ' ημερων ων εταξα κριτας επι τον λαον μου ισραηλ και εταπεινωσα απαντας τους εχθρους σου και αυξησω σε και οικον οικοδομησει σοι κυριος
11 so that when your days have been completed and you must join your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you who will be one of your own sons, and I will establish his kingdom.	11 και εσται οταν 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 He it is who shall build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.	12 αυτος οικοδομησει μοι οικον και ανορθωσω τον θρονον αυτου εως αιωνος
13 I will be a father to him, and he shall be a son to me, and I will not withdraw my favor from him as I withdrew it from him who preceded you;	13 εγω εσομαι αυτω εις πατερα και αυτος εσται μοι εις υιον και το ελεος μου ουκ αποστησω απ' αυτου ως απεστησα απο των οντων εμπροσθεν σου
14 but I will maintain him in my house and in my kingdom forever, and his throne shall be firmly established forever."	14 και πιστωσω αυτον εν οικω μου και εν βασιλεια αυτου εως αιωνος και ο θρονος αυτου εσται ανωρθωμενος εως αιωνος
15 All these words and this whole vision Nathan related exactly to David.	15 κατα παντας τους λογους τουτους και κατα πασαν την ορασιν ταυτην ουτως ελαλησεν ναθαν προς δαυιδ
16 Then David came in and sat in the LORD'S presence, saying: "Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my family, that you should have brought me as far as I have come?	16 και ηλθεν ο βασιλευς δαυιδ και εκαθισεν απεναντι κυριου και ειπεν τις ειμι εγω κυριε ο θεος και τις ο οικος μου οτι ηγαπησας με εως αιωνος
17 And yet, even this you now consider too little, O God! For you have made a promise regarding your servant's family reaching into the distant future, and you have looked on me as henceforth the most notable of men, O LORD God.	17 και εσμικρυνθη ταυτα ενωπιον σου ο θεος και ελαλησας επι τον οικον του παιδος σου εκ μακρων και επειδες με ως ορασις ανθρωπου και υψωσας με κυριε ο θεος
18 What more can David say to you? You know your servant.	18 τι προσθησει ετι δαυιδ προς σε του δοξασαι και συ τον δουλον σου οιδας
19 O LORD, for your servant's sake and in keeping with your purpose, you have done this great thing.	19 και κατα την καρδιαν σου εποιησας την πασαν μεγαλωσυνην
20 O LORD, there is no one like you and there is no God but you, just as we have always understood.	20 κυριε ουκ εστιν ομοιος σοι και ουκ εστιν πλην σου κατα παντα οσα ηκουσαμεν εν ωσιν ημων
21 "Is there, like your people Israel, whom you redeemed from Egypt, another nation on earth whom a god went to redeem as his people? You won for yourself a name for great and awesome deeds by driving out the nations before your people.	21 και ουκ εστιν ως ο λαος σου ισραηλ εθνος ετι επι της γης ως ωδηγησεν αυτον ο θεος του λυτρωσασθαι εαυτω λαον του θεσθαι εαυτω ονομα μεγα και επιφανες του εκβαλειν απο προσωπου λαου σου ους ελυτρωσω εξ αιγυπτου εθνη
22 You made your people Israel your own forever, and you, O LORD, became their God.	22 και εδωκας τον λαον σου ισραηλ σεαυτω λαον εως αιωνος και συ κυριε αυτοις εις θεον
23 Therefore, O LORD, may the promise that you have uttered concerning your servant and his house remain firm forever. Bring about what you have promised,	23 και νυν κυριε ο λογος σου ον ελαλησας προς τον παιδα σου και επι τον οικον αυτου πιστωθητω εως αιωνος
24 that your renown as LORD of hosts, God of Israel, may be great and abide forever, while the house of David, your servant, is established in your presence.	24 λεγοντων κυριε κυριε παντοκρατωρ θεος ισραηλ και ο οικος δαυιδ παιδος σου ανωρθωμενος εναντιον σου
25 "Because you, O my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house, your servant has made bold to pray before you.	25 οτι συ κυριε ηνοιξας το ους του παιδος σου του οικοδομησαι αυτω οικον δια τουτο ευρεν ο παις σου του προσευξασθαι κατα προσωπον σου
26 Since you, O LORD, are truly God and have promised this good thing to your servant,	26 και νυν κυριε συ ει αυτος ο θεος και ελαλησας επι τον δουλον σου τα αγαθα ταυτα
27 and since you have deigned to bless the house of your servant, so that it will remain forever--since it is you, O LORD, who blessed it, it is blessed forever."	27 και νυν ηρξω του ευλογησαι τον οικον του παιδος σου του ειναι εις τον αιωνα εναντιον σου οτι συ κυριε ευλογησας και ευλογησον εις τον αιωνα
