| 2 Samuel 7 Text (WEB)
|
- It happened, when the king lived in his house, and Yahweh had given him rest from all his enemies all around,
- 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."
- Nathan said to the king, "Go, do all that is in your heart; for Yahweh is with you."
- It happened the same night, that the word of Yahweh came to Nathan, saying,
- "Go and tell my servant David, 'Thus says Yahweh, "Shall you build me a house for me to dwell in?
- 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.
- In all places in which I have walked with all the children of Israel, did I say a word to any of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people Israel, saying, 'Why have you not built me a house of cedar?'"'
- Now therefore you shall tell my servant David this, 'Thus says Yahweh of Armies, "I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people, over Israel.
- 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 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,
- and as from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover Yahweh tells you that Yahweh will make you a house.
- When your days are fulfilled, and you shall sleep with your fathers, I will set up your seed after you, who shall proceed out of your bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
- He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
- I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men;
- but my loving kindness shall not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.
- Your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before you. Your throne shall be established forever."'"
- According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.
- Then David the king went in, and sat before Yahweh; and he said, "Who am I, Lord Yahweh, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?
- This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord Yahweh; but you have spoken also of your servant's house for a great while to come; and this after the way of men, Lord Yahweh!
- What more can David say to you? For you know your servant, Lord Yahweh.
- For your word's sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.
- Therefore you are great, Yahweh God. For there is none like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
- What one nation in the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make him a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeem to you out of Egypt, [from] the nations and their gods?
- You established for yourself your people Israel to be a people to you forever; and you, Yahweh, became their God.
- Now, Yahweh God, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and do as you have spoken.
- Let your name be magnified forever, saying, 'Yahweh of Armies is God over Israel; and the house of your servant David shall be established before you.'
- For you, Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, 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.
- "Now, O Lord Yahweh, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.
- Now therefore let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord Yahweh, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing."

- ויהי כי־ישב המלך בביתו ויהוה הניח־לו מסביב מכל־איביו׃
- ויאמר המלך אל־נתן הנביא ראה נא אנכי יושב בבית ארזים וארון האלהים ישב בתוך היריעה׃
- ויאמר נתן אל־המלך כל אשר בלבבך לך עשה כי יהוה עמך׃ ס
- ויהי בלילה ההוא ויהי דבר־יהוה אל־נתן לאמר׃
- לך ואמרת אל־עבדי אל־דוד כה אמר יהוה האתה תבנה־לי בית לשבתי׃
- כי לא ישבתי בבית למיום העלתי את־בני ישראל ממצרים ועד היום הזה ואהיה מתהלך באהל ובמשכן׃
- בכל אשר־התהלכתי בכל־בני ישראל הדבר דברתי את־אחד שבטי ישראל אשר צויתי לרעות את־עמי את־ישראל לאמר למה לא־בניתם לי בית ארזים׃
- ועתה כה־תאמר לעבדי לדוד כה אמר יהוה צבאות אני לקחתיך מן־הנוה מאחר הצאן להיות נגיד על־עמי על־ישראל׃
- ואהיה עמך בכל אשר הלכת ואכרתה את־כל־איביך מפניך ועשתי לך שם גדול כשם הגדלים אשר בארץ׃
- ושמתי מקום לעמי לישראל ונטעתיו ושכן תחתיו ולא ירגז עוד ולא־יסיפו בני־עולה לענותו כאשר בראשונה׃
- ולמן־היום אשר צויתי שפטים על־עמי ישראל והניחתי לך מכל־איביך והגיד לך יהוה כי־בית יעשה־לך יהוה׃
- כי ימלאו ימיך ושכבת את־אבתיך והקימתי את־זרעך אחריך אשר יצא ממעיך והכינתי את־ממלכתו׃
- הוא יבנה־בית לשמי וכננתי את־כסא ממלכתו עד־עולם׃
- אני אהיה־לו לאב והוא יהיה־לי לבן אשר בהעותו והכחתיו בשבט אנשים ובנגעי בני אדם׃
- וחסדי לא־יסור ממנו כאשר הסרתי מעם שאול אשר הסרתי מלפניך׃
- ונאמן ביתך וממלכתך עד־עולם לפניך כסאך יהיה נכון עד־עולם׃
- ככל הדברים האלה וככל החזיון הזה כן דבר נתן אל־דוד׃ ס
- ויבא המלך דוד וישב לפני יהוה ויאמר מי אנכי אדני יהוה ומי ביתי כי הביאתני עד־הלם׃
- ותקטן עוד זאת בעיניך אדני יהוה ותדבר גם אל־בית־עבדך למרחוק וזאת תורת האדם אדני יהוה׃
- ומה־יוסיף דוד עוד לדבר אליך ואתה ידעת את־עבדך אדני יהוה׃
- בעבור דברך וכלבך עשית את כל־הגדולה הזאת להודיע את־עבדך׃
- על־כן גדלת אדני יהוה כי־אין כמוך ואין אלהים זולתך בכל אשר־שמענו באזנינו׃
- ומי כעמך כישראל גוי אחד בארץ אשר הלכו־אלהים לפדות־לו לעם ולשום לו שם ולעשות לכם הגדולה ונראות לארצך מפני עמך אשר פדית לך ממצרים גוים ואלהיו׃
- ותכוןן לך את־עמך ישראל לך לעם עד־עולם ואתה יהוה היית להם לאלהים׃ ס
- ועתה יהוה אלהים הדבר אשר דברת על־עבדך ועל־ביתו הקם עד־עולם ועשה כאשר דברת׃
- ויגדל שמך עד־עולם לאמר יהוה צבאות אלהים על־ישראל ובית עבדך דוד יהיה נכון לפניך׃
- כי־אתה יהוה צבאות אלהי ישראל גליתה את־אזן עבדך לאמר בית אבנה־לך על־כן מצא עבדך את־לבו להתפלל אליך את־התפלה הזאת׃
- ועתה אדני יהוה אתה־הוא האלהים ודבריך יהיו אמת ותדבר אל־עבדך את־הטובה הזאת׃
- ועתה הואל וברך את־בית עבדך להיות לעולם לפניך כי־אתה אדני יהוה דברת ומברכתך יברך בית־עבדך לעולם׃ ף

| 2 Samuel 7 Text (Latin)
|
- Factum est autem cum sedisset rex in domo sua, et Dominus dedisset ei requiem undique ab universis inimicis suis,
- dixit ad Nathan prophetam : Videsne quod ego habitem in domo cedrina, et arca Dei posita sit in medio pellium ?
- Dixitque Nathan ad regem : Omne quod est in corde tuo, vade, fac : quia Dominus tecum est.
- Factum est autem in illa nocte : et ecce sermo Domini ad Nathan, dicens :
- Vade, et loquere ad servum meum David : Hæc dicit Dominus : Numquid tu ædificabis mihi domum ad habitandum ?
- Neque enim habitavi in domo ex die illa, qua eduxi filios Israël de terra Ægypti, usque in diem hanc : sed ambulabam in tabernaculo, et in tentorio.
- Per cuncta loca, quæ transivi cum omnibus filiis Israël, numquid loquens locutus sum ad unam de tribubus Israël, cui præcepi ut pasceret populum meum Israël, dicens : Quare non ædificastis mihi domum cedrinam ?
- Et nunc hæc dices servo meo David : Hæc dicit Dominus exercituum : Ego tuli te de pascuis sequentem greges, ut esses dux super populum meum Israël :
- et fui tecum in omnibus ubicumque ambulasti, et interfeci universos inimicos tuos a facie tua : fecique tibi nomen grande, juxta nomen magnorum qui sunt in terra.
- Et ponam locum populo meo Israël, et plantabo eum, et habitabit sub eo, et non turbabitur amplius : nec addent filii iniquitatis ut affligant eum sicut prius,
- ex die qua constitui judices super populum meum Israël : et requiem dabo tibi ab omnibus inimicis tuis : prædicitque tibi Dominus, quod domum faciat tibi Dominus.
- Cumque completi fuerint dies tui, et dormieris cum patribus tuis, suscitabo semen tuum post te, quod egredietur de utero tuo, et firmabo regnum ejus.
- Ipse ædificabit domum nomini meo, et stabiliam thronum regni ejus usque in sempiternum.
- Ego ero ei in patrem, et ipse erit mihi in filium : qui si inique aliquid gesserit, arguam eum in virga virorum, et in plagis filiorum hominum.
- Misericordiam autem meam non auferam ab eo, sicut abstuli a Saul, quem amovi a facie mea.
- Et fidelis erit domus tua, et regnum tuum usque in æternum ante faciem tuam, et thronus tuus erit firmus jugiter.
- Secundum omnia verba hæc, et juxta universam visionem istam, sic locutus est Nathan ad David.
- Ingressus est autem rex David, et sedit coram Domino, et dixit : Quis ego sum, Domine Deus, et quæ domus mea, quia adduxisti me hucusque ?
- Sed et hoc parum visum est in conspectu tuo Domine Deus, nisi loquereris etiam de domo servi tui in longinquum : ista est enim lex Adam, Domine Deus.
- Quid ergo addere poterit adhuc David, ut loquatur ad te ? tu enim scis servum tuum, Domine Deus.
- Propter verbum tuum, et secundum cor tuum, fecisti omnia magnalia hæc, ita ut notum faceres servo tuo.
- Idcirco magnificatus es, Domine Deus, quia non est similis tui, neque est Deus extra te, in omnibus quæ audivimus auribus nostris.
- Quæ est autem, ut populus tuus Israël, gens in terra, propter quam ivit Deus, ut redimeret eam sibi in populum, et poneret sibi nomen, faceretque eis magnalia, et horribilia super terram, a facie populi tui, quem redemisti tibi ex Ægypto, gentem, et deum ejus.
- Firmasti enim tibi populum tuum Israël in populum sempiternum : et tu Domine Deus factus es eis in Deum.
- Nunc ergo Domine Deus, verbum, quod locutus es super servum tuum, et super domum ejus, suscita in sempiternum : et fac sicut locutus es,
- ut magnificetur nomen tuum usque in sempiternum, atque dicatur : Dominus exercituum, Deus super Israël. Et domus servi tui David erit stabilita coram Domino,
- quia tu Domine exercituum Deus Israël revelasti aurem servi tui, dicens : Domum ædificabo tibi : propterea invenit servus tuus cor suum ut oraret te oratione hac.
- Nunc ergo Domine Deus, tu es Deus, et verba tua erunt vera : locutus es enim ad servum tuum bona hæc.
- Incipe ergo, et benedic domui servi tui, ut sit in sempiternum coram te : quia tu Domine Deus locutus es, et benedictione tua benedicetur domus servi tui in sempiternum.

| 2 Samuel 7 Text (KJV)
|
- And it came to pass, when the king sat in his house, and the LORD had given him rest round about from all his enemies;
- That the king said unto Nathan the prophet, See now, I dwell in an house of cedar, but the ark of God dwelleth within curtains.
- And Nathan said to the king, Go, do all that is in thine heart; for the LORD is with thee.
- And it came to pass that night, that the word of the LORD came unto Nathan, saying,
- Go and tell my servant David, Thus saith the LORD, Shalt thou build me an house for me to dwell in?
- Whereas I have not dwelt in any house since the time that I brought up the children of Israel out of Egypt, even to this day, but have walked in a tent and in a tabernacle.
- In all the places wherein I have walked with all the children of Israel spake I a word with any of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to feed my people Israel, saying, Why build ye not me an house of cedar?
- Now therefore so shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheep, to be ruler over my people, over Israel:
- And I was with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies out of thy sight, and have made thee a great name, like unto the name of the great men that are in the earth.
- Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime,
- And as since the time that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel, and have caused thee to rest from all thine enemies. Also the LORD telleth thee that he will make thee an house.
- And when thy days be fulfilled, and thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will establish his kingdom.
- He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.
- I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:
- But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before thee.
- And thine house and thy kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne shall be established for ever.
- According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
- Then went king David in, and sat before the LORD, and he said, Who am I, O Lord GOD? and what is my house, that thou hast brought me hitherto?
- And this was yet a small thing in thy sight, O Lord GOD; but thou hast spoken also of thy servant's house for a great while to come. And is this the manner of man, O Lord GOD?
- And what can David say more unto thee? for thou, Lord GOD, knowest thy servant.
- For thy word's sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou done all these great things, to make thy servant know them.
- Wherefore thou art great, O LORD God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God beside thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
- And what one nation in the earth is like thy people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem for a people to himself, and to make him a name, and to do for you great things and terrible, for thy land, before thy people, which thou redeemedst to thee from Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
- For thou hast confirmed to thyself thy people Israel to be a people unto thee for ever: and thou, LORD, art become their God.
- And now, O LORD God, the word that thou hast spoken concerning thy servant, and concerning his house, establish it for ever, and do as thou hast said.
- And let thy name be magnified for ever, saying, The LORD of hosts is the God over Israel: and let the house of thy servant David be established before thee.
- For thou, O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed to thy servant, saying, I will build thee an house: therefore hath thy servant found in his heart to pray this prayer unto thee.
- And now, O Lord GOD, thou art that God, and thy words be true, and thou hast promised this goodness unto thy servant:
- Therefore now let 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 it: and with thy blessing let the house of thy servant be blessed for ever.
