David Plans to Build a Temple
1Now it came about, when the king lived in his house, and the LORD had given him rest on every side from all his enemies, 2that the king said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I live in a house of cedar, but the ark of God remains within the tent.” 3Nathan said to the king, “Go, do all that is in your mind, for the LORD is with you.”
1王住在自己宮中,耶和華使他安靖,不被四圍的仇敵擾亂。2那時,王對先知拿單說:「看哪,我住在香柏木的宮中,神的約櫃反在幔子裏。」3拿單對王說:「你可以照你的心意而行,因為耶和華與你同在。」
God’s Covenant with David
4But in the same night, the word of the LORD came to Nathan, saying, 5“Go and say to My servant David, ‘This is what the LORD says: “Should you build Me a house for My dwelling? 6“For I have not dwelt in a house since the day I brought up the sons of Israel from Egypt, even to this day; rather, I have been moving about in a tent, that is, in a dwelling place. 7“Wherever I have gone with all the sons of Israel, did I speak a word with one of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to shepherd My people Israel, saying, ‘Why have you not built Me a house of cedar?’”’ 8“Now then, this is what you shall say to My servant David: ‘This is what the LORD of armies says: “I Myself took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, to be leader over My people Israel. 9“And I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have eliminated all your enemies from you; I will also make a great name for you, like the names of the great men who are on the earth. 10“And I will establish a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, so that they may live in their own place and not be disturbed again, nor will malicious people oppress them anymore as previously, 11even from the day that I appointed judges over My people Israel; and I will give you rest from all your enemies. The LORD also declares to you that the LORD will make a house for you. 12“When your days are finished and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up your descendant after you, who will come from you, and I will establish his kingdom. 13“He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. 14“I will be a father to him and he will be a son to Me; when he does wrong, I will discipline him with a rod of men and with strokes of sons of mankind, 15but My favor shall not depart from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from you. 16“Your house and your kingdom shall endure before Me forever; your throne shall be established forever.”’” 17In accordance with all these words and all of this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.
4當夜,耶和華的話臨到拿單說:5「你去告訴我僕人大衛,說耶和華如此說:『你豈可建造殿宇給我居住呢?6自從我領以色列人出埃及直到今日,我未曾住過殿宇,常在會幕和帳幕中行走。7凡我同以色列人所走的地方,我何曾向以色列一支派的士師,就是我吩咐牧養我民以色列的說:你們為何不給我建造香柏木的殿宇呢?』8「現在,你要告訴我僕人大衛,說萬軍之耶和華如此說:『我從羊圈中將你召來,叫你不再跟從羊群,立你作我民以色列的君。9你無論往哪裏去,我常與你同在,剪除你的一切仇敵。我必使你得大名,好像世上大大有名的人一樣。10我必為我民以色列選定一個地方,栽培他們,使他們住自己的地方,不再遷移;凶惡之子也不像從前擾害他們,11並不像我命士師治理我民以色列的時候一樣。我必使你安靖,不被一切仇敵擾亂,並且我─耶和華應許你,必為你建立家室。12你壽數滿足、與你列祖同睡的時候,我必使你的後裔接續你的位;我也必堅定他的國。13他必為我的名建造殿宇;我必堅定他的國位,直到永遠。14我要作他的父,他要作我的子;他若犯了罪,我必用人的杖責打他,用人的鞭責罰他。15但我的慈愛仍不離開他,像離開在你面前所廢棄的掃羅一樣。16你的家和你的國必在我原文是你面前永遠堅立。你的國位也必堅定,直到永遠。』」17拿單就按這一切話,照這默示,告訴大衛。
David’s Prayer
18Then David the king came in and sat before the LORD, and he said, “Who am I, Lord GOD, and who are the members of my household, that You have brought me this far? 19“And yet this was insignificant in Your eyes, Lord GOD, for You have spoken also of the house of Your servant regarding the distant future. And this is the custom of mankind, Lord GOD. 20“Again what more can David say to You? For You know Your servant, Lord GOD! 21“For the sake of Your word, and according to Your heart, You have done all this greatness, to let Your servant know. 22“For this reason You are great, Lord GOD; for there is no one like You, and there is no God except You, according to all that we have heard with our ears. 23“And what one nation on the earth is like Your people Israel, whom God went to redeem for Himself as a people, and to make a name for Himself, and to do a great thing for You and awesome things for Your land, because of Your people whom You have redeemed for Yourself from Egypt, from other nations and their gods? 24“For You have established for Yourself Your people Israel as Your own people forever, and You, LORD, have become their God. 25“Now then, LORD God, the word that You have spoken about Your servant and his house, confirm it forever, and do just as You have spoken, 26so that Your name may be great forever, by saying, ‘The LORD of armies is God over Israel’; and may the house of Your servant David be established before You. 27“For You, LORD of armies, God of Israel, have given a revelation to Your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house’; therefore Your servant has found courage to pray this prayer to You. 28“Now then, Lord GOD, You are God, and Your words are truth; and You have promised this good thing to Your servant. 29“And now, may it please You to bless the house of Your servant, so that it may continue forever before You. For You, Lord GOD, have spoken; and with Your blessing may the house of Your servant be blessed forever.”
18於是大衛王進去,坐在耶和華面前,說:「主耶和華啊,我是誰?我的家算甚麼?你竟使我到這地步呢?19主耶和華啊,這在你眼中還看為小,又應許你僕人的家至於久遠。主耶和華啊,這豈是人所常遇的事嗎?20主耶和華啊,我還有何言可以對你說呢?因為你知道你的僕人。21你行這大事使僕人知道,是因你所應許的話,也是照你的心意。22主耶和華啊,你本為大,照我們耳中聽見,沒有可比你的;除你以外再無神。23世上有何民能比你的民以色列呢?你從埃及救贖他們作自己的子民,又在你贖出來的民面前行大而可畏的事,驅逐列邦人和他們的神,顯出你的大名。24你曾堅立你的民以色列作你的子民,直到永遠;你─耶和華也作了他們的神。25「耶和華神啊,你所應許僕人和僕人家的話,求你堅定,直到永遠;照你所說的而行。26願人永遠尊你的名為大,說:『萬軍之耶和華是治理以色列的神。』這樣,你僕人大衛的家必在你面前堅立。27萬軍之耶和華─以色列的神啊,因你啟示你的僕人說:『我必為你建立家室』,所以僕人大膽向你如此祈禱。28「主耶和華啊,惟有你是神。你的話是真實的;你也應許將這福氣賜給僕人。29現在求你賜福與僕人的家,可以永存在你面前。主耶和華啊,這是你所應許的。願你永遠賜福與僕人的家!」
