صموئيل الثاني 7

الكتاب المقدس

وعد الرب لداود

1 وَبَعْدَ أَنِ اسْتَقَرَّ الْمَلِكُ فِي قَصْرِهِ، وَأَرَاحَهُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِ الْمُحِيطِينَ بِهِ، 

2 قَالَ لِنَاثَانَ النَّبِيِّ: «انْظُرْ! أَنَا مُقِيمٌ فِي بَيْتٍ مَصْنُوعٍ مِنْ خَشَبِ أَرْزٍ، بَيْنَمَا تَابُوتُ الرَّبِّ سَاكِنٌ فِي خَيْمَةٍ» 

3 فَقَالَ نَاثَانُ لِلْمَلِكِ: «قُمْ وَاصْنَعْ كُلَّ مَا تُحَدِّثُكَ بِهِ نَفْسُكَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ مَعَكَ». 

4 وَلَكِنْ فِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ قَالَ الرَّبُّ لِنَاثَانَ: 

5 «اذْهَبْ وَقُلْ لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ: لَسْتَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي تَبْنِي لِي بَيْتاً لإِقَامَتِي 

6 فَمُنْذُ أَنْ أَخْرَجْتُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ مِصْرَ إِلَى هَذَا الْيَوْمِ لَمْ أَسْكُنْ فِي بَيْتٍ، بَلْ كُنْتُ أَتَنَقَّلُ مِنْ مَكَانٍ إِلَى آخَرَ فِي خَيْمَةٍ هِيَ مَسْكَنٌ لِي. 

7 وَفِي غضُونِ تِلْكَ الْحِقْبَةِ الَّتِي سِرْتُ فِيهَا مَعَ جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، هَلْ سَأَلْتُ أَحَدَ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِينَ وَلَّيْتُهُمْ رِعَايَةَ شَعْبِي قَائِلاً: لِمَاذَا لَمْ تَبْنُوا لِي بَيْتاً مِنْ خَشَبِ الأَرْزِ؟ 

8 وَالآنَ قُلْ لِعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ: هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الْقَدِيرُ: أَنَا أَخَذْتُكَ مِنَ الْمَرْبَضِ مِنْ رِعَايَةِ الْغَنَمِ لِتَكُونَ رَئِيساً لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، 

9 وَعَضَدْتُكَ حَيْثُمَا تَوَجَّهْتَ، أَهْلَكْتُ جَمِيعَ أَعْدَائِكَ مِنْ أَمَامِكَ، وَجَعَلْتُ لَكَ شُهْرَةً عَظِيمَةً كَشُهْرَةِ عُظَمَاءِ الأَرْضِ. 

10 وَأَوْرَثْتُ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَرْضاً مُعَيَّنَةً وَثَبَّتُّهُ فِيهَا، فَسَكَنَ فِي أَرْضِهِ آمِناً، فَلَمْ يَعُدْ بَنُو الإِثْمِ قَادِرِينَ عَلَى إِذْلالِهِ كَمَا جَرَى سَابِقاً، 

11 وَكَما حَدَثَ مُنْذُ أَنْ أَقَمْتُ قُضَاةً عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَقَدْ أَرَحْتُكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْدَائِكَ، وَقَدْ أَخْبَرَكَ الرَّبُّ أَنَّهُ سَيُثَبِّتُ نَسْلَكَ مِنْ بَعْدِكَ. 

12 وَمَتَى اسْتَوْفَيْتَ أَيَّامَكَ وَرَقَدْتَ مَعَ آبَائِكَ، فَإِنَّنِي أُقِيمُ بَعْدَكَ مِنْ نَسْلِكَ الَّذِي يَخْرُجُ مِنْ صُلْبِكَ مَنْ أُثَبِّتُ مَمْلَكَتَهُ. 

13 هُوَ يَبْنِي بَيْتاً لاِسْمِي، وَأَنَا أُثَبِّتُ عَرْشَ مَمْلَكَتِهِ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. 

14 أَنَا أَكُونُ لَهُ أَباً وَهُوَ يَكُونُ لِيَ ابْناً، إِنِ انْحَرَفَ أُسَلِّطُ عَلَيْهِ الشُّعُوبَ الأُخْرَى لأُقَوِّمَهُ بِضَرَبَاتِهِمْ. 

15 وَلَكِنْ لَا أَنْزِعُ رَحْمَتِي مِنْهُ كَمَا نَزَعْتُهَا مِنْ شَاوُلَ الَّذِي أَزَلْتُهُ مِنْ طَرِيقِكَ. 

16 وَيَدُومُ بَيْتُكَ وَمَمْلَكَتُكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ أَمَامِي، فَيَكُونُ عَرْشُكَ ثَابِتاً مَدَى الدَّهْرِ». 

17 فَأَبْلَغَ نَاثَانُ دَاوُدَ جَمِيعَ هَذَا الْكَلامِ بِمُقْتَضَى الرُّؤْيَا الَّتِي أُعْلِنَتْ لَهُ. 

صلاة داود

18 فَدَخَلَ الْمَلِكُ إِلَى خَيْمَةِ الاجْتِمَاعِ وَمَثَلَ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ قائِلاً: «مَنْ أَنَا يَا سَيِّدِي وَمَنْ هِيَ عَائِلَتِي حَتَّى رَفَعْتَنِي إِلَى هَذَا الْمَقَامِ؟ 

19 وَكَأَنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ صَغُرَ فِي عَيْنَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ، فَرُحْتَ تَتَعَهَّدُ بِالْحِفَاظِ عَلَى ذُرِّيَّةِ عَبْدِكَ إِلَى زَمَنٍ طَوِيلٍ. وَهَذَا مَا يَتُوقُ إلَيْهِ قَلْبُ الإِنْسَانِ؟ 

20 وَأَيُّ شَيْءٍ آخَرَ يُمْكِنُ لِدَاوُدَ أَنْ يُخَاطِبَكَ بِهِ؟ فَأَنْتَ تَعْرِفُ حَقِيقَةَ عَبْدِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ. 

21 لَقَدْ أَجْرَيْتَ هَذِهِ الْعَظَائِمَ إِكْرَاماً لِكَلِمَتِكَ، وَبِمُوْجِبِ إِرَادَتِكَ، وَأَطْلَعْتَ عَلَيْهَا عَبْدَكَ. 

22 لِذَلِكَ مَا أَعْظَمَكَ أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَكَ نَظِيرٌ، وَلَيْسَ هُنَاكَ إِلَهٌ غَيْرَكَ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا سَمِعْنَاهُ بِآذَانِنَا. 

23 وَأَيَّةُ أُمَّةٍ عَلَى الأَرْضِ تُمَاثِلُ شَعْبَكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ الَّذِي اخْتَرْتَهُ وَافْتَدَيْتَهُ لِيَكُونَ لَكَ شَعْباً وَيُذِيعَ اسْمَكَ، وَأَجْرَيْتَ عَظَائِمَ وَمُعْجِزَاتٍ مُذْهِلَةً، لِتَطْرُدَ مِنْ أَمَامِ شَعْبِكَ الَّذِي أَنْقَذْتَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ، أُمَماً مَعَ آلِهَتِهَا. 

24 وَثَبَّتَّهُ لِنَفْسِكَ لِيَكُونَ لَكَ شَعْباً خَاصّاً إِلَى الأَبَدِ، وَأَنْتَ يَا رَبُّ صِرْتَ لَهُمْ إِلَهاً. 

25 وَالآنَ أَيُّهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ، احْفَظْ إِلَى الأَبَدِ الْوُعُودَ الَّتِي قَطَعْتَهَا لِعَبْدِكَ وَلأَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ، وَأَوْفِ بِمَا نَطَقْتَ بِهِ. 

26 وَلْيَتَعَظَّمِ اسْمُكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ، فَيَقُولَ الْبَشَرُ: حَقّاً إِنَّ رَبَّ الْجُنُودِ هُوَ إِلَهٌ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَلْيَكُنْ بَيْتُ عَبْدِكَ دَاوُدَ ثَابِتاً أَمَامَكَ، 

27 لأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ أَيُّهَا الإِلَهُ الْقَدِيرُ، إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، قَدْ أَعْلَنْتَ لِعَبْدِكَ قَائِلاً: أُقِيمُ مِنْ صُلْبِكَ مُلُوكاً، لِذَلِكَ رَأَى عَبْدُكَ أَنْ يَرْفَعَ إلَيْكَ هَذِهِ الصَّلاةَ. 

28 وَالآنَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ أَنْتَ هُوَ اللهُ، وَكَلامُكَ حَقٌّ، وَقَدْ وَعَدْتَ عَبْدَكَ بِهَذَا الْخَيْرِ. 

29 فَتَعَطَّفْ وَبَارِكْ بَيْتَ عَبْدِكَ لِيَثْبُتَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ أَمَامَكَ، لأَنَّكَ يَا سَيِّدِي الرَّبَّ قَدْ وَعَدْتَ، إذْ بِبَرَكَتِكَ يَتَبَارَكُ بَيْتُ عَبْدِكَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ».

صموئيل الثاني 7

English Standard Version

The Lord’s Covenant with David

1 Now when the king lived in his house and the Lord had given him rest from all his surrounding enemies, (يش 11:23; 1أخ 17:1) 

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.” (خر 26:1; 2صم 5:11; 2صم 7:17; 2صم 12:1) 

3 And Nathan said to the king, “Go, do all that is in your heart, for the Lord is with you.” (1مل 8:17; 1أخ 22:7; 1أخ 28:2; أع 7:46) 

4 But that same night the word of the Lord came to Nathan, 

5 “Go and tell my servant David, ‘Thus says the Lord: Would you build me a house to dwell in? (1مل 5:3; 1مل 8:19; 1أخ 22:8; 1أخ 28:3) 

6 I have not lived 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. (خر 40:18; خر 40:34; 1مل 8:16) 

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?”’ (لا 26:11; تث 23:14; 2صم 5:2; 1أخ 17:6) 

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. (1صم 16:11; مز 78:70) 

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. (1صم 18:14; 2صم 5:10; 2صم 8:6; 2صم 8:14) 

10 And I will appoint a place for my people Israel and will plant them, so that they may dwell in their own place and be disturbed no more. And violent men shall afflict them no more, as formerly, (2مل 21:8; مز 44:2; مز 80:8; مز 89:22; إر 24:6; عا 9:15) 

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. (خر 1:21; يش 11:23; قض 2:14; 1صم 2:35; 1صم 12:9; 2صم 7:1; 2صم 7:27; 1مل 11:38) 

12 When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your fathers, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom. (تث 31:16; 1مل 1:21; 1مل 2:1; 1مل 2:10; 1مل 8:20; مز 132:11; أع 13:36) 

13 He shall build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. (2صم 7:16; 1مل 5:5; 1مل 6:12; 1مل 8:19; 1أخ 22:10; 1أخ 28:6; مز 89:4; مز 89:29; مز 89:36) 

14 I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son. When he commits iniquity, I will discipline him with the rod of men, with the stripes of the sons of men, (مز 89:26; مز 89:32; عب 1:5) 

15 but my steadfast love will not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away from before you. (1صم 15:23; 1صم 15:28; 2صم 7:14; 1مل 11:13; 1مل 11:34) 

16 And your house and your kingdom shall be made sure forever before me. Your throne shall be established forever.’” (2صم 7:13; مز 89:36; لو 1:33) 

17 In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, Nathan spoke to David. 

David’s Prayer of Gratitude

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 you have brought me thus far? (تك 32:10) 

19 And yet this was a small thing in your eyes, O Lord God. You have spoken also of your servant’s house for a great while to come, and this is instruction for mankind, O Lord God! (2صم 7:12; 1أخ 17:17) 

20 And what more can David say to you? For you know your servant, O Lord God! (مز 139:1) 

21 Because of your promise, and according to your own heart, you have brought about all this greatness, to make your servant know it. 

22 Therefore you are great, O Lord God. For there is none like you, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears. (خر 15:11; تث 3:24; 1أخ 16:25; 2أخ 2:5; مز 86:8; مز 89:6; مز 89:8; إش 45:5; إر 10:6) 

23 And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went to redeem to be his people, making himself a name and doing for them great and awesome things by driving out before your people, whom you redeemed for yourself from Egypt, a nation and its gods? (تث 4:7; تث 4:34; تث 9:26; تث 10:21; تث 33:29; نح 1:10; مز 147:20) 

24 And you established for yourself your people Israel to be your people forever. And you, O Lord, became their God. (تث 26:18; 2صم 7:13; 2صم 7:16; 2صم 7:26) 

25 And now, O Lord God, confirm forever the word that you have spoken concerning your servant and concerning his house, and do as you have spoken. 

26 And your name will be magnified forever, saying, ‘The Lord of hosts is God over Israel,’ and the house of your servant David will be established before you. 

27 For you, O Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, have made this revelation to your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.’ Therefore your servant has found courage to pray this prayer to you. 

28 And now, O Lord God, you are God, and your words are true, and you have promised this good thing to your servant. (يو 17:17) 

29 Now therefore may it please you to bless the house of your servant, so that it may continue forever before you. For you, O Lord God, have spoken, and with your blessing shall the house of your servant be blessed forever.” (2صم 22:51; مز 89:28)
