2 Samuweli 7 UDavide ukhuluma noNathani ngomphongolo kaNkulunkulu

¹ Kwathi inkosi ihlezi endlini yayo, uJehova wayinika ukuphumula ezitheni zayo zonke;

² Inkosi yathi kuNathani umprofethi: “Bheka, mina ngihlala endlini yokhuni lomsedari, kepha umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uhlala ngaphakathi kwezilenge.

³ UNathani wasesithi enkosini: Hamba wenze konke okusenhliziyweni yakho; ngoba iNkosi ilawe.

⁴ Kwathi ngalobo busuku izwi likaJehova lafika kuNathani, lathi:

⁵ Hamba utshele inceku yami uDavida ukuthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Wena uzakungakhela indlu yokuhlala?

⁶ Angihlalanga endlini kusukela osukwini engakhuphula ngalo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli eGibithe kuze kube namuhla, kepha ngahamba etendeni nasetabernakele.

⁷ Ezindaweni zonke engangihamba kuzo kanye nabo bonke abantwana bakwa-Israyeli ngakhuluma izwi kunoma yisiphi isizwe sakwa-Israyeli engabayala ukuba seluse abantu bami u-Israyeli, ngathi: “Kungani ningangakheli na? indlu yemisedari?

⁸ Ngalokho wothi encekwini yami uDavide: Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti, uthi: Ngakuthatha esibayeni sezimvu, ulandela izimvu, ukuba ube ngumbusi phezu kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.

⁹ Nganginawe nomaphi lapho uya khona, ngachitha zonke izitha zakho phambi kwakho, ngakwenzela igama elikhulu njengegama labakhulu emhlabeni.

¹⁰ Ngizabamisela indawo abantu bami u-Israyeli, ngibatshale, ukuze bahlale endaweni yabo, bangabe besaxega; abantwana bobubi abasayikubacindezela njengakuqala;

¹¹ Kusukela kulesosikhathi engalaya ngaso ukuthi babe ngabahluleli phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli, nganiphumuza kuzo zonke izitha zakho. UJehova futhi uyakutshela ukuthi uzokwenzela indlu.

¹² Kuyakuthi lapho izinsuku zakho sezigcwalisekile, usulala koyihlo, ngiyakuvusa inzalo yakho emva kwakho, eyakuphuma ezibilinini zakho, ngiqinise umbuso wayo.

¹³ Nguye ozakwakhela ibizo lami indlu, njalo ngizaqinisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakhe kuze kube nininini.

¹⁴ Mina ngizakuba nguyise, yona ibe yindodana yami. Uma enza okubi, ngiyakumshaya ngenduku yabantu nangemivimbo yamadodana abantu;

¹⁵ Kepha umusa wami awuyikusuka kuye, njengalokho ngawususa kuSawule, engawususa phambi kwakho.

¹⁶ Indlu yakho nombuso wakho kuyakuma phambi kwakho kuze kube phakade; isihlalo sakho sobukhosi sizaqiniswa kuze kube nininini.

¹⁷ Njengawo wonke lawa mazwi nangawo wonke lowo mbono, kanjalo uNathani wakhuluma kuDavide.

¹⁸ Inkosi uDavide yangena, yahlala phambi kukaJehova, yathi: “Ngingubani mina, Nkosi Jehova? futhi iyini indlu yami ukuthi ungilethe lapha?

¹⁹ Kwakusekuncane emehlweni akho, Nkosi Jehova; kodwa wakhuluma okwesikhathi eside ngendlu yenceku yakho. Futhi le yindlela yomuntu, Nkosi Jehova?

²⁰ Futhi uDavida angakutshoni kuwe? ngoba wena Nkosi Jehova uyayazi inceku yakho.

²¹ Ngenxa yezwi lakho nanjengokwenhliziyo yakho wenzile zonke lezi zinto ezinkulu ukuba uzazise inceku yakho.

²² Ngalokho umkhulu, Jehova Nkulunkulu, ngokuba akakho onjengawe, akakho uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwakho njengakho konke esikuzwileyo ngezindlebe zethu.

²³ Yisiphi isizwe emhlabeni esinjengabantu bakho njengo-Israyeli, uNkulunkulu ahamba ukuzihlengela sona njengesizwe, nokumenzela igama, akwenzele izinto ezinkulu nezesabekayo ezweni lakho, phambi kwabantu bakho owabahlenga, eGibithe, ezizweni nakonkulunkulu bazo?

²⁴ Ngoba umisile abantu bakho uIsrayeli ukuthi babe ngabantu bakho kuze kube nininini; wena Jehova waba nguNkulunkulu wabo.

²⁵ Manje, Jehova Nkulunkulu, izwi owalikhuluma ngenceku yakho nangendlu yayo liqinise kuze kube phakade, wenze njengokukhuluma kwakho.

²⁶ Ibizo lakho malibe likhulu kuze kube nininini ngokuthi: I Nkosi yamabandla inguNkulunkulu phezu kukaIsrayeli, lendlu yenceku yakho uDavida kayime phambi kwakho.

²⁷ Ngokuba wena Jehova Sebawoti, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ukwambulile lokhu encekwini yakho ngokuthi: ‘Ngiyakukwakhela indlu; ngalokho inceku yakho ifumene enhliziyweni yayo ukukhuleka lo mkhuleko kuwe.

²⁸ Manje, Nkosi Jehova, wena unguNkulunkulu, namazwi akho ayiqiniso, uthembisile lokhu okuhle encekwini yakho.

²⁹ Manje kakube kukuhle kuwe ukubusisa indlu yenceku yakho ukuba ime phambi kwakho kuze kube phakade, ngokuba wena, Nkosi Jehova, ukukhulumile; indlu yenceku yakho mayibusiswe ngesibusiso sakho kuze kube phakade.
