Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς κατῷκησεν Δαυεὶδ ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ εἶπεν Δαυεὶδ πρὸς Ναθαν τὸν προφήτην Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ κατοικῶ ἐν οἴκῳ κεδρίνῳ, καὶ ἡ κιβωτὸς διαθήκης Κυρίου ὑποκάτω δέρρεων.

καὶ εἶπεν Ναθαν πρὸς Δαυείδ Πᾶν τὸ ἐν ψυχῇ σου ποίει, ὅτι θεὸς μετὰ σοῦ.

Καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Νάθαν

Πορεύου καὶ εἰπὸν πρὸς Δαυεὶδ τὸν δοῦλόν μου Οὕτως εἶπεν Κύριος Οὐ σὺ οἰκοδομήσεις οἶκον τοῦ κατοικῆσαί με ἐν αὐτῷ.

ὅτι οὐ κατῴκησα ἐν οἴκῳ ἀπὸ τῆς ἡμέρας ἧς ἀνήγαγον τὸν Ἰσραὴλ ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, καὶ ἤμην ἐν σκηνῇ καὶ ἐν καλύμματι

ἐν πᾶσιν οἶς διῆλθον ἐν παντὶ Ἰσραήλ· εἰ λαλῶν ἐλάλησα πρὸς μίαν φυλὴν τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ ποιμαίνειν τὸν λαόν μου λέγων Ὅτι οὐκ ᾠκοδομήκατέ μοι οἶκον κέδρινον;

καὶ νῦν οὕτως ἐρεῖς τῷ δούλῳ μου Δαυείδ Τάδε λέγει Κύριος Παντοκράτωρ Ἔλαβόν σε ἐκ τῆς μάνδρας ἐξόπισθεν τῶν ποιμνίων τοῦ εἶναι εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραήλ,

καὶ ἤμην μετὰ σοῦ ἐν πᾶσιν οἷς ἐπορεύθης, καὶ ἐξωλέθρευσα πάντας τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ἀπὸ προσώπου σου, καὶ ἐποίησά σοι ὄνομα κατὰ τὸ ὄνομα τῶν μεγάλων τῶν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.

καὶ θήσομαι τόπον τῷ λαῷ μου Ἰσραὴλ καὶ καταφυτεύσω αὐτόν, καὶ κατασκηνώσει καθʼ ἑαυτὸν καὶ οὐ μεριμνήσει ἔτι, καὶ οὐ προσθήσει ἀδικία τοῦ ταπεινῶσαι αὐτὸν καθὼς ἀρχῆς.

καὶ ἀφʼ ἡμερῶν ὡν
ἔταξα κριτὰς ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἐταπείνωσα ἄπαντας τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου, καὶ αὐξήσω σε· καὶ οἰκοδομήσει σε Κύριος.

καὶ ἔσται ὅταν πληρωθῶσιν ἡμέραι σου καὶ κοιμηθήσῃ μετὰ τῶν ποτέραν σου, καὶ ἀναστήσω τὸ σπέρμα σου μετὰ σέ, ὃ ἔσται ἐκ τῆς ¹ κοιλίας σου, καὶ ἑτοιμάσαω τὴν βασιλείου αὐτοῦ·

ηὐτὸς οἰκοδομ ² μήκει μοι οἶκον, καὶ ἀνορθώσω τὸν θρόνον αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος.

ἐγὼ ἔσομαι αὐτῷ εἰς πατέρα καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσται μοι εἰς υἱόν, καὶ τὸ ἔλεός μου οὐκ ἀποστήσω ἀπʼ αὐτοῦ ὡς ἀπέστησα ἀπὸ τῶν ὅνταωων ἔμπροσθέν σου.

καὶ πιστώσω αὐτὸν ἐν οἴκῳ μου καὶ ἐν βασιλεία αὐτοῦ ἕως αἰῶνος, καὶ θρόνος αὐτοῦ ἔσται ἀνωρθωμένος ἕως αἰῶνος.

κατὰ πάντας τοὺς λόγους τούτους καὶ κατὰ πᾶσαν τὴν ὅρασιν ταύτην, οὕτως ἐλάλησεν Ναθὰν πρὸς Δαυείδ.

Καὶ ἦλθεν ὁ βασιλεὺς Δαυεὶδ καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἀπέναντι Κυρίου, καὶ εἶπεν Τίς εἰμι ἐγὼ, Κύριε ὁ θεός, καὶ τἰς ὁ οἶκός μου, ὅτι ἠγάπησάς με ἕως αἰῶνος

καὶ ἐσμικρύνθη ταῦτα ἐνώπιόν σου ὁ θεός, καὶ ἐλάλησας ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον τοῦ παιδός σου ἐκ μακρῶν, καὶ ἐπεῖδές με ὡς ὅρασις ἀνθρώπου καὶ ὕψωσάς με, Κύριε ὁ θκός.

τί προσθήσει ἔτι Δαυεὶδ πρὸς σέ τοῦ δοξάσαι; καὶ σὺ τὸν δοῦλόν σου οἶδας,

καὶ κατὰ τὴν καρδίαν σου ἐποίησας τὴν πᾶσαν μεγαλωσύνην.

Κύριε, οὐκ ἔστιν ὅμοιός σοι, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν πλὴν σοῦ κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἠκούσαμεν ἐν ὠσὶν ἡμῶν.

καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὡς ὁ λαός σου Ἰσραὴλ ἔθνος ἔτι ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ὡς ὡδήγησεν αὐτὸν ὁ θεὸς τοῦ λυτρώσασθαι ἑαυτῷ λαόν, τοῦ θέσθαι αὐτῷ ὄνομα μέγα καὶ ἐπιφανές, τοῦ ἐκβαλεῖν ἀπὸ προσὤπου λαοῦ σου οὓς ἐλυτρώσω ἐξ Αἰγύπτου ἔθνη.

καὶ ἔδωκας τὸν λαόν σου Ἰσραὴλ σεαυτῷ λαὸν ἕως αἰῶνος, καὶ σὺ Κύριος αὐτοῖς εἰς θεόν.

καὶ νῦν, Κύριε, ὁ λόγος σου ὃν ἐλάλησας πρὸς τὸν παῖδά σου καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ πιστωθήτω ἕως αἰῶνος,

λεγόντων Κύριε Κύριε αντοκράτωρ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ· καὶ οἶκος Δαυεὶδ παιδός σου ἀνωρθωμένος ἐναντίον σου.

ὅτι σὺ ἤνοιξας τὸ οὗς τοῦ παιδός σου τοῦ οἰκοδομῆσαι αὐτῷ οἶκον· διὰ τοῦτο εὗρεν ὁ παῖς σου τοῦ προσεύξασθαι κατὰ πρόσωπόν σου.

καὶ νῦν, Κύριε, σὺ εἶ αὐτὸς θεός, καὶ ἐλάλησας ἐπὶ τὸν δοῦλόν σου τὰ ἀγαθὰ ταῦτα.

καὶ νῦν ἤρξαι εὐλογῆσαι τὸν οἶκον τοῦ παιδός σου τοῦ εἶναι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐναντίον σου· ὅτι σὺ εὐλόγησας, καὶ εὐλόγησον εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

I Chronicles Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 17 focus

It happened, when David lived in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet, Behold, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of Yahweh [dwells] under curtains.

Nathan said to David, Do all that is in your heart; for God is with you.

It happened the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying,

Go and tell David my servant, Thus says Yahweh, You shall not build me a house to dwell in:

for I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought up Israel, to this day, but have gone from tent to tent, and from [one] tent [to another].

In all places in which I have walked with all Israel, spoke I a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people, saying, Why have you not built me a house of cedar?

Now therefore thus shall you tell my servant David, Thus says Yahweh of Hosts, I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel:

and I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you; and I will make you a 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 waste them any more, as at the first,

and [as] from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel; and I will subdue all your enemies. Moreover I tell you that Yahweh will build you a house.

It shall happen, when your days are fulfilled that you must go to be with your fathers, that I will set up your seed after you, who shall be of your sons; and I will establish his kingdom.

He shall build me a house, and I will establish his throne forever.

I will be his father, and he shall be my son: and I will not take my lovingkindness away from him, as I took it from him that was before you;

but I will settle him in my house and in my kingdom forever; and his throne shall be established forever.

According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak to David.

Then David the king went in, and sat before Yahweh; and he said, Who am I, Yahweh God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?

This was a small thing in your eyes, God; but you have spoken of your servant’s house for a great while to come, and have regarded me according to the estate of a man of high degree, Yahweh God.

What can David [say] yet more to you concerning the honor which is done to your servant? for you know your servant.

Yahweh, for your servant’s sake, and according to your own heart, have you worked all this greatness, to make known all [these] great things.

Yahweh, 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 Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, to make you a name by great and awesome things, in driving out nations from before your people, whom you redeem out of Egypt?

For your people Israel did you make your own people forever; and you, Yahweh, became their God.

Now, Yahweh, let the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, be established forever, and do as you have spoken.

Let your name be established and magnified forever, saying, Yahweh of Hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel: and the house of David your servant is established before you.

For you, my God, have revealed to your servant that you will build him a house: therefore has your servant found [in his heart] to pray before you.

Now, Yahweh, you are God, and have promised this good thing to your servant:

and now it has pleased you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you: for you, Yahweh, have blessed, and it is blessed forever.
