UDavide ukhuluma noNathani ngomphongolo kaNkulunkulu
1Kwathi inkosi ihlezi endlini yayo, uJehova wayinika ukuphumula ezitheni zayo zonke;
2Inkosi yathi kuNathani umprofethi: “Bheka, mina ngihlala endlini yokhuni lomsedari, kepha umphongolo kaNkulunkulu uhlala ngaphakathi kwezilenge.
3UNathani wasesithi enkosini: Hamba wenze konke okusenhliziyweni yakho; ngoba iNkosi ilawe.
4Kwathi ngalobo busuku izwi likaJehova lafika kuNathani, lathi:
5Hamba utshele inceku yami uDavida ukuthi: Itsho njalo iNkosi: Wena uzakungakhela indlu yokuhlala?
6Angihlalanga endlini kusukela osukwini engakhuphula ngalo abantwana bakwa-Israyeli eGibithe kuze kube namuhla, kepha ngahamba etendeni nasetabernakele.
7Ezindaweni 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?
8Ngalokho wothi encekwini yami uDavide: Usho kanje uJehova Sebawoti, uthi: Ngakuthatha esibayeni sezimvu, ulandela izimvu, ukuba ube ngumbusi phezu kwabantu bami u-Israyeli.
9Nganginawe nomaphi lapho uya khona, ngachitha zonke izitha zakho phambi kwakho, ngakwenzela igama elikhulu njengegama labakhulu emhlabeni.
10Ngizabamisela indawo abantu bami u-Israyeli, ngibatshale, ukuze bahlale endaweni yabo, bangabe besaxega; abantwana bobubi abasayikubacindezela njengakuqala;
11Kusukela kulesosikhathi engalaya ngaso ukuthi babe ngabahluleli phezu kwabantu bami uIsrayeli, nganiphumuza kuzo zonke izitha zakho. UJehova futhi uyakutshela ukuthi uzokwenzela indlu.
12Kuyakuthi lapho izinsuku zakho sezigcwalisekile, usulala koyihlo, ngiyakuvusa inzalo yakho emva kwakho, eyakuphuma ezibilinini zakho, ngiqinise umbuso wayo.
13Nguye ozakwakhela ibizo lami indlu, njalo ngizaqinisa isihlalo sobukhosi sombuso wakhe kuze kube nininini.
14Mina ngizakuba nguyise, yona ibe yindodana yami. Uma enza okubi, ngiyakumshaya ngenduku yabantu nangemivimbo yamadodana abantu;
15Kepha umusa wami awuyikusuka kuye, njengalokho ngawususa kuSawule, engawususa phambi kwakho.
16Indlu yakho nombuso wakho kuyakuma phambi kwakho kuze kube phakade; isihlalo sakho sobukhosi sizaqiniswa kuze kube nininini.
17Njengawo wonke lawa mazwi nangawo wonke lowo mbono, kanjalo uNathani wakhuluma kuDavide.
18Inkosi uDavide yangena, yahlala phambi kukaJehova, yathi: “Ngingubani mina, Nkosi Jehova? futhi iyini indlu yami ukuthi ungilethe lapha?
19Kwakusekuncane emehlweni akho, Nkosi Jehova; kodwa wakhuluma okwesikhathi eside ngendlu yenceku yakho. Futhi le yindlela yomuntu, Nkosi Jehova?
20Futhi uDavida angakutshoni kuwe? ngoba wena Nkosi Jehova uyayazi inceku yakho.
21Ngenxa yezwi lakho nanjengokwenhliziyo yakho wenzile zonke lezi zinto ezinkulu ukuba uzazise inceku yakho.
22Ngalokho umkhulu, Jehova Nkulunkulu, ngokuba akakho onjengawe, akakho uNkulunkulu ngaphandle kwakho njengakho konke esikuzwileyo ngezindlebe zethu.
23Yisiphi 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?
24Ngoba umisile abantu bakho uIsrayeli ukuthi babe ngabantu bakho kuze kube nininini; wena Jehova waba nguNkulunkulu wabo.
25Manje, Jehova Nkulunkulu, izwi owalikhuluma ngenceku yakho nangendlu yayo liqinise kuze kube phakade, wenze njengokukhuluma kwakho.
26Ibizo lakho malibe likhulu kuze kube nininini ngokuthi: I Nkosi yamabandla inguNkulunkulu phezu kukaIsrayeli, lendlu yenceku yakho uDavida kayime phambi kwakho.
27Ngokuba wena Jehova Sebawoti, Nkulunkulu ka-Israyeli, ukwambulile lokhu encekwini yakho ngokuthi: ‘Ngiyakukwakhela indlu; ngalokho inceku yakho ifumene enhliziyweni yayo ukukhuleka lo mkhuleko kuwe.
28Manje, Nkosi Jehova, wena unguNkulunkulu, namazwi akho ayiqiniso, uthembisile lokhu okuhle encekwini yakho.
29Manje 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.
