1 Chronicles 17
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1And it came to pass, when David dwelt in his house, that David said to Nathan the prophet: 'Lo, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of the covenant of the LORD dwelleth under curtains.'
1大卫 住在自己宫中，对先知 拿单 说：「看哪，我住在香柏木的宫中，耶和华的约柜反在幔子里。」
2And Nathan said unto David: 'Do all that is in thy heart; for God is with thee.'
2拿单 对 大卫 说：「你可以照你的心意而行，因为 神与你同在。」
3And it came to pass the same night, that the word of God came to Nathan, saying:
3当夜， 神的话临到 拿单 ，说：
4'Go and tell David My servant: Thus saith the LORD: Thou shalt not build Me a house to dwell in;
4「你去告诉我仆人 大卫 ，说耶和华如此说：『你不可建造殿宇给我居住。
5for I have not dwelt in a house since the day that I brought up Israel, unto this day; but have gone from tent to tent, and from one tabernacle to another.
5自从我领 以色列 人出 埃及 ，直到今日，我未曾住过殿宇，乃从这会幕到那会幕，从这帐幕 到那帐幕 。
6In all places wherein I have walked among all Israel, spoke I a word with any of the judges of Israel, whom I commanded to feed My people, saying: Why have ye not built Me a house of cedar?
6凡我同 以色列 人所走的地方，我何曾向 以色列 的一个士师，就是我吩咐牧养我民的说：你为何不给我建造香柏木的殿宇呢？』
7Now therefore thus shalt thou say unto My servant David: Thus saith the LORD of hosts: I took thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheep, that thou shouldest be prince over My people Israel;
7现在你要告诉我仆人 大卫 ，说万军之耶和华如此说：『我从羊圈中将你召来，叫你不再跟从羊群，立你作我民 以色列 的君。
8and I have been with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies from before thee; and I will make thee a name, like unto the name of the great ones that are in the earth.
8你无论往哪里去，我常与你同在，剪除你的一切仇敌；我必使你得大名，好像世上大大有名的人一样。
9And I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disquieted no more; neither shall the children of wickedness waste them any more, as at the first,
9我必为我民 以色列 选定一个地方，栽培他们，使他们住自己的地方，不再迁移；凶恶之子也不像从前扰害他们，
10even from the day that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel; and I will subdue all thine enemies. Moreover I tell thee that the LORD will build thee a house.
10并不像我命士师治理我民 以色列 的时候一样。我必治服你的一切仇敌，并且我—耶和华应许你，必为你建立家室。
11And it shall come to pass, when thy days are fulfilled that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will set up thy seed after thee, who shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom.
11你寿数满足归你列祖的时候，我必使你的后裔接续你的位，我也必坚定他的国。
12He shall build Me a house, and I will establish his throne for ever.
12他必为我建造殿宇；我必坚定他的国位直到永远。
13I will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me for a son; and I will not take My mercy away from him, as I took it from him that was before thee;
13我要作他的父，他要作我的子；并不使我的慈爱离开他，像离开在你以前的 扫罗 一样。
14but I will settle him in My house and in My kingdom for ever; and his throne shall be established for ever.'
14我却要将他永远坚立在我家里和我国里；他的国位也必坚定，直到永远。』」
15According to all these words, and according to all this vision, so did Nathan speak unto David.
15拿单 就按这一切话，照这默示告诉 大卫 。
16Then David the king went in, and sat before the LORD; and he said: 'Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my house, that Thou hast brought me thus far?
16于是 大卫 王进去，坐在耶和华面前，说：「耶和华 神啊，我是谁，我的家算什么，你竟使我到这地步呢？
17And this was a small thing in Thine eyes, O God; but Thou hast spoken of Thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast regarded me after the manner of a man of high degree, O LORD God.
17神啊，这在你眼中还看为小，又应许你仆人的家至于久远。耶和华 神啊，你看顾我好像看顾高贵的人。
18What can David say yet more unto Thee concerning the honour which is done to Thy servant? for Thou knowest Thy servant.
18你加于仆人的尊荣，我还有何言可说呢？因为你知道你的仆人。
19O LORD, for Thy servant's sake, and according to Thine own heart, hast Thou wrought all this greatness, to make known all these great things.
19耶和华啊，你行了这大事，并且显明出来，是因你仆人的缘故，也是照你的心意。
20O LORD, there is none like Thee, neither is there any God beside Thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
20耶和华啊，照我们耳中听见，没有可比你的，除你以外再无 神。
21And who is like Thy people Israel, a nation one in the earth, whom God went to redeem unto Himself for a people, to make Thee a name by great and tremendous things, in driving out nations from before Thy people, whom Thou didst redeem out of Egypt.
21世上有何民能比你的民 以色列 呢？你 神从 埃及 救赎他们作自己的子民，又在你赎出来的民面前行大而可畏的事，驱逐列邦人，显出你的大名。
22For Thy people Israel didst Thou make Thine own people for ever; and Thou, LORD, becamest their God.
22你使 以色列 人作你的子民，直到永远；你—耶和华也作他们的 神。
23And now, O LORD, let the word that Thou hast spoken concerning Thy servant, and concerning his house, be established for ever, and do as Thou hast spoken.
23耶和华啊，你所应许仆人和仆人家的话，求你坚定，直到永远，照你所说的而行。
24Yea, let it be established, and let Thy name be magnified for ever, that it may be said: The LORD of hosts is the God of Israel, even a God to Israel; and the house of David Thy servant shall be established before Thee.
24愿你的名永远坚立，被尊为大，说：『万军之耶和华是 以色列 的 神，是治理 以色列 的 神。』这样，你仆人 大卫 的家必在你面前坚立。
25For Thou, O my God, hast revealed to Thy servant that Thou wilt build him a house; therefore hath Thy servant taken heart to pray before Thee.
25我的 神啊，因你启示仆人说，我必为你建立家室，所以仆人大胆在你面前祈祷。
26And now, O LORD, Thou alone art God, and hast promised this good thing unto Thy servant;
26耶和华啊，惟有你是 神，你也应许将这福气赐给仆人。
27and now it hath pleased Thee to bless the house of Thy servant, that it may continue for ever before Thee; for Thou, O LORD, hast blessed, and so let Thy servant be blessed for ever.'
27现在你喜悦赐福与仆人的家，可以永存在你面前。耶和华啊，你已经赐福，还要赐福到永远。」
