1 А кад цар сеђаше код куће своје, и Господ му даде мир свуда унаоколо од свих непријатеља његових,
1 When the king lived in his house, and Yahweh had given him rest from all his enemies all around,
2 рече цар Натану пророку: Види, ја стојим у кући од кедрова дрвета, а ковчег Божји стоји под завесима.
2 the king said to Nathan the prophet, “See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but God’s ark dwells within curtains.”
3 А Натан рече цару: Шта ти је год у срцу, иди, чини, јер је Господ с тобом.
3 Nathan said to the king, “Go, do all that is in your heart, for Yahweh is with you.”
4 Али ону ноћ дође реч Господња к Натану говорећи:
4 That same night, Yahweh’s word came to Nathan, saying,
5 Иди и реци слузи мом Давиду: Овако вели Господ: Ти ли ћеш ми начинити кућу да у њој наставам?
5 “Go and tell my servant David, ‘Yahweh says, “Should you build me a house for me to dwell in?
6 Кад нисам наставао у кући од кад изведох синове Израиљеве из Мисира до данас, него сам ходио у шатору и у наслону.
6 For I have not lived in a house since the day that I brought the children of Israel up out of Egypt, even to this day, but have moved around in a tent and in a tabernacle.
7 Куда сам год ходио са свим синовима Израиљевим, јесам ли једну реч рекао коме од судија Израиљевих, којима заповедах да пасу народ мој Израиља, и казао: Зашто ми не начините куће од кедра?
7 In all places in which I have walked with all the children of Israel, did I say a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel whom I commanded to be shepherd of my people Israel, saying, ‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’”’
8 Овако дакле реци Давиду слузи мом: Овако вели Господ над војскама: Ја те узех од тора, од оваца, да будеш вођ народу мом, Израиљу:
8 Now therefore tell my servant David this: ‘Yahweh of Armies says, “I took you from the sheep pen, from following the sheep, to be prince over my people, over Israel.
9 И бејах с тобом куда си год ходио, и истребих све непријатеље твоје испред тебе, и стекох ти име велико, као што је име великих људи који су на земљи.
9 I have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies from before you. I will make you a great name, like the name of the great ones who are on the earth.
10 И одредићу место народу свом Израиљу, и посадићу га, те ће наставати у свом месту, и неће се више претресати, нити ће их више мучити неправедници као пре,
10 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. The children of wickedness will not afflict them any more, as at the first,
11 и од оног дана кад поставих судије над народом својим Израиљем; и смирићу те од свих непријатеља твојих. Јоште ти јавља Господ да ће ти Господ начинити кућу.
11 and as from the day that I commanded judges to be over my people Israel. I will cause you to rest from all your enemies. Moreover Yahweh tells you that Yahweh will make you a house.
12 Кад се наврше дани твоји, и починеш код отаца својих, подигнућу семе твоје након тебе, које ће изаћи из утробе твоје, и утврдићу царство његово.
12 When your days are fulfilled and you sleep with your fathers, I will set up your offspring after you, who will proceed out of your body, and I will establish his kingdom.
13 Он ће сазидати дом имену мом, и утврдићу престо царства његовог довека.
13 He will build a house for my name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.
14 Ја ћу му бити Отац, и он ће ми бити син: ако учини шта зло, караћу га прутом људским и ударцима синова човечијих.
14 I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children of men;
15 Али милост моја неће се уклонити од њега као што сам је уклонио од Саула, ког уклоних испред тебе.
15 but my loving kindness will not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, whom I put away before you.
16 Него ће тврд бити дом твој и царство твоје довека пред тобом, и престо ће твој стајати довека.
16 Your house and your kingdom will be made sure forever before you. Your throne will be established forever.”’”
17 По свим овим речима и по свој овој утвари каза Натан Давиду.
17 Nathan spoke to David all these words, and according to all this vision.
18 Тада дође цар Давид и стаде пред Господом, и рече: Ко сам ја, Господе, Господе, и шта је мој дом, те си ме довео довде?
18 Then David the king went in and sat before Yahweh; and he said, “Who am I, Lord Yahweh, and what is my house, that you have brought me this far?
19 Па и то Ти се још чини мало, Господе, Господе, него си говорио и за дом слуге свог на дуго времена. Је ли то закон човечји, Господе, Господе!
19 This was yet a small thing in your eyes, Lord Yahweh, but you have spoken also of your servant’s house for a great while to come; and this among men, Lord Yahweh!
20 Али шта ће јоште Давид да Ти говори? Та Ти знаш слугу свог, Господе, Господе!
20 What more can David say to you? For you know your servant, Lord Yahweh.
21 Ради речи своје и по срцу свом учинио си све ове велике ствари обзнањујући их слузи свом.
21 For your word’s sake, and according to your own heart, you have worked all this greatness, to make your servant know it.
22 Зато си велик, Господе Боже, нема таквог какав си Ти; и нема Бога осим Тебе, по свему што чусмо својим ушима.
22 Therefore you are great, Yahweh God. For there is no one like you, neither is there any God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
23 Јер који је народ на земљи као Твој народ Израиљ? Ког је ради Бог ишао да га искупи да му буде народ и да стече себи име и да вам учини велика и страшна дела у земљи Твојој, пред народом Твојим, који си искупио себи из Мисира, од народа и богова њихових.
23 What one nation on the earth is like your people, even like Israel, whom God went to redeem to himself for a people, and to make himself a name, and to do great things for you, and awesome things for your land, before your people, whom you redeemed to yourself out of Egypt, from the nations and their gods?
24 Јер си утврдио себи народ свој Израиља да Ти буде народ довека; а Ти си им, Господе, Бог.
24 You established for yourself your people Israel to be your people forever; and you, Yahweh, became their God.
25 И тако, Господе Боже, реч коју си обрекао слузи свом и дому његовом, потврди засвагда, и учини како си рекао.
25 “Now, Yahweh God, the word that you have spoken concerning your servant, and concerning his house, confirm it forever, and do as you have spoken.
26 Нека се велича име Твоје до века, да се говори: Господ је над војскама Бог над Израиљем; и дом слуге Твог Давида нека стоји тврдо пред Тобом.
26 Let your name be magnified forever, saying, ‘Yahweh of Armies is God over Israel; and the house of your servant David will be established before you.’
27 Јер си Ти, Господе над војскама, Боже Израиљев, јавио слузи свом говорећи: Дом ћу сазидати теби. Зато слуга Твој нађе у срцу свом да Ти се помоли овом молитвом.
27 For you, Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, have revealed to your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.’ Therefore your servant has found in his heart to pray this prayer to you.
28 Тако, Господе, Господе, Ти си Бог, и речи су Твоје истина; Ти си ово добро обрекао слузи свом.
28 “Now, O Lord Yahweh, you are God, and your words are truth, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.
29 Буди, дакле, вољан и благослови дом слуге свог да буде довека пред Тобом; јер си Ти Господе, рекао, и Твојим ће благословом бити благословен дом слуге Твог довека.
29 Now therefore, let it please you to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever before you; for you, Lord Yahweh, have spoken it. Let the house of your servant be blessed forever with your blessing.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
And his house shall be faithful, and his kingdom even for evermore before me, and his throne shall be set up even for evermore." He who thinks this grand promise was fulfilled in Solomon greatly errs; for he attends to the saying, "He shall build me an house," but he does not attend to the saying, "His house shall be …

For there, that is, in the Book of Samuel, he says, "And if he commit iniquity I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the sons of men; but my mercy will I not take away from him," meaning by stripes the strokes of correction.

Therefore David understanding this, says in the second Book of Kings, in the passage from which we digressed to this psalm, "Thou hast spoken also for Thy servant's house for a great while to come." Therefore also a little after he says, "Now begin, and bless the house of Thy servant for evermore," etc., because the son was then about …
