1 Eso afaega, Da: ibidi da amane adole ba: i, “Solo ea sosogo fi dunu afae da esalabala? Amai galea, na da Yonada: nema asigiba: le, ema asigi hou olelemu hanai gala.”
And David said: Is there any one, think you, left of the house of Saul, that I may shew kindness to him for Jonathan’s sake?
2 Solo ea sosogo fi hawa: hamosu dunu afae amo ea dio Siba da esalebe ba: i. Ilia da e Da: ibidima masa: ne sia: i. Da: ibidi da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da Sibala: ?” E bu adole i, “Ma! Hina noga: idafa! Na da dia hawa: hamosu dunu!”
Now there was of the house of Saul, a servant named Siba: and when the king had called him to him, he said to him: Art thou Siba? And he answered: I am Siba thy servant.
3 Hina bagade Da: ibidi da ema amane adole ba: i, “Solo ea sosogo fi dunu afae esalabala? Na da na Godema ilegei defele, agoai dunuma asigi hou olelemusa: dawa: lala.” Siba da bu adole i, “Yonada: ne egefe afadafa fawane da esala. E da gasuga: igi gala.”
And the king said: Is there any one left of the house of Saul, that I may shew the mercy of God unto him? And Siba said to the king: There is a son of Jonathan left, who is lame of his feet.
4 Da: ibidi da adole ba: i, “E da habidili esalabala?” Siba da adole i, “E da Loudiba sogega, Ma: ige (A: miele egefe) amo ea diasua esala.”
Where is he? said he. And Siba said to the king: Behold he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel in Lodabar.
5 Amaiba: le, Da: ibidi da Mifibousiede ema misa: ne sia: si.
Then king David sent, and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodabar.
6 Mifibousiede (Yonada: ne egefe amola Solo ea aowa) da doaga: loba, e da Da: ibidima nodoma: ne, e midadi begudui. Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Mifibousiede!” E bu adole i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da dia hawa: hamosu dunu!”
And when Miphiboseth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul was come to David, he fell on his face and worshipped. And David said: Miphiboseth? And he answered: Behold thy servant.
7 Da: ibidi da amane sia: i, “Mae beda: ma! Na da dia ada Yonada: ne dawa: beba: le, dima asigiwane hamomu. Na da soge huluane amo dia aowa ea gagui, amo dima bu imunu. Amola di da eso huluane na diasuga ha: i manu da defea.”
And David said to him: Fear not, for I will surely shew thee mercy for Jonathan thy father’s sake, and I will restore the lands of Saul thy father, and thou shalt eat bread at my table always.
8 Mifibousiede da bu beguduli, amane sia: i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na hou da wa: me bogoi amo ilia hou hame baligisa. Nama da noga: i hou agoai da hame hamomu galu.”
He bowed down to him, and said: Who am I thy servant, that thou shouldst look upon such a dead dog as I am?
9 Amalalu, Da: ibidi da Solo ea hawa: hamosu dunu, Siba, amo ema misa: ne wele sia: ne, ema amane sia: i, “Na da dia hina ea aowa amo Mifibousiede, ema liligi huluane amo Solo amola ea sosogo ilia musa: gagui liligi, amo ema bu imunu.
Then the king called Siba the servant of Saul, and said to him: All that belonged to Saul, and all his house, I have given to thy master’s son.
10 Di amola diagofelali amola dia hawa: hamosu dunu da Solo ea sosogo fi ilima ha: i manu ima: ne, ea soge amoga ha: i manu bugimu amola dadamini gaguli misa. Be Mifibousiede e fawane da eso hulu nina: ha: i nasu fafai amogai nasu hamomu.” (Siba egefelali da15agoane ba: i, amola ea hawa: hamosu dunu da 20 agoane esalu).
Thou therefore and thy sons and thy servants shall till the land for him: and thou shalt bring in food for thy master’s son, that he may be maintained: and Miphiboseth the son of thy master shall always eat bread at my table. And Siba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
11 Siba da bu adole i, “Hina noga: idafa! Na da dia hamoma: ne sia: i huluane amo defele hamomu!” Amaiba: le, Mifibousiede da hina bagade egefelali defele, Da: ibidi ea ha: i nasu fafai amoga fili, ha: i nasu.
And Siba said to the king: As thou my lord the king hast commanded thy servant, so will thy servant do: and Miphiboseth shall eat at my table, as one of the sons of the king.
12 Mifibousiede da goi mano ea dio Maiga esalu. Siba ea sosogo huluane da Mifibousiede ea hawa: hamosu lai.
And Miphiboseth had a young son whose name was Micha: and all the kindred of the house of Siba served Miphiboseth.
13 Amalalu, Mifibousiede (ea emo aduna da gasuga: igi galu) e da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esalu. E da ea ha: i manu huluane amo hina bagade ea ha: i nasu fafai amoga nasu.
But Miphiboseth dwelt in Jerusalem: because he ate always of the king’s table: and he was lame of both feet.
