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.”
David said, “Is there yet any who is left of Saul’s house, that I may show him kindness 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!”
There was of Saul’s house a servant whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David; and the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” He said, “I am your 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.”
The king said, “Is there not yet any of Saul’s house, that I may show the kindness of God to him?” Ziba said to the king, “Jonathan still has a son, who is lame in 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.”
The king said to him, “Where is he?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar.”
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, from Lo Debar.
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!”
Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, fell on his face, and showed respect. David said, “Mephibosheth?” He answered, “Behold, your 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.”
David said to him, “Don’t be afraid, for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father’s sake, and will restore to you all the land of Saul your father. You will eat bread at my table continually.”
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, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look at 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 to Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said to him, “All that belonged to Saul and to all his house I have given to your 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).
Till the land for him—you, your sons, and your servants. Bring in the harvest, that your master’s son may have bread to eat; but Mephibosheth your master’s son will always eat bread at my table.” Now Ziba 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.
Then Ziba said to the king, “According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so your servant will do.” So Mephibosheth ate at the king’s table like one of the king’s sons.
12 Mifibousiede da goi mano ea dio Maiga esalu. Siba ea sosogo huluane da Mifibousiede ea hawa: hamosu lai.
Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. All who lived in Ziba’s house were servants to Mephibosheth.
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.
So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king’s table. He was lame in both his feet.
