2 Samuel 9
1 David said, “Is there yet any who is left of Saul’s house, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”
Aa hoe t’i Davide: Mbe aman-tsehanga’e hao ty anjomba’ i Saole hampiboahako fañisohañe Ionatane?
2 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.”
Ie amy zao teo ty boak’ añanjomba’ i Saole, ty mpitoroñe atao Tsibà, le kinanji’ iereo ho mb’amy Davide mb’eo, le hoe i mpanjakay ama’e: Ihe hao o Tsiba zao? le hoe re: Ie o mpitoro’oo.
3 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.”
Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Aa vaho tsy nampipoke sehanga’e hao ty anjomba’ i Saole hañasoako am-patarihan’ Añahare? Le hoe t’i Tsibà amy mpanjakay. Toe mbe aman’ anake kepek’ am-pandia’e t’Ionatane.
4 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.”
Le hoe i mpanjakay tama’e: Aia re? Le hoe t’i Tsibà amy mpanjakay, Oniño t’ie añ’anjomba’ i Makire ana’ i Amiele e Lo-debare añe.
5 Then King David sent and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.
Aa le nampañitrife’ i Davide, mpanjaka boak’ añ’ anjomba’ i Makire e Lo-debare ao.
6 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!”
Niheo mb’amy Davide mb’eo t’i Mefibosete, ana’ Ionatane, ana’ i Saole, nibabok’ an-dahara’e naho nidrakadrakake. Le hoe t’i Davide: O Mefibosete! Hoe ty natoi’e: Intoy o mpitoro’oo!
7 David said to him, “Do not 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.”
Le hoe t’i Davide ama’e: Ko hemban-drehe, fa toe hisoheko ty am’ Ionatane rae’o, naho hene hampoliko ama’o ty tane’ i Saole rae’o vaho hikama am-pandambañako eo nainai’e irehe.
8 He bowed down, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look at such a dead dog as I am?”
Niambanea’e le nanao ty hoe: Ino o mpitoro’oo te haoñe’o o amboa mate manahak’ ahio?
9 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.
Kinanji’ i mpanjakay amy zao t’i Tsibà mpitoro’ i Saole, le nanoa’e ty hoe: Fa hene natoloko amy anan-talè’oy ty fanaña’ i Saole naho i anjomba’ey.
10 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.
Havae’o naho o ana’o naho mpitoro’oo ho aze i taney vaho hatonto’ areo o voka’eo soa te hanañe mahakama ho kamae’e i anan-talè’oy; fe hikama nainai’e am-pandambañako t’i Mefibosete anan-talè’o. Toe nanañ’ ana-dahy folo-lim’ amby naho mpitoroñe roapolo t’i Tsibà.
11 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.
Aa le hoe ty asa’ i Tsibà amy mpanjakay: Hanoe’ o mpitoro’oo i nandilia’ i talèko mpanjakay amo mpitoro’oo; aa le nikama ampandambaña’e eo re manahake te raik’ amo ana-dahi’ i mpanjakaio t’i Mefibosete.
12 Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. All who lived in Ziba’s house were servants to Mephibosheth.
Nanañ’ anadahy tora’e ka t’i Mefibosete, Mika ty añara’e. Songa nimpitoro’ i Mefibosete o mpimoneñe añ’ anjomba’ i Tsibào.
13 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king’s table. He was lame in both his feet.
Fe nimoneñe e Ierosalaime ao t’i Mefibosete, amy te mpikama am-pandambaña’ i mpanjakay, ie nikepek’ am-pandia’e roe.
