< 2 Samuel 9 >
1 Then David asked, “Is there anyone left from the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for the sake of Jonathan?”
Jonathan koe pahrennae ka kamnue sak nahanelah, Sawl imthungnaw dawk hoi kaawm rae ao maw telah Devit ni ati.
2 And there was a servant of Saul’s family named Ziba. They summoned him to David, and the king inquired, “Are you Ziba?” “I am your servant,” he replied.
Sawl e sannaw thung e tami buet touh, a min Ziba ao teh Devit koe cei hanelah a kaw awh. Siangpahrang ni nang teh Ziba maw telah atipouh boteh, ahni ni, bokheiyah, na san kai doeh telah atipouh.
3 So the king asked, “Is there anyone left of Saul’s family to whom I can show the kindness of God?” Ziba answered, “There is still Jonathan’s son, who is lame in both feet.”
Siangpahrang ni Cathut lungpatawnae ka kamnue sak nahan Sawl imthungnaw thung dawk e kaawm rae awm hoeh na maw telah atipouh. Ziba ni, Jonathan ni capa buet touh a tawn teh a khokkhem telah atipouh.
4 “Where is he?” replied the king. And Ziba said, “Indeed, he is in Lo-debar at the house of Machir son of Ammiel.”
Siangpahrang ni nâmaw ao telah a pacei. Ziba ni khenhaw! Lodebar kho e Ammiel capa Makhir im vah ao telah atipouh.
5 So King David had him brought from the house of Machir son of Ammiel in Lo-debar.
Hattoteh siangpahrang Devit ni tami a patoun teh, Lodebar kho e Ammiel capa Makhir im hoi ahni teh a thokhai awh.
6 And when Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he fell facedown in reverence. Then David said, “Mephibosheth!” “I am your servant,” he replied.
Sawl capa Jonathan e capa Mephibosheth teh Devit koe a tho teh, a minhmai talai dawk tabei laihoi a tabut. Devit ni Mephibosheth telah a kaw, na san kai teh hivah ka o telah atipouh.
7 “Do not be afraid,” said David, “for surely I will show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all the land of your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table.”
Devit ni na lungpuen hanh, na pa Jonathan kecu dawk na pahren hanelah, Sawl ni a tawn e pueng kai ni bout na poe han. Kaie caboi dawk bu pou na ven han toe telah atipouh.
8 Mephibosheth bowed down and said, “What is your servant, that you should show regard for a dead dog like me?”
A lûsaling teh kai ui ro patet e na san kai heh banglamaw khuek na pouk telah ati.
9 Then the king summoned Saul’s servant Ziba and said to him, “I have given to your master’s grandson all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.
Siangpahrang ni Sawl e a san Ziba hah ama koe a kaw teh, Sawl hoi a imthung e hnopai pueng hah na bawipa e capa he ka poe toe.
10 You and your sons and servants are to work the ground for him and bring in the harvest, so that your master’s grandson may have food to eat. But Mephibosheth, your master’s grandson, is always to eat at my table.” Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
Nama hoi na capa, na sannaw hoi lai na thawn pouh vaiteh, na bawi capa ni a ca hane kawi ao thai nahan, na tawk e a pawhik hah na tho khai han. Hateiteh, na bawipa e capa Mephibosheth ni ka caboi dawk bu pou a ven han telah atipouh. Ziba ni a ca 15 touh hoi a san 20 touh a tawn.
11 And Ziba said to the king, “Your servant will do all that my lord the king has commanded.” So Mephibosheth ate at David’s table like one of the king’s own sons.
Ziba ni siangpahrang koevah, siangpahrang ka bawipa ni na san koe kâ na poe e patetlah na san ni ka sak han telah ati. Siangpahrang ni Mephibosheth teh ka caboi dawk siangpahrang capa buet touh patetlah bu pou a ca han toe telah ati.
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son named Mica, and all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants of Mephibosheth.
Mephibosheth ni capa cahnoung Mika a min phung e buet touh a tawn. Ziba im dawk kaawm e pueng teh Mephibosheth e san lah ao awh.
13 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, because he always ate at the king’s table, and he was lame in both feet.
Mephibosheth teh, Jerusalem kho dawk ao teh, hnintangkuem siangpahrang e caboi dawk bu a ven, a khok kahni touh hoi a khem.
