2 Samuel 9
1 And David said, Is there still anyone of Saul's family living, so that I may be a friend to him, because of Jonathan?
Berkatalah Daud: "Masih adakah orang yang tinggal dari keluarga Saul? Maka aku akan menunjukkan kasihku kepadanya oleh karena Yonatan."
2 Now there was of Saul's people a servant named Ziba, and they sent him to David; and the king said to him, Are you Ziba? And he said, I am.
Adapun keluarga Saul mempunyai seorang hamba, yang bernama Ziba. Ia dipanggil menghadap Daud, lalu raja bertanya kepadanya: "Engkaukah Ziba?" Jawabnya: "Hamba tuanku."
3 And the king said, Is there anyone of Saul's family still living, to whom I may be a friend in God's name? And Ziba said, There is a son of Jonathan, whose feet are damaged.
Kemudian berkatalah raja: "Tidak adakah lagi orang yang tinggal dari keluarga Saul? Aku hendak menunjukkan kepadanya kasih yang dari Allah." Lalu berkatalah Ziba kepada raja: "Masih ada seorang anak laki-laki Yonatan, yang cacat kakinya."
4 And the king said to him, Where is he? And Ziba said to the king, He is in the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, in Lo-debar.
Tanya raja kepadanya: "Di manakah ia?" Jawab Ziba kepada raja: "Dia ada di rumah Makhir bin Amiel, di Lodebar."
5 Then King David sent, and had him taken from Lo-debar, from the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel.
Sesudah itu raja Daud menyuruh mengambil dia dari rumah Makhir bin Amiel, dari Lodebar.
6 And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, came to David, and falling down on his face, gave him honour. And David said, Mephibosheth. And answering he said, Your servant is here.
Dan Mefiboset bin Yonatan bin Saul masuk menghadap Daud, ia sujud dan menyembah. Kata Daud: "Mefiboset!" Jawabnya: "Inilah hamba tuanku."
7 And David said to him, Have no fear: for truly I will be good to you, because of your father Jonathan, and I will give back to you all the land which was Saul's; and you will have a place at my table at all times.
Kemudian berkatalah Daud kepadanya: "Janganlah takut, sebab aku pasti akan menunjukkan kasihku kepadamu oleh karena Yonatan, ayahmu; aku akan mengembalikan kepadamu segala ladang Saul, nenekmu, dan engkau akan tetap makan sehidangan dengan aku."
8 And he went down on his face before the king, and said, What is your servant, for you to take note of a dead dog such as I am?
Lalu sujudlah Mefiboset dan berkata: "Apakah hambamu ini, sehingga engkau menghiraukan anjing mati seperti aku?"
9 Then the king sent for Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, All the property of Saul and of his family I have given to your master's son.
Lalu raja memanggil Ziba, hamba Saul itu, dan berkata kepadanya: "Segala sesuatu yang adalah milik Saul dan milik seluruh keluarganya kuberikan kepada cucu tuanmu itu.
10 And you and your sons and your servants are to take care of the land for him, and get in the fruit of it, so that your master's son may have food: but Mephibosheth, your master's son, will have a place at my table at all times. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
Engkau harus mengerjakan tanah baginya, engkau, anak-anakmu dan hamba-hambamu, dan harus membawa masuk tuaiannya, supaya cucu tuanmu itu ada makanannya. Mefiboset, cucu tuanmu itu, akan tetap makan sehidangan dengan aku." Ziba mempunyai lima belas orang anak laki-laki dan dua puluh orang hamba.
11 Then Ziba said to the king, Every order which you have given to your servant will be done. As for Mephibosheth, he had a place at David's table, like one of the king's sons.
Berkatalah Ziba kepada raja: "Hambamu ini akan melakukan tepat seperti yang diperintahkan tuanku raja kepadanya." Dan Mefiboset makan sehidangan dengan Daud sebagai salah seorang anak raja.
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son named Mica. And all the people living in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.
Mefiboset mempunyai seorang anak laki-laki yang kecil, yang bernama Mikha. Semua orang yang diam di rumah Ziba adalah hamba-hamba Mefiboset.
13 So Mephibosheth went on living in Jerusalem; for he took all his meals at the king's table; and he had not the use of his feet.
Demikianlah Mefiboset diam di Yerusalem, sebab ia tetap makan sehidangan dengan raja. Adapun kedua kakinya timpang.
