2 Samuel 9
1 And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan's sake?
David loh, “Saul imkhui kah aka sueng te om van pueng nim? Jonathan kong ah anih ham sitlohnah ka saii mako,” a ti.
2 And there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba; and they called him to David. And the king said to him, Art thou Ziba? And he said, Thy servant!
Te vaengah Saul im kah sal, a ming ah Ziba te om. Te dongah anih te David taengla a khue uh tih manghai loh, “Nang a Ziba,” a ti nah hatah, “Na sal ni ue,” a ti nah.
3 And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God to him? And Ziba said to the king, Jonathan has yet a son, who is lame on [his] feet.
Te phoeiah manghai loh, “Saul imkhui kah he hlang khaw om pueng pawt nim? Anih taengah Pathen kah sitlohnah ka saii mako,” a ti nah. Te dongah Ziba loh manghai taengah, “Jonathan capa kho khaem te om pueng,” a ti nah.
4 And the king said to him, Where is he? And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lodebar.
Te daengah anih te manghai loh, “Melae anih ta?” a ti nah. Ziba loh manghai te, “Lodebar kah Ammiel capa Makir im ah om ke,” a ti nah.
5 And king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.
Te dongah manghai David loh a tah tih Lodebar kah Ammiel capa Makir im lamloh anih te a loh.
6 And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, and fell on his face and did obeisance. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he said, Behold thy servant!
Saul capa Jonathan kah a ca Mephibosheth te David taengah ha pawk van neh a mikhmuh ah a bakop pah tih a bawk. Te vaengah David loh, “Mephibosheth,” a ti nah hatah, “Na sal ni he,” a ti nah.
7 And David said to him, Fear not; for I will certainly shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father's sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.
Te vaengah anih te David loh, “Rhih boeh, na pa Jonathan kong ah sitlohnah he nang taengah ka saii rhoe ka saii ni. Na pa Saul kah khohmuen boeih te namah taengla kam mael ni. Namah te kai kah caboei dongah buh rhawp na caak ni,” a ti nah.
8 And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?
Te vaengah Mephibosheth te bakop tih, “Ba aih nim, na sal kai bang ui duek taengla na mael,” a ti nah.
9 Then the king called Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, I have given to thy master's son all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.
Te phoeiah manghai loh Saul kah tueihyoeih Ziba te a khue tih, “Saul neh a imkhui boeih kah a koe la aka om boeih te tah na boeipa kah a capa taengah ka paek coeng.
10 And thou, and thy sons, and thy servants, shall till the land for him, and thou shalt bring in [the fruits], that thy master's son may have food to eat. And Mephibosheth thy master's son shall eat bread at my table continually. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
Namah neh na ca rhoek, na sal rhoek loh khohmuen ah anih hamla thohtat pah lamtah sang pah. Te vaengah na boeipa kah a capa ham caak om pah saeh lamtah anih loh ca saeh. Tedae na boeipa kah a capa Mephibosheth tah kamah kah caboei dongah buh rhawp ca saeh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Ziba taengah capa hlai nga neh sal pakul om.
11 And Ziba said to the king, According to all that my lord the king has commanded his servant, so will thy servant do. And Mephibosheth [said David] shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.
Ziba loh manghai taengah, “Ka boeipa manghai loh a sal a uen vanbangla na sal loh boeih saii tangloeng saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Mephibosheth tah manghai capa pakhat bangla caboei dongah a caak.
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. And all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.
Te vaengah Mephibosheth taengah a capa a noe, a ming ah Mikha te om. Ziba imkhui kah tolvael boeih tah Mephibosheth kah sal la om uh.
13 So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem; for he did eat continually at the king's table. And he was lame on both his feet.
Mephibosheth te Jerusalem ah kho a sak tih manghai caboei dongah caboei buh rhawp a caak. Anih te a kho bok khaem.
