< 2 Samuel 9 >

1 And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?
At sinabi ni David, May nalalabi pa ba sa sangbahayan ni Saul, upang aking mapagpakitaan ng kagandahang loob dahil kay Jonathan?
2 And there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba. And when they had called him to David, the king said to him, Are you Ziba? And he said, Your servant is he.
At may isang lingkod sa sangbahayan ni Saul na nagngangalang Siba, at kanilang tinawag siya sa harap ni David; at sinabi ng hari sa kaniya, Ikaw ba'y si Siba? At kaniyang sinabi, Ang iyong lingkod nga.
3 And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God to him? And Ziba said to the king, Jonathan has yet a son, which is lame on his feet.
At sinabi ng hari, wala na ba kayang natitira sa sangbahayan ni Saul, upang aking mapagpakitaan siya ng kagandahang loob ng Dios? At sinabi ni Siba sa hari, Si Jonathan ay may isang anak pa, na pilay ang kaniyang mga paa.
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.
At sinabi ng hari sa kaniya, Saan nandoon siya? At sinabi ni Siba sa hari, Narito, siya'y nasa bahay ni Machir na anak ni Amiel, sa Lo-debar.
5 Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.
Nang magkagayo'y nagsugo ang haring si David at ipinakuha siya sa bahay ni Machir na anak ni Amiel mula sa Lo-debar.
6 Now when Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, was come to David, he fell on his face, and did reverence. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold your servant!
At si Mephiboseth, na anak ni Jonathan, na anak ni Saul, ay naparoon kay David, at nagpatirapa sa kaniyang harap, at nagbigay galang. At sinabi ni David, Mephiboseth. At siya'y sumagot: Narito, ang iyong lingkod!
7 And David said to him, Fear not: for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father’s sake, and will restore you all the land of Saul your father; and you shall eat bread at my table continually.
At sinabi ni David sa kaniya, Huwag kang matakot: sapagka't aking tunay na pagpapakitaan ka ng kagandahang loob dahil kay Jonathan na iyong ama, at aking isasauli ang buong lupa ni Saul na iyong ama, sa iyo; at ikaw ay parating kakain ng pagkain sa aking dulang.
8 And he bowed himself, and said, What is your servant, that you should look on such a dead dog as I am?
At siya'y nagbigay galang at nagsabi, Ano ang iyong lingkod upang iyong lingapin akong isang asong patay?
9 Then the king called to Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said to him, I have given to your master’s son all that pertained to Saul and to all his house.
Nang magkagayo'y tinawag ng hari si Siba na lingkod ni Saul, at sinabi sa kaniya, Lahat ng nauukol kay Saul at sa buong kaniyang sangbahayan ay aking ibinigay sa anak ng iyong panginoon.
10 You therefore, and your sons, and your servants, shall till the land for him, and you shall bring in the fruits, that your master’s son may have food to eat: but Mephibosheth your master’s son shall eat bread always at my table. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
At iyong bubukirin ang lupain para sa kaniya, ninyo ng iyong mga anak, at ng iyong mga bataan at iyong dadalhin dito ang mga bunga, upang ang anak ng iyong panginoon ay magkaroon ng tinapay na makakain: nguni't si Mephiboseth na anak ng iyong panginoon ay kakain ng tinapay kailan man sa aking dulang. Si Siba nga ay may labing limang anak at dalawang pung bataan.
11 Then said Ziba to the king, According to all that my lord the king has commanded his servant, so shall your servant do. As for Mephibosheth, said the king, he shall eat at my table, as one of the king’s sons.
Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ni Siba sa hari, Ayon sa lahat na iniutos ng aking panginoon na hari sa kaniyang lingkod, ay gayon gagawin ng iyong lingkod. Tungkol kay Mephiboseth, sinabi ng hari, Siya'y kakain sa aking dulang na gaya ng isa sa mga anak ng hari.
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Micha. And all that dwelled in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.
At si Mephiboseth ay may isang anak na binata, na ang pangalan ay Micha. At lahat na nagsisitahan sa bahay ni Siba ay mga bataan ni Mephiboseth.
13 So Mephibosheth dwelled in Jerusalem: for he did eat continually at the king’s table; and was lame on both his feet.
Gayon tumahan si Mephiboseth sa Jerusalem: sapagka't siya'y kumaing palagi sa dulang ng hari. At siya'y pilay sa kaniyang dalawang paa.
