< 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?
Dafidi sì béèrè pé, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ẹni tí ń ṣe ìdílé Saulu kù síbẹ̀ bí? Kí èmi lè ṣe oore fún un nítorí Jonatani.
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.
Ìránṣẹ́ kan sì ti wà ní ìdílé Saulu, orúkọ rẹ̀ sí ń jẹ́ Ṣiba, wọ́n sì pè é wá sọ́dọ̀ Dafidi, ọba sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Ìwọ ni Ṣiba bí?” Ó sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni.”
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.
Ọba sì wí pé, “Kò ha sí ọ̀kan nínú ìdílé Saulu síbẹ̀, kí èmi ṣe oore Ọlọ́run fún un?” Ṣiba sì wí fún ọba pé, “Jonatani ní ọmọ kan síbẹ̀ tó ya arọ.”
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.
Ọba sì wí fún un pé, “Níbo ni ó gbé wà?” Ṣiba sì wí fún ọba pé, “Wò ó, òun wà ní ilé Makiri, ọmọ Ammieli, ní Lo-Debari.”
5 Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.
Dafidi ọba sì ránṣẹ́, ó sì mú un láti ilé Makiri ọmọ Ammieli láti Lo-Debari wá.
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!
Mefiboṣeti ọmọ Jonatani ọmọ Saulu sì tọ Dafidi wá, ó sì wólẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀, ó sì bú ọlá fún un. Dafidi sì wí pé, “Mefiboṣeti!” Òun sì dáhùn wí pé, “Wò ó, ìránṣẹ́ rẹ!”
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.
Dafidi sì wí fún un pé, “Má ṣe bẹ̀rù, nítorí pé nítòótọ́ èmi ó ṣe oore fún ọ nítorí Jonatani baba rẹ, èmi ó sì tún fi gbogbo ilé Saulu baba rẹ fún ọ, ìwọ ó sì máa bá mi jẹun nígbà gbogbo ní ibi oúnjẹ mi.”
8 And he bowed himself, and said, What is your servant, that you should look on such a dead dog as I am?
Mefiboṣeti sì tẹríba, ó sì wí pé, “Kí ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ jásí, tí ìwọ ó fi máa wo òkú ajá bí èmi.”
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.
Ọba sì pe Ṣiba ìránṣẹ́ Saulu, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Gbogbo nǹkan tí í ṣe ti Saulu, àti gbogbo èyí tí í ṣe ti ìdílé rẹ̀ ni èmi fi fún ọmọ olúwa rẹ.
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.
Ìwọ, àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ, àti àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ni yóò sì máa ro ilẹ̀ náà fún un, ìwọ ni yóò sì máa mú ìkórè wá, ọmọ olúwa rẹ yóò sì máa rí oúnjẹ jẹ, ṣùgbọ́n Mefiboṣeti ọmọ olúwa rẹ yóò sì máa bá mi jẹun nígbà gbogbo ní ibi oúnjẹ mi.” (Ṣiba sì ní ọmọ mẹ́ẹ̀ẹ́dógún àti ogún ìránṣẹ́kùnrin.)
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.
Ṣiba sì wí fún ọba pé, “Gẹ́gẹ́ bí gbogbo èyí tí olúwa mi ọba ti pàṣẹ fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ náà ni ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ó ṣe.” Ọba sì wí pé, “Ní ti Mefiboṣeti, yóò máa jẹun ní ibi oúnjẹ mi, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ ọba.”
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Micha. And all that dwelled in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.
Mefiboṣeti sì ní ọmọ kékeré kan, orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Mika. Gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé ní ilé Ṣiba ni ó sì ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún Mefiboṣeti.
13 So Mephibosheth dwelled in Jerusalem: for he did eat continually at the king’s table; and was lame on both his feet.
Mefiboṣeti sì ń gbé ní Jerusalẹmu, òun a sì máa jẹun nígbà gbogbo ní ibi oúnjẹ ọba; òun sì yarọ ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ méjèèjì.
