2 Samuel 9
1 And David says, “Is there yet any left of the house of Saul, and I do with him kindness because of Jonathan?”
| وَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «هَلْ يُوجَدُ بَعْدُ أَحَدٌ قَدْ بَقِيَ مِنْ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ، فَأَصْنَعَ مَعَهُ مَعْرُوفًا مِنْ أَجْلِ يُونَاثَانَ؟» | ١ |
2 And the house of Saul has a servant, and his name [is] Ziba, and they call for him to David; and the king says to him, “Are you Ziba?” And he says, “Your servant.”
| وَكَانَ لِبَيْتِ شَاوُلَ عَبْدٌ ٱسْمُهُ صِيبَا، فَٱسْتَدْعَوْهُ إِلَى دَاوُدَ، وَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «أَأَنْتَ صِيبَا؟» فَقَالَ: «عَبْدُكَ». | ٢ |
3 And the king says, “Is there not yet a man of the house of Saul, and I do with him the kindness of God?” And Ziba says to the king, “Jonathan has yet a son—lame.”
| فَقَالَ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «أَلَا يُوجَدُ بَعْدُ أَحَدٌ لِبَيْتِ شَاوُلَ فَأَصْنَعَ مَعَهُ إِحْسَانَ ٱللهِ؟» فَقَالَ صِيبَا لِلْمَلِكِ: «بَعْدُ ٱبْنٌ لِيُونَاثَانَ أَعْرَجُ ٱلرِّجْلَيْنِ». | ٣ |
4 And the king says to him, “Where [is] he?” And Ziba says to the king, “Behold, he [is] in the house of Machir, son of Ammiel, in Behold-Debar.”
| فَقَالَ لَهُ ٱلْمَلِكُ: «أَيْنَ هُوَ؟» فَقَالَ صِيبَا لِلْمَلِكِ: «هُوَذَا هُوَ فِي بَيْتِ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ عَمِّيئِيلَ فِي لُودَبَارَ». | ٤ |
5 And King David sends, and takes him out of the house of Machir son of Ammiel, of Behold-Debar,
| فَأَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ دَاوُدُ وَأَخَذَهُ مِنْ بَيْتِ مَاكِيرَ بْنِ عَمِّيئِيلَ مِنْ لُودَبَارَ. | ٥ |
6 and Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, son of Saul, comes to David, and falls on his face, and pays respect, and David says, “Mephibosheth”; and he says, “Behold, your servant.”
| فَجَاءَ مَفِيبُوشَثُ بْنُ يُونَاثَانَ بْنِ شَاوُلَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ وَخَرَّ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَسَجَدَ، فَقَالَ دَاوُدُ: «يَامَفِيبُوشَثُ». فَقَالَ: «هَأَنَذَا عَبْدُكَ». | ٦ |
7 And David says to him, “Do not be afraid; for I certainly do with you kindness because of your father Jonathan, and have given back to you all the field of your father Saul, and you continually eat bread at my table.”
| فَقَالَ لَهُ دَاوُدُ: «لَا تَخَفْ. فَإِنِّي لَأَعْمَلَنَّ مَعَكَ مَعْرُوفًا مِنْ أَجْلِ يُونَاثَانَ أَبِيكَ، وَأَرُدُّ لَكَ كُلَّ حُقُولِ شَاوُلَ أَبِيكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَأْكُلُ خُبْزًا عَلَى مَائِدَتِي دَائِمًا». | ٧ |
8 And he bows himself and says, “What [is] your servant, that you have turned to the dead dog—such as I?”
| فَسَجَدَ وَقَالَ: «مَنْ هُوَ عَبْدُكَ حَتَّى تَلْتَفِتَ إِلَى كَلْبٍ مَيِّتٍ مِثْلِي؟». | ٨ |
9 And the king calls to Ziba servant of Saul and says to him, “All that was of Saul and of all his house, I have given to the son of your lord,
| وَدَعَا ٱلْمَلِكُ صِيبَا غُلَامَ شَاوُلَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «كُلُّ مَا كَانَ لِشَاوُلَ وَلِكُلِّ بَيْتِهِ قَدْ دَفَعْتُهُ لِٱبْنِ سَيِّدِكَ. | ٩ |
10 and you have served the land for him, you and your sons, and your servants, and have brought in, and there has been bread for the son of your lord, and he has eaten it; and Mephibosheth, son of your lord, continually eats bread at my table”; and Ziba has fifteen sons and twenty servants.
| فَتَشْتَغِلُ لَهُ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنْتَ وَبَنُوكَ وَعَبِيدُكَ، وَتَسْتَغِلُّ لِيَكُونَ لِٱبْنِ سَيِّدِكَ خُبْزٌ لِيَأْكُلَ. وَمَفِيبُوشَثُ ٱبْنُ سَيِّدِكَ يَأْكُلُ دَائِمًا خُبْزًا عَلَى مَائِدَتِي». وَكَانَ لِصِيبَا خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ ٱبْنًا وَعِشْرُونَ عَبْدًا. | ١٠ |
11 And Ziba says to the king, “According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so your servant does.” “As for Mephibosheth,” [says the king, ] “he is eating at my table as one of the sons of the king.”
| فَقَالَ صِيبَا لِلْمَلِكِ: «حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا يَأْمُرُ بِهِ سَيِّدِي ٱلْمَلِكُ عَبْدَهُ كَذَلِكَ يَصْنَعُ عَبْدُكَ». «فَيَأْكُلُ مَفِيبُوشَثُ عَلَى مَائِدَتِي كَوَاحِدٍ مِنْ بَنِي ٱلْمَلِكِ». | ١١ |
12 And Mephibosheth has a young son, and his name [is] Micha, and everyone dwelling in the house of Ziba [are] servants to Mephibosheth.
| وَكَانَ لِمَفِيبُوشَثَ ٱبْنٌ صَغِيرٌ ٱسْمُهُ مِيخَا. وَكَانَ جَمِيعُ سَاكِنِي بَيْتِ صِيبَا عَبِيدًا لِمَفِيبُوشَثَ. | ١٢ |
13 And Mephibosheth is dwelling in Jerusalem, for he is continually eating at the table of the king, and he [is] lame [in] his two feet.
| فَسَكَنَ مَفِيبُوشَثُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ دَائِمًا عَلَى مَائِدَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. وَكَانَ أَعْرَجَ مِنْ رِجْلَيْهِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا. | ١٣ |
