< 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?”
爰にダビデいひけるはサウルの家の遺存れる者尚あるや我ヨナタンの爲に其人に恩惠をほどこさんと
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.”
サウルの家の僕なるヂバと名くる者ありければかれをダビデの許に召きたるに王かれにいひけるは汝はヂバなるか彼いふ僕是なり
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.”
王いひけるは尚サウルの家の者あるか我其人に神の恩惠をほどこさんとすヂバ王にいひけるはヨナタンの子尚あり跛足なり
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.”
王かれにいひけるは其人は何處にをるやヂバ王にいひけるはロデバルにてアンミエルの子マキルの家にをる
5 And King David sends, and takes him out of the house of Machir son of Ammiel, of Behold-Debar,
ダビデ王人を遣はしてロデバルより即ちアンミエルの子マキルの家よりかれを携來らしむ
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.”
サウルの子ヨナタンの子なるメピボセテ、ダビデの所に來り伏て拝せりダビデ、メピボセテよといひければ答て僕此にありと曰ふ
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.”
ダビデかれにいひけるは恐るるなかれ我必ず汝の父ヨナタンの爲に恩惠を汝にしめさん我汝の父サウルの地を悉く汝に復すべし又汝は恒に我席において食ふべしと
8 And he bows himself and says, “What [is] your servant, that you have turned to the dead dog—such as I?”
かれ拝して言けるは僕何なればか汝死たる犬のごとき我を眷顧たまふ
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,
王サウルの僕ヂバを呼てこれにいひけるは凡てサウルとその家の物は我皆汝の主人の子にあたへたり
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.
汝と汝の子等と汝の僕かれのために地を耕へして汝の主人の子に食ふべき食物を取りきたるべし但し汝の主人の子メピボセテは恒に我席において食ふべしとヂバは十五人の子と二十人の僕あり
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.”
ヂバ王にいひけるは總て王わが主の僕に命じたまひしごとく僕なすべしとメピボセテは王の子の一人のごとくダビデの席にて食へり
12 And Mephibosheth has a young son, and his name [is] Micha, and everyone dwelling in the house of Ziba [are] servants to Mephibosheth.
メピボセテに一人の若き子あり其名をミカといふヂバの家に住る者は皆メピボセテの僕なりき
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.
メピボセテはエルサレムに住みたり其はかれ恒に王の席にて食ひたればなりかれは兩の足ともに跛たる者なり
