< 2 Samuel 9 >

1 David said, "Is there yet any who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"
Daudi nopenjo niya, “Bende nitie ngʼato angʼata modongʼ e dhood Saulo manyalo timo ne tim ngʼwono nikech Jonathan?”
2 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, "Are you Ziba?" He said, "Your servant is he."
Koro ne nitie jatich mane tiyo e od Saulo ma nyinge Ziba. Ne giluonge mondo obi e nyim Daudi mi ruoth nopenje niya, “In e Ziba?” Nodwoko niya, “Ee, en an jatichni.”
3 The king said, "Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God to him?" Ziba said to the king, "Jonathan has yet a son, who is lame of his feet."
Eka ruoth nopenje niya, “Onge ngʼat ma dipo kodongʼ e dhood Saulo ma anyalo timo ne tim ngʼwono mar Nyasaye?” Ziba nodwoko ruoth kowacho niya, “Nitie wuod Jonathan; to tiendene duto ongʼol.”
4 And the king said, "Where is he?" And Ziba said to the king, "Look, he is in the house of Makir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar."
Ruoth nopenjo niya, “En kanye?” Ziba nodwoke niya, “En e od Makir wuod Amiel modak Lo Debar.”
5 Then the king sent, and brought him out of the house of Makir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.
Omiyo ruoth nochiko mondo okele kigole Lo Debar e od Makir wuod Amiel.
6 And Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, and he fell face down in homage. And David said, "Mippibaal?" And he answered, "Look, your servant."
Kane Mefibosheth wuod Jonathan, ma wuod Saulo, obiro ir Daudi, nokulore piny komiye duongʼ. Daudi noluonge niya, “Mefibosheth!” Nodwoke niya, Ee, en an jatichni.
7 And David said to him, "Do not be afraid, for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father's sake, and will restore to you all the land of Saul your grandfather. You shall eat bread at my table continually."
Daudi nowachone niya, “Kik iluor, nimar gadiera abiro timoni tim ngʼwono nikech wuonu Jonathan. Abiro dwokoni puothe duto mane mag kwaru Saulo, kendo inichiem e mesana kinde duto.”
8 He bowed down, and said, "What is your servant, that you should look on such a dead dog as I am?"
Mefibosheth nokulore piny mowacho niya, “An mana misumbani, ngʼat machalo gi guok motho, to angʼo momiyo itimona maber kama?”
9 Then the king called to Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, "All that pertained to Saul and to all his house have I given to your master's son.
Eka ruoth noluongo Ziba, ma jatich Saulo mowachone niya, “Amiyo nyakwar ruodhi gik moko duto mane mag Saulo gi joode.
10 You shall till the land for him, you, and your sons, and your servants, and you shall bring food into your master's house that they may eat. But Mippibaal your master's son shall eat bread always at my table." Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
In gi yawuoti kod jotiji ubiro purone kendo ukel cham mondo nyakwar ruodhi obed gi chiemo to Mefibosheth, nyakwar ruodhi, to biro chiemo e mesana pile.” Ziba ne nigi yawuowi apar gabich gi jotich piero ariyo.
11 Then Ziba said to the king, "According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so your servant shall do." So Mippibaal ate at David's table like one of the king's sons.
Eka Ziba nowachone ruoth niya, “Jatiji biro timo gimoro amora ma ruodha ma ruoth ochiko jatichne mondo otim.” Omiyo Mefibosheth nochiemo e mesa Daudi mana kaka achiel kuom yawuot ruoth.
12 Mippibaal had a young son, whose name was Micah. All that lived in the house of Ziba were servants to Mippibaal.
Mefibosheth ne nigi wuode matin miluongo ni Mika, to jood Ziba duto ne gin jotij Mefibosheth.
13 So Mippibaal lived in Jerusalem; for he ate continually at the king's table. He was lame in both his feet.
Kendo Mefibosheth nodak Jerusalem nikech ne ochiemo pile e mesa ruoth, to tiendene ariyo ne ongʼol.
