2 Samuel 9
1 And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?
David loh, “Saul imkhui kah aka sueng te om van pueng nim? Jonathan kong ah anih ham sitlohnah ka saii mako,” a ti.
2 And there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba, and they called him unto David; and the king said unto him, Art thou Ziba? And he said, Thy servant is he.
Te vaengah Saul im kah sal, a ming ah Ziba te om. Te dongah anih te David taengla a khue uh tih manghai loh, “Nang a Ziba,” a ti nah hatah, “Na sal ni ue,” a ti nah.
3 And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God unto him? And Ziba said unto the king, Jonathan hath yet a son, which is lame on his feet.
Te phoeiah manghai loh, “Saul imkhui kah he hlang khaw om pueng pawt nim? Anih taengah Pathen kah sitlohnah ka saii mako,” a ti nah. Te dongah Ziba loh manghai taengah, “Jonathan capa kho khaem te om pueng,” a ti nah.
4 And the king said unto him, Where is he? And Ziba said unto the king, Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lo-debar.
Te daengah anih te manghai loh, “Melae anih ta?” a ti nah. Ziba loh manghai te, “Lodebar kah Ammiel capa Makir im ah om ke,” a ti nah.
5 Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo-debar.
Te dongah manghai David loh a tah tih Lodebar kah Ammiel capa Makir im lamloh anih te a loh.
6 And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came unto David, and fell on his face, and did obeisance. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold thy servant!
Saul capa Jonathan kah a ca Mephibosheth te David taengah ha pawk van neh a mikhmuh ah a bakop pah tih a bawk. Te vaengah David loh, “Mephibosheth,” a ti nah hatah, “Na sal ni he,” a ti nah.
7 And David said unto him, Fear not: for I will surely shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father’s sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.
Te vaengah anih te David loh, “Rhih boeh, na pa Jonathan kong ah sitlohnah he nang taengah ka saii rhoe ka saii ni. Na pa Saul kah khohmuen boeih te namah taengla kam mael ni. Namah te kai kah caboei dongah buh rhawp na caak ni,” a ti nah.
8 And he did obeisance, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?
Te vaengah Mephibosheth te bakop tih, “Ba aih nim, na sal kai bang ui duek taengla na mael,” a ti nah.
9 Then the king called to Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said unto him, All that pertained to Saul and to all his house have I given unto thy master’s son.
Te phoeiah manghai loh Saul kah tueihyoeih Ziba te a khue tih, “Saul neh a imkhui boeih kah a koe la aka om boeih te tah na boeipa kah a capa taengah ka paek coeng.
10 And thou shalt till the land for him, thou, and thy sons, and thy servants; and thou shalt bring in [the fruits], that thy master’s son may have bread to eat: but Mephibosheth thy master’s son shall eat bread alway at my table. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
Namah neh na ca rhoek, na sal rhoek loh khohmuen ah anih hamla thohtat pah lamtah sang pah. Te vaengah na boeipa kah a capa ham caak om pah saeh lamtah anih loh ca saeh. Tedae na boeipa kah a capa Mephibosheth tah kamah kah caboei dongah buh rhawp ca saeh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Ziba taengah capa hlai nga neh sal pakul om.
11 Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king commandeth his servant, so shall thy servant do. As for Mephibosheth, [said the king], he shall eat at my table, as one of the kings sons.
Ziba loh manghai taengah, “Ka boeipa manghai loh a sal a uen vanbangla na sal loh boeih saii tangloeng saeh,” a ti nah. Te dongah Mephibosheth tah manghai capa pakhat bangla caboei dongah a caak.
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. And all that dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants unto Mephibosheth.
Te vaengah Mephibosheth taengah a capa a noe, a ming ah Mikha te om. Ziba imkhui kah tolvael boeih tah Mephibosheth kah sal la om uh.
13 So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem: for he did eat continually at the king’s table; and he was lame on both his feet.
Mephibosheth te Jerusalem ah kho a sak tih manghai caboei dongah caboei buh rhawp a caak. Anih te a kho bok khaem.
