2 Samuel 9

1 And David said, Is there yet one left unto the house of Saul, —that I may show him lovingkindness, for the sake of, Jonathan?

David je rekel: »Je še kakšen, ki je preostal od Savlove hiše, da mu lahko zaradi Jonatana izkažem prijaznost?«

2 Now, unto the house of Saul, belonged a servant, whose name, was Ziba, and, when they had called him unto David, the king said unto him—Art, thou, Ziba? And he said—Thy servant!

Bil pa je iz Savlove hiše služabnik, katerega ime je bilo Cibá. Ko so ga poklicali k Davidu, mu je kralj rekel: » Si ti Cibá?« Rekel je: » On je tvoj služabnik.«

3 Then said the king—Is there never a man remaining unto the house of Saul, that I may show him the lovingkindness of God? And Ziba said unto the king, There remaineth a son unto Jonathan, lame in his feet.

Kralj je rekel: » Mar ni nikogar več iz Savlove hiše, da mu lahko izkažem Božjo prijaznost?« Cibá je kralju rekel: »Jonatan ima še sina, ki je hrom na svojih stopalih.«

4 And the king said to him, Where is he? And Ziba said unto the king, Lo! he, is in the house of Machir son of Ammiel, in Lo-debar.

Kralj mu je rekel: »Kje se nahaja?« Cibá je rekel kralju: »Glej, v hiši Amiélovega sina Mahírja v Lo Dabárju je.«

5 Then sent King David, —and fetched him out of the house of Machir son of Ammiel, from Lo-debar.

Potem je kralj David poslal in ga privedel iz hiše Amiélovega sina Mahírja, iz Lo Dabárja.

6 Now, when Mephibosheth, son of Jonathan, son of Saul, came in unto David, he fell on his face and did homage. And David said, Mephibosheth? And he said, Lo! thy servant.

Torej ko je Mefibóšet, sin Jonatana, Savlovega sina, prišel k Davidu, je padel na svoj obraz in ga počastil. David je rekel: »Mefibóšet.« Odgovoril je: »Glej, tvoj služabnik!«

7 And David said to him—Do not fear, for I will, indeed shew, thee lovingkindness, for the sake of Jonathan thy father, and will restore unto thee all the land of Saul thy father, —but, thou thyself, shall eat bread at my table, continually.

David mu je rekel: »Ne boj se, kajti zagotovo ti bom izkazal prijaznost zaradi tvojega očeta Jonatana in jaz ti bom obnovil vso deželo tvojega očeta Savla in pri moji mizi boš nenehno jedel kruh.«

8 And he did homage, and said—What is thy servant, —that thou hast turned towards such a dead dog as I?

Priklonil se je in rekel: »Kaj je tvoj služabnik, da bi pogledal na takšnega mrtvega psa, kot sem jaz?«

9 Then the king called for Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said unto him, —All that pertained unto Saul and unto all his house, have I given unto the son of thy lord:

Potem je kralj poklical Savlovega služabnika Cibája in mu rekel: »Sinu tvojega gospodarja sem izročil vse, kar je pripadalo Savlu in vsej njegovi hiši.

10 therefore shalt thou till for him the ground, thou, and thy sons, and thy servants, and shalt bring in, so that thy lord’s son may have bread to eat, but, Mephibosheth, thy lord’s son, shall continually eat bread at my table. Now, Ziba, had fifteen sons, and twenty servants.

Torej ti in tvoji sinovi in tvoji služabniki, boste zanj obdelovali deželo in ti boš prinesel sadove, da bo sin tvojega gospodarja lahko imel hrano za jesti. Toda Mefibóšet, sin tvojega gospodarja, bo vedno jedel kruh pri moji mizi.« Torej Cibá je imel petnajst sinov in dvajset služabnikov.

11 Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king shall command his servant, so, will thy servant do, —but, Mephibosheth, is to eat at the table of David, as one of the sons of the king.

Potem je Cibá rekel kralju: »Glede na vse, kar je moj gospod kralj zapovedal svojemu služabniku, tako bo tvoj služabnik storil. Kar se tiče Mefibóšeta, « je rekel kralj, »on bo jedel pri moji mizi, kakor nekdo izmed kraljevih sinov.«

12 Now, Mephibosheth, had a little son, whose name, was Micha. And, all that dwelt in the house of Ziba, were servants unto Mephibosheth.

Mefibóšet pa je imel mladega sina, katerega ime je bilo Miha. In vsi, ki so prebivali v Cibájajevi hiši, so bili služabniki Mefibóšetu.

13 So, Mephibosheth, dwelt in Jerusalem, for, at the table of the king, continually, had he to eat, —he being lame, in both his feet.

Tako je Mefibóšet prebival v Jeruzalemu, kajti nenehno je jedel pri kraljevi mizi, bil pa je hrom na obeh svojih stopalih.
