< 2 Samuel 9 >

1 One day David asked, “Is there anyone who is a descendant of Saul to whom I can be kind?” He asked this because he wanted to honor Jonathan.
Hagi Deviti'a mago'a vahe zamatahigeno, Soli nagapintira mago'a vahera mani'nafi? Mani'nenigeta keta antahita hu'nenuta, nasaminke'na Jonatani'ma knare avu'ava'zama hunante'nere nona huntegahue.
2 [They told him that] there was [in Jerusalem] a man named Ziba who had been a servant of Saul’s family. So [David sent messengers to summon Ziba. When he arrived], the king asked him, “Are you Ziba?” He replied, “Yes, your majesty, I am.”
Hagi Siba'a korapara Soli eri'za ne' mani'neankino, kini ne' Deviti'a kehigeno egeno Sibana antahigeno, Kagra Sibago? Higeno agra huno, Izo ramoka nagre kagri eri'za vahere.
3 The king asked him, “Is there anyone in Saul’s family to whom I can be kind, [as I promised Jonathan that I would do]?” Ziba replied, “Yes, there is one son of Jonathan who is still [alive]. His feet are crippled.”
Hagi kini ne'mo'a antahigeno, Mago'a Soli nagapinti vahera mani'nafi? Mago'ma mani'nenigenka nasamige'na, knare avu'ava'zana hunte'na Anumzamofo avesi averi ha'neno. Anage higeno Siba'a kenona huno, Izo magora Jonatani nemofo'a mani'neanagi tare agiamo'a haviza hu'negeno kana vano nosie.
4 The king asked him, “Where is he?” Ziba replied, “He is [living] in the house of Machir, son of Ammiel, in Lo-Debar [city east of the Jordan River].”
Higeno kini ne'mo'a antahigeno, Ana risera iga mani'ne? huno kini ne'mo'a antahigegeno Siba'a huno, Ammieli nemofo Makiri nompi Lodeba kumate mani'ne.
5 So King David sent [messengers] to bring Mephibosheth [to Jerusalem].
Anage higeno kini ne' Deviti'a huzamantege'za vu'za ana risera Lodeba kumateti Ammieli nemofo Makiri nompintira ome avre'za e'naze.
6 When Mephibosheth came to David, he knelt down with his face on the ground, to show respect. Then David said, “Mephibosheth!” He replied, “Yes, your majesty, how may I serve you?”
Hagi Mefiboseti'a Jonatani nemofo Soli negehokino, kini ne' Devitinte'ma ehanatino'a avugosaregati mopafi emasegeno, Deviti'a huno, Mefibosetigo? Huno higeno, izo eri'za vahekamo'na nagre.
7 David said to him, “Do not be afraid; I will be kind to you because Jonathan your father [was my loyal friend]. I will give back to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul. And [I want] you to always eat with me at my house [MTY].”
Higeno Deviti'a asamino, Korera osuo. Na'ankure negafa Jonatani'enema huvempa hu'nogu kagrira knare navu'nava hunegante'na, negageho Soli mopa ete kamigahue. Ana hanugenka kagra maka zupa nagrane ne'zama nenoa tratetira ne'zana negahane.
8 Mephibosheth bowed [in front of David again] and said, “Sir, I am [as worthless as] [MET] a dead dog; I do not deserve [RHQ] that you be kind to me!”
Hagi Mefiboseti'a mago'ane avugosaregati umaseno nahigenka kini ne'moka eri'za vahekamo'na fri'nea kraganama hu'noa vahera e'inahu knare kavukavara hunantane huno hu'ne.
9 Then the king summoned Saul’s servant Ziba and said to him, “Saul was your master; now I am giving to Mephibosheth everything that belonged to Saul and his family.
Hagi Deviti'a Soli eri'za ne' Sibana kehigeno egeno amanage huno asami'ne, Mika Soline naga'amofo mopane maka zazamia ete kvakamofo Soli negeho Mefiboseti ami vagaroe.
10 You and your 15 sons and your 20 servants must till/plow the land for Mephibosheth’s [family], and [plant crops] and harvest them, in order that they will have food to eat. But Mephibosheth will eat food with me at my house.”
Hagi kagrane mofavre raminka'ane eri'za vahekane ana mopafina hoza anteta erita eme amigahaze. Hianagi kvakamofo negeho Mefiboseti'a nagrane maka zupa ne'zane tratera mani'neno ne'zana negahie. Hagi Sibana 15ni'a ne' mofavre'a manigeno, 20'a eri'za vahe'a mani'ne.
11 Ziba replied to the king, “Your majesty, I will do everything that you have commanded me to do.” So [after that], Mephibosheth always ate at the king’s table, as though he were one of the king’s sons.
Hagi Siba'a kenona'a huno, Rana kini nimoka mikazama huo hunka hunantana zana hugahue. Hagi ana knaretima agafa hiana Mefiboseti'a kini ne'mofo mofavregna huno ne'zane trate ne'zana ne'ne.
12 Mephibosheth had a young son named Mica. All of Ziba’s family became servants of Mephibosheth.
Hagi Mefiboseti'a ne' mofavre mago ante'ne, agi'a Mika'e. Hagi maka Siba naga'mo'za Mefiboseti eri'za vahe mani'naze.
13 And Mephibosheth, who was still crippled in both of his feet, started to live in Jerusalem, and he always ate (at the king’s table/with the king).
Hagi Mefiboseti'a Jerusalemi kini ne'ene mani'neno, nezama nenea tratetira maka zupa ne'zana ne'ne. Na'ankure tarega agiamo'a haviza hu'ne.
