2 Samuel 9
1 David said, “Is there yet any who is left of Saul’s house, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”
Yon jou, David mande: -Pa rete yon moun menm nan fanmi Sayil la? Si genyen, mwen ta renmen aji byen avè l' poutèt Jonatan.
2 There was of Saul’s house a servant whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David; and the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” He said, “I am your servant.”
Te gen yon domestik ki t'ap travay lakay Sayil ki te rele Ziba. Yo fè chache l', yo mennen l' bay wa a. Wa a mande l': -Se ou menm nonm yo rele Ziba a? Li reponn: -Wi, monwa. Mwen la pou m' sèvi ou.
3 The king said, “Is there not yet any of Saul’s house, that I may show the kindness of God to him?” Ziba said to the king, “Jonathan still has a son, who is lame in his feet.”
Wa a mande l': -Pa gen yon moun ki rete nan fanmi Sayil la, pou m' ka fè kichòy pou li jan mwen te pwomèt sa devan Bondye? Ziba reponn li: -Wi, gen yonn nan pitit gason Jonatan yo ki vivan toujou. Men, li enfim nan tou de pye l' yo.
4 The king said to him, “Where is he?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar.”
Wa a mande l': -Kote l' ye? Ziba reponn: -Li kay Maki, pitit gason Amiyèl la, lavil Lodeba.
5 Then King David sent and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.
Se konsa, David voye chache l'.
6 Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, fell on his face, and showed respect. David said, “Mephibosheth?” He answered, “Behold, your servant!”
Lè Mefibochèt, pitit Jonatan, pitit pitit Sayil la, rive, li mete ajenou, li bese tèt li rive atè devan David. David di l' konsa: -Mefibochèt? Li reponn: -Se mwen menm, monwa. M' la pou m' sèvi ou.
7 David said to him, “Don’t 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 father. You will eat bread at my table continually.”
David di l' konsa: -Ou pa bezwen pè. Mwen pral aji byen avè ou poutèt Jonatan, papa ou. M'ap renmèt ou tout tè ki te pou Sayil, granpapa ou. Lèfini, chak jou w'a vin manje sou tab avè m'.
8 He bowed down, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look at such a dead dog as I am?”
Mefibochèt bese tèt li byen ba ankò, li di: -Monwa, poukisa w'ap okipe yon vye chen tou mouri tankou mwen?
9 Then the king called to Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said to him, “All that belonged to Saul and to all his house I have given to your master’s son.
Lè sa a, wa a rele Ziba, domestik Sayil la, li di l' konsa: -Mwen renmèt Mefibochèt, pitit pitit gason mèt ou a, tou sa ki te pou Sayil ak fanmi l'.
10 Till the land for him—you, your sons, and your servants. Bring in the harvest, that your master’s son may have bread to eat; but Mephibosheth your master’s son will always eat bread at my table.” Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
Ou men, ansanm ak pitit gason ou yo ak moun k'ap sèvi avè ou yo, nou pral travay tè a pou li. W'a pote rekòt la ba li pou rès fanmi l' ka jwenn manje pou yo manje. Men, Mefibochèt li menm ap toujou vin manje chak jou sou tab avè m'. Ziba te gen kenz pitit gason ak ven moun k'ap sèvi l'.
11 Then Ziba said to the king, “According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so your servant will do.” So Mephibosheth ate at the king’s table like one of the king’s sons.
Ziba reponn li: -M'ap fè tou sa monwa ban m' lòd fè. Se konsa, Mefibochèt toujou manje sou tab ansanm ak David tankou si li te yonn nan pitit wa a.
12 Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. All who lived in Ziba’s house were servants to Mephibosheth.
Mefibochèt te gen yon pitit gason ki te piti joujou. Li te rele Mika. Tout moun ki te rete kay Ziba t'ap travay pou Mefibochèt.
13 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king’s table. He was lame in both his feet.
Se konsa, Mefibochèt ki te enfim nan tou de pye l' yo rete lavil Jerizalèm. Li t'ap manje chak jou sou tab ansanm ak wa a.
