2 Samuel 9

1 And David saith, 'Is there yet any left to the house of Saul, and I do with him kindness because of Jonathan?'

Na ka mea a Rawiri, Kahore ranei he morehu inaianei o te whare o Haora, kia puta ai toku aroha ki a ia, he mea hoki naku ki a Honatana?

2 And the house of Saul hath a servant, and his name [is] Ziba, and they call for him unto David; and the king saith unto him, 'Art thou Ziba?' and he saith, 'Thy servant.'

Na he pononga tera no te whare o Haora, ko tona ingoa ko Tipa: na ka karangatia ia ki a Rawiri, a ka mea te kingi ki a ia, Ko Tipa koe? Ka mea tera, Tenei tau pononga.

3 And the king saith, 'Is there not yet a man to the house of Saul, and I do with him the kindness of God?' And Ziba saith unto the king, 'Jonathan hath yet a son — lame.'

Na ka mea te kingi, Kahore ianei tetahi o te whare o Haora, kia whakaputaina ai e ahau to te Atua aroha ki a ia? Na ka mea a Tipa ki te kingi, Tenei ano tetahi tama a Honatana, he kopa nga waewae.

4 And the king saith to him, 'Where [is] he?' and Ziba saith unto the king, 'Lo, he [is] in the house of Machir, son of Ammiel, in Lo-Debar.'

Na ka mea te kingi ki a ia, Kei hea? Ka mea a Tipa ki te kingi, Na, kei te whare o Makiri, tama a Amiere, kei Rotepara.

5 And king David sendeth, and taketh him out of the house of Machir son of Ammiel, of Lo-Debar,

Katahi a Kingi Rawiri ka unga tangata ki te tiki i a ia i te whare o Makiri, tama a Amiere, i Rotepara.

6 and Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, son of Saul, cometh unto David, and falleth on his face, and doth obeisance, and David saith, 'Mephibosheth;' and he saith, 'Lo, thy servant.'

A ka tae mai a Mepipohete tama a Honatana tama a Haora ki a Rawiri, ka tapapa, ka piko. Na ka mea a Rawiri, E Mepipohete. Ano ra ko tera, Tenei tau pononga.

7 And David saith to him, 'Be not afraid; for I certainly do with thee kindness because of Jonathan thy father, and have given back to thee all the field of Saul thy father, and thou dost eat bread at my table continually.'

Na ka mea a Rawiri ki a ia, Kaua e wehi; ka puta hoki toku aroha ki a koe, he whakaaro hoki ki a Honatana ki tou papa, me whakahoki ano e ahau ki a koe te mara katoa a Haora, a tou papa; me kai taro tonu ano koe ki taku tepu.

8 And he boweth himself, and saith, 'What [is] thy servant, that thou hast turned unto the dead dog — such as I?'

Na ka piko iho ia, ka mea, He aha tau pononga, i titiro mai ai koe ki tenei kuri mate, i ahau nei?

9 And the king calleth unto Ziba servant of Saul, and saith unto him, 'All that was to Saul and to all his house, I have given to the son of thy lord,

Katahi ka karanga te kingi ki a Tipa, ki te tangata a Haora, ka mea ki a ia, Ko nga mea katoa a Haora i mua, a tona whare katoa hoki, kua hoatu e ahau ki te tama a tou ariki.

10 and thou hast served for him the land, thou and thy sons, and thy servants, and hast brought in, and there hath been to the son of thy lord bread, and he hath eaten it; and Mephibosheth son of thy lord doth eat continually bread at my table;' and Ziba hath fifteen sons and twenty servants.

Ko koe hoki hei kaimahi mana i te oneone, koutou ko au tama, ko au pononga, ka kohi ai i nga hua; a ka whai taro te tama a tou ariki hei kai mana: ko Mepipohete ia ko te tama a tou ariki, me kai taro tonu ia ki taku tepu. Na, kotahi tekau ma rim a nga tama a Tipa, e rua tekau nga pononga.

11 And Ziba saith unto the king, 'According to all that my lord the king commandeth his servant, so doth thy servant;' as to Mephibosheth, 'he is eating at my table ([saith the king]) as one of the sons of the king.'

Katahi ka mea a Tipa ki te kingi, Ka rite ta tau pononga e mea ai ki nga mea katoa i whakahaua mai e toku ariki, e te kingi, ki tana pononga. Ko Mepipohete ia e ai ta te kingi me kai ki taku tepu; ka rite ki tetahi o nga tama a te kingi.

12 And Mephibosheth hath a young son, and his name [is] Micha, and every one dwelling in the house of Ziba [are] servants to Mephibosheth.

Na he tama ta Mepipohete he mea nohinohi, ko tona ingoa ko Mika: he pononga ano na Mepipohete te hunga katoa e noho ana i te whare o Tipa.

13 And Mephibosheth is dwelling in Jerusalem, for at the table of the king he is eating continually, and he [is] lame of his two feet.

Heoi noho ana a Mepipohete ki Hiruharama: i kai tonu hoki ia ki te tepu a te kingi; he kopa ano ona waewae e rua.
