< 2 Samũeli 9 >
1 Nake Daudi akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũtigarĩte wa nyũmba ya Saũlũ ũrĩa ingĩtuga nĩ ũndũ wa Jonathani?”
大衛問說:「掃羅家還有剩下的人沒有?我要因約拿單的緣故向他施恩。」
2 Na rĩrĩ, nĩ kwarĩ na ndungata ya mũciĩ wa Saũlũ yetagwo Ziba. Nao makĩmĩĩta ĩthiĩ mbere ya Daudi, nake mũthamaki akĩmĩũria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Ziba?” Nayo ĩgĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ nĩ niĩ ndungata yaku.”
掃羅家有一個僕人,名叫洗巴,有人叫他來見大衛,王問他說:「你是洗巴嗎?」回答說:「僕人是。」
3 Nake mũthamaki akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũtigarĩte wa nyũmba ya Saũlũ ũrĩa ingĩonia ũtugi wa Ngai?” Nake Ziba agĩcookeria mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũrĩ na mũrũ wa Jonathani; nake nĩ mwonju magũrũ meerĩ.”
王說:「掃羅家還有人沒有?我要照上帝的慈愛恩待他。」洗巴對王說:「還有約拿單的一個兒子,是瘸腿的。」
4 Nake mũthamaki akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Arĩ ha?” Ziba akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Arĩ mũciĩ kwa Makiru mũrũ wa Amieli kũu Lo-Debari.”
王說:「他在哪裏?」洗巴對王說:「他在羅‧底巴,亞米利的兒子瑪吉家裏。」
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mũthamaki Daudi agĩtũmana areehwo kuuma nyũmba ya Makiru mũrũ wa Amieli, kũu Lo-Debari.
於是大衛王打發人去,從羅‧底巴亞米利的兒子瑪吉家裏召了他來。
6 Rĩrĩa Mefiboshethu mũrũ wa Jonathani, mũrũ wa Saũlũ, ookire harĩ Daudi, akĩinamĩrĩra amũhe gĩtĩĩo. Nake Daudi akĩmwĩta “Mefiboshethu!” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ũyũ ndungata yaku.”
掃羅的孫子、約拿單的兒子米非波設來見大衛,伏地叩拜。大衛說:「米非波設!」米非波設說:「僕人在此。」
7 Nake Daudi akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Tiga gwĩtigĩra, nĩgũkorwo ti-itherũ nĩngũgũtuga nĩ ũndũ wa thoguo Jonathani. Nĩngũgũcookeria gĩthaka gĩothe kĩrĩa kĩarĩ gĩa gukaguo Saũlũ, nawe ũrĩrĩĩagĩra irio metha-inĩ yakwa hĩndĩ ciothe.”
大衛說:「你不要懼怕,我必因你父親約拿單的緣故施恩與你,將你祖父掃羅的一切田地都歸還你;你也可以常與我同席吃飯。」
8 Nake Mefiboshethu akĩinamĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndungata yaku ĩkĩrĩ kĩ, atĩ nĩguo ũrũmbũiye ngui nguũ ta niĩ?”
米非波設又叩拜,說:「僕人算甚麼,不過如死狗一般,竟蒙王這樣眷顧!」
9 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũthamaki agĩtũmanĩra Ziba, ndungata ya Saũlũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩndahe mũrũ wa mũriũ wa mwathi waku indo ciothe iria ciarĩ cia Saũlũ na cia nyũmba yake.
王召了掃羅的僕人洗巴來,對他說:「我已將屬掃羅和他的一切家產都賜給你主人的兒子了。
10 Wee, hamwe na ariũ aku na ndungata ciaku, nĩ inyuĩ mũrĩmũrĩmagĩra mũgũnda, na mũkainũkia magetha, nĩgeetha mũrũ wa mũriũ wa mwathi waku oonage irio. Nake Mefiboshethu, mũrũ wa mũriũ wa mwathi waku, arĩrĩĩagĩra irio metha-inĩ yakwa hĩndĩ ciothe.” (Na rĩrĩ, Ziba aarĩ na ariũ ikũmi na atano, na ndungata mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ.)
你和你的眾子、僕人要為你主人的兒子米非波設耕種田地,把所產的拿來供他食用;他卻要常與我同席吃飯。」洗巴有十五個兒子,二十個僕人。
11 Ningĩ Ziba akĩĩra mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Ndungata yaku nĩĩgwĩka o ũrĩa wothe mũthamaki, mwathi wakwa, egwatha ndungata yake ĩĩke.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mefiboshethu aarĩĩagĩra irio metha-inĩ ya Daudi taarĩ ũmwe wa ariũ a mũthamaki.
洗巴對王說:「凡我主我王吩咐僕人的,僕人都必遵行。」王又說:「米非波設必與我同席吃飯,如王的兒子一樣。」
12 Mefiboshethu aarĩ na kamwana geetagwo Mika, nao andũ othe a mũciĩ wa Ziba maarĩ ndungata cia Mefiboshethu.
米非波設有一個小兒子,名叫米迦。凡住在洗巴家裏的人都作了米非波設的僕人。
13 Nake Mefiboshethu agĩtũũra Jerusalemu, tondũ aarĩĩagĩra irio metha-inĩ ya mũthamaki hĩndĩ ciothe, nake arĩ mwonju magũrũ meerĩ.
於是米非波設住在耶路撒冷,常與王同席吃飯。他兩腿都是瘸的。
