II Samuela 9

1 I AKU la Davida, Aole anei e koe kekahi o ka ohana a Saula, i hoike aku ai au ia ia i aloha no Ionatana?

David said, "Is there yet any who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"

2 Aia kekahi kauwa no ka ohana o Saula, o Ziba kona inoa: a kii aku la lakou ia ia e hele io Davida la, i aku la ke alii ia ia, O oe no o Ziba? I mai la kela, Owau no o kau kauwa.

There was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David; and the king said to him, "Are you Ziba?" He said, "Your servant is he."

3 I aku la ke alii, Aole anei e koe kekahi o ka ohana a Saula, i hoike aku ai au i ke aloha o ke Akua ia ia? I mai la o Ziba i ke alii, Ke koe nei no kekahi keikikane a Ionatana, ua oopa na wawae ona.

The king said, "Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God to him?" Ziba said to the king, "Jonathan has yet a son, who is lame of his feet."

4 I aku la ke alii ia ia, Auhea la ia? I mai la o Ziba i ke alii, aia maloko o ka hale o Makira ke keiki a Amiela i Lodebara.

And the king said, "Where is he?" And Ziba said to the king, "Look, he is in the house of Makir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar."

5 Alaila, hoouna aku la o Davida ke alii, a lawe mai la ia ia mai loko mai o ka hale o Makira ke keiki a Amiela mai Lodebara mai.

Then the king sent, and brought him out of the house of Makir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.

6 A hiki mai la Mepiboseta, ke keiki a Ionatana, ke keiki a Saula, io Davida la, kulou iho la ia ilalo kona alo, a hoomaikai aku la, I aku la o Davida, E Mepiboseta. I mai la kela, Eia kau kauwa.

And Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, and he fell face down in homage. And David said, "Mippibaal?" And he answered, "Look, your servant."

7 I aku la o Davida ia ia, Mai makau oe: no ka mea, e oiaio no, e lokomaikai aku au ia oe no Ionatana kou makuakane, a e hoihoi aku au nou i ka aina a pau o kou kupunakane o Saula; a e ai mau oe i ka berena ma kuu papaaina.

And David said to him, "Do not 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 grandfather. You shall eat bread at my table continually."

8 Kulou iho la ia, i mai la, Heaha kau kauwa, i ike mai ai oe ia'u he ilio make?

He bowed down, and said, "What is your servant, that you should look on such a dead dog as I am?"

9 Alaila kahea aku la ke alii ia Ziba ke kauwa a Saula, i aku la ia ia, Ua haawi aku au na ke keiki a kou haku i na mea a pau o Saula a o kana ohana a pau.

Then the king called to Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, "All that pertained to Saul and to all his house have I given to your master's son.

10 E malama oe i ka aina nona, o oe me au mau keiki a me au mau kauwa; a e lawe mai hoi oe i ai na ke keiki a kou haku e ai ai: aka, o Mepiboseta ke keiki a kou haku, e ai mau ia ma ko'u papaaina. Aia ia Ziba na keikikane he umi kumamalima, a me na kauwa he iwakalua.

You shall till the land for him, you, and your sons, and your servants, and you shall bring food into your master's house that they may eat. But Mippibaal your master's son shall eat bread always at my table." Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

11 Alaila olelo aku la o Ziba i ke alii, E like me ka mea a pau a ko'u haku a ke alii i kauoha mai ai i kana kauwa, pela no e hana aku ai kau kauwa. A o Mepiboseta, e ai ia ma ko'u papaaina e like me kekahi keiki kane a ke alii.

Then Ziba said to the king, "According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so your servant shall do." So Mippibaal ate at David's table like one of the king's sons.

12 He keikikane opiopio ka Mepiboseta, o Mika kona inoa: a o na mea a pau i noho ma ka hale o Ziba, he mau kauwa lakou na Mepiboseta.

Mippibaal had a young son, whose name was Micah. All that lived in the house of Ziba were servants to Mippibaal.

13 A noho iho la o Mepiboseta ma Ierusalema, a ai mau iho la ia ma ka papaaina o ke alii: a ua oopa kela ma kona mau wawae a elua.

So Mippibaal lived in Jerusalem; for he ate continually at the king's table. He was lame in both his feet.
