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 Saul’s house, 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 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.”
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 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.”
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.
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.”
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 King David sent and brought him out of the house of Machir 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.
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!”
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.
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.”
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 at 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 belonged to Saul and to all his house I have 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.
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.
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 will do.” So Mephibosheth ate at the king’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.
Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. All who lived in Ziba’s house were servants to Mephibosheth.
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 Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king’s table. He was lame in both his feet.
