Otra Samuela 9

1 Un Dāvids sacīja: vai vēl ir kāds, kas atlicies no Saula nama, ka es tam žēlastību parādu Jonatāna dēļ?

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

2 Un Saula namam bija kalps, Cībus vārdā, un tas tapa aicināts Dāvida priekšā. Un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: vai tu esi Cībus? Un viņš sacīja: esmu, tavs kalps.

And 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, Art thou Ziba? And he said, Thy servant!

3 Un ķēniņš sacīja: vai vēl kāds nav no Saula nama, ka es Dieva žēlastību tam parādu? Un Cībus sacīja uz ķēniņu: Vēl ir viens Jonatāna dēls, tizls uz abām kājām.

And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God to him? And Ziba said to the king, Jonathan has yet a son, who is lame on [his] feet.

4 Un ķēniņš uz to sacīja: kur tas ir? Un Cībus sacīja uz ķēniņu: redzi, viņš ir Mahira, Amiēļa dēla, namā, Lodabarā.

And the king said to him, Where is he? And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lodebar.

5 Tad ķēniņš Dāvids nosūtīja un to ņēma no Mahira, Amiēļa dēla, nama, no Lodabaras.

And king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.

6 Kad nu Mefibošets, Jonatāna dēls, Saula dēla dēls, pie Dāvida nāca tad viņš metās uz savu vaigu un klanījās. Un Dāvids sacīja: Mefibošet! Un viņš sacīja: redzi, še tavs kalps.

And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, and fell on his face and did obeisance. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he said, Behold thy servant!

7 Un Dāvids uz to sacīja: nebīsties, es tiešām tev parādīšu žēlastību tava tēva Jonatāna dēļ, un tev atdošu visus tava tēva Saula tīrumus, un tev būs vienmēr maizi ēst pie mana galda.

And David said to him, Fear not; for I will certainly shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father's sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.

8 Un tas paklanījās un sacīja: kas tavs kalps tāds ir, ka tu uzlūko nomirušu suni, kāds es esmu?

And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?

9 Tad ķēniņš aicināja Cību, Saula kalpu, un uz to sacīja: visu, kas Saulam un viņa namam piederēja, to es esmu devis tava kunga dēlam.

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

10 Tāpēc strādā tu viņam to zemi, tu ar saviem dēliem un ar saviem kalpiem, un savāc, ka tava kunga dēlam ir maizes ko ēst, un Mefibošets, tava kunga dēls, lai vienmēr ēd maizi pie mana galda. Bet Cībum bija piecpadsmit dēli un divdesmit kalpi.

And thou, and thy sons, and thy servants, shall till the land for him, and thou shalt bring in [the fruits], that thy master's son may have food to eat. And Mephibosheth thy master's son shall eat bread at my table continually. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

11 Un Cībus sacīja uz ķēniņu: visu, ko mans kungs, tas ķēniņš, savam kalpam pavēl, to tavs kalps darīs. Un Mefibošets lai ēd pie mana galda tāpat, kā viens no ķēniņa bērniem.

And Ziba said to the king, According to all that my lord the king has commanded his servant, so will thy servant do. And Mephibosheth [said David] shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.

12 Un Mefibošetam bija mazs dēls, vārdā Miha, un visi, kas Cībus namā dzīvoja, tie Mefibošetam bija par kalpiem.

And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. And all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.

13 Un Mefibošets dzīvoja Jeruzālemē, tāpēc ka viņš vienmēr ēda pie ķēniņa galda. Un viņš bija tizls uz abām kājām.

So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem; for he did eat continually at the king's table. And he was lame on both his feet.
