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 show 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.

Now there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba, and they called him unto David; and the king said unto him: 'Art thou Ziba?' And he said: 'Thy servant is he.'

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 show the kindness of God unto him?' And Ziba said unto the king: 'Jonathan hath 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 unto him: 'Where is he?' And Ziba said unto the king: 'Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lo-debar.'

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

Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo-debar.

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 unto David, and fell on his face, and prostrated himself. And David said: 'Mephibosheth!' And he answered: '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 unto him: 'Fear not; for I will surely show 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 down, 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 to Ziba, Saul's servant, and said unto him: 'All that pertained to Saul and to all his house have I given unto thy master's son.

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 shalt till the land for him, thou, and thy sons, and thy servants; and thou shalt bring in the fruits, that thy master's son may have bread to eat; but Mephibosheth thy master's son shall eat bread continually at my table.' 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.

Then said Ziba unto the king: 'According to all that my lord the king commandeth his servant, so shall thy servant do; but Mephibosheth eateth 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.

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

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

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