2 Samoela 9

1 Ary hoy Davida: Mbola misy sisa ihany va ny tamingan’ i Saoly mba hasiako soa noho ny amin’ i Jonatana?

And he said David ¿ for [is] there still [one] who he is left to [the] house of Saul so I may do with him covenant loyalty for sake of Jonathan.

2 Ary nisy mpanompon’ ny fianakavian’ i Saoly, Ziba no anarany. Ary nantsoiny hankany amin’ i Davida izy, ka hoy ny mpanjaka taminy: Hianao moa no Ziba? Ary hoy izy: Izaho mpanomponao no izy.

And [belonged] to [the] house of Saul a servant and name his [was] Ziba and people summoned him to David and he said the king to him ¿ [are] you Ziba and he said servant your.

3 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Mbola misy sisa ihany va ny tamingan’ i Saoly mba hasiako soa araka ny fanaon’ Andriamanitra? Dia hoy Ziba tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Mbola misy zanakalahin’ i Jonatana iray ihany ao, nefa malemy tongotra izy.

And he said the king ¿ [is] there not still anyone of [the] house of Saul so I may do with him [the] covenant loyalty of God and he said Ziba to the king still a son of Jonathan stricken of both feet.

4 Ary hoy ny mpanjaka taminy; Aiza anefa izy? Dia hoy Ziba tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Indro izy ao an-tranon’ i Makira, zanak’ i Amiela, ao Lo-debara.

And he said to him the king where? [is] he and he said Ziba to the king here! he [is] [the] house of Makir [the] son of Ammiel in Lo Debar.

5 Ary Davida mpanjaka naniraka haka azy tao an-tranon’ i Makira, zanak’ i Amiela, tao Lodebara.

And he sent the king David and he took him from [the] house of Makir [the] son of Ammiel from Lo Debar.

6 Ary nony tonga teo amin’ i Davida Mefiboseta, zanak’ i Jonatana, zanak’ i Saoly, dia niankohoka sy nitsaoka azy izy. Ary hoy Davida: Mefiboseta! Dia hoy izy: Inty ny mpanomponao.

And he came Mephibosheth [the] son of Jonathan [the] son of Saul to David and he fell on face his and he bowed down and he said David O Mephibosheth and he said here! [is] servant your.

7 Ary hoy Davida taminy: Aza matahotra, fa hasiako soa tokoa ianao noho ny amin’ i Jonatana rainao, ary hampodiko ho anao ny tany rehetra izay an’ i Saoly rainao, ary ianao hihinana eo amin’ ny latabatro mandrakariva.

And he said to him David may not you be afraid for certainly I will do with you covenant loyalty for sake of Jonathan father your and I will restore to you all [the] land of Saul father your and you you will eat food on table my continually.

8 Dia niankohoka izy ka nanao hoe: Zinona moa aho mpanomponao izay toy ny alika maty, no mba jerenao?

And he bowed down and he said what? [is] servant your that you have turned to the dog dead who [is] like me.

9 Dia niantso an’ i Ziba, mpanompon’ i Saoly, ny mpanjaka ka nanao taminy hoe: Izay rehetra nananan’ i Saoly sy ny mpianakaviny rehetra dia nomeko ny zanakalahin’ ny tomponao.

And he summoned the king Ziba [the] servant of Saul and he said to him all that it belonged to Saul and to all household his I have given to [the] son of master your.

10 Koa ianao sy ny zanakaolahy ary ny mpanomponao no hiasa ny tany ho azy ka hanatitra hanin-kohanina ho an’ ny zanakalahin’ ny tomponao; fa Mefiboseta, zanakalahin’ ny tomponao, hihinana eo amin’ ny latabatro mandrakariva. Ary Ziba nanana zanakalahy dimy ambin’ ny folo sy mpanompo roa-polo.

And you will work for him the land you and sons your and servants your and you will bring and it will be for [the] son of master your food and he will eat it and Mephibosheth [the] son of master your he will eat continually food on table my and [belonged] to Ziba fif-teen sons and twenty servants.

11 Ary hoy Ziba tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Araka izay rehetra nandidianao mpanjaka tompoko no hataon’ ny mpanomponao. Fa ny amin’ i Mefiboseta, hoy Davida, dia hihinana eo amin’ ny latabatro toy ny anankiray amin’ ny zanakalahin’ ny mpanjaka izy.

And he said Ziba to the king according to all that he will command lord my the king servant his so he will do servant your and Mephibosheth [was] eating on table my like one from [the] children of the king.

12 Ary Mefiboseta nanan-janakalahy tanora, Mika no anarany. Ary izay rehetra nitoetra tao an-tranon’ i Ziba dia mpanompon’ i Mefiboseta avokoa.

And [belonged] to Mephibosheth a son young and name his [was] Mica and every resident of [the] house of Ziba [were] servants of Mephibosheth.

13 Ary Mefiboseta nonina tany Jerosalema; fa teo amin’ ny latabatry ny mpanjaka no nihinanany mandrakariva; ary nalemy ny tongony roa.

And Mephibosheth [was] dwelling in Jerusalem for on [the] table of the king continually he [was] eating and he ([was] lame *LA(bh)*) [the] two feet his.
