2 Samuel 9
1 David said, "Is there yet any who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"
Otu ụbọchị, Devid jụrụ ajụjụ sị, “O nwere onye fọdụrụ ndụ nʼezinaụlọ Sọl? Achọrọ m igosi onye ahụ obi ebere nʼihi Jonatan.”
2 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."
Ọ nụrụ ihe banyere otu nwoke aha ya bụ Ziba, onye bụ otu nʼime ndị ohu Sọl. O ziri ozi ka a kpọọ ya. Mgbe ọ bịara nʼihu Devid, eze jụrụ ya sị, “Ọ bụ gị bụ Ziba?” Ọ zara sị, “E, onyenwe m, ọ bụ m ohu gị.”
3 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."
Eze jụrụ ya sị, “Ọ dị onye fọdụrụ ndụ nʼezinaụlọ Sọl? Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị onye fọdụrụ, achọrọ m igosi ya ụdị obiọma Chineke na-egosi.” Ziba zara ya sị, “Otu nwa nwoke Jonatan, nke dara ngwụrọ nọ ndụ.”
4 The king said to him, "Where is he?" Ziba said to the king, "Look, he is in the house of Makir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar."
Eze jụrụ, “Ebee ka ọ nọ?” Ziba zaghachiri, “Ọ nọ na Lo Deba, nʼụlọ Makia, nwa Amiel.”
5 Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Makir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.
Ya mere eze Devid ziri ka e site nʼobodo Lo Deba, nʼụlọ Makia nwa Amiel kpọta ya.
6 Mippibaal, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, and fell on his face, and showed respect. David said, "Mippibaal." He answered, "Look, your servant."
Mgbe Mefiboshet nwa Jonatan, nwa Sọl, bịara nʼebe Devid nọ, o hulatara isi, kpọọrọ ya isiala, nʼọnọdụ nsọpụrụ. Mgbe ahụ, Devid kpọrọ ya aha sị, “Mefiboshet,” Mefiboshet zara sị ya, “A bụ m ohu gị.”
7 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."
Ma Devid sịrị ya, “Atụla egwu, nʼezie, aga m egosi gị obiọma nʼihi nna gị Jonatan. Aga m enyeghachi gị ala niile nna nna gị Sọl nwere. Ma ị ga-eso soro m na-eri nri na tebul m oge niile.”
8 He bowed down, and said, "What is your servant, that you should look on such a dead dog as I am?"
Mefiboshet dara nʼala nʼihu eze sị, “Eze, onye ka m bụ i ji egosi nkịta nwụrụ anwụ dịka m obi ebere?”
9 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.
Eze kpọrọ Ziba ohu Sọl ahụ sị ya, “Enyeghachila m nwa nwa nna gị ukwu ihe niile Sọl na ụlọ ya nwere.
10 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.
Gị na ụmụ gị ndị ikom na ndị ozi gị ga-arụ ọrụ nʼubi ya ịrụpụta nri. Ma Mefiboshet, nwa nwa nna gị ukwu ga na-eri ihe na tebul m.” Ziba, nwere ụmụ ndị ikom iri na ise, na iri ndị ozi abụọ.
11 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.
Ọ sịrị eze, “Onyenwe m, ohu gị ga-eme ihe niile eze nyere m nʼiwu.” Site nʼoge ahụ, Mefiboshet riri nri na tebul Devid dịka ọ bụ otu nʼime ụmụ ndị ikom eze.
12 Mippibaal had a young son, whose name was Micah. All that lived in the house of Ziba were servants to Mippibaal.
Mefiboshet nwekwara otu nwa nwoke aha ya bụ Mika. Ziba na ndị niile bi nʼụlọ ya niile ghọrọ ndị ohu Mefiboshet.
13 So Mippibaal lived in Jerusalem; for he ate continually at the king's table. He was lame in both his feet.
Ma Mefiboshet biri na Jerusalem nʼihi na ọ bụ na tebul eze ka ọ na-eri nri mgbe niile. Ọ bụ onye dara ngwụrọ nʼụkwụ ya abụọ.
