2 Samuel 9
1 David said, “Is there yet any who is left of Saul’s house, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”
Sie len ah David el siyuk, “Ya oasr mwet lula in sou lal Saul? Fin oasr, nga lungse fahkak kulang nu sel ke sripal Jonathan.”
2 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.”
Oasr sie mwet kulansap lal Saul, el pa Ziba, na fwackyang nu sel elan som nu yorol David. Ke el som, tokosra el siyuk, “Ku kom pa Ziba?” Na el topuk, “Aok, nga tupan enenu lom.”
3 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.”
Tokosra el siyuk sel, “Ku oasr mwet lula in sou lal Saul su nga ac ku in kasru ac fahkak kulang nu sel, oana nga tuh wulela nu sin LEUM GOD mu nga ac oru?” Ac Ziba el fahk, “Sie sin wen natul Jonathan el srakna moul, tuh el sukapasla.”
4 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.”
Na tokosra el siyuk, “El aya?” Ziba el fahk, “El oasr lohm sel Machir wen natul Ammiel, in acn Lodebar.”
5 Then King David sent and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.
Ouinge Tokosra David el sapla solal.
6 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!”
Ke Mephibosheth, wen natul Jonathan natul Saul, el tuku el srimi ye mutal David in akfulatyal. Na David el fahk, “Mephibosheth.” Ac el topuk, “Nga pa inge, nga tupan enenu lom.”
7 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.”
David el fahk, “Nikmet sangeng. Nga ac fah kulang nu sum ke sripal Jonathan, papa tomom. Nga fah folokonot acn nukewa lal Saul, papa matu tomom, ac pacl nukewa kom arulana sukosok in tuku nu ke tepu luk uh.”
8 He bowed down, and said, “What is your servant, that you should look at such a dead dog as I am?”
Mephibosheth el sifilpa srimi ac fahk, “Efu kom oru arulana wo nu sik, sruhk nga tia wo liki kosro ngalngul misa soko?”
9 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.
Na tokosra el pangnol Ziba, mwet kulansap lal Saul, ac fahk, “Nga ac folokonang ma nukewa lal Saul, leum lom, ac lun sou lal, nu sel Mephibosheth, wen nutin natul Saul.
10 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.
Kom, ac wen nutum ac mwet kulansap lom, ac fah imai acn inge nu sin sou lal Saul, leum lom. Kowos in orani fokin kosrani ac sang kitalos. Tusruktu Mephibosheth sifacna el ac fah sukosok nu ke tepu luk pacl nukewa.” (Oasr wen singoul limekosr natul Ziba, ac mwet kulansap longoul lal.)
11 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.
Na Ziba el fahk, “O Tokosra, nga fah oru ma nukewa ma kom sapkin.” Ouinge Mephibosheth el wi mongo ke tepu lun tokosra, oapana sie tulik nutin tokosra.
12 Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. All who lived in Ziba’s house were servants to Mephibosheth.
Oasr sie wen fusr natul Mephibosheth pangpang Mica. Mwet nukewa in sou lal Ziba elos mwet kulansapla lal Mephibosheth.
13 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king’s table. He was lame in both his feet.
Ouinge Mephibosheth, su ulla nial kewa, el mutana Jerusalem ac mongo yurin tokosra ke pacl in mongo nukewa.
