2 Samuel 9
1 Pada suatu hari Daud bertanya, "Masih adakah orang yang hidup dari keluarga Saul? Jika ada, aku ingin berbuat baik kepadanya demi Yonatan."
And David said, Is there yet any one that is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for the sake of Jonathan?
2 Keluarga Saul mempunyai budak yang bernama Ziba, dan ia disuruh menghadap Raja Daud. Raja bertanya, "Engkaukah Ziba?" "Ya, Baginda," jawabnya.
And the house of Saul had a servant whose name was Ziba; and they called him unto David; and the king said unto him, Art thou Ziba? And be said, Thy servant [is it].
3 Kemudian raja bertanya, "Masih adakah orang yang hidup dari keluarga Saul? Aku ingin berbuat baik kepadanya, seperti yang telah kujanjikan kepada Allah." Ziba menjawab, "Masih ada seorang putra Yonatan. Dia pincang."
And the king said, Is there no one left any more of the house of Saul, that I may show him the kindness of God! And Ziba said unto the king, There is yet a son of Jonathan, lame on both feet.
4 "Di mana dia?" tanya raja. "Di Lodebar, di rumah Makhir anak Amiel," jawab Ziba.
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 Lalu Raja Daud menyuruh memanggil putra Yonatan itu.
And king David sent, and had him taken out of the house of Machir, the son of 'Ammiel, from Lo-debar.
6 Putra Yonatan itu bernama Mefiboset. Ketika ia datang, ia sujud menghormati Daud. Daud menyapa dia, katanya, "Mefiboset," dan dia menjawab, "Ya, Baginda."
And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came unto David, and he fell on his face, and bowed himself. And David said, Mephibosheth; And he answered, Here is thy servant!
7 Daud berkata, "Jangan takut. Aku akan bermurah hati kepadamu demi Yonatan ayahmu. Semua tanah kakekmu Saul, akan kukembalikan kepadamu dan untuk selama-lamanya engkau boleh makan di istana."
And David said unto him, Fear not; for I will surely show thee kindness for the sake of Jonathan thy father, and I will restore unto thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.
8 Mefiboset sujud lagi dan berkata, "Apalah artinya hamba ini! Mengapa Baginda begitu baik kepada hamba?"
And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldst turn thy regard unto such a dead dog as I am?
9 Lalu raja memanggil Ziba budak Saul itu, dan berkata, "Segala peninggalan Saul dan keluarganya kuberikan kepada cucu tuanmu ini.
Then called the king for Ziba, Saul's servant, and said unto him, all that hath pertained to Saul and to all his house have I given unto thy master's son.
10 Engkau dan anak-anakmu serta pembantumu harus mengerjakan tanah itu bagi keluarga tuanmu Saul, dan berikanlah hasil tanah itu kepada mereka untuk mencukupi kebutuhan mereka. Tetapi Mefiboset boleh makan di istana selama-lamanya." (Ziba mempunyai 15 orang anak laki-laki dan 20 orang budak).
And thou shalt till for him the land, thou, and thy sons, and thy servants, and thou shalt bring in [the product], that thy master's son may have bread which he can eat; but Mephibosheth thy master's son shall eat continually bread at my table. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
11 Ziba menjawab kepada raja, "Segala perintah Baginda akan hamba laksanakan." Jadi Mefiboset makan sehidangan dengan raja, seperti putra Raja Daud sendiri.
And Ziba said unto the king, In accordance with all that my Lord the king may command his servant, so will thy servant do. And Mephibosheth [said the king] shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.
12 Mefiboset mempunyai putra yang bernama Mikha. Semua anggota keluarga Ziba menjadi hamba-hamba Mefiboset.
And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Micha. And all that dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants unto Mephibosheth.
13 Demikianlah Mefiboset yang cacat pada kedua kakinya itu tinggal di Yerusalem dan selalu makan di istana.
And Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem; for he ate continually at the king's table; and he was lame on both his feet.
