撒母耳記下 9
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Berean Standard Bible
1大衛 問說：「 掃羅 家還有剩下的人沒有？我要因 約拿單 的緣故向他施恩。」
1Then David asked, “Is there anyone left from the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for the sake of Jonathan?”
2掃羅 家有一個僕人，名叫 洗巴 ，有人叫他來見 大衛 ，王問他說：「你是 洗巴 嗎？」回答說：「僕人是。」
2And there was a servant of Saul’s family named Ziba. They summoned him to David, and the king inquired, “Are you Ziba?” “I am your servant,” he replied.
3王說：「 掃羅 家還有人沒有？我要照上帝的慈愛恩待他。」 洗巴 對王說：「還有 約拿單 的一個兒子，是瘸腿的。」
3So the king asked, “Is there anyone left of Saul’s family to whom I can show the kindness of God?” Ziba answered, “There is still Jonathan’s son, who is lame in both feet.”
4王說：「他在哪裏？」 洗巴 對王說：「他在 羅‧底巴 ， 亞米利 的兒子 瑪吉 家裏。」
4“Where is he?” replied the king. And Ziba said, “Indeed, he is in Lo-debar at the house of Machir son of Ammiel.”
5於是 大衛 王打發人去，從 羅‧底巴 亞米利 的兒子 瑪吉 家裏召了他來。
5So King David had him brought from the house of Machir son of Ammiel in Lo-debar.
6掃羅 的孫子、 約拿單 的兒子 米非波設 來見 大衛 ，伏地叩拜。 大衛 說：「 米非波設 ！」 米非波設 說：「僕人在此。」
6And when Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he fell facedown in reverence. Then David said, “Mephibosheth!” “I am your servant,” he replied.
7大衛 說：「你不要懼怕，我必因你父親 約拿單 的緣故施恩與你，將你祖父 掃羅 的一切田地都歸還你；你也可以常與我同席吃飯。」
7“Do not be afraid,” said David, “for surely I will show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all the land of your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table.”
8米非波設 又叩拜，說：「僕人算甚麼，不過如死狗一般，竟蒙王這樣眷顧！」
8Mephibosheth bowed down and said, “What is your servant, that you should show regard for a dead dog like me?”
9王召了 掃羅 的僕人 洗巴 來，對他說：「我已將屬 掃羅 和他的一切家產都賜給你主人的兒子了。
9Then the king summoned Saul’s servant Ziba and said to him, “I have given to your master’s grandson all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.
10你和你的眾子、僕人要為你主人的兒子 米非波設 耕種田地，把所產的拿來供他食用；他卻要常與我同席吃飯。」 洗巴 有十五個兒子，二十個僕人。
10You and your sons and servants are to work the ground for him and bring in the harvest, so that your master’s grandson may have food to eat. But Mephibosheth, your master’s grandson, is always to eat at my table.” Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
11洗巴 對王說：「凡我主我王吩咐僕人的，僕人都必遵行。」王又說：「 米非波設 必與我同席吃飯，如王的兒子一樣。」
11And Ziba said to the king, “Your servant will do all that my lord the king has commanded.” So Mephibosheth ate at David’s table like one of the king’s own sons.
12米非波設 有一個小兒子，名叫 米迦 。凡住在 洗巴 家裏的人都作了 米非波設 的僕人。
12And Mephibosheth had a young son named Mica, and all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants of Mephibosheth.
13於是 米非波設 住在 耶路撒冷 ，常與王同席吃飯。他兩腿都是瘸的。
13So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, because he always ate at the king’s table, and he was lame in both feet.
