1 M arkaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, War reerkii Saa'uul wax ka hadhay ma jiraan, aan Yoonaataan aawadiis ugu roonaadee?

And David said, Is there still anyone left of the house of Saul to whom I may show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?

2 R eerkii Saa'uulna waxaa halkaas ka joogay addoon magiciisa la yidhaahdo Siibaa, oo isagii bay Daa'uud ugu yeedheen. Boqorkiina wuxuu ku yidhi, Ma Siibaad baad tahay? Oo isna ku yidhi, Haah, waan ahay anoo addoonkaaga ah.

And of the house of Saul there was a servant whose name was Ziba. When they had called him to David, he said to him, Are you Ziba? He said, I, your servant, am he.

3 M arkaasaa boqorkii yidhi, Miyaan reerkii Saa'uul wax ka hadhin aan Ilaah aawadiis ugu roonaadee? Siibaana wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Waxaa ka hadhay wiil Yoonaataan dhalay, oo curyaan ah.

The king said, Is there not still someone of the house of Saul to whom I may show the mercy and kindness of God? Ziba replied, Jonathan has yet a son who is lame in his feet.

4 K olkaasaa boqorkii isagii ku yidhi, Xaggee buu joogaa? Siibaana wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Wuxuu joogaa guriga Maakiir oo ah ina Cammii'eel ee deggan Loo Debaar.

And the king said, Where is he? Ziba replied, He is in the house of Machir son of Ammiel in Lo-debar.

5 M arkaasaa Boqor Daa'uud u cid diray, oo ka soo kexeeyey gurigii Maakiir oo ahaa ina Cammii'eel, oo ku yiil Loo Debaar.

Then King David sent and brought him from the house of Machir son of Ammiel at Lo-debar.

6 D abadeedna waxaa Daa'uud u yimid Mefiiboshed, oo ahaa ina Yoonaataan, ina Saa'uul, oo intuu wejiga u dhacay ayuu u sujuuday. Kolkaasaa Daa'uud yidhi, War Mefiiboshedow. Oo isna wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Way kan anoo addoonkaaga ah.

And Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David and fell on his face and did obeisance. David said, Mephibosheth! And he answered, Behold your servant!

7 M arkaasaa Daa'uud isagii ku yidhi, Ha cabsan, waayo, xaqiiqa waxaan kuugu roonaan doonaa aabbahaa Yoonaataan aawadiis, oo weliba waxaan kuu celin doonaa dhulkii awowgaa Saa'uul oo dhan; oo miiskaygana had iyo goor wax baad ka cuni doontaa.

David said to him, Fear not, 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, and you shall eat at my table always.

8 O o isna intuu u sujuuday ayuu ku yidhi, Bal maxaad igu aragtay anigoo u eg eey dhintay, anoo addoonkaaga ahna maxaan ahay?

And bowed himself and said, What is your servant, that you should look upon such a dead dog as I am?

9 M arkaasaa boqorkii wuxuu u yeedhay Siibaa, oo ahaa Saa'uul midiidinkiisii, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Kulli wixii Saa'uul lahaa iyo wax alla wixii reerkiisu lahaa oo dhan waxaan siiyey wiilkii sayidkaaga.

Then the king called to Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said to him, I have given your master’s son all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.

10 H addaba waa inaad dhulka u fashaan isaga, adiga iyo wiilashaada iyo addoommadaaduba, oo midhahana waa inaad gudaha soo gelisaa si uu sayidkaaga wiilkiisu u helo wax uu cuno, laakiinse sayidkaaga wiilkiisa Mefiiboshed ahu mar kasta wax buu ka cuni doonaa miiskayga. Haddaba Siibaa wuxuu lahaa shan iyo toban wiil iyo labaatan addoon.

And you shall till the land for him, you, your sons, and your servants, and you shall bring in the produce, that your master’s heir may have food to eat; but Mephibosheth, your master’s son, shall eat always at my table. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

11 M arkaasaa Siibaa wuxuu boqorkii ku yidhi, Wax alla wixii adoo ah boqorka sayidkayga aad igu amarto anoo addoonkaaga ah, ayaan u yeelayaa. Oo boqorkiina wuxuu yidhi, Mefiiboshed wuxuu wax ka cuni doonaa miiskayga sidii mid boqorka wiilashiisa ka mid ah.

Then Ziba said to the king, Your servant will do according to all my lord the king commands. So Mephibosheth ate at David’s table as one of the king’s sons.

12 O o Mefiiboshedna wuxuu lahaa wiil yar, oo magiciisuna wuxuu ahaa Miikaa. Intii Siibaa gurigiisa joogtay oo dhammu addoommay Mefiiboshed u ahaayeen.

Mephibosheth had a young son whose name was Micha. And all who dwelt in Ziba’s house were servants to Mephibosheth.

13 M efiiboshedna wuxuu degganaa Yeruusaalem, waayo, wuxuu had iyo goor wax ka cuni jiray miiskii boqorka, oo labada cagoodna curyaan buu ka ahaa.

So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king’s table, he was lame in both feet.
