Mefiboset, de zoon van Jonatan
9 Op een dag vroeg David: "Is er nog iemand overgebleven van de familie van Saul? Dan wil ik goed voor hem zijn. Want dat heb ik Jonatan beloofd toen ik met hem een verbond sloot." 2 Er was bij de familie van Saul een dienaar in dienst geweest die Ziba heette. Hij werd bij David geroepen en de koning vroeg hem: "Ben jij Ziba?" Hij antwoordde: "Ja, heer." 3 Toen vroeg de koning hem: "Is er soms nog iemand overgebleven van de familie van Saul? Dan wil ik goed voor hem zijn." Ziba antwoordde: "Er is nog een zoon van Jonatan. Hij heeft kreupele voeten." 4 De koning vroeg: "Waar woont hij?" Ziba antwoordde de koning: "Hij woont bij Machir, de zoon van Ammiël in Lodebar."
5 Toen liet koning David hem bij Machir ophalen. 6 Zo kwam Mefiboset bij David. Hij liet zich voor David op de grond vallen en boog zich diep. David zei: "Mefiboset!" Hij antwoordde: "Ja, heer." 7 David zei tegen hem: "Wees niet bang, want ik zal goed voor je zijn vanwege mijn vriendschap met je vader Jonatan. Ik zal je alle akkers van je grootvader Saul teruggeven. En je mag steeds bij mij aan tafel eten." 8 Mefiboset boog en zei: "Ik verdien het niet dat u zich bezighoudt met een dode hond als ik!" 9 Toen liet de koning de dienaar Ziba weer komen. Hij zei tegen hem: "Alles wat van je heer Saul en zijn familie is geweest, geef ik aan de kleinzoon van je heer. 10 Ik wil dat jij met je zonen en je knechten voor hem het land bewerkt. En jullie moeten voor hem de oogst binnenhalen, zodat hij te eten zal hebben. En Mefiboset mag steeds bij mij aan tafel eten." Ziba had 15 zonen en 20 knechten. 11 Ziba zei tegen de koning: "Ik zal alles doen wat u beveelt, mijn heer de koning." Dus at Mefiboset bij David aan tafel, alsof hij een zoon van de koning was. 12 Mefiboset had een jonge zoon die Micha heette. En iedereen uit de familie van Ziba werkte als knecht van Mefiboset. 13 Mefiboset woonde in Jeruzalem, want hij at steeds bij de koning aan tafel. Hij was aan beide voeten kreupel.

David's Kindness to Mephibosheth
9 And David said, “Is there still anyone left of the house of Saul, that I may (A)show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?” 2 Now there was a servant of the house of Saul whose name was (B)Ziba, and they called him to David. And the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” And he said, “I am your servant.” 3 And the king said, “Is there not still someone of the house of Saul, that I may show (C)the kindness of God to him?” Ziba said to the king, “There is still a son of (D)Jonathan; he is crippled in his feet.” 4 The king said to him, “Where is he?” And Ziba said to the king, “He is in the house of (E)Machir the son of Ammiel, at Lo-debar.” 5 Then King David sent and brought him from the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, at Lo-debar. 6 And (F)Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan, son of Saul, came to David and fell on his face and paid homage. And David said, “Mephibosheth!” And he answered, “Behold, I am your servant.” 7 And David said to him, “Do not fear, (G)for I will show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan, and I will restore to you all the land of Saul your father, and (H)you shall eat at my table always.” 8 And he paid homage and said, “What is your servant, that you should show regard for (I)a dead dog such as I?”
9 Then the king called 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 grandson. 10 And you and your sons and your servants shall till the land for him and shall bring in the produce, that your master's grandson may have bread to eat. But Mephibosheth your master's grandson (J)shall always eat at my table.” Now Ziba had (K)fifteen sons and twenty servants. 11 Then Ziba said to the king, “According to all that my lord the king commands his servant, so will your servant do.” So Mephibosheth (L)ate at David's[a] table, like one of the king's sons. 12 And Mephibosheth had a young son, (M)whose name was Mica. And all who lived in Ziba's house became Mephibosheth's servants. 13 So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for (N)he ate always at the king's table. Now (O)he was lame in both his feet.

David and Mephibosheth
9 David asked, “Is there anyone still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”(A)
2 Now there was a servant of Saul’s household named Ziba.(B) They summoned him to appear before David, and the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?”
“At your service,” he replied.
3 The king asked, “Is there no one still alive from the house of Saul to whom I can show God’s kindness?”
Ziba answered the king, “There is still a son of Jonathan;(C) he is lame(D) in both feet.”
4 “Where is he?” the king asked.
Ziba answered, “He is at the house of Makir(E) son of Ammiel in Lo Debar.”
5 So King David had him brought from Lo Debar, from the house of Makir son of Ammiel.
6 When Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he bowed down to pay him honor.(F)
David said, “Mephibosheth!”
“At your service,” he replied.
7 “Don’t be afraid,” David said to him, “for I will surely show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan.(G) I will restore to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table.(H)”
8 Mephibosheth(I) bowed down and said, “What is your servant, that you should notice a dead dog(J) like me?”
9 Then the king summoned Ziba, Saul’s steward, and said to him, “I have given your master’s grandson everything that belonged to Saul and his family. 10 You and your sons and your servants are to farm the land for him and bring in the crops, so that your master’s grandson(K) may be provided for. And Mephibosheth, grandson of your master, will always eat at my table.” (Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.)
11 Then Ziba said to the king, “Your servant will do whatever my lord the king commands his servant to do.” So Mephibosheth ate at David’s[a] table like one of the king’s sons.(L)
12 Mephibosheth had a young son named Mika, and all the members of Ziba’s household were servants of Mephibosheth.(M) 13 And Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, because he always ate at the king’s table; he was lame in both feet.

大衛厚待米非波設
9 大衛問：“掃羅家還有剩下的人沒有？我要因約拿單的緣故，以慈愛待他。” 2 掃羅家有一個僕人，名叫洗巴。有人叫他來見大衛；王問他：“你是洗巴嗎？”他回答：“僕人正是。” 3 王又問：“掃羅家還有人沒有？我要以 神的慈愛待他。”洗巴回答王說：“還有約拿單的一個兒子，他雙腳殘廢了。” 4 王又問他說：“他在哪裡？”洗巴回答王說：“他在羅．底巴亞米利的兒子瑪吉家裡。” 5 於是大衛王派人去把他從羅．底巴亞米利的兒子瑪吉家裡接來。 6 掃羅的孫子，約拿單的兒子米非波設來到大衛面前，俯伏叩拜。大衛說：“米非波設！”他回答：“僕人在這裡。” 7 大衛對他說：“你不要怕，我必因你父親約拿單的緣故，以慈愛待你，把你祖父掃羅所有的田地都歸還給你；你也可以常常與我同席吃飯。” 8 米非波設再叩拜說：“僕人算甚麼？你竟然眷顧我這個像條死狗的人！”
9 王把掃羅的僕人洗巴召來，對他說：“我已經把屬於掃羅，以及他全家所有的一切，給了你主人的孫子。 10 你和你的兒子，以及你的僕人，都要替他耕種田地；你要把所收穫的拿來，供他食用。你主人的孫子米非波設要常常與我同席吃飯。”洗巴有十五個兒子，二十個僕人。 11 洗巴對王說：“我主我王吩咐僕人的一切，僕人都必遵行。”於是米非波設與大衛（按照《馬索拉文本》，“大衛”作“我”；現參照《七十士譯本》翻譯）同桌吃飯，像是王的一個兒子一樣。 12 米非波設有一個小兒子，名叫米迦。住在洗巴家裡的人，都作了米非波設的僕人。 13 這樣，米非波設住在耶路撒冷，常常與王同席吃飯。可是他的雙腿都是瘸的。
