撒母耳记下 9
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
大卫厚待米非波设
9 大卫问：“扫罗家还有剩下的人没有？我要因约拿单的缘故，以慈爱待他。” 2 扫罗家有一个仆人，名叫洗巴。有人叫他来见大卫；王问他：“你是洗巴吗？”他回答：“仆人正是。” 3 王又问：“扫罗家还有人没有？我要以 神的慈爱待他。”洗巴回答王说：“还有约拿单的一个儿子，他双脚残废了。” 4 王又问他说：“他在哪里？”洗巴回答王说：“他在罗．底巴亚米利的儿子玛吉家里。” 5 于是大卫王派人去把他从罗．底巴亚米利的儿子玛吉家里接来。 6 扫罗的孙子，约拿单的儿子米非波设来到大卫面前，俯伏叩拜。大卫说：“米非波设！”他回答：“仆人在这里。” 7 大卫对他说：“你不要怕，我必因你父亲约拿单的缘故，以慈爱待你，把你祖父扫罗所有的田地都归还给你；你也可以常常与我同席吃饭。” 8 米非波设再叩拜说：“仆人算甚么？你竟然眷顾我这个像条死狗的人！”
9 王把扫罗的仆人洗巴召来，对他说：“我已经把属于扫罗，以及他全家所有的一切，给了你主人的孙子。 10 你和你的儿子，以及你的仆人，都要替他耕种田地；你要把所收获的拿来，供他食用。你主人的孙子米非波设要常常与我同席吃饭。”洗巴有十五个儿子，二十个仆人。 11 洗巴对王说：“我主我王吩咐仆人的一切，仆人都必遵行。”于是米非波设与大卫（按照《马索拉文本》，“大卫”作“我”；现参照《七十士译本》翻译）同桌吃饭，像是王的一个儿子一样。 12 米非波设有一个小儿子，名叫米迦。住在洗巴家里的人，都作了米非波设的仆人。 13 这样，米非波设住在耶路撒冷，常常与王同席吃饭。可是他的双腿都是瘸的。

English Standard Version
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.

2 Samuel 9
King James Version
9 And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan's sake?
2 And there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba. And when they had called him unto David, the king said unto him, Art thou Ziba? And he said, Thy servant is he.
3 And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God unto him? And Ziba said unto the king, Jonathan hath yet a son, which is lame on his feet.
4 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 Lodebar.
5 Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir, the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.
6 Now when Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, was come unto David, he fell on his face, and did reverence. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he answered, Behold thy servant!
7 And David said unto him, Fear not: for I will surely shew thee kindness for Jonathan thy father's sake, and will restore thee all the land of Saul thy father; and thou shalt eat bread at my table continually.
8 And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?
9 Then the king called to Ziba, Saul's servant, and said unto him, I have given unto thy master's son all that pertained to Saul and to all his house.
10 Thou therefore, and thy sons, and thy servants, shall till the land for him, and thou shalt bring in the fruits, that thy master's son may have food to eat: but Mephibosheth thy master's son shall eat bread alway at my table. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
11 Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king hath commanded his servant, so shall thy servant do. As for Mephibosheth, said the king, he shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.
12 And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Micha. And all that dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants unto Mephibosheth.
13 So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem: for he did eat continually at the king's table; and was lame on both his feet.
