¹And David said, Is there yet any that is left of the house of Saul, that I may shew him kindness for Jonathan's sake?

¹A Dávid riekol: Či je ešte niekto, kto by bol pozostal z domu Saulovho? Lebo by som mu chcel učiniť milosť pre Jonatána.

²And there was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba; and they called him to David. And the king said to him, Art thou Ziba? And he said, Thy servant!

²A dom Saulov mal sluhu, ktorému bolo meno Cíba. A zavolali ho k Dávidovi. A kráľ mu riekol: Či si ty Cíba? A on odpovedal: Som, tvoj služobník.

³And the king said, Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may shew the kindness of God to him? And Ziba said to the king, Jonathan has yet a son, who is lame on [his] feet.

³Vtedy riekol kráľ: Či nie je už viacej nikoho z domu Saulovho? Lebo by som mu chcel učiniť milosť Božiu. A Cíba povedal kráľovi: Je ešte syn Jonatánov, chromý na nohy.

⁴And the king said to him, Where is he? And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lodebar.

⁴A kráľ mu riekol: Kde je? A Cíba odpovedal kráľovi: Hľa, je v dome Machíra, syna Ammielovho, v Ló-debáre.

⁵And king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lodebar.

⁵Vtedy poslal kráľ Dávid po neho a vzal ho z domu Machíra, syna Ammielovho, z Ló-debára.

⁶And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, and fell on his face and did obeisance. And David said, Mephibosheth. And he said, Behold thy servant!

⁶A keď prišiel Mefibóšet, syn Jonatána, syna Saulovho, k Dávidovi, padol na svoju tvár a poklonil sa. A Dávid riekol: Mefibóšete! A on povedal: Hľa, tvoj služobník.

⁷And David said to him, Fear not; for I will certainly 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.

⁷A Dávid mu riekol: Neboj sa, lebo ti istotne učiním milosť pre Jonatána, tvojho otca, a navrátim ti všetko pole Saula, tvojho otca, a ty budeš jesť chlieb pri mojom stole vždycky.

⁸And he bowed himself, and said, What is thy servant, that thou shouldest look upon such a dead dog as I am?

⁸Vtedy sa poklonil a povedal: Čo je tvoj služobník, že si pohliadol na mŕtveho psa, aký som ja?

⁹Then the king called Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, I have given to thy master's son all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.

⁹Potom zavolal kráľ Cíbu, služobníka Saulovho, a riekol mu: Všetko, čo mal Saul a celý jeho dom, dal som synovi tvojho pána.

¹⁰And thou, 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. And Mephibosheth thy master's son shall eat bread at my table continually. Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

¹⁰A budeš mu obrábať zem, ty i tvoji synovia i tvoji sluhovia a budeš donášať, a tak bude mať syn tvojho pána svoj chlieb a bude ho jesť, ale sám Mifibóšet, syn tvojho pána, bude vždycky jesť chlieb pri mojom stole. - A Cíba mal pätnásť synov a dvadsať sluhov.

¹¹And Ziba said to the king, According to all that my lord the king has commanded his servant, so will thy servant do. And Mephibosheth [said David] shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.

¹¹Na to povedal Cíba kráľovi: Všetko, jako prikázal môj pán kráľ svojmu služobníkovi, tak učiní tvoj služobník. Ale Mefibóšet, jie pri mojom stole jako niektorý zo synov kráľových.

¹²And Mephibosheth had a young son, whose name was Mica. And all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.

¹²A Mefibóšet mal malého syna, ktorému bolo meno Mícha. A všetci, ktorí bývali v dome Cíbovom, boli služobníkmi Mefibóšetovi.

¹³So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem; for he did eat continually at the king's table. And he was lame on both his feet.

¹³A Mefibóšet býval v Jeruzaleme, pretože on vždy jedol pri stole kráľovom. A kríval na obe svoje nohy.
