9Then David said, "Is there yet anyone left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"H1732H559H3426H3498H1004H7586H6213H2617H30832Now there was a servant of the house of Saul whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David; and the king said to him, "Are you Ziba?" And he said, "[I am] your servant."H1004H7586H5650H8034H6717H7121H1732H4428H559H6717H559H56503And the king said, "Is there not yet anyone of the house of Saul to whom I may show the kindness of God?" And Ziba said to the king, "There is still a son of Jonathan who is crippled in both feet."H4428H559H657H376H1004H7586H6213H2617H430H6717H559H4428H3083H1121H5223H72724So 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 Lo-debar. "H4428H559H375H6717H559H4428H1004H4353H1121H5988H38105Then King David sent and brought him from the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo-debar.H4428H1732H7971H3947H1004H4353H1121H5988H38106And Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, came to David and fell on his face and prostrated himself. And David said, "Mephibosheth." And he said, "Here is your servant!"H4648H1121H3083H1121H7586H935H1732H5307H6440H7812H1732H559H4648H559H56507And David said to him, "Do not fear, for I will surely show kindness to you for the sake of your father Jonathan, and will restore to you all the land of your grandfather Saul; and you shall eat at my table regularly."H1732H559H3372H6213H6213H2617H3083H1H7725H7704H7586H1H398H3899H7979H85488Again he prostrated himself and said, "What is your servant, that you should regard a dead dog like me?"H7812H559H5650H6437H4191H36119Then the king called Saul's servant Ziba, and said to him, "All that belonged to Saul and to all his house I have given to your master's grandson.H4428H7121H6717H7586H5288H559H5414H113H1121H1961H7586H100410"And you and your sons and your servants shall cultivate the land for him, and you shall bring in [the produce] so that your master's grandson may have food; nevertheless Mephibosheth your master's grandson shall eat at my table regularly." Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.H1121H5650H5647H127H935H113H1121H3899H398H4648H113H1121H398H3899H8548H7979H6717H2568H6240H1121H6242H565011Then Ziba said to the king, "According to all that my lord the king commands his servant so your servant will do." So Mephibosheth ate at David's table as one of the king's sons.H559H6717H4428H113H4428H6680H5650H5650H6213H4648H398H7979H259H4428H112112And Mephibosheth had a young son whose name was Mica. And all who lived in the house of Ziba were servants to Mephibosheth.H4648H6996H1121H8034H4316H4186H1004H6717H5650H464813So Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem, for he ate at the king's table regularly. Now he was lame in both feet.H4648H3427H3389H398H8548H4428H7979H6455H8147H7272
