2 Samuel 9:7-13
7DavidH1732 saidH559 to him, “Do not fearH3372, for 1I will surelyH6213 showH6213 kindnessH2617 to you for the sakeH5668 of your fatherH1 JonathanH3083, and 2will restoreH7725 to you allH3605 the 3landH7704 of your 4grandfatherH1 SaulH7586; and 5you shall 6eatH398 at my tableH7979 regularlyH8548.” 8Again he prostratedH7812 himself and saidH559, “WhatH4100 is your servantH5650, that you should regardH6437 7a deadH4191 dogH3611 likeH3644 me?”
9Then the kingH4428 calledH7121 Saul’sH7586 servantH5288 ZibaH6717 and saidH559 to him, “8AllH3605 that belongedH1961 to SaulH7586 and to allH3605 his houseH1004 I have givenH5414 to your master’sH113 9grandsonH1121. 10You and your sonsH1121 and your servantsH5650 shall cultivateH5647 the landH127 for him, and you shall bringH935 in the produce so that your master’sH113 grandsonH1121 may haveH1961 foodH3899; nevertheless 10MephiboshethH4648 your master’sH113 grandsonH1121 11shall 12eatH398 at my tableH7979 regularlyH8548.” Now ZibaH6717 had fifteenH2568H6240 sonsH1121 and twentyH6242 servantsH5650. 11Then ZibaH6717 saidH559 to the kingH4428, “According 13to allH3605 that my lordH113 the kingH4428 commandsH6680 his servantH5650 soH3651 your servantH5650 will doH6213.” So MephiboshethH4648 ateH398 at 14David’s tableH7979 as oneH259 of the king’sH4428 sonsH1121. 12MephiboshethH4648 had a youngH6996 sonH1121 whose nameH8034 was MicaH4316. And allH3605 who livedH4186 in the houseH1004 of ZibaH6717 were servantsH5650 to MephiboshethH4648. 13So MephiboshethH4648 livedH3427 in JerusalemH3389, for 15he ateH398 at the king’sH4428 tableH7979 regularlyH8548. Now 16he was lameH6455 in bothH8147 feetH7272.
