And David¹⁷³² said,⁵⁵⁹ Is there³⁴²⁶ yet any that is left³⁴⁹⁸ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Saul,⁷⁵⁸⁶ that I may shew⁶²¹³ him kindness²⁶¹⁷ for Jonathan's³⁰⁸³ sake?

And there was of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ a servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ whose name⁸⁰³⁴ was Ziba.⁶⁷¹⁷ And when they had called⁷¹²¹ him unto David,¹⁷³² the king⁴⁴²⁸ said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Art thou Ziba?⁶⁷¹⁷ And he said,⁵⁵⁹ Thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ is he.

And the king⁴⁴²⁸ said,⁵⁵⁹ Is there not⁶⁵⁷ yet any³⁷⁶ of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Saul,⁷⁵⁸⁶ that I may shew⁶²¹³ the kindness²⁶¹⁷ of Elohim⁴³⁰ unto him? And Ziba⁶⁷¹⁷ said⁵⁵⁹ unto the king,⁴⁴²⁸ Jonathan³⁰⁸³ hath yet a son,¹¹²¹ which is lame⁵²²³ on his feet.⁷²⁷²

And the king⁴⁴²⁸ said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Where³⁷⁵ is he? And Ziba⁶⁷¹⁷ said⁵⁵⁹ unto the king,⁴⁴²⁸ Behold, he is in the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Machir,⁴³⁵³ the son¹¹²¹ of Ammiel,⁵⁹⁸⁸ in Lodebar.³⁸¹⁰

Then king⁴⁴²⁸ David¹⁷³² sent,⁷⁹⁷¹ and fetched³⁹⁴⁷ him out of the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Machir,⁴³⁵³ the son¹¹²¹ of Ammiel,⁵⁹⁸⁸ from Lodebar.³⁸¹⁰

Now when Mephibosheth,⁴⁶⁴⁸ the son¹¹²¹ of Jonathan,³⁰⁸³ the son¹¹²¹ of Saul,⁷⁵⁸⁶ was come⁹³⁵ unto David,¹⁷³² he fell⁵³⁰⁷ on his face,⁶⁴⁴⁰ and did reverence.⁷⁸¹² And David¹⁷³² said,⁵⁵⁹ Mephibosheth.⁴⁶⁴⁸ And he answered,⁵⁵⁹ Behold thy servant!⁵⁶⁵⁰

And David¹⁷³² said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Fear³³⁷² not: for I will surely⁶²¹³ shew⁶²¹³ thee kindness²⁶¹⁷ for Jonathan³⁰⁸³ thy father's¹ sake, and will restore⁷⁷²⁵ thee all the land⁷⁷⁰⁴ of Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ thy father;¹ and thou shalt eat³⁹⁸ bread³⁸⁹⁹ at my table⁷⁹⁷⁹ continually.⁸⁵⁴⁸

And he bowed⁷⁸¹² himself, and said,⁵⁵⁹ What is thy servant,⁵⁶⁵⁰ that thou shouldest look⁶⁴³⁷ upon such a dead⁴¹⁹¹ dog³⁶¹¹ as I am?

Then the king⁴⁴²⁸ called⁷¹²¹ to Ziba,⁶⁷¹⁷ Saul's⁷⁵⁸⁶ servant,⁵²⁸⁸ and said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, I have given⁵⁴¹⁴ unto thy master's¹¹³ son¹¹²¹ all that pertained¹⁹⁶¹ to Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ and to all his house.¹⁰⁰⁴

Thou therefore, and thy sons,¹¹²¹ and thy servants,⁵⁶⁵⁰ shall till⁵⁶⁴⁷ the land¹²⁷ for him, and thou shalt bring in⁹³⁵ the fruits, that thy master's¹¹³ son¹¹²¹ may have food³⁸⁹⁹ to eat:³⁹⁸ but Mephibosheth⁴⁶⁴⁸ thy master's¹¹³ son¹¹²¹ shall eat³⁹⁸ bread³⁸⁹⁹ alway⁸⁵⁴⁸ at my table.⁷⁹⁷⁹ Now Ziba⁶⁷¹⁷ had fifteen²⁵⁶⁸ sons¹¹²¹ and twenty⁶²⁴² servants.⁵⁶⁵⁰

Then said⁵⁵⁹ Ziba⁶⁷¹⁷ unto the king,⁴⁴²⁸ According to all that my sovereign¹¹³ the king⁴⁴²⁸ hath commanded⁶⁶⁸⁰ his servant,⁵⁶⁵⁰ so shall thy servant⁵⁶⁵⁰ do.⁶²¹³ As for Mephibosheth,⁴⁶⁴⁸ said the king, he shall eat³⁹⁸ at my table,⁷⁹⁷⁹ as one²⁵⁹ of the king's⁴⁴²⁸ sons.¹¹²¹

And Mephibosheth⁴⁶⁴⁸ had a young⁶⁹⁹⁶ son,¹¹²¹ whose name⁸⁰³⁴ was Micha.⁴³¹⁶ And all that dwelt⁴¹⁸⁶ in the house¹⁰⁰⁴ of Ziba⁶⁷¹⁷ were servants⁵⁶⁵⁰ unto Mephibosheth.⁴⁶⁴⁸

So Mephibosheth⁴⁶⁴⁸ dwelt³⁴²⁷ in Jerusalem:³³⁸⁹ for he did eat³⁹⁸ continually⁸⁵⁴⁸ at the king's⁴⁴²⁸ table;⁷⁹⁷⁹ and was lame⁶⁴⁵⁵ on both⁸¹⁴⁷ his feet.⁷²⁷²
