1	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! [Mephibosheth: also called Meribbaal]
			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.
