2 Samuel 9:10-13

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰ You and your 15 sons and 20 servants will work for Mephibosheth. You will farm his land and bring in his crops, so that Saul's family and servants^[a] will have food. But Mephibosheth will always eat with me at my table.”

^11-13 Ziba replied, “Your Majesty, I will do exactly what you tell me to do.” So Ziba's family and servants worked for Mephibosheth.

Mephibosheth was lame, but he lived in Jerusalem and ate at David's^[b] table, just like one of David's own sons. And he had a young son of his own, named Mica.
