2 Samuel 9:5-7

Contemporary English Version

^5-6 David sent some servants to bring Jonathan's son from Lo-Debar. His name was Mephibosheth,^[a] and he was the grandson of Saul. He came to David and knelt down.

David asked, “Are you Mephibosheth?”

“Yes, I am, Your Majesty.”

⁷ David said, “Don't be afraid. I'll be kind to you because Jonathan was your father. I'm going to give you back the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul. Besides that, you will always eat with me at my table.”
