2 Samuel 9:6 (NET) New English Translation

1 Then David asked, "Is anyone still left from the family of Saul, so that I may extend kindness to him for the sake of Jonathan?"
2 Now there was a servant from Saul's house named Ziba, so he was summoned to David. The king asked him, "Are you Ziba?" He replied, "At your service."
3 The king asked, "Is there not someone left from Saul's family, that I may extend God's kindness to him?" Ziba said to the king, "One of Jonathan's sons is left; both of his feet are crippled."
4 The king asked him, "Where is he?" Ziba told the king, "He is at the house of Makir son of Ammiel in Lo Debar.
5 So King David had him brought from the house of Makir son of Ammiel in Lo Debar.
6 When Mephibosheth son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, came to David, he bowed low with his face toward the ground. David said, "Mephibosheth?" He replied, "Yes, at your service."
7 David said to him, "Don't be afraid, because I will certainly extend kindness to you for the sake of Jonathan your father. You will be a regular guest at my table."
8 Then Mephibosheth bowed and said, "Of what importance am I, your servant, that you show regard for a dead dog like me?"
9 Then the king summoned Ziba, Saul's attendant, and said to him, "Everything that belonged to Saul and to his entire house I hereby give to your master's grandson.
10 You will cultivate the land for him� you and your sons and your servants. You will bring its produce and it will be food for your master's grandson to eat. But Mephibosheth, your master's grandson, will be a regular guest at my table." (Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.)
11 Ziba said to the king, "Your servant will do everything that my lord the king has instructed his servant to do." So Mephibosheth was a regular guest at David's table, just as though he were one of the king's sons.
12 Now Mephibosheth had a young son whose name was Mica. All the members of Ziba's household were Mephibosheth's servants.
13 Mephibosheth was living in Jerusalem, for he was a regular guest at the king's table. But both his feet were crippled.
1 And David H1732 said, H559 Is there H3426 yet H5750 any H834 that is left H3498 of the house H1004 of Saul, H7586 that I may show H6213 H5973 him kindness H2617 for Jonathan's H3129 sake H5668 ?
2 And there was of the house H1004 of Saul H7586 a servant H5650 whose name H8034 was Ziba. H6717 And when they had called H7121 him unto H413 David, H1732 the king H4428 said H559 unto H413 him, Art thou H859 Ziba H6717 ? And he said, H559 Thy servant H5650 is he .
3 And the king H4428 said, H559 Is there not H657 yet H5750 any H376 of the house H1004 of Saul, H7586 that I may show H6213 the kindness H2617 of God H430 unto H5973 him? And Ziba H6717 said H559 unto H413 the king, H4428 Jonathan H3083 hath yet H5750 a son, H1121 which is lame H5223 on his feet. H7272
4 And the king H4428 said H559 unto him, Where H375 is he H1931 ? And Ziba H6717 said H559 unto H413 the king, H4428 Behold, H2009 he H1931 is in the house H1004 of Machir, H4353 the son H1121 of Ammiel, H5988 in Lo- H3810 debar.
5 Then king H4428 David H1732 sent, H7971 and fetched H3947 him out of the house H4480 H1004 of Machir, H4353 the son H1121 of Ammiel, H5988 from Lo H4480 H3810 -debar.
6 Now when Mephibosheth, H4648 the son H1121 of Jonathan, H3083 the son H1121 of Saul, H7586 was come H935 unto H413 David, H1732 he fell H5307 on H5921 his face, H6440 and did reverence. H7812 And David H1732 said, H559 Mephibosheth. H4648 And he answered, H559 Behold H2009 thy servant H5650 !
7 And David H1732 said H559 unto him, Fear H3372 not: H408 for H3588 I will surely show H6213 H6213 H5973 thee kindness H2617 for Jonathan H3083 thy father's H1 sake, H5668 and will restore H7725 thee H853 all H3605 the land H7704 of Saul H7586 thy father; H1 and thou H859 shalt eat H398 bread H3899 at H5921 my table H7979 continually. H8548
8 And he bowed himself, H7812 and said, H559 What H4100 is thy servant, H5650 that H3588 thou shouldest look H6437 upon H413 such H834 a dead H4191 dog H3611 as I H3644 am ?
9 Then the king H4428 called H7121 to H413 Ziba, H6717 Saul's H7586 servant, H5288 and said H559 unto H413 him , I have given H5414 unto thy master's H113 son H1121 all H3605 that H834 pertained H1961 to Saul H7586 and to all H3605 his house. H1004
10 Thou H859 therefore , and thy sons, H1121 and thy servants, H5650 shall till H5647 H853 the land H127 for him , and thou shalt bring H935 in the fruits , that thy master's H113 son H1121 may have H1961 food H3899 to eat: H398 but Mephibosheth H4648 thy master's H113 son H1121 shall eat H398 bread H3899 always H8548 at H5921 my table. H7979 Now Ziba H6717 had fifteen H2568 H6240 sons H1121 and twenty H6242 servants. H5650
11 Then said H559 Ziba H6717 unto H413 the king, H4428 According to all H3605 that H834 my lord H113 the king H4428 hath commanded his servant, H5650 so H3651 shall thy servant H5650 do. H6213 As for Mephibosheth, H4648 said the king , he shall eat H398 at H5921 my table, H7979 as one H259 of the king's sons H4480 H1121. H4428
12 And Mephibosheth H4648 had a young H6996 son, H1121 whose name H8034 was Micha. H4316 And all H3605 that dwelt H4186 in the house H1004 of Ziba H6717 were servants H5650 unto Mephibosheth. H4648
13 So Mephibosheth H4648 dwelt H3427 in Jerusalem: H3389 for H3588 he H1931 did eat H398 continually H8548 at H5921 the king's H4428 table; H7979 and was lame H6455 on both H8147 his feet. H7272
