If so, I want to show God’s kindness to them.” Ziba replied,“ Yes, one of Jonathan’s sons is still alive. He is crippled in both feet.”“ Where is he?” the king asked.“ In Lo debar,” Ziba told him,“ at the home of Makir son of Ammiel.”So David sent for him and brought him from Makir’s home.His name was Mephibosheth; he was Jonathan’s son and Saul’s grandson. When he came to David, he bowed low to the ground in deep respect. David said,“ Greetings, Mephibosheth.” Mephibosheth replied,“ I am your servant.”“ Don’t be afraid!” David said.“ I intend to show kindness to you because of my promise to your father, Jonathan. I will give you all the property that once belonged to your grandfather Saul, and you will eat here with me at the king’s table!”
