David helps Mephibosheth

9 David asked, ‘Is there anyone from Saul's family who is still alive? I want to be kind to them because Jonathan was my friend.’

² Saul's family had a servant called Ziba. So they asked him to come to see David. The king said to him, ‘Are you Ziba?’

Ziba replied, ‘Yes, I am your servant.’

³ The king asked him, ‘Is there anyone from Saul's family who is still alive? I want to be kind to them because of God's faithful love for his people.’^[a]

Ziba replied, ‘One of Jonathan's sons still lives. But both his feet are weak so that he cannot walk properly.’
