2 Samuel 9:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ So David sent his men to bring him from the house of Ammiel's son, Makir, in Lo-Debar.

⁶ Then Jonathan's son Mephibosheth, grandson of Saul, came to David. He bent his body down to the ground to respect David.

David said, ‘Mephibosheth!’

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

⁷ David said to him, ‘Do not be afraid. I will be kind to you because your father Jonathan was my friend. I will give back to you all the land which belonged to your grandfather, Saul. You will always be able to eat here with me.’
