2 Samuel 9:8-10

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁸ Mephibosheth bowed down ⌞again⌟ and answered, “Who am I that you would look at a dead dog like me?”

⁹ Then the king called for Ziba, Saul’s servant, and said to him, “I have given your master’s grandson everything that belonged to Saul and his family. ¹⁰ You, your sons, and your servants should farm the land for him and harvest ⌞the crops⌟ so that your master’s family will have food to eat. However, your master’s grandson Mephibosheth will always eat at my table.” (Ziba had 15 sons and 20 servants.)
