2 Samuel 9:8-10
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
8 He did obeisance and said, ‘What is your servant, that you should look upon a dead dog such as I am?’
9 Then the king summoned Saul’s servant Ziba, and said to him, ‘All that belonged to Saul and to all his house I have given to your master’s grandson. 10 You and your sons and your servants shall till the land for him, and shall bring in the produce, so that your master’s grandson may have food to eat; but your master’s grandson Mephibosheth[a] shall always eat at my table.’ Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
