David’s mercy to Mefiboshet

19:24 David’s mercy to Mefiboshet

24Then Shaul’s grandson Mefiboshet came down to meet the king. He hadn’t shaved or washed his feet, and he hadn’t washed his clothes since the king had left Yerushalem.[ref] 25He came from Yerushalem down to the Yordan to meet the king who asked him, “Why didn’t you not come with me, Mefiboshet?”

26“My master the king,” Mefiboshet replied, “my servant deceived me. I, your servant, had said to get my donkey saddled so I could ride it and go with you, because as you know, your servant is lame. 27Then my servant lied to you about me. But my master the king is like God’s messenger, so do whatever you consider to be appropriate. 28All my grandfather’s household expected that we’d be executed, yet to placed me, your servant, among those who eat at your table, so I don’t have the right to request anything further from the king.”

29Say no more,” said the king. “That land will be divided for you and Tsiva.”

30Actually, let him take everything,” Mefiboshet responded. “since my master the king has been able to return safely.”
