16:1 Dishonest Tsiva helps David
16 David hadn’t gone far past the summit when, wow, he was meet by Mefiboshet’s servant Tsiva with a pair of saddled donkeys loaded with two hundred bread rools, one hundred cakes of raisins, one hundred pieces of fresh fruit, and a leather container of wine.[ref] 2 “What’s all that?” the king asked.
“The donkeys are for the king’s family to ride,” Tsiva answered, “and the bread and fruits are for the young men to eat, and the wine is for the people to drink who feel faint in the wilderness.”
3 “So where’s your master’s grandson Mefiboshet?” asked the king.[ref]
Ha, he stayed in Yerushalem because he thought that the Israelis might give back control of his grandfather’s kingdom,” Tsiva lied.
4 “Well then,” the king told Tsiva, “everything that belonged to Mefiboshet now belongs to you.”
“I’m honoured,” Tsiva responded, “that I’ve found favour in the eyes of my master the king.”
16:3: 2Sam 19:25-27.
2Sam 9:9-10:
9 Then the king summoned Sha’ul’s servant Tsiva and told him, “I’ve given everything that belonged to Sha’ul and to all his household to your master. 10 You and your fifteen sons and your twenty servants must work the land for him and harvest the produce to support your master’s grandson, but he will eat with me at my house.”
2Sam 19:25-27:
25 He 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. 27 Then 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.
