8 Then Mephibosheth bowed and said, |Of what importance am I, your servant, that you show regard for a dead dog like me?| 9 Then the king summoned Ziba, Saul's attendant, and said to him, |Everything that belonged to Saul and to his entire house I hereby give to your master's grandson. 10 You will cultivate the land for him--you and your sons and your servants. You will bring its produce and it will be food for your master's grandson to eat. But Mephibosheth, your master's grandson, will be a regular guest at my table.| (Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.) 2 Samuel 9:8-10, New English Translation.
