4 Now Jonʹa·than,+ the son of Saul, had a son lame in the feet.+ Five years old he happened to be when the report about Saul and Jonʹa·than came from Jezʹre·el;+ and his nurse began to carry him and flee, but it came about that as she was running in panic to flee, he then had a fall and was lamed. And his name was Me·phibʹo·sheth.+

10 And you must cultivate the ground for him, you and your sons and your servants, and you must do the gathering in, and it must serve as food* for [those belonging to] the grandson* of your master,* and they must eat; but Me·phibʹo·sheth himself, the grandson of your master, will eat bread at my table constantly.”+

Now Ziʹba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.+

24 As for Me·phibʹo·sheth+ the grandson of Saul,* he came down to meet the king; and he had not attended to his feet+ nor had he attended to his mustache+ nor had he washed his garments from the day that the king went away until the day that he came in peace.
