4 Now Saul’s son Jonʹa·than+ had a son whose feet were crippled.*+ He was five years old when the report about Saul and Jonʹa·than came from Jezʹre·el,+ and his nurse picked him up and fled, but as she was fleeing in panic, he fell and was crippled. His name was Me·phibʹo·sheth.+

10 You will cultivate the land for him—you and your sons and your servants—and you will gather its produce to provide food for those who belong to the grandson of your master to eat. But Me·phibʹo·sheth, the grandson of your master, will always dine at my table.”+

Now Ziʹba had 15 sons and 20 servants.+

24 Me·phibʹo·sheth,+ the grandson of Saul, also came down to meet the king. He had not cared for his feet or trimmed his mustache or washed his garments from the day the king left until the day he returned in peace.
