2 Samuel 9:11

Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king hath commanded his servant, so shall thy servant do. As for Mephibosheth, [said the king], he shall eat at my table, as one of the king's sons.

Then said {H559} Ziba {H6717} unto the king {H4428}, According to all that my lord {H113} the king {H4428} hath commanded {H6680} his servant {H5650}, so shall thy servant {H5650} do {H6213}. As for Mephibosheth {H4648}, said the king, he shall eat {H398} at my table {H7979}, as one {H259} of the king's {H4428} sons {H1121}.

Tziva said to the king, "Your servant will do everything my lord the king commands his servant, although M'fivoshet has been eating at my table as one of the king's descendants."

And Ziba said to the king, “Your servant will do all that my lord the king has commanded.” So Mephibosheth ate at David’s table like one of the king’s own sons.

Then said Ziba unto the king, According to all that my lord the king commandeth his servant, so shall thy servant do. As for Mephibosheth, said the king, he shall eat at my table, as one of the king’s sons.
