*
And when David was a little past the summit ,
behold ,
Ziba ,
Mephibosheth '
s servant ,
met him ,
with a couple of asses saddled ,
and upon them two hundred [
loaves ]
of bread ,
and a hundred raisin-cakes ,
and a hundred cakes of summer fruits ,
and a flask of wine .
*
And the king said to Ziba ,
What meanest thou by these ?
And Ziba said ,
The asses are for the king '
s household to ride on ;
and the bread and summer fruits for the young men to eat ;
and the wine ,
that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink .
*
And the king said ,
And where is thy master '
s son ?
And Ziba said to the king ,
Behold ,
he abides at Jerusalem ;
for he said ,
To-day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father .
*
And the king said to Ziba ,
Behold ,
thine are all that pertained to Mephibosheth .
And Ziba said ,
I humbly bow myself :
may I find favour in thy sight ,
my lord ,
O king .
