5. Then king David sent, and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel of Lodabar.
6. And when Miphiboseth the son of Jonathan the son of Saul was come to David, he fell on his face and worshipped. And David said: Miphiboseth? And he answered: Behold thy servant.
7. And David said to him: Fear not, for I will surely shew thee mercy for Jonathan thy father's sake, and I will restore the lands of Saul thy father, and thou shalt eat bread at my table always.
8. He bowed down to him, and said: Who am I thy servant, that thou shouldst look upon such a dead dog as I am?
