28. All my grandfather’s descendants deserved nothing but death from my lord the king, but you gave your servant a place among those who eat at your table. So what right do I have to make any more appeals to the king?’
29. The king said to him, ‘Why say more? I order you and Ziba to divide the land.’
30. Mephibosheth said to the king, ‘Let him take everything, now that my lord the king has returned home safely.’
31. Barzillai the Gileadite also came down from Rogelim to cross the Jordan with the king and to send him on his way from there.
32. Now Barzillai was very old, eighty years of age. He had provided for the king during his stay in Mahanaim, for he was a very wealthy man.
33. The king said to Barzillai, ‘Cross over with me and stay with me in Jerusalem, and I will provide for you.’
