2 Samuel 19:24-30 - David Shows Kindness To Mephibosheth
24 And Mephibosheth son of Saul, came down to the meeting of the king, and he did not his feet, and he did not his beard, and his garments he washed not from the day the king went till the day in which he came in peace. 25 And it will be when he came to Jerusalem to the meeting of the king, and the king will say to him, Wherefore wentest thou not with me, Mephibosheth?
26 And he will say, My lord the king, my servant deceived me: for thy servant said, I will saddle for me the ass, and I will ride upon it, and I will go to the king; for thy servant is lame. 27 And he will slander against thy servant to my lord the king; and my lord the king as a messenger of God: and do thou the good in thine eyes. 28 For was not all my father's house but men of death before my lord the king? and thou wilt set thy servant among those eating at thy table. And what is there to me yet of right and to cry yet to the king?
29 And the king will say to him, Wherefore wilt thou speak yet thy words? I said, Thou and Ziba shall divide the field.
30 And Mephibosheth will say to the king, Also he shall take all, after that my lord the king came in peace to his house.
