2 Samuel 16:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 16:4

Then said the king to Ziba, behold, thine [are] all that
[pertaineth] to Mephibosheth
Being forfeited to the king by an overt act of treason as they had been before by the rebellion of Ishbosheth, but had been graciously restored to Mephibosheth; and had it been true what Ziba suggested, it would have been a righteous thing to have taken them from him; though it seems to be too hasty a step in David to take and give them away without further inquiry:

and Ziba said, I humbly beseech thee [that] I may find grace in thy
sight, my lord, O king;
he had found favour already, but seems not to be sufficiently thankful for it, and satisfied with it, but craved more and other favours, when opportunity should serve.

2 Samuel 16:4 In-Context

2 —¿Para qué es todo esto? —le preguntó el rey a Siba.
—Los burros son para que monten los que acompañen al rey —contestó Siba—, y el pan y la fruta son para que coman los jóvenes. El vino es para los que se agoten en el desierto.
3 —¿Y dónde está Mefiboset, el nieto de Saúl? —le preguntó el rey.
—Se quedó en Jerusalén —contestó Siba—. Dijo: “Hoy recobraré el reino de mi abuelo Saúl”.
4 —En ese caso —le dijo el rey a Siba—, te doy todo lo que le pertenece a Mefiboset.
—Me inclino ante usted —respondió Siba—, que yo siempre pueda complacerlo, mi señor el rey.
5 Simei maldice a David
Mientras el rey David llegaba a Bahurim, salió un hombre de la aldea maldiciéndolos. Era Simei, hijo de Gera, del mismo clan de la familia de Saúl.
6 Les arrojĂł piedras al rey, a los oficiales del rey y a los guerreros valientes que lo rodeaban.
