2 Samuel 19:27 Meaning and Commentary

2 Samuel 19:27

And he hath slandered thy servant unto my lord the king
By suggesting that he stayed at Jerusalem with a view to the kingdom, hoping that the quarrel between David and Absalom would issue in the restoration of it to his father's family; which was a mere calumny, he having had no such thought, nor was there any foundation for it:

but my lord the king [is] an angel of God;
for understanding and wisdom, to discern the falsehood of such suggestions:

do therefore [what is] good in thine eyes;
condemn him or acquit him; reject him or receive him into favour; he entirely submitted himself to him, to do with him as seemed good in his sight.

2 Samuel 19:27 In-Context

25 —¿Por qué no viniste conmigo, Mefiboset? —le preguntó el rey.
26 Mefiboset contestĂł:
—Mi señor el rey, mi siervo Siba me engañó. Le dije: “Ensilla mi burro
para que pueda ir con el rey”. Pues como usted sabe, soy lisiado.
27 Siba me calumnió cuando dijo que me negué a venir. Pero sé que mi señor el rey es como un ángel de Dios, así que haga como mejor le parezca.
28 Todos mis parientes y yo solo podíamos esperar la muerte de su parte, mi señor, ¡pero en cambio me honró al permitirme comer a su propia mesa! ¿Qué más puedo pedir?
29 —Ya dijiste suficiente —respondió David—. He decidido que tú y Siba se dividan tu tierra en partes iguales.
