2 Samuel 9:1-6

1 et dixit David putasne est aliquis qui remanserit de domo Saul ut faciam cum eo misericordiam propter Ionathan

2 erat autem de domo Saul servus nomine Siba quem cum vocasset rex ad se dixit ei tune es Siba et ille respondit ego sum servus tuus

3 et ait rex num superest aliquis de domo Saul ut faciam cum eo misericordiam Dei dixitque Siba regi superest filius Ionathan debilis pedibus

4 ubi inquit est et Siba ad regem ecce ait in domo est Machir filii Amihel in Lodabar

5 misit ergo rex David et tulit eum de domo Machir filii Amihel de Lodabar

6 cum autem venisset Mifiboseth filius Ionathan filii Saul ad David corruit in faciem suam et adoravit dixitque David Mifiboseth qui respondit adsum servus tuus
