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 Y luego que vino él á Jerusalem á recibir al rey, el rey le dijo: Mephi-boseth, ¿Por qué no fuiste conmigo?
26 Y él dijo: Rey señor mío, mi siervo me ha engañado; pues había tu siervo dicho: Enalbardaré un asno, y subiré en él, é iré al rey; porque tu siervo es cojo.
27 Empero él revolvió á tu siervo delante de mi señor el rey; mas mi señor el rey es como un ángel de Dios: haz pues lo que bien te pareciere.
28 Porque toda la casa de mi padre era digna de muerte delante de mi señor el rey, y tú pusiste á tu siervo entre los convidados de tu mesa. ¿Qué derecho pues tengo aún para quejarme más contra el rey?
29 Y el rey le dijo: ¿Para qué hablas más palabras? Yo he determinado que tú y Siba partáis las tierras.
