1David said, “Is there yet any who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”

2There was of the house of Saul a servant whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David; and the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” He said, “Your servant is he.”

3The king said, “Is there not yet any of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God to him?” Ziba said to the king, “Jonathan has yet a son, who is lame of his feet.”

4The king said to him, “Where is he?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar.”

5Then king David sent, and fetched him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.
