Löydetty 1071 Tulokset: David And Jonathan
David reigned over all Israel, issuing decrees and administering justice to all his people. (2 Samuel 8, 15)
and Benaiah, son of Jehoiada, was in charge of the Cherethites and the Pelethites. David's sons were priests. (2 Samuel 8, 18)
David asked, "Is there anyone left of the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for the sake of Jonathan?" (2 Samuel 9, 1)
So they called a servant of Saul, named Ziba, and brought him to David who asked, "So you are Ziba?" He replied, "I am your servant." (2 Samuel 9, 2)
Then the king asked him, "Is there still someone of the house of Saul to whom I can give God's favor?" Ziba answered the king, "A son of Jonathan whose feet are crippled still lives." (2 Samuel 9, 3)
So King David sent for him and had him brought from the house of Machir, son of Ammiel, at Lodebar. (2 Samuel 9, 5)
When Mepibaal, son of Jonathan, son of Saul arrived, he fell on the ground and paid homage to David who said, "Mepibaal!" He replied, "Your servant listens." (2 Samuel 9, 6)
David then told him, "Do not be afraid. I will do you a favor for the sake of your father Jonathan and give you back all the land of Saul your father. Besides, you shall always eat at my table." (2 Samuel 9, 7)
David said, "I will be kind to Hanun son of Nahash as his father was kind to me." So David sent his servants to comfort him over his father's death. When David's servants arrived in the land of the Ammonites, (2 Samuel 10, 2)
the Ammonite chiefs told Hanun their lord, "Do you think that, by sending men with condolences, David is honoring your father? Has not David rather sent his servants to you to explore the city, spy on it and overthrow it?" (2 Samuel 10, 3)
At this, Hanun seized David's servants, shaved off half their beard, cut away the lower halves of their garments even up to their hips and sent them away. (2 Samuel 10, 4)
When this was reported to David, he sent messengers to meet these men who felt greatly ashamed and to tell them, "Stay in Jericho and return after your beards have grown." (2 Samuel 10, 5)
