2 Samuel 9:6-8

Mephibosheth, Jonathan’s son, came before David and bowed facedown on the floor. David said, “Mephibosheth!” Mephibosheth said, “I am your servant.” David said to him, “Don’t be afraid. I will be kind to you for your father Jonathan’s sake. I will give you back all the land of your grandfather Saul, and you will always eat at my table.” Mephibosheth bowed to David again and said, “You are being very kind to me, your servant! And I am no better than a dead dog!”
