2 Samuel 9:10

9:10 You will cultivate ²  the land for him – you and your sons and your servants. You will bring its produce ³  and it will be ⁴  food for your master’s grandson to eat. ⁵  But Mephibosheth, your master’s grandson, will be a regular guest at my table.” (Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.)

[9:7]  ¹ tn Heb “and you will eat food over my table continually.”

[9:10]  ² tn Heb “work.”

[9:10]  ³ tn The Hebrew text implies, but does not actually contain, the words “its produce” here.

[9:10]  ⁴ tc The words “it will be,” though present in the MT, are absent from the LXX, the Syriac Peshitta, and Vulgate.

[9:10]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he will eat it.”
