2 Samuel 19:26-28

New International Version

²⁶ He said, “My lord the king, since I your servant am lame,^(A) I said, ‘I will have my donkey saddled and will ride on it, so I can go with the king.’ But Ziba^(B) my servant betrayed me. ²⁷ And he has slandered your servant to my lord the king. My lord the king is like an angel^(C) of God; so do whatever you wish. ²⁸ All my grandfather’s descendants deserved nothing but death^(D) from my lord the king, but you gave your servant a place among those who eat at your table.^(E) So what right do I have to make any more appeals to the king?”
