2 Samuel 19:25-27

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁵ And when he had come to Jerusalem, and met the king, the king said to him, “Why did you not go with me, Mephibosheth?”

²⁶ And he answered, “My lord the king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I would have my donkey saddled, to ride on it to go with the king,’ because your servant is lame.

²⁷ “And he has accused your servant to my lord the king. But my lord the king is as an angel of God. Therefore, do your pleasure.
