Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth meets David with donkeys laden with bread and wine

므비보셋의 사환 시바가 나귀에 떡과 포도주를 싣고 다윗을 맞음

2 Samuel 16:1–4: when David is a little past the top, Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth meets him with a couple of donkeys saddled, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, and one hundred clusters of raisins, and one hundred summer fruits, and a container of wine. The king says to Ziba, “What do you mean by these?” Ziba says, “The donkeys are for the king’s household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat; and the wine, that those who are faint in the wilderness may drink.” The king says, “Where is your master’s son?” Ziba says to the king, “Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem; for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will restore me the kingdom of my father.’” Then the king says to Ziba, “Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” Ziba says, “I bow down. Let me find favor in your sight, my lord, O king.”
