  3. Is there still anyone left to bless? 1Sam. 20:16 And Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, “May the LORD take vengeance on David’s enemies.” 1Sam. 20:42 Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for we have sworn friendship with each other in the name of the LORD, saying, ‘The LORD is witness between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants forever.’ 1Sam. 23:18 The two of them made a covenant before the LORD. Then Jonathan went home, but David remained at Horesh.

  4. Is there still anyone left to bless? 2 Samuel 4:4 Jonathan, the son of Saul, had a son who was crippled in his feet.

And his name was Mephibosheth

  5. Is there still anyone left to bless? 2 Samuel 9:2 – 13 Now there was a servant of the house of Saul whose name was Ziba, and they called him to David. And the king said to him, “Are you Ziba?” And he said, “I am your servant.” Vs3 And the king said, “Is there not still someone of the house of Saul, that I may show the kindness of God to him?” Ziba said to the king, “There is still a son of Jonathan; he is crippled in his feet.” Vs4 The king said to him, “Where is he?” And Ziba said to the king, “He is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, at Lo-debar.” Vs5 Then King David sent and brought him from the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, at Lo-debar.

Vs10 And you and your sons and your servants shall till the land for him and shall bring in the produce, that your master’s grandson may have bread to eat. But Mephibosheth your master’s grandson shall always eat at my table.” Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.
