Discovery Box2 Samuel 9:10 
Context9:10 You will cultivate 1 the land for him – you and your sons and your servants. You will bring its produce 2 and it will be 3 food for your master’s grandson to eat. 4 But Mephibosheth, your master’s grandson, will be a regular guest at my table.” (Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.)
2 Samuel 21:8
Context21:8 So the king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons of Aiah’s daughter Rizpah whom she had born to Saul, and the five sons of Saul’s daughter Merab 5 whom she had born to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
1 tn Heb “work.”
2 tn The Hebrew text implies, but does not actually contain, the words “its produce” here.
3 tc The words “it will be,” though present in the MT, are absent from the LXX, the Syriac Peshitta, and Vulgate.
4 tn Heb “and he will eat it.”
5 tc The MT reads “Michal” here, but two Hebrew manuscripts read “Merab,” along with some LXX manuscripts. Cf. 1 Sam 18:19.
