This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2Sa_19:26 And he answered, My lord, O king, my servant deceived me: for thy servant said, I will saddle me an ass, that I may ride thereon, and go to the king; because thy servant [is] lame.
Ver. 26. My servant deceived me.] He doth not say, My servant hath by false informations and unjust accusations got my land from me: this troubled Mephibosheth nothing so much as the loss of his good name, and that good esteem that David formerly had of him. He said,
“ Ego si bonam famam servasso, sat dives ero.” - Plaut.
