For all my father's house were deserving of death from my lord the king, but you set your servant among those who eat at your table — Therefore I have no further right to cry out to the king — Mephibosheth reminds David that as Saul's heir, he deserved death. Yet David has granted him status and honor (eating at the king's table). Mephibosheth's statement is one of gratitude and submission; he claims no further right to petition.
