And Mephibosheth said to the king, Oh, let him take it all, since my lord the king has come back in peace to his own house — Mephibosheth's response prioritizes David's safe return above his own property claims. His willingness to concede all to Ziba shows that his loyalty to David exceeds his concern for material possession. The detail is touching: the disabled heir of Saul values the king's welfare more than his own inheritance.
