A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a difficult time.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_20 27:9
Oil and incense bring joy to the heart, and the sweetness of a friend is better than self-counsel.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_9 19:4
Jonathan spoke well of David to his father Saul. He said to him: "The king should not sin against his servant David. He hasn't sinned against you; in fact, his actions have been a great advantage to you.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_9 19:5
He took his life in his hands when he struck down the Philistine, and the LORD brought about a great victory for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced, so why would you sin against innocent blood by killing David for no reason?"

26
When David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the plunder to his friends, the elders of Judah, saying, "Here is a gift for you from the plunder of the LORD's enemies."
27
[He sent gifts] to those in Bethel, in Ramoth of the Negev, and in Jattir;
28
to those in Aroer, in Siphmoth, and in Eshtemoa;
29
to those in Racal, in the towns of the Jerahmeelites, and in the towns of the Kenites;
30
to those in Hormah, in Bor-ashan, and in Athach;
31
to those in Hebron, and to [those in] all the places where David and his men had roamed.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_10 9:1-13
1
David asked, "Is there anyone remaining from Saul's family I can show kindness to because of Jonathan?"
2
There was a servant of Saul's family named Ziba. They summoned him to David, and the king said to him, "Are you Ziba?" "[I am] your servant," he replied.
3
So the king asked, "Is there anyone left of Saul's family I can show the kindness of God to?" Ziba said to the king, "There is still Jonathan's son who is lame in both feet."
4
The king asked him, "Where is he?" Ziba answered the king, "You'll find him in Lo-debar at the house of Machir son of Ammiel."
5
So King David had him brought from the house of Machir son of Ammiel in Lo-debar.
6
Mephibosheth son of Jonathan son of Saul came to David, bowed down to the ground and paid homage. David said, "Mephibosheth!" "I am your servant," he replied.
7
"Don't be afraid," David said to him, "since I intend to show you kindness because of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all your grandfather Saul's fields, and you will always eat meals at my table."
8
Mephibosheth bowed down and said, "What is your servant that you take an interest in a dead dog like me?"
9
Then the king summoned Saul's attendant Ziba and said to him, "I have given to your master's grandson all that belonged to Saul and his family.
10
You, your sons, and your servants are to work the ground for him, and you are to bring in [the crops] so your master's grandson will have food to eat. But Mephibosheth, your master's grandson, is always to eat at my table." Now Ziba had 15 sons and 20 servants.
11
Ziba said to the king, "Your servant will do all my lord the king commands." So Mephibosheth ate at David's table just like one of the king's sons.
12
Mephibosheth had a young son whose name was Mica. All those living in Ziba's house were Mephibosheth's servants.
13
However, Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem because he always ate at the king's table. He was lame in both feet.

"Is this your loyalty to your friend?" Absalom asked Hushai. "Why didn't you go with your friend?"

27
When David came to Mahanaim, Shobi son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, Machir son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim
28
brought beds, basins, and pottery items. [They also brought] wheat, barley, flour, roasted grain, beans, lentils,
29
honey, curds, sheep, and cheese from the herd for David and the people with him to eat. They had reasoned, "The people must be hungry, exhausted, and thirsty in the desert."
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_10 19:30-39
30
Mephibosheth said to the king, "Instead, since my lord the king has come to his palace safely, let Ziba take it all!"
31
Barzillai the Gileadite had come down from Rogelim and accompanied the king to the Jordan River to see him off at the Jordan.
32
Barzillai was a very old man-- 80 years old-- and since he was a very wealthy man, he had provided for the needs of the king while he stayed in Mahanaim.
33
The king said to Barzillai, "Cross over with me, and I'll provide for you at my side in Jerusalem."
34
Barzillai replied to the king, "How many years of my life are left that I should go up to Jerusalem with the king?
35
I'm now 80 years old. Can I discern what is pleasant and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats or drinks? Can I still hear the voice of male and female singers? Why should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?
36
Since your servant is only going with the king a little way across the Jordan, why should the king repay me with such a reward?
37
Please let your servant return so that I may die in my own city near the tomb of my father and mother. But here is your servant Chimham: let him cross over with my lord the king. Do for him what seems good to you."
38
The king replied, "Chimham will cross over with me, and I will do for him what seems good to you, and whatever you desire from me I will do for you."
39
So all the people crossed the Jordan, and then the king crossed. The king kissed Barzillai and blessed him, and Barzillai returned to his home.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_10 21:7
David spared Mephibosheth, the son of Saul's son Jonathan, because of the oath of the LORD that was between David and Jonathan, Saul's son.

38
All these warriors, lined up in battle formation, came to Hebron with wholehearted determination to make David king over all Israel. All the rest of Israel was also of one mind to make David king.
39
They were there with David for three days, eating and drinking, for their relatives had provided for them.
40
In addition, their neighbors from as far away as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali came bringing food on donkeys, camels, mules, and oxen-- abundant provisions of flour, fig cakes, raisins, wine and oil, oxen, and sheep. Indeed, there was joy in Israel.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_40 26:49
So he went right up to Jesus and said, "Greetings, Rabbi!"-- and kissed Him.

"Friend," Jesus asked him, "why have you come?" Then they came up, took hold of Jesus, and arrested Him.

I grieve for you, Jonathan my brother. You were such a friend to me. Your love for me was more wonderful than the love of a woman [for me].
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_43 15:14
You are My friends if you do what I command you.
ZEFANIABIBLE_BIBLE_BOOK_NAME_43 15:15
I do not call you slaves anymore, because a slave doesn't know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have heard from My Father.
