Ziba is on the right, bringing David provisions. Ziba (ציבא) is a man in 2 Samuel in the Hebrew Bible. He was a servant of Saul, and then later of Saul's grandson, Mephibosheth. Ziba is mentioned in three places. In 2 Samuel 9, David speaks to him and tells him how Mephibosheth will be
He is called Mephibosheth, meaning "from the mouth of shame", in the Books of Samuel while the Books of Chronicles (8:34 and 9:40) call him Meribbaal.
