Clementine Latin Vulgate (1592)
Ingredientes urbem, statim invenietis eum antequam ascendat excelsum ad vescendum, neque enim comesurus est populus donec ille veniat : quia ipse benedicit hosti, et deinceps comedunt qui vocati sunt. Nunc ergo conscendite, quia hodie reperietis eum.
Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
Porro Miphiboseth habitabat in Jerusalem, quia de mensa regis jugiter vescebatur: et erat claudus utroque pede.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem,.... Either in some apartments in the king's palace, or in some house in the city provided for him; for he returned not to Lodebar, nor to any mansion house upon the estate, of Saul restored unto him:

for he did eat continually at the king's table; to which he was invited, and he accepted of:

and was lame on both his feet; or "though" he was n, yet this was no objection to David, he admitted him notwithstanding his infirmity; nor any obstruction to Mephibosheth, who found ways and means to be carried to the king's table daily.

n והוא "quamvis esset", Junius Tremellius, Piscator so Patrick.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Samuel 9:13. Did eat continually at the king's table — He was fit for no public office, but was treated by the king with the utmost respect and affection.
