He saved him from Saul (Jonathon's dad) As he was trying to kill him. He had to escort him out into a cave. David never saw him after this as he died in war with Saul.

Who was Jonathan's crippled son?

Mephibosheth. 2 Samuel 4:4. When the news about the death of Saul and Jonathan (father and son) came to Jerusalem, Mephibosheth's nurse dropped the little five year old, who was injured in both feet, and became lame. 2 Samuel 21:7: The King spared the son of Jonathan because of the oath (pledge) Jonathan and King David made together, so support one another. Jonathan acted in defiance of his father, the then King (Saul) in support of David, who was not yet crowned king. Jonathan and David remained faithful to each other before the Lord. Jonathan realized that David was the anointed King and that his father, Saul (whom he had to support and died in battle), was now rejected by the Lord. Mephibosheth was supported by King David and ate at the King's table (2 Samuel 9:13 until he died.) He also had a son, so the family line progressed through this cripple. His son's name was Mica (2 Samuel 9:12) and they had plenty, including the amazing Ziba and his family as servants! Not bad going for a crippled man. This also shows the depth of compassion King David had for his dear friend, well after he was dead. We can learn from David.
