Custom UITableViewCell from nib in Swift

With Swift 5 and iOS 12.2, you should try the following code in order to solve your problem:

CustomCell.swift

import UIKit

class CustomCell: UITableViewCell {

    // Link those IBOutlets with the UILabels in your .XIB file
    @IBOutlet weak var middleLabel: UILabel!
    @IBOutlet weak var leftLabel: UILabel!
    @IBOutlet weak var rightLabel: UILabel!

}

TableViewController.swift

import UIKit

class TableViewController: UITableViewController {

    let items = ["Item 1", "Item2", "Item3", "Item4"]

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        tableView.register(UINib(nibName: "CustomCell", bundle: nil), forCellReuseIdentifier: "CustomCell")
    }

    // MARK: - UITableViewDataSource

    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        return items.count
    }

    override func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "CustomCell", for: indexPath) as! CustomCell

        cell.middleLabel.text = items[indexPath.row]
        cell.leftLabel.text = items[indexPath.row]
        cell.rightLabel.text = items[indexPath.row]

        return cell
    }

}
