2 Samuel 4:2-5

2And Ish-bosheth, Saul’s sonH1121, had twoH8147 menH376 that wereH1961 captains of bandsH1416: the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was BaanahH1196, and the nameH8034 of the other RechabH7394, the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, of the children of BenjaminH1144 (for BeerothH881 alsoH1571 is reckonedH2803 to BenjaminH1144: 3and the Beerothites fledH1272 to GittaimH1664, and have beenH1961 sojourners there until this dayH3117).

4Now JonathanH3083, Saul’s sonH1121, had a sonH1121 that was lame of his feetH7272. He was fiveH2568 yearsH8141 old when the tidings cameH935 of SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 out of JezreelH3157; and his nurseH539 tookH5375 him up, and fledH5127: and it cameH935 to pass, as she made haste to fleeH5127, that he fellH5307, and becameH1961 lame. And his nameH8034 was MephiboshethH4648.

5And the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196, wentH935, and cameH935 about the heatH2527 of the dayH3117 to the houseH1004 of Ish-boshethH378, as he took his restH7901 at noonH6672.
