2 Samuel 21:1-3
1During the reignH3117 of DavidH1732 there wasH1961 a famineH7458 for threeH7969 successive yearsH8141H310, and DavidH1732 soughtH1245 the faceH6440 of the LORDH3068.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, “It is because ofH413 the bloodH1818 shed by SaulH7586 andH413 his familyH1004, becauseH834 he killedH4191 the GibeonitesH1393.”
2At this, DavidH4428 summonedH7121 the GibeonitesH1393 and spokeH559 to themH413. (Now the GibeonitesH1393 wereH1992 notH3808 IsraelitesH1121H3478, butH3588 a remnantH3499 of the AmoritesH567. The IsraelitesH1121H3478 had taken an oath concerning themH7650, but in his zealH7065 for IsraelH1121H3478 and JudahH3063, SaulH7586 had soughtH1245 to kill themH5221.)
3So DavidH1732H413 askedH559 the GibeonitesH1393, “WhatH4100 shall I doH6213 for you? HowH4100 can I make amendsH3722 so that you may blessH1288 the inheritanceH5159 of the LORDH3068?”
