2 Samuel 21:6-9

6let sevenH7651H582 of his male descendantsH1121 be deliveredH5414 to us so that we may hang themH33631 before the LORDH3068 at GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586, the chosenH972 of the LORDH3068.”

“IH589 will give them to youH5414,” saidH559 the kingH4428.

7Now the kingH4428 sparedH2550H5921 MephiboshethH4648 sonH1121 of JonathanH3083, the sonH1121 of SaulH7586, because ofH5921 the oathH7621 before the LORDH3068 betweenH996 DavidH1732 andH996 JonathanH3083 sonH1121 of SaulH7586. 8But the kingH4428 tookH3947 ArmoniH764 and MephiboshethH4648, the twoH8147 sonsH1121 whomH834 RizpahH7532 daughterH1323 of AiahH345 had borneH3205 to SaulH7586, as well as the fiveH2568 sonsH1121 whomH834 MerabH43242 daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 had borneH3205 to AdrielH5741 sonH1121 of BarzillaiH1271 the MeholathiteH4259. 9And he delivered themH5414 into the handsH3027 of the GibeonitesH1393, and they hanged themH3363 on the hillH2022 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. So all seven of themH7659 fellH5307 togetherH3162; theyH1992 were put to deathH4191 in the firstH7223 daysH3117 of the harvestH7105, at the beginningH8462 of the barleyH8184 harvestH7105.
