2 Samuel 21:8-14
8And the kingH4428 tookH3947 the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, whom she had borneH3205 to SaulH7586, Armoni and MephiboshethH4648; and the fiveH2568 sonsH1121 of [the sister of] MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586, whom she had borneH3205 to AdrielH5741 the sonH1121 of BarzillaiH1271 the MeholathiteH4259;
9and he gaveH5414 them into the handsH3027 of the GibeonitesH1393, and they hanged them on the hillH2022 before Jehovah. And they fellH5307 all sevenH7651 togetherH3162, and were putH5414 to deathH4191 in the firstH7223 daysH3117 of the harvestH7105, in the beginning of barleyH8184 harvestH7105.
10Then RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345 tookH3947 sackclothH8242, and spreadH5186 it for her upon the rockH6697, from the beginning of harvestH7105 until waterH4325 pouredH5413 on them out of the heavensH8064, and suffered neither the fowl of the heavensH8064 to restH5117 on them by dayH3119, nor the beasts of the fieldH7704 by nightH3915.
11And it was toldH5046 DavidH1732 what RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, the concubineH6370 of SaulH7586, had done.
12And DavidH1732 went and tookH3947 the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and the bonesH6106 of JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 from the men of Jabesh-Gilead, who had stolenH1589 them from the openH7339 place of Beth-shanH1052, whereH834 the PhilistinesH6430 had hangedH8518 them, the dayH3117 the PhilistinesH6430 had smitten SaulH7586 in GilboaH1533;
13and he broughtH5927 up from thence the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and the bonesH6106 of JonathanH3083 his sonH1121; and they gatheredH622 the bonesH6106 of them that were hanged.
14And they buriedH6912 [them] with the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 in the country of BenjaminH1144 in Zela, in the sepulchre of KishH7027 his fatherH1; and they did all that the kingH4428 had commandedH6680. And afterwards 1GodH430 was propitious to the landH776.
