2 Samuel 4:9-12

9Then DavidH1732 answered RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196 his brotherH251, the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, and saidH559 to them, [As] Jehovah liveth, who has redeemedH6299 my soulH5315 out of all distressH6869, 10when one toldH5046 me, sayingH559, Behold, SaulH7586 is deadH4191! and he wasH1961 in his own sight a messenger of good, I took holdH270 of him, and slewH2026 him in ZiklagH6860 — to whom forsooth I should giveH5414 a reward for his good tidings: 11how much moreH4480, when wickedH7563 menH376 have slainH2026 a righteousH6662 personH376 in his own houseH1004 upon his bedH4904? and should I not nowH6258 demand his bloodH1818 of your handH3027, and take you away from the earthH776? 12And DavidH1732 commandedH6680 his youngH5288 menH5288, and they slewH2026 them, and cutH7112 off their handsH3027 and their feetH7272, and hangedH8518 [them] up over the poolH1295 in HebronH2275. But they tookH3947 the headH7218 of Ishbosheth, and buriedH6912 it in the sepulchre of AbnerH74 in HebronH2275.
