2 Samuel 21:10-14

101And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until 2it rained on them from the sky; and 3she 4allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day nor the beasts of the field by night. 11When it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done, 12then David went and took 5the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the open square of 6Beth-shan, 7where the Philistines had hanged them on the day 8the Philistines struck down Saul in Gilboa. 13He brought up the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from there, and they gathered the bones of those who had been 9hanged. 14They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in 10Zela, in the grave of Kish his father; thus they did all that the king commanded, and after that 11God was moved by prayer for the land.
