7But the kingH4428 sparedH2550 1MephiboshethH4648, the sonH1121 of JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586, 2becauseH5921 of the oathH7621 of the LordH3068 whichH834 was betweenH996 them, betweenH996 DavidH1732 and Saul’sH7586 sonH1121 JonathanH3083. 8So the kingH4428 tookH3947 the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of 3RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, ArmoniH764 and MephiboshethH4648 whomH834 she had borneH3205 to SaulH7586, and the fiveH2568 sonsH1121 of 45MerabH4764 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586, whomH834 she had borneH3205 to AdrielH5741 the sonH1121 of BarzillaiH1271 the 6MeholathiteH4259. 9Then he gaveH5414 them into the handsH3027 of the GibeonitesH1393, and they 7hangedH3363 them in the mountainH2022 beforeH6440 the LordH3068, so that the sevenH7651 of them fellH5307 togetherH3162; and they were putH4191 to deathH4191 in the firstH7223 daysH3117 of harvestH7105 at 8the beginningH8462 of barleyH8184 harvestH7105.
