2 Samuel 21:10-14

101And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it out 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 wild animals by night. 11When it was reported to 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 his son Jonathan from the citizens of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the public square of 6Beth-shan, 7where the Philistines had hanged them on the day 8the Philistines struck and killed Saul in Gilboa. 13He brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan, and they gathered the bones of those who had been 9hanged. 14Then they buried the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan in the country of Benjamin in 10Zela, in the grave of his father Kish; So they did everything that the king commanded, and after that 11God responded to prayer for the land.
