2 Samuel 21:8-10
8So the king took the two sons of 1Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, Armoni and Mephibosheth whom she had borne to Saul, and the five sons of 23Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she had borne to Adriel the son of Barzillai the 4Meholathite. 9Then he handed them over to the Gibeonites, and they 5hanged them on the mountain before the Lord, so that the seven of them fell together; and they were put to death in the first days of harvest at 6the beginning of barley harvest.
107And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it out for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until 8it rained on them from the sky; and 9she 10allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day nor the wild animals by night.
