5So the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196, departedH1980 and cameH935 to the houseH1004 of 1Ish-boshethH378 in the heatH2527 of the dayH3117, while he was takingH7901 his middayH6672 restH4904. 62And they cameH935 to the interiorH8432 of the houseH1004 as if 3to getH3947 wheatH2406, and 4they struckH5221 him in the bellyH2570; and RechabH7394 and his brotherH251 BaanahH1196 escapedH4422. 7Now when they had comeH935 into the houseH1004, as he was lyingH7901 on his bedH4296 in his bedroomH2315H4904, they struckH5221 him and killedH4191 him, and they beheadedH5493H7218 him. And they tookH3947 his headH7218 and 56traveledH1980 by wayH1870 of the ArabahH6160 allH3605 nightH3915. 8Then they broughtH935 the headH7218 of Ish-boshethH378 to DavidH1732 at HebronH2275, and saidH559 to the kingH4428, “BeholdH2009, the headH7218 of Ish-boshethH378 7the sonH1121 of SaulH7586, your enemyH340, whoH834 soughtH1245 your lifeH5315; so the LordH3068 has givenH5414 my lordH113 the kingH4428 vengeanceH5360 thisH2088 dayH3117 on SaulH7586 and his 8descendantsH2233.”
9But DavidH1732 repliedH6030 to RechabH7394 and his brotherH251 BaanahH1196, sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, and saidH559 to them, “As the LordH3068 livesH2416, 9whoH834 has redeemedH6299 my lifeH5315 from allH3605 distressH6869,
