2 Samuel 21:8-14
8But the kingH4428 tookH3947 the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, whomH834 sheH834 bare unto SaulH7586, ArmoniH764 and MephiboshethH4648; and the fiveH2568 sonsH1121 of MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586, whomH834 sheH834 bare to AdrielH5741 the sonH1121 of BarzillaiH1271 the MeholathiteH4259:
9And he deliveredH5414 them intoH5307 the handsH3027 of the GibeonitesH1393, and they hangedH3363 them in the mountainH2022 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and they fellH5307 allH3162 sevenH7651 togetherH3162: and they were putH5414 to deathH4191 in the daysH3117 of harvestH7105, in the firstH7223 daysH3117, at the beginningH8462 of barleyH8184 harvestH7105.
10And RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345 tookH3947 sackclothH8242, and spreadH5186 it for herH413 uponH5921 the rockH6697, from the beginningH8462 of harvestH7105 untilH5704 waterH4325 was pouredH5413 uponH5921 them from heavenH8064; and sheH3808 suffered neitherH3808 the birdsH5775 of the air to restH5117 on them by dayH3119, norH3808 the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 by nightH3915.
11And it was toldH5046 DavidH1732 whatH834 RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, the concubineH6370 of SaulH7586, had doneH6213.
12And DavidH1732 went and tookH3947 the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and the bonesH6106 of JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 from the menH1121 of Jabesh-gilead, whichH834 had stolenH1589 them from the streetH7339 of Beth-shanH1052, whereH834 the PhilistinesH6430 had hangedH8518 them, in the dayH3117 that the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 SaulH7586 in GilboaH1533:
13and he broughtH5927 upH5927 from thence the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and the bonesH6106 of JonathanH3083 his sonH1121; and they gatheredH622 the bonesH6106 of them that were hangedH3363.
14And they buriedH6912 the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 in the countryH776 of BenjaminH1144 in ZelaH6762, in the sepulchre of KishH7027 his fatherH1: and they performed allH3605 that the kingH4428 commandedH6680. And afterH310 that GodH430 was entreatedH6279 for the landH776.
