2 Samuel 4:1-8

1And when Ish-bosheth, Saul’sH7586 sonH1121, heardH8085 that AbnerH74 was deadH4191 in HebronH2275, his handsH3027 became feebleH7503, and allH3605 the IsraelitesH3478 were troubled.

2And Ish-bosheth, Saul’sH7586 sonH1121, had twoH8147 menH376 that were captainsH8269 of bandsH1416: the nameH8034 of the one was BaanahH1196, and the nameH8034 of the otherH259 RechabH7394, the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, of the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144: (for BeerothH881 also is reckonedH2803 to BenjaminH1144:

3and the BeerothitesH886 fledH1272 to GittaimH1664, and have been sojourners there untilH5704 this dayH3117.)

4NowH1961 JonathanH3083, Saul’sH7586 sonH1121, had a sonH1121 that was lame of his feetH7272. He was fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when the tidingsH8052 cameH935 of SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 outH935 of JezreelH3157, and his nurseH539 tookH5375 him upH5375, and fledH5127: and it cameH935 to passH935, as she madeH1961 hasteH2648 to fleeH5127, that he fellH5307, and becameH1961 lame. And his nameH8034 was MephiboshethH4648.

5And the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196, wentH935, and cameH935 aboutH413 the heatH2527 of the dayH3117 to the houseH1004 of Ish-boshethH378, as he tookH853 his restH7901 at noonH6672.

6And they cameH935 thither intoH413 the midstH8432 of the houseH1004, as though they would have fetched wheatH2406; and they smoteH5221 him in the bellyH2570: and RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196 his brotherH251 escapedH4422.

7NowH935 when they cameH935 intoH935 the houseH1004, as he layH7901 on his bedH4904 in his bedchamber, they smoteH5221 him, and slewH5221 him, and beheaded him, and tookH3947 his headH7218, and wentH935 by the wayH1870 of the ArabahH6160 allH3605 nightH3915.

8And they broughtH935 the headH7218 of Ish-boshethH378 unto DavidH1732 to HebronH2275, and saidH559 to the kingH4428, BeholdH2009 the headH7218 of Ish-boshethH378 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586 thine enemyH341, whichH834 soughtH1245 thy lifeH5315; and the LORDH3068 hath avengedH5360 my lordH3068 the kingH4428 this dayH3117 of SaulH7586, and of his seedH2233.
