1 During the reign of Davidthere was a famine for three successive years, and Davidsought the face of the LORD.
And the LORD said, "It is because of the blood shed by Sauland his family, because he killed the Gibeonites."
2 At this, David summoned the Gibeonites and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not Israelites, but a remnant of the Amorites. The Israelites had taken an oath concerning them, but in his zeal for Israel and Judah, Saulhad sought to kill them.)
3 So Davidasked the Gibeonites, "What shall I do for you? How can I make amends so that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?"
4 The Gibeonites said to him, "We need no silver or gold from Saulor his house, nor should you put to death anyone in Israel for us."
"Whatever you ask, I will do for you," he replied.
5 And they answered the king, "As for the man who consumed us and plotted against us to exterminate us from existing within any border of Israel, 6 let seven of his male descendants be delivered to us so that we may hang them21:6 Or expose them or execute them; similarly in verse 9before the LORD at Gibeahof Saul, the chosen of the LORD."
"I will give them to you," said the king.
7 Now the king spared Mephiboshethson of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of the oath before the LORD between Davidand Jonathanson of Saul. 8 But the king took Armoniand Mephibosheth, the two sons whom Rizpahdaughter of Aiahhad borne to Saul, as well as the five sons whom Merab21:8 Two Hebrew manuscripts, some LXX manuscripts, and Syriac (see also 1 Samuel 18:19); most Hebrew and LXX manuscripts Michaldaughter of Saulhad borne to Adrielson of Barzillaithe Meholathite. 9 And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them on the hill before the LORD. So all seven of them fell together; they were put to death in the first days of the harvest, at the beginning of the barley harvest.
10 And Rizpahthe daughter of Aiahtook sackcloth and spread it out for herself on a rock. From the beginning of the harvest until the rain from heaven poured down on the bodies, she did not allow the birds of the air to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
11 When Davidwas told what Saul’s concubine Rizpah, daughter of Aiah, had done, 12 he went and took the bones of Sauland his son Jonathanfrom the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the public square of Beth-shanwhere the Philistines had hung the bodies after they had struck down Saulat Gilboa.
13 So David had the bones of Sauland his son Jonathanbrought from there, and they also gathered the bones of those who had been hanged. 14 And they buried the bones of Sauland his son Jonathanin Zelain the land of Benjamin, in the tomb of Saul’s father Kish.
After they had done everything the king had commanded, God answered their prayers for the land.
Four Battles against the Philistines
15 Once again the Philistines waged war against Israel, and Davidand his servants went down and fought against the Philistines. But Davidbecame exhausted.
16 Then Ishbi-benob, a descendant of Rapha,21:16 Or the giant; also in verses 18, 20, and 22whose bronze spear weighed three hundred shekels21:16 300 shekels is approximately 7.5 pounds or 3.4 kilograms.and who was bearing a new sword, resolved to kill David. 17 But Abishaison of Zeruiahcame to his aid, struck the Philistine, and killed him.
Then David’s men swore to him, "You must never again go out with us to battle, so that the lamp of Israel may not be extinguished."
18 Some time later at Gob, there was another battle with the Philistines. At that time Sibbecaithe Hushathitekilled Saph,21:18 Saph is a variant of Sippai; see 1 Chronicles 20:4.a descendant of Rapha.
19 Once again there was a battle with the Philistines at Gob, and Elhananson of Jair21:19 See 1 Chronicles 20:5; Hebrew Jaare-oregimthe Bethlehemitekilled the brother of Goliath21:19 See 1 Chronicles 20:5; Hebrew does not include the brother of.the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20 And there was also a battle at Gath, where there was a man of great stature with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot— twenty-four in all. He too was descended from Rapha, 21 and when he taunted Israel, Jonathanthe son of David’s brother Shimei21:21 Shimei is a variant of Shammah, Shimeah, and Shimea; see 1 Samuel 16:9, 2 Samuel 13:3, and 1 Chronicles 2:13.killed him.
22 So these four descendants of Rapha in Gathfell at the hands of Davidand his servants.
