    1 In the days of David, there was a famine for three years, year after year, and David sought the LORD. And the LORD answered, It is because of Saul and his bloody house, because he killed the Gibeonites.

    2 So the king called the Gibeonites and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but a remnant of the Amorites; and the Israelites had sworn to them. Yet Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for Israel and Judah.)

    3 Therefore David said to the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? And how shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?

    4 And the Gibeonites said to him, We will have no silver or gold from Saul or his house, neither shall you kill any man in Israel for us. And he said, Whatever you say, that will I do for you.
