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. 5 And they answered the king, The man who consumed us and plotted against us to destroy us from remaining in any territory of Israel, 6 Let seven of his descendants be delivered to us, and we will hang them before the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, whom the LORD chose. And the king said, I will give them. 7 But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of the LORD's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul. 8 But the king took the two sons of Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal, the daughter of Saul, whom she brought up for Adriel, the son of Barzillai the Meholathite: 9 And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them on the hill before the LORD; and they all seven fell together and were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, in the beginning of barley harvest. 10 And Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, took sackcloth and spread it upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water dropped upon them out of heaven, and allowed neither the birds of the air to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night. 11 And it was told David what Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done. 12 And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabeshgilead, who had stolen them from the street of Bethshan, where the Philistines had hanged them, when the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa: 13 And he brought up the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from there; and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged. 14 And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the tomb of Kish his father; and they carried out all that the king commanded. And after that, God was entreated for the land.
  • 1 Kgs 22:20-23 : 20 And the Lord said, Who shall persuade Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramothgilead? And one said on this manner, and another said on that manner. 21 And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. 22 And the Lord said to him, How? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, You shall persuade him, and prevail also: go forth, and do so. 23 Now therefore, behold, the Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all of these prophets of yours, and the Lord has spoken evil concerning you.
