⁷ H935For when they came[H8799] H1004into the houseH7901, he lay[H8802] H4296on his bedH2315in his bedchamberH4904 H5221, and they smote[H8686] H4191him, and slew[H8686] H5493him, and beheaded[H8686] H3947him, and took[H8799] H7218his headH3212, and gat them away[H8799] H1870throughH6160the plainH3915all night.

⁸ H935And they brought[H8686] H7218the headH378of IshboshethH1732unto DavidH2275to HebronH559, and said[H8799] H4428to the kingH7218, Behold the headH378of IshboshethH1121the sonH7586of SaulH341thine enemy[H8802] H1245, which sought[H8765] H5315thy lifeH3068; and the LORDH5414hath[H8799] H5360avengedH113my lordH4428the kingH3117this dayH7586of SaulH2233, and of his seed.

⁹ H1732And DavidH6030answered[H8799] H7394RechabH1196and BaanahH251his brotherH1121, the sonsH7417of RimmonH886the BeerothiteH559, and said[H8799] H3068unto them, As the LORDH2416livethH6299, who hath redeemed[H8804] H5315my soulH6869out of all adversity,

¹⁰ H5046When one told[H8688] H559me, saying[H8800] H7586, Behold, SaulH4191is dead[H8804] H5869, thinking to have broughtH1319good tidings[H8764] H270, I took hold[H8799] H2026of him, and slew[H8799] H6860him in ZiklagH5414, who thought that I would have given[H8800] H1309him a reward for his tidings:

¹¹ H7563How much more, when wickedH582menH2026have slain[H8804] H6662a righteousH376personH1004in his own houseH4904upon his bedH1245? shall I not therefore now require[H8762] H1818his bloodH3027of your handH1197, and take you away[H8765] H776from the earth?

¹² H1732And DavidH6680commanded[H8762] H5288his young menH2026, and they slew[H8799] H7112them, and cut off[H8762] H3027their handsH7272and their feetH8518, and hanged them up[H8799] H1295over the poolH2275in HebronH3947. But they took[H8804] H7218the headH378of IshboshethH6912, and buried[H8799] H6913it in the sepulchreH74of AbnerH2275in Hebron.
