And when Saul'sH7586 sonH1121 heardH8085 that AbnerH74 was deadH4191 in HebronH2275, his handsH3027 were feebleH7503, and all the IsraelitesH3478 were troubledH926.
And Saul'sH7586 sonH1121 hadH1961 twoH8147 menH582 that were captainsH8269 of bandsH1416: the nameH8034 of the oneH259 was BaanahH1196, and the nameH8034 of the otherH8145 RechabH7394, the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 a BeerothiteH886, of the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144: (for BeerothH881 also was reckonedH2803 to BenjaminH1144: {other: Heb. second}
And the BeerothitesH886 fledH1272 to GittaimH1664, and were sojournersH1481 there until this dayH3117.)
And JonathanH3083, Saul'sH7586 sonH1121, had a sonH1121 that was lameH5223 of his feetH7272. He was fiveH2568 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when the tidingsH8052 cameH935 of SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 out of JezreelH3157, and his nurseH539 took him upH5375, and fledH5127: and it came to pass, as she made hasteH2648 to fleeH5127, that he fellH5307, and became lameH6452. And his nameH8034 was MephiboshethH4648. {Mephibosheth: or, Meribbaal}
And the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196, wentH3212, and cameH935 about the heatH2527 of the dayH3117 to the houseH1004 of IshboshethH378, who layH7901 on a bedH4904 at noonH6672.
And they came thitherH935 into the midstH8432 of the houseH1004, as though they would have fetchedH3947 wheatH2406; and they smoteH5221 him under the fifthH2570 rib: and RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196 his brotherH251 escapedH4422.
For when they cameH935 into the houseH1004, he layH7901 on his bedH4296 in his bedchamberH2315+H4904, and they smoteH5221 him, and slewH4191 him, and beheadedH5493 him, and tookH3947 his headH7218, and gat them awayH3212 throughH1870 the plainH6160 all nightH3915.
And they broughtH935 the headH7218 of IshboshethH378 unto DavidH1732 to HebronH2275, and saidH559 to the kingH4428, Behold the headH7218 of IshboshethH378 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586 thine enemyH341, which soughtH1245 thy lifeH5315; and the LORDH3068 hathH5414 avengedH5360 my lordH113 the kingH4428 this dayH3117 of SaulH7586, and of his seedH2233.
And DavidH1732 answeredH6030 RechabH7394 and BaanahH1196 his brotherH251, the sonsH1121 of RimmonH7417 the BeerothiteH886, and saidH559 unto them, As the LORDH3068 livethH2416, who hath redeemedH6299 my soulH5315 out of all adversityH6869,
When one toldH5046 me, sayingH559, Behold, SaulH7586 is deadH4191, thinking to have broughtH5869 good tidingsH1319, I took holdH270 of him, and slewH2026 him in ZiklagH6860, who thought that I would have givenH5414 him a reward for his tidingsH1309: {thinking…: Heb. he was in his own eyes as a bringer, etc} {who…: or, which was the reward I gave him for his tidings}
How much more, when wickedH7563 menH582 have slainH2026 a righteousH6662 personH376 in his own houseH1004 upon his bedH4904? shall I not therefore now requireH1245 his bloodH1818 of your handH3027, and take you awayH1197 from the earthH776?
And DavidH1732 commandedH6680 his young menH5288, and they slewH2026 them, and cut offH7112 their handsH3027 and their feetH7272, and hanged them upH8518 over the poolH1295 in HebronH2275. But they tookH3947 the headH7218 of IshboshethH378, and buriedH6912 it in the sepulchreH6913 of AbnerH74 in HebronH2275.

And the kingH4428 saidH559, Is there notH657 yet anyH376 of the houseH1004 of SaulH7586, that I may shewH6213 the kindnessH2617 of GodH430 unto him? And ZibaH6717 saidH559 unto the kingH4428, JonathanH3083 hath yet a sonH1121, which is lameH5223 on his feetH7272.
Now the PhilistinesH6430 gathered togetherH6908 all their armiesH4264 to AphekH663: and the IsraelitesH3478 pitchedH2583 by a fountainH5869 which is in JezreelH3157.
And the sonH1121 of JonathanH3083 was MeribbaalH4807; and MeribbaalH4807 begatH3205 MicahH4318. {Meribbaal: or, Mephibosheth.2.Sam.4.4}
So DavidH1732 and his menH582 rose up earlyH7925 to departH3212 in the morningH1242, to returnH7725 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430. And the PhilistinesH6430 went upH5927 to JezreelH3157.
Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478: and the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, Saul'sH7586 sonsH1121.
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H582+H7198 hitH4672 him; and he was soreH3966 woundedH2342 of the archersH3384+H582+H7198. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters, men with bows} {hit…: Heb. found him}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrust me throughH1856 therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrust me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH5375+H3627 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. Therefore SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it. {abuse…: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise upon his swordH2719, and diedH4191 with him.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191, and his threeH7969 sonsH1121, and his armourbearerH5375+H3627, and all his menH582, that same dayH3117 togetherH3162.
And when the menH582 of IsraelH3478 that were on the other sideH5676 of the valleyH6010, and they that were on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383, sawH7200 that the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127, and that SaulH7586 and his sonsH1121 were deadH4191, they forsookH5800 the citiesH5892, and fledH5127; and the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 and dweltH3427 in them.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, when the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 to stripH6584 the slainH2491, that they foundH4672 SaulH7586 and his threeH7969 sonsH1121 fallenH5307 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533.
And they cut offH3772 his headH7218, and stripped offH6584 his armourH3627, and sentH7971 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430 round aboutH5439, to publishH1319 it in the houseH1004 of their idolsH6091, and among the peopleH5971.
And they putH7760 his armourH3627 in the houseH1004 of AshtarothH6252+H1045: and they fastenedH8628 his bodyH1472 to the wallH2346 of BethshanH1052.
