Then there was a famineH7458 in the daysH3117 of DavidH1732 threeH7969 yearsH8141, yearH8141 afterH310 yearH8141; and DavidH1732 enquiredH1245 ofH6440 the LORDH3068. And the LORDH3068 answeredH559, It is for SaulH7586, and for his bloodyH1818 houseH1004, because he slewH4191 the GibeonitesH1393. {enquired…: Heb. sought the face, etc}
And the kingH4428 calledH7121 the GibeonitesH1393, and saidH559 unto them; (now the GibeonitesH1393 were not of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, but of the remnantH3499 of the AmoritesH567; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 had swornH7650 unto them: and SaulH7586 soughtH1245 to slayH5221 them in his zealH7065 to the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063.)
Wherefore DavidH1732 saidH559 unto the GibeonitesH1393, What shall I doH6213 for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonementH3722, that ye may blessH1288 the inheritanceH5159 of the LORDH3068?
And the GibeonitesH1393 saidH559 unto him, We will have no silverH3701 nor goldH2091 ofH5973 SaulH7586, nor of his houseH1004; neither for us shalt thou killH4191 any manH376 in IsraelH3478. And he saidH559, What ye shall sayH559, that will I doH6213 for you. {We will…: or, It is not silver nor gold that we have to do with Saul or his house, neither pertains it to us to kill, etc}
And they answeredH559 the kingH4428, The manH376 that consumedH3615 us, and that devisedH1819 against us that we should be destroyedH8045 from remainingH3320 in any of the coastsH1366 of IsraelH3478, {devised…: or, cut us off}
Let sevenH7651 menH582 of his sonsH1121 be deliveredH5414 unto us, and we will hang them upH3363 unto the LORDH3068 in GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586, whom the LORDH3068 did chooseH972. And the kingH4428 saidH559, I will giveH5414 them. {whom…: or, chosen of the LORD}
But the kingH4428 sparedH2550 MephiboshethH4648, the sonH1121 of JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586, because of the LORD'SH3068 oathH7621 that was between them, between DavidH1732 and JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of SaulH7586.
But the kingH4428 tookH3947 the twoH8147 sonsH1121 of RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, whom she bareH3205 unto SaulH7586, ArmoniH764 and MephiboshethH4648; and the fiveH2568 sonsH1121 of MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586, whom she brought upH3205 for AdrielH5741 the sonH1121 of BarzillaiH1271 the MeholathiteH4259: {Michal: or, Michal's sister} {brought…: Heb. bare to Adriel}
And he deliveredH5414 them into the handsH3027 of the GibeonitesH1393, and they hangedH3363 them in the hillH2022 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: and they fellH5307 all sevenH7651+H7659 togetherH3162, and were put to deathH4191 in the daysH3117 of harvestH7105, in the firstH7223 days, in the beginningH8462 of barleyH8184 harvestH7105.
And RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345 tookH3947 sackclothH8242, and spreadH5186 it for her upon the rockH6697, from the beginningH8462 of harvestH7105 until waterH4325 droppedH5413 upon them out of heavenH8064, and sufferedH5414 neither the birdsH5775 of the airH8064 to restH5117 on them by dayH3119, nor the beastsH2416 of the fieldH7704 by nightH3915.
And it was toldH5046 DavidH1732 what RizpahH7532 the daughterH1323 of AiahH345, the concubineH6370 of SaulH7586, had doneH6213.
And DavidH1732 wentH3212 and tookH3947 the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and the bonesH6106 of JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 from the menH1167 of JabeshgileadH3003+H1568, which had stolenH1589 them from the streetH7339 of BethshanH1052, where the PhilistinesH6430 had hangedH8511+H8518 them, whenH3117 the PhilistinesH6430 had slainH5221 SaulH7586 in GilboaH1533:
And he brought upH5927 from thence the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and the bonesH6106 of JonathanH3083 his sonH1121; and they gatheredH622 the bonesH6106 of them that were hangedH3363.
And the bonesH6106 of SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 buriedH6912 they in the countryH776 of BenjaminH1144 in ZelahH6762, in the sepulchreH6913 of KishH7027 his fatherH1: and they performedH6213 all that the kingH4428 commandedH6680. And afterH310 that GodH430 was intreatedH6279 for the landH776.
Moreover the PhilistinesH6430 had yet warH4421 again with IsraelH3478; and DavidH1732 went downH3381, and his servantsH5650 with him, and foughtH3898 against the PhilistinesH6430: and DavidH1732 waxed faintH5774.
And IshbibenobH3430, which was of the sonsH3211 of the giantH7497, the weightH4948 of whose spearH7013 weighed threeH7969 hundredH3967 shekels of brassH5178 in weightH4948, he being girdedH2296 with a newH2319 sword, thoughtH559 to have slainH5221 DavidH1732. {the giant: or, Rapha} {spear: Heb. the staff, or, the head}
But AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 succouredH5826 him, and smoteH5221 the PhilistineH6430, and killedH4191 him. Then the menH582 of DavidH1732 swareH7650 unto him, sayingH559, Thou shalt goH3318 no more out with us to battleH4421, that thou quenchH3518 not the lightH5216 of IsraelH3478. {light: Heb. candle, or, lamp}
And it came to pass after thisH310, that there was again a battleH4421 with the PhilistinesH6430 at GobH1359: then SibbechaiH5444 the HushathiteH2843 slewH5221 SaphH5593, which was of the sonsH3211 of the giantH7497. {the giant: or, Rapha} {Saph: or, Sippai}
And there was again a battleH4421 in GobH1359 with the PhilistinesH6430, where ElhananH445 the sonH1121 of JaareoregimH3296, a BethlehemiteH1022, slewH5221 the brother of GoliathH1555 the GittiteH1663, the staffH6086 of whose spearH2595 was like a weaver'sH707 beamH4500. {Jaareoregim: or, Jair}
And there was yet a battleH4421 in GathH1661, where was a manH376 of great statureH4067+H4055, that had on every handH3027 sixH8337 fingersH676, and on every footH7272 sixH8337 toesH676, fourH702 and twentyH6242 in numberH4557; and he also was bornH3205 to the giantH7497. {the giant: or, Rapha}
And when he defiedH2778 IsraelH3478, JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of ShimeaH8092 the brotherH251 of DavidH1732 slewH5221 him. {defied: or, reproached}
These fourH702 were bornH3205 to the giantH7497 in GathH1661, and fellH5307 by the handH3027 of DavidH1732, and by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650.

And they buriedH6912 AbnerH74 in HebronH2275: and the kingH4428 lifted upH5375 his voiceH6963, and weptH1058 at the graveH6913 of AbnerH74; and all the peopleH5971 weptH1058.
And ZelahH6762, ElephH507, and JebusiH2983, which is JerusalemH3389, GibeathH1394, and KirjathH7157; fourteenH702+H6240 citiesH5892 with their villagesH2691. This is the inheritanceH5159 of the childrenH1121 of BenjaminH1144 according to their familiesH4940.
And DavidH1732 builtH1129 there an altarH4196 unto the LORDH3068, and offeredH5927 burnt offeringsH5930 and peace offeringsH8002. So the LORDH3068 was intreatedH6279 for the landH776, and the plagueH4046 was stayedH6113 from IsraelH3478.
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.
When thou art departedH3212 from meH5978 to dayH3117, then thou shalt findH4672 twoH8147 menH582 by Rachel'sH7354 sepulchreH6900 in the borderH1366 of BenjaminH1144 at ZelzahH6766; and they will sayH559 unto thee, The assesH860 which thou wentestH1980 to seekH1245 are foundH4672: and, lo, thy fatherH1 hath leftH5203 the careH1697 of the assesH860, and sorrowethH1672 for you, sayingH559, What shall I doH6213 for my sonH1121? {care: Heb. business}
And he saidH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, PutH7760 every manH376 his swordH2719 by his sideH3409, and goH5674 in and outH7725 from gateH8179 to gateH8179 throughout the campH4264, and slayH2026 every manH376 his brotherH251, and every manH376 his companionH7453, and every manH376 his neighbourH7138.
And the childrenH1121 of LeviH3878 didH6213 according to the wordH1697 of MosesH4872: and there fellH5307 of the peopleH5971 that dayH3117 about threeH7969 thousandH505 menH376.
For MosesH4872 had saidH559, Consecrate yourselvesH4390+H3027 to dayH3117 to the LORDH3068, evenH3588 every manH376 upon his sonH1121, and upon his brotherH251; that he may bestowH5414 upon you a blessingH1293 this dayH3117. {For Moses…: or, And Moses said, Consecrate yourselves to day to the LORD, because every man hath been against his brother, etc} {Consecrate…: Heb. Fill your hands}
And he shall have it, and his seedH2233 afterH310 him, even the covenantH1285 of an everlastingH5769 priesthoodH3550; becauseH834 he was zealousH7065 for his GodH430, and made an atonementH3722 for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
And they raisedH6965 over him a greatH1419 heapH1530 of stonesH68 unto this dayH3117. So the LORDH3068 turnedH7725 from the fiercenessH2740 of his angerH639. Wherefore the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 was calledH7121, The valleyH6010 of AchorH5911, unto this dayH3117. {Achor: that is, Trouble}
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto them, TakeH8610 the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168; let not oneH376 of them escapeH4422. And they tookH8610 them: and ElijahH452 brought them downH3381 to the brookH5158 KishonH7028, and slewH7819 them there. {Take: or, Apprehend}
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto AhabH256, Get thee upH5927, eatH398 and drinkH8354; for there is a soundH6963 of abundanceH1995 of rainH1653. {a sound…: or, a sound of a noise of rain}

JudahH3063 mournethH56, and the gatesH8179 thereof languishH535; they are blackH6937 unto the groundH776; and the cryH6682 of JerusalemH3389 is gone upH5927.
And their noblesH117 have sentH7971 their little onesH6810 to the watersH4325: they cameH935 to the pitsH1356+H1360, and foundH4672 no waterH4325; they returnedH7725 with their vesselsH3627 emptyH7387; they were ashamedH954 and confoundedH3637, and coveredH2645 their headsH7218.
Because the groundH127 is chaptH2865, for there was no rainH1653 in the earthH776, the plowmenH406 were ashamedH954, they coveredH2645 their headsH7218.
Yea, the hindH365 also calvedH3205 in the fieldH7704, and forsookH5800 it, because there was no grassH1877.
And the wild assesH6501 did standH5975 in the high placesH8205, they snuffed upH7602 the windH7307 like dragonsH8577; their eyesH5869 did failH3615, because there was no grassH6212.
O LORDH3068, though our iniquitiesH5771 testifyH6030 against us, doH6213 thou it for thy name'sH8034 sake: for our backslidingsH4878 are manyH7231; we have sinnedH2398 against thee.
Yea, the LORDH3068 will answerH6030 and sayH559 unto his peopleH5971, Behold, I will sendH7971 you cornH1715, and wineH8492, and oilH3323, and ye shall be satisfiedH7646 therewith: and I will no more makeH5414 you a reproachH2781 among the heathenH1471:
Thus hath the LordH136 GODH3069 shewedH7200 unto me; and, behold, he formedH3335 grasshoppersH1462 in the beginningH8462 of the shooting upH5927 of the latter growthH3954; and, lo, it was the latter growthH3954 afterH310 the king'sH4428 mowingsH1488. {grasshoppers: or, green worms}
And it came to pass, that when they had made an endH3615 of eatingH398 the grassH6212 of the landH776, then I saidH559, O LordH136 GODH3069, forgiveH5545, I beseech thee: by whom shall JacobH3290 ariseH6965? for he is smallH6996. {by…: or, who of (or, for,) Jacob shall stand?}
The LORDH3068 repentedH5162 for this: It shall not be, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
Thus hath the LordH136 GODH3069 shewedH7200 unto me: and, behold, the LordH136 GODH3069 calledH7121 to contendH7378 by fireH784, and it devouredH398 the greatH7227 deepH8415, and did eat upH398 a partH2506.
Then saidH559 I, O LordH136 GODH3069, ceaseH2308, I beseech thee: by whom shall JacobH3290 ariseH6965? for he is smallH6996. {by…: or, who of (or, for,) Jacob shall stand?}
The LORDH3068 repentedH5162 for this: This also shall not be, saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069.
