Holy Name King James Version (KJV)

2 Samuel 21

1 The three years' famine for the Gibeonites ceaseth, by hanging seven of Saul's sons. 10 Rizpah's kindness unto the dead. 12 David burrieth the bones of Saul and Jonathan in his father's sepulchre. 15 Four battles against the Philistines, wherein four valiants of David slay four giants.

 21:1 ¶ Then there was x1961 a famine 7458 in the days 3117 of David 1732 three 7969 years, 8141 year 8141 after 310 year; 8141 and David 1732 enquired 1245 z8762 x6440 of y6440 Yahweh. 3068 And Yahweh 3068 answered, 559 z8799 [It is] for x413 Saul, 7586 and for x413 [his] bloody 1818 house, 1004 because x5921 x834 he slew 4191 z8689 x853 the Gibeonites. 1393

 21:2 And the king 4428 called 7121 z8799 the Gibeonites, 1393 and said 559 z8799 unto x413 them; (now the Gibeonites 1393 [were] not x3808 of the children 1121 x4480 of Israel, 3478 but x3588 x518 of the remnant 3499 x4480 of the Amorites; 567 and the children 1121 of Israel 3478 had sworn 7650 z8738 unto them: and Saul 7586 sought 1245 z8762 to slay 5221 z8687 them in his zeal 7065 z8763 to the children 1121 of Israel 3478 and Judah.) 3063

 21:3 Wherefore David 1732 said 559 z8799 unto x413 the Gibeonites, 1393 What x4100 shall I do 6213 z8799 for you? and wherewith x4100 shall I make the atonement, 3722 z8762 that ye may bless 1288 z8761 x853 the inheritance 5159 of Yahweh? 3068

 21:4 And the Gibeonites 1393 said 559 z8799 unto him, We will have no x369 silver 3701 nor gold 2091 of 5973 Saul, 7586 nor of x5973 his house; 1004 neither x369 for us shalt thou kill 4191 z8687 any man 376 in Israel. 3478 And he said, 559 z8799 What x4100 ye x859 shall say, 559 z8802 [that] will I do 6213 z8799 for you.

 21:5 And they answered 559 z8799 x413 the king, 4428 The man 376 that x834 consumed 3615 z8765 us, and that x834 devised 1819 z8765 against us [that] we should be destroyed 8045 z8738 from remaining 3320 z8692 x4480 in any x3605 of the coasts 1366 of Israel, 3478

 21:6 Let seven 7651 men y582 x376 of his sons 1121 x4480 be delivered 5414 z8714 unto us, and we will hang x3363 them up y3363 z8689 unto Yahweh 3068 in Gibeah 1390 of Saul, 7586 [whom] Yahweh 3068 did choose. 972 And the king 4428 said, 559 z8799 I x589 will give 5414 z8799 [them].

 21:7 But the king 4428 spared 2550 z8799 x5921 Mephibosheth, 4648 the son 1121 of Jonathan 3083 the son 1121 of Saul, 7586 because x5921 of Yahweh's 3068 oath 7621 that x834 [was] between x996 them, between x996 David 1732 and Jonathan 3083 the son 1121 of Saul. 7586

 21:8 But the king 4428 took 3947 z8799 x853 the two 8147 sons 1121 of Rizpah 7532 the daughter 1323 of Aiah, 345 whom x834 she bare 3205 z8804 unto Saul, 7586 x853 Armoni 764 and Mephibosheth; 4648 and the five 2568 sons 1121 of Michal 4324 the daughter 1323 of Saul, 7586 whom x834 she brought up 3205 z8804 for Adriel 5741 the son 1121 of Barzillai 1271 the Meholathite: 4259

 21:9 And he delivered 5414 z8799 them into the hands 3027 of the Gibeonites, 1393 and they hanged 3363 z8686 them in the hill 2022 before 6440 Yahweh: 3068 and they fell 5307 z8799 [all] seven 7651 z8675 y7659 together, 3162 and were put to death 4191 z8717 in the days 3117 of harvest, 7105 in the first 7223 [days], in the beginning 8462 of barley 8184 harvest. 7105

 21:10 ¶ And Rizpah 7532 the daughter 1323 of Aiah 345 took 3947 z8799 x853 sackcloth, 8242 and spread 5186 z8686 it for her upon x413 the rock, 6697 from the beginning 8462 x4480 of harvest 7105 until x5704 water 4325 dropped 5413 z8738 upon x5921 them out of x4480 heaven, 8064 and suffered 5414 z8804 neither x3808 the birds 5775 of the air 8064 to rest 5117 z8800 on x5921 them by day, 3119 nor the beasts 2416 of the field 7704 by night. 3915

 21:11 And it was told 5046 z8714 David 1732 x853 what x834 Rizpah 7532 the daughter 1323 of Aiah, 345 the concubine 6370 of Saul, 7586 had done. 6213 z8804

 21:12 ¶ And David 1732 went y3212 z8799 x1980 and took 3947 z8799 x853 the bones 6106 of Saul 7586 and the bones 6106 of Jonathan 3083 his son 1121 from x4480 x854 the men 1167 of Jabeshgilead, 3003 1568 which x834 had stolen 1589 z8804 them from the street 7339 x4480 of Bethshan, 1052 where x834 x8033 the Philistines 6430 had hanged 8511 z8804 z8675 y8518 them, when 3117 the Philistines 6430 had slain 5221 z8687 x853 Saul 7586 in Gilboa: 1533

 21:13 And he brought up 5927 z8686 from thence x4480 x8033 x853 the bones 6106 of Saul 7586 and the bones 6106 of Jonathan 3083 his son; 1121 and they gathered 622 z8799 x853 the bones 6106 of them that were hanged. 3363 z8716

 21:14 And x853 the bones 6106 of Saul 7586 and Jonathan 3083 his son 1121 buried 6912 z8799 they in the country 776 of Benjamin 1144 in Zelah, 6762 in the sepulchre 6913 of Kish 7027 his father: 1 and they performed 6213 z8799 all x3605 that x834 the king 4428 commanded. 6680 z8765 And after y310 that x310 x3651 Elohim 430 was intreated 6279 z8735 for the land. 776

 21:15 ¶ Moreover the Philistines 6430 had x1961 yet war 4421 again with x854 Israel; 3478 and David 1732 went down, 3381 z8799 and his servants 5650 with x5973 him, and fought y3898 z8735 against x3898 x853 the Philistines: 6430 and David 1732 waxed faint. 5774 z8799

 21:16 And Ishbibenob, 3430 which x834 [was] of the sons 3211 of the giant, y7497 x7498 the weight 4948 of whose spear 7013 [weighed] three 7969 hundred 3967 [shekels] of brass 5178 in weight, 4948 he x1931 being girded 2296 z8803 with a new 2319 [sword], thought 559 z8799 to have slain 5221 z8687 x853 David. 1732

 21:17 But Abishai 52 the son 1121 of Zeruiah 6870 succoured 5826 z8799 him, and smote 5221 z8686 x853 the Philistine, 6430 and killed 4191 z8686 him. Then x227 the men y582 x376 of David 1732 sware 7650 z8738 unto him, saying, 559 z8800 Thou shalt go 3318 z8799 no x3808 more x5750 out with us to battle, 4421 that thou quench 3518 z8762 not x3808 x853 the light 5216 of Israel. 3478

 21:18 And it came to pass x1961 after x310 this, y310 x3651 that there was x1961 again x5750 a battle 4421 with x5973 the Philistines 6430 at Gob: 1359 then x227 Sibbechai 5444 the Hushathite 2843 slew 5221 z8689 x853 Saph, 5593 which x834 [was] of the sons 3211 of the giant. y7497 x7498

 21:19 And there was x1961 again x5750 a battle 4421 in Gob 1359 with x5973 the Philistines, 6430 where Elhanan 445 the son 1121 of Jaareoregim, 3296 a Bethlehemite, 1022 slew 5221 z8686 [the brother of] x853 Goliath 1555 the Gittite, 1663 the staff 6086 of whose spear 2595 [was] like a weaver's 707 z8802 beam. 4500

 21:20 And there was x1961 yet x5750 a battle 4421 in Gath, 1661 where was x1961 a man 376 of [great] stature, 4055 y4067 z8675 that had on every hand 3027 six 8337 fingers, 676 and on every foot 7272 six 8337 toes, 676 four 702 and twenty 6242 in number; 4557 and he x1931 also x1571 was born 3205 z8795 to the giant. y7497 x7498

 21:21 And when he defied 2778 z8762 x853 Israel, 3478 Jonathan 3083 the son 1121 of Shimea 8092 the brother 251 of David 1732 slew 5221 z8686 him.

 21:22 These x428 x853 four 702 were born 3205 z8795 to the giant y7497 x7498 in Gath, 1661 and fell 5307 z8799 by the hand 3027 of David, 1732 and by the hand 3027 of his servants. 5650
