- There was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David sought the face of Yahweh. Yahweh said, "It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he put to death the Gibeonites."
- The king called the Gibeonites, and said to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn to them: and Saul sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah);
- and David said to the Gibeonites, "What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of Yahweh?"
- The Gibeonites said to him, "It is no matter of silver or gold between us and Saul, or his house; neither is it for us to put any man to death in Israel." He said, "Whatever you say, that will I do for you."
- They said to the king, "The man who consumed us, and who devised against us, that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the borders of Israel,
- let seven men of his sons be delivered to us, and we will hang them up to Yahweh in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Yahweh." The king said, "I will give them."
- But the king spared Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of Yahweh's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.
- 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 bore to Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite.
- He delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the mountain before Yahweh, and all seven of them fell together. They were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, at the beginning of barley harvest.
- Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water was poured on them from the sky. She allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day, nor the animals of the field by night.
- It was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
- David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh Gilead, who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, in the day that the Philistines killed Saul in Gilboa;
- and he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son: and they gathered the bones of those who were hanged.
- They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zela, in the tomb of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. After that God was entreated for the land.
- The Philistines had war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. David grew faint;
- and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred [shekels] of brass in weight, he being armed with a new [sword], thought to have slain David.
- But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, "You shall go no more out with us to battle, that you don't quench the lamp of Israel."
- It came to pass after this, that there was again war with the Philistines at Gob: then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
- There was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaareoregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite's brother, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
- There was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
- When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David's brother, killed him.
- These four were born to the giant in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

- ויהי רעב בימי דוד שלש שנים שנה אחרי שנה ויבקש דוד את־פני יהוה ס ויאמר יהוה אל־שאול ואל־בית הדמים על־אשר־המית את־הגבענים׃
- ויקרא המלך לגבענים ויאמר אליהם והגבענים לא מבני ישראל המה כי אם־מיתר האמרי ובני ישראל נשבעו להם ויבקש שאול להכתם בקנאתו לבני־ישראל ויהודה׃
- ויאמר דוד אל־הגבענים מה אעשה לכם ובמה אכפר וברכו את־נחלת יהוה׃
- ויאמרו לו הגבענים אין־ כסף וזהב עם־שאול ועם־ביתו ואין־לנו איש להמית בישראל ויאמר מה־אתם אמרים אעשה לכם׃
- ויאמרו אל־המלך האיש אשר כלנו ואשר דמה־לנו נשמדנו מהתיצב בכל־גבל ישראל׃
- ־לנו שבעה אנשים מבניו והוקענום ליהוה בגבעת שאול בחיר יהוה ס ויאמר המלך אני אתן׃
- ויחמל המלך על־מפי־בשת בן־יהונתן בן־שאול על־שבעת יהוה אשר בינתם בין דוד ובין יהונתן בן־שאול׃
- ויקח המלך את־שני בני רצפה בת־איה אשר ילדה לשאול את־ארמני ואת־מפבשת ואת־חמשת בני מיכל בת־שאול אשר ילדה לעדריאל בן־ברזלי המחלתי׃
- ויתנם ביד הגבענים ויקיעם בהר לפני יהוה ויפלו יחד המתו בימי קציר בראשנים קציר שערים׃
- ותקח רצפה בת־איה את־השק ותטהו לה אל־הצור מתחלת קציר עד נתך־מים עליהם מן־השמים ולא־נתנה עוף השמים לנוח עליהם יוםם ואת־חית השדה לילה׃
- ויגד לדוד את אשר־עשתה רצפה בת־איה פלגש שאול׃
- וילך דוד ויקח את־עצמות שאול ואת־עצמות יהונתן בנו מאת בעלי יביש גלעד אשר גנבו אתם מרחב בית־שן אשר ביום הכות פלשתים את־שאול בגלבע׃
- ויעל משם את־עצמות שאול ואת־עצמות יהונתן בנו ויאספו את־עצמות המוקעים׃
- ויקברו את־עצמות־שאול ויהונתן־בנו בארץ בנימן בצלע בקבר קיש אביו ויעשו כל אשר־צוה המלך ויעתר אלהים לארץ אחרי־כן׃ ף
- ותהי־עוד מלחמה לפלשתים את־ישראל וירד דוד ועבדיו עמו וילחמו את־פלשתים ויעף דוד׃
- בנב אשר בילידי הרפה ומשקל קינו שלש מאות משקל נחשת והוא חגור חדשה ויאמר להכות את־דוד׃
- ויעזר־לו אבישי בן־צרויה ויך את־הפלשתי וימיתהו אז נשבעו אנשי־דוד לו לאמר לא־תצא עוד אתנו למלחמה ולא תכבה את־נר ישראל׃ ף
- ויהי אחרי־כן ותהי־עוד המלחמה בגוב עם־פלשתים אז הכה סבכי החשתי את־סף אשר בילדי הרפה׃ ף
- ותהי־עוד המלחמה בגוב עם־פלשתים ויך אלחןן בן־יערי ארגים בית הלחמי את גלית הגתי ועץ חניתו כמנור ארגים׃ ס
- ותהי־עוד מלחמה בגת ויהי איש ואצבעת ידיו ואצבעת רגליו שש ושש עשרים וארבע מספר וגם־הוא ילד להרפה׃
- ויחרף את־ישראל ויכהו יהונתן בן־ אחי דוד׃
- את־ארבעת אלה ילדו להרפה בגת ויפלו ביד־דוד וביד עבדיו׃ ף

- Facta est quoque fames in diebus David tribus annis jugiter : et consuluit David oraculum Domini. Dixitque Dominus : Proper Saul, et domum ejus sanguinum, quia occidit Gabaonitas.
- Vocatis ergo Gabaonitis rex, dixit ad eos (porro Gabaonitæ non erant de filiis Israël, sed reliquiæ Amorrhæorum : filii quippe Israël juraverunt eis, et voluit Saul percutere eos zelo, quasi pro filiis Israël et Juda),
- dixit ergo David ad Gabaonitas : Quid faciam vobis ? et quod erit vestri piaculum, ut benedicatis hæreditati Domini ?
- Dixeruntque ei Gabaonitæ : Non est nobis super argento et auro quæstio, sed contra Saul, et contra domum ejus : neque volumus ut interficiatur homo de Israël. Ad quos rex ait : Quid ergo vultis ut faciam vobis ?
- Qui dixerunt regi : Virum, qui attrivit nos et oppressit inique, ita delere debemus, ut ne unus quidem residuus sit de stirpe ejus in cunctis finibus Israël.
- Dentur nobis septem viri de filiis ejus, ut crucifigamus eos Domino in Gabaa Saul, quondam electi Domini. Et ait rex : Ego dabo.
- Pepercitque rex Miphiboseth filio Jonathæ filii Saul, propter jusjurandum Domini, quod fuerat inter David et inter Jonathan filium Saul.
- Tulit itaque rex duos filios Respha filiæ Aja, quos peperit Sauli, Armoni, et Miphiboseth : et quinque filios Michol filiæ Saul, quos genuerat Hadrieli filio Berzellai, qui fuit de Molathi,
- et dedit eos in manus Gabaonitarum : qui crucifixerunt eos in monte coram Domino : et ceciderunt hi septem simul occisi in diebus messis primis, incipiente messione hordei.
- Tollens autem Respha filia Aja cilicium, substravit sibi supra petram ab initio messis, donec stillaret aqua super eos de cælo : et non dimisit aves lacerare eos per diem, neque bestias per noctem.
- Et nuntiata sunt David quæ fecerat Respha, filia Aja, concubina Saul.
- Et abiit David, et tulit ossa Saul, et ossa Jonathæ filii ejus, a viris Jabes Galaad, qui furati fuerant ea de platea Bethsan, in qua suspenderant eos Philisthiim cum interfecissent Saul in Gelboë :
- et asportavit inde ossa Saul, et ossa Jonathæ filii ejus : et colligentes ossa eorum qui affixi fuerant,
- sepelierunt ea cum ossibus Saul et Jonathæ filii ejus in terra Benjamin, in latere, in sepulchro Cis patris ejus : feceruntque omnia, quæ præceperat rex, et repropitiatus est Deus terræ post hæc.
- Factum est autem rursum prælium Philisthinorum adversum Israël, et descendit David, et servi ejus cum eo, et pugnabant contra Philisthiim. Deficiente autem David,
- Jesbibenob, qui fuit de genere Arapha, cujus ferrum hastæ trecentas uncias appendebat, et accinctus erat ense novo, nisus est percutere David.
- Præsidioque ei fuit Abisai filius Sarviæ et percussum Philisthæum interfecit. Tunc juraverunt viri David, dicentes : Jam non egredieris nobiscum in bellum, ne extinguas lucernam Israël.
- Secundum quoque bellum fuit in Gob contra Philisthæos : tunc percussit Sobochai et Husati, Saph de stirpe Arapha de genere gigantum.
- Tertium quoque fuit bellum in Gob contra Philisthæos, in quo percussit Adeodatus filius Saltus polymitarius Bethlehemites Goliath Gethæum, cujus hastile hastæ erat quasi liciatorium texentium.
- Quartum bellum fuit in Geth : in quo vir fuit excelsus, qui senos in manibus pedibusque habebat digitos, id est, viginti quatuor, et erat de origine Arapha.
- Et blasphemavit Israël : percussit autem eum Jonathan filius Samaa fratris David.
- Hi quatuor nati sunt de Arapha in Geth, et ceciderunt in manu David et servorum ejus.

- Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David inquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites.
- And the king called the Gibeonites, and said unto them; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn unto them: and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and Judah.)
- Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the LORD?
- And the Gibeonites said unto him, We will have no silver nor gold of Saul, nor of his house; neither for us shalt thou kill any man in Israel. And he said, What ye shall say, that will I do for you.
- And they answered the king, The man that consumed us, and that devised against us that we should be destroyed from remaining in any of the coasts of Israel,
- Let seven men of his sons be delivered unto us, and we will hang them up unto the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, whom the LORD did choose. And the king said, I will give them.
- 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.
- But the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bare unto 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:
- And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in the hill before the LORD: and they fell all seven together, and were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, in the beginning of barley harvest.
- And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until water dropped upon them out of heaven, and suffered neither the birds of the air to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
- And it was told David what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.
- And David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, which had stolen them from the street of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them, when the Philistines had slain Saul in Gilboa:
- And he brought up from thence the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered the bones of them that were hanged.
- And the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son buried they in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the sepulchre of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God was intreated for the land.
- Moreover the Philistines had yet war again with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines: and David waxed faint.
- And Ishbi-benob, which was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of brass in weight, he being girded with a new sword, thought to have slain David.
- But Abishai the son of Zeruiah succoured him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David sware unto him, saying, Thou shalt go no more out with us to battle, that thou quench not the light of Israel.
- And it came to pass after this, that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob: then Sibbechai the Hushathite slew Saph, which was of the sons of the giant.
- And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim, a Bethlehemite, slew the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
- And there was yet a battle in Gath, where was a man of great stature, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.
- And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea the brother of David slew him.
- These four were born to the giant in Gath, and fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.
