And when Saul's
son
heard
that Abner
was dead
in Hebron,
his hands
were feeble,
and all the Israelites
were troubled.
And Saul's
son
had
two
men
that were captains
of bands:
the name
of the one
was Baanah,
and the name
of the other
Rechab,
the sons
of Rimmon
a Beerothite,
of the children
of Benjamin:
(for Beeroth
also was reckoned
to Benjamin:
anything twisted up together: a body of men

And the Beerothites
fled
to Gittaim,
and were sojourners
there until this day.
)
And Jonathan,
Saul's
son,
had a son
that was lame
of his feet.
He was five
years
old
when the tidings
came
of Saul
and Jonathan
out of Jezreel,
and his nurse
took him up,
and fled:
and it came to pass, as she made haste
to flee,
that he fell,
and became lame.
And his name
was Mephibosheth.

And the sons
of Rimmon
the Beerothite,
Rechab
and Baanah,
went,
and came
about the heat
of the day
to the house
of Ishbosheth,
who lay
on a bed
at noon.

And they came thither
into the midst
of the house,
as though they would have fetched
wheat;
and they smote
him under the fifth
rib: and Rechab
and Baanah
his brother
escaped.
For when they came
into the house,
he lay
on his bed
in his bedchamber,
and they smote
him, and slew
him, and beheaded
him, and took
his head,
and gat them away
through
the plain
all night.

And they brought
the head
of Ishbosheth
unto David
to Hebron,
and said
to the king,
Behold the head
of Ishbosheth
the son
of Saul
thine enemy,
which sought
thy life;
and the LORD
hath
avenged
my lord
the king
this day
of Saul,
and of his seed.

answered

his brother,
the sons

the Beerothite,

When one told
me, saying,
Behold, Saul
is dead,
thinking to have brought
good tidings,
I took hold
of him, and slew
him in Ziklag,
who thought that I would have given
him a reward for his tidings:

How much more, when wicked
men
have slain
a righteous
person
in his own house
upon his bed?
shall I not therefore now require
his blood
of your hand,
and take you away
from the earth?
And David
commanded
his young men,
and they slew
them, and cut off
their hands
and their feet,
and hanged them up
over the pool
in Hebron.
But they took
the head
of Ishbosheth,
and buried
it in the sepulchre
of Abner
in Hebron.
