00:00.000 --> 00:06.920
Chapter 21 Then there was a famine in the
days of David three years, year after

00:06.920 --> 00:07.280
year.

00:07.840 --> 00:13.000
And David inquired of the Lord,
and the Lord answered, It is for Saul and

00:13.000 --> 00:16.400
for his bloody house, because he slew the
Gibeonites.

00:16.640 --> 00:21.180
And the king called the Gibeonites and
said unto them, Now the Gibeonites were

00:21.180 --> 00:24.540
not of the children of Israel,
but of the remnant of the Amorites.

00:24.940 --> 00:27.340
And the children of Israel had sworn unto
them.

00:27.340 --> 00:31.580
And Saul sought to slay them and his zeal
to the children of Israel and Judah.

00:32.820 --> 00:36.500
Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites,
What shall I do for you?

00:37.020 --> 00:41.320
And wherewith shall I make the atonement,
that ye may bless the inheritance of the

00:41.320 --> 00:41.560
Lord?

00:41.860 --> 00:46.360
And the Gibeonites said unto him,
We will have no silver nor gold of Saul

00:46.360 --> 00:47.500
nor of his house.

00:47.980 --> 00:51.360
Neither for us shalt thou kill any man in
Israel.

00:51.540 --> 00:55.300
And he said, What ye shall say,
that will I do for you.

00:55.520 --> 01:00.880
And they answered the king, The man that
consumed us and that devised against us

01:00.880 --> 01:05.280
that we should be destroyed from remaining
in any of the coasts of Israel,

01:06.200 --> 01:12.160
let seven men of his sons be delivered
unto us, and we will hang them up unto the

01:12.160 --> 01:16.520
Lord in Gibeah of Saul, whom the Lord did
choose.

01:16.640 --> 01:18.760
And the king said, I will give them.

01:19.520 --> 01:23.340
But the king spared Mephibosheth,
the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul,

01:23.760 --> 01:27.660
because of the Lord's oath that was
between them, between David and Jonathan,

01:27.900 --> 01:28.620
the son of Saul.

01:29.260 --> 01:34.520
But the king took the two sons of Rizpah,
the daughter of Aiah, whom she bare unto

01:34.520 --> 01:40.480
Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth,
and the five sons of Michael, the daughter

01:40.480 --> 01:45.220
of Saul, whom she brought up for Adriel,
the son of Barzillai, the Meholathite.

01:45.900 --> 01:49.660
And he delivered them into the hands of
the Gibeonites, and they hanged them in

01:49.660 --> 01:50.860
the hill before the Lord.

01:50.860 --> 01:55.500
And they fell all seven together,
and were put to death in the days of

01:55.500 --> 01:59.320
harvest, in the first days, in the
beginning of barley harvest.

02:00.300 --> 02:04.300
And Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah,
took sackcloth, and spread it for her upon

02:04.300 --> 02:08.060
the rock, from the beginning of harvest
until water dropped upon them out of

02:08.060 --> 02:12.040
heaven, and suffered neither the birds of
the air to rest on them by day,

02:12.400 --> 02:14.360
nor the beasts of the field by night.

02:14.900 --> 02:18.520
And it was told David what Rizpah,
the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of

02:18.520 --> 02:19.380
Saul, had done.

02:19.980 --> 02:24.720
And David went, and took the bones of
Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son,

02:24.800 --> 02:28.540
from the men of Jabesh-gilead,
which had stolen them from the streets of

02:28.540 --> 02:32.800
Beth-shan, where the Philistines had
hanged them, when the Philistines had

02:32.800 --> 02:34.400
slain Saul in Gilboa.

02:34.960 --> 02:39.720
And he brought up from thence the bones of
Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son,

02:39.780 --> 02:42.800
and they gathered the bones of them that
were hanged.

02:43.400 --> 02:47.440
And the bones of Saul, and Jonathan his
son, buried they in the country of

02:47.440 --> 02:51.000
Benjamin, in Zila, in the sepulchre of
Kish his father.

02:51.620 --> 02:53.820
And they performed all that the king
commanded.

02:54.780 --> 02:57.860
And after that God was entreated for the
land.

02:58.980 --> 03:02.140
Moreover, the Philistines had yet war
again with Israel.

03:02.680 --> 03:06.940
And David went down, and his servants with
him, and fought against the Philistines.

03:07.400 --> 03:08.660
And David waxed faint.

03:09.680 --> 03:14.300
And Ishbi-binab, which was of the sons of
the giant, the weight of whose spear

03:14.300 --> 03:18.840
weighed three hundred shekels of brass in
weight, he being girded with a new sword,

03:19.200 --> 03:20.380
thought to have slain David.

03:21.200 --> 03:25.300
But Abishai the son of Zeruiah suckered
him, and smote the Philistine,

03:25.640 --> 03:26.300
and killed him.

03:27.100 --> 03:31.820
Then the men of David swear unto him,
saying, Thou shalt go no more out with us

03:31.820 --> 03:35.160
to battle, that thou quench not the light
of Israel.

03:35.440 --> 03:39.020
And it came to pass after this,
that there was again a battle with the

03:39.020 --> 03:40.160
Philistines at Gob.

03:40.860 --> 03:45.540
Then Sibachi the Hushethite slew Saph,
which was of the sons of the giant.

03:46.140 --> 03:51.300
And there was again a battle in Gob with
the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of

03:51.300 --> 03:55.760
Jeori-origam, a Bethlehemite, slew the
brother of Goliath the Gittite,

03:56.200 --> 03:58.820
the staff of whose spear was like a
weaver's beam.

03:59.540 --> 04:02.780
And there was yet a battle in Gath,
where was a man of great stature,

04:03.040 --> 04:07.860
that had on every hand six fingers,
and on every foot six toes, four and

04:07.860 --> 04:08.600
twenty in number.

04:09.080 --> 04:11.320
And he also was born to the giant.

04:11.320 --> 04:16.040
And when he defied Israel, Jonathan the
son of Shimea, the brother of David,

04:16.320 --> 04:16.860
slew him.

04:17.760 --> 04:21.640
These four were born to the giant in Gath,
and fell by the hand of David,

04:22.020 --> 04:23.220
and by the hand of his servants.
