lesserot@2Samuel:20:1 @ And there happened to be a worthless man, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite; and he blew the cornet, and said, We have no part in David, nor have we any inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, O Israel!

lesserot@2Samuel:20:2 @ So every man of Israel went off from David, following Sheba the son of Bichri; but the men of Judah adhered unto their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:3 @ And David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women, the concubines, whom he had left to guard the house, and put them in a guardhouse, and provided for them, but went not in unto them. So they were confined until the day of their death, living in widowhood.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:4 @ Then said the king to Amassa, Call together for me the men of Judah within three days, and thou present thyself here.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:5 @ So Amassa went to call Judah together; but he remained out longer than the set time which he had appointed him.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:6 @ And David said to Abishai, Now will Sheba the son of Bichri do us more harm than Abshalom: take thou the servants of thy Lord, and pursue after him, lest he succeed in reaching fortified cities, and withdraw himself from our eyes.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:7 @ And there went out after him Joabs men, and the Kerethites, and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men: and they went forth out of Jerusalem, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:8 @ They were close by the great stone which is at Gibon, as Amassa came before them. And Joab was girded with his coat, his garment, and upon it the girdle of the sword which was fastened upon his loins in its sheath; and as he went forth it fell out.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:9 @ And Joab said to Amassa, Art thou in health, my brother? And Joabs right hand took hold of Amassas beard to kiss him.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:10 @ And Amassa did not guard himself against the sword that was in Joabs hand: so he smote him therewith in the fifth rib and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again; and he died. But Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:11 @ And one man of Joabs people remained standing by him, and said, He that favoreth Joab, and he that is for David, follow Joab.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:12 @ And Amassa was wallowing in his blood in the midst of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he put Amassa aside out of the highway into the field, and threw a garment over him, when he saw that every one that came by him stood still.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:13 @ When he was removed out of the highway, every man passed on after Joab, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:14 @ And this one passed through all the tribes of Israel unto Abel, which is of Bethmaachah, and all the Berim: and they assembled themselves together, and went also after him.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:15 @ And they came and besieged him in Abel of Bethmaachah, and they cast up a trench against the city, and it stood enclosed by the troops: and all the people that were with Joab were battering to throw down the wall.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:16 @ Then called a wise woman out of the city, Hear, hear: say, I pray you, unto Joab, Come near as far as hither, that I may speak with thee.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:17 @ And when he was come near unto her, the woman said, Art thou Joab? And he said, I am. Then said she unto him, Hear the words of thy handmaid. And he said, I do hear.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:18 @ Then said she, thus, They ought surely first to have spoken, saying, "Let them ask at least in Abel:" and so would they have come to an end.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:19 @ I am one of the peaceful and faithful in Israel; thou seekest to overthrow a city and a metropolis in Israel: why wilt thou destroy the inheritance of the Lord?

lesserot@2Samuel:20:20 @ And Joab answered and said, Far be it, far be it from me, that I should destroy or ruin.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:21 @ The matter is not so; but a man from the mountains of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri is his name, hath lifted up his hand against the king, against David: give him up alone, and I will withdraw from the city. And the woman said unto Joab, Behold, his head shall be cast down to thee over the wall.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:22 @ And the woman came unto all the people with her wisdom; and they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and cast it down to Joab: and he blew the cornet, and they scattered themselves from the city, every man to his tents. And Joab returned to Jerusalem unto the king.

lesserot@2Samuel:20:23 @ Now Joab was over all the army of Israel; and Benayah the son of Yehoyada was over the Kerethites and over the Pelethites;

lesserot@2Samuel:20:24 @ And Adoram was over the tribute; and Jehoshaphat the son of Achilud was recorder;

lesserot@2Samuel:20:25 @ And Sheva was scribe; and Zadok and Ebyathar were priests;

lesserot@2Samuel:20:26 @ And Ira also the Yairite was an officer of state unto David.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:1 @ And there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David besought the presence of the Lord. And the Lord said, On account of Saul, and on account of the house of blood, is this; because he hath slain the Gibonites.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:2 @ And the king called for the Gibonites, and said unto them:

lesserot@2Samuel:21:3 @ Wherefore David said unto the Gibonites, What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the Lord?

lesserot@2Samuel:21:4 @ And the Gibonites said unto him, We have no concern of silver or gold with Saul and with his house: nor do we wish to kill any man in Israel. And he said, What ye say, will I do for you.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:5 @ And they said to the king, The man that consumed us, and that devised against us that we should be destroyed, so that we should have no footing in all the boundaries of Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:6 @ Let there be delivered unto us seven men of his sons, and we will hang them up unto the Lord in Gibah of Saul, the chosen of the Lord. And the king said, I will give them.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:7 @ But the king had pity on Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan the son of Saul, because of the Lords oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:8 @ And the king took the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Ayah, whom she had born unto Saul, Armoni and Mephibosheth; and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she had brought up for Adriel the son of Barzillai the Mecholathite:

lesserot@2Samuel:21:9 @ And he delivered them into the hand of the Gibonites, and they hanged them on the mount before the Lord; and they fell, these seven, together; and they were put to death in the first days of harvest, in the beginning of the barleyharvest.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:10 @ And Rizpah the daughter of Ayah took sackcloth, and spread out it for herself upon the rock, from the beginning of the harvest until water dropped down upon them out of heaven, and she suffered neither the birds of heaven to rest on them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:11 @ And it was told to David what Rizpah the daughter of Ayah, the concubine of Saul, had done.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:12 @ And David then went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Yabeshgilad, who had stolen them from the marketplace of Bethshan, where the Philistines had hanged them up, at the time the Philistines had smitten Saul at Gilboa:

lesserot@2Samuel:21:13 @ And he brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son; and they gathered up the bones of those that had been hanged.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:14 @ And they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin at Zela, in the sepulchre of Kish his father: and they performed all that the king had commanded. And after that God was entreated for the land.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:15 @ And the Philistines had again a war with Israel; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines: and David became fatigued.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:16 @ And Yishbi at Nob, who was of the children of the Raphah, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of copper, he being girded with a new armor, thought to slay David.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:17 @ But Abishai the son of Zeruyah succored him, and smote the Philistine, and killed him. Then swore the men of David unto him, saying, Thou shalt go out no more with us to battle, that thou mayest not quench the lamp of Israel.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:18 @ And it came to pass after this, that there was again a battle at Gob, with the Philistines: then smote Sibbechai the Chushathite Saph, who was of the children of the Raphah.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:19 @ And there was again a battle at Gob with the Philistines, when Elchanan the son of Yaareoregim, the Bethlechemite, slew Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear was like a weavers beam.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:20 @ And there was again a battle in Gath, where was a man of 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 Raphah.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:21 @ And he defied Israel; but Jonathan the son of Shimah, the brother of David, slew him.

lesserot@2Samuel:21:22 @ These four were born to the Raphah in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David, and by the hand of his servants.

lesserot@2Samuel:22:1 @ And David spoke unto the Lord the words of this song, and on the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul.
