II Samuel 4
4
Ishbosheth Is Murdered
1When Saul’s son heard that Abner had died in Hebron, #1 Kin. 2:5, 6, 32–34; 2 Tim. 4:14he lost heart, and all Israel was #Ezra 4:4; Is. 13:7troubled. 2Now Saul’s son had two men who were captains of troops. The name of one was Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin. (For #Matt. 2:3Beeroth also was part of Benjamin, 3because the Beerothites fled to #Josh. 18:25Gittaim and have been sojourners there until this day.)
4#Neh. 11:33Jonathan, Saul’s son, had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came #2 Sam. 9:3from Jezreel; and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened, as she made haste to flee, that he fell and became lame. His name was #1 Sam. 29:1, 11Mephibosheth.
5Then the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, set out and came at about the heat of the day to the #2 Sam. 9:6house of Ishbosheth, who was lying on his bed at noon. 6And they came there, all the way into the house, as though to get wheat, and they stabbed him #2 Sam. 2:8, 9in the stomach. Then Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped. 7For when they came into the house, he was lying on his bed in his bedroom; then they struck him and killed him, beheaded him and took his head, and were all night escaping through the plain. 8And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David at Hebron, and said to the king, “Here is the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul your enemy, #2 Sam. 2:23; 20:10who sought your life; and the Lord has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and his descendants.”
9But David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, “As the Lord lives, #1 Sam. 19:2, 10, 11; 23:15; 25:29who has redeemed my life from all adversity, 10when #Gen. 48:16; 1 Kin. 1:29; Ps. 31:7someone told me, saying, ‘Look, Saul is dead,’ thinking to have brought good news, I arrested him and had him executed in Ziklag—the one who thought I would give him a reward for his news. 11How much more, when wicked men have killed a righteous person in his own house on his bed? Therefore, shall I not now #2 Sam. 1:2–16require his blood at your hand and remove you from the earth?” 12So David #(Gen. 9:5, 6; Ps. 9:12)commanded his young men, and they executed them, cut off their hands and feet, and hanged them by the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in the #2 Sam. 1:15tomb of Abner in Hebron.
