2 Samuel 21:7-9
New American Standard Bible
7 But the king spared (A)Mephibosheth, the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, (B)because of the oath of the Lord which was between them, between David and Saul’s son Jonathan. 8 So the king took the two sons of (C)Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, Armoni and Mephibosheth whom she had borne to Saul, and the five sons of [a](D)Merab the daughter of Saul, whom she had borne to Adriel the son of Barzillai the (E)Meholathite. 9 Then he handed them over to the Gibeonites, and they [b]hanged them on the mountain before the Lord, so that the seven of them fell together; and they were put to death in the first days of harvest at (F)the beginning of barley harvest.
