2 Samuel 21:10-15
New International Version
10 Rizpah daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it out for herself on a rock. From the beginning of the harvest till the rain poured down from the heavens on the bodies, she did not let the birds touch them by day or the wild animals by night.(A) 11 When David was told what Aiah’s daughter Rizpah, Saul’s concubine, had done, 12 he went and took the bones of Saul(B) and his son Jonathan from the citizens of Jabesh Gilead.(C) (They had stolen their bodies from the public square at Beth Shan,(D) where the Philistines had hung(E) them after they struck Saul down on Gilboa.)(F) 13 David brought the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan from there, and the bones of those who had been killed and exposed were gathered up.
14 They buried the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan in the tomb of Saul’s father Kish, at Zela(G) in Benjamin, and did everything the king commanded. After that,(H) God answered prayer(I) in behalf of the land.(J)
Wars Against the Philistines(K)
15 Once again there was a battle between the Philistines(L) and Israel. David went down with his men to fight against the Philistines, and he became exhausted.
