2 Samuel 21:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ We will execute them in the Lord’s presence at Saul’s town Gibeah.” (It was Saul whom the Lord had chosen.)

“I will give them ⌞to you⌟,” the king said.

⁷ But the king spared Mephibosheth, Jonathan’s son and Saul’s grandson, because of the oath in the Lord’s name between David and Jonathan, son of Saul. ⁸ The king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons whom Rizpah (Aiah’s daughter) gave birth to for Saul, and five sons whom Merab ^[a] (Saul’s daughter) gave birth to for Adriel, son of Barzillai from Meholah.
