2 Samuel 4:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ The sons of Rimmon of Beeroth, Rechab and Baanah, arrived at the house of Ishbaal during the hottest part of the day while he was taking his midday rest. ⁶ The woman who was stationed at the door had fallen asleep while she was sifting wheat. ⁷ Therefore, Rechab and his brother quietly slipped past her and entered the house, and when they found him asleep on the couch in his bedroom, they attacked and killed him and cut off his head. Then they took his head and traveled throughout the night by way of the Arabah.
