And
David went and
took the
bones of
Saul and the
bones of
Jonathan his
son from the
men of
Jabeshgilead*, which had
stolen them from the
street of
Bethshan, where the
Philistines had
hanged them,
when the
Philistines had
slain Saul in
Gilboa:

And he brought
up from thence the
bones of
Saul and the
bones of
Jonathan his
son; and they
gathered the
bones of them that were
hanged.

And the
bones of
Saul and
Jonathan his
son buried they in the
country of
Benjamin in
Zelah, in the
sepulchre of
Kish his
father: and they
performed all that the
king commanded. And
after that
God was
intreated for the
land.

Moreover the
Philistines had yet
war again with
Israel; and
David went
down, and his
servants with him, and
fought against the
Philistines: and
David waxed
faint.

And
Ishbibenob, which was of the
sons of the
giant, the
weight of whose
spear weighed
three hundred shekels of
brass in
weight, he being
girded with a
new sword,
thought to have
slain David.

But
Abishai the
son of
Zeruiah succoured him, and
smote the
Philistine, and
killed him. Then the
men of
David sware unto him,
saying, Thou shalt
go no more out with us to
battle, that thou
quench not the
light of
Israel.

And it came to pass after
this, that there was again a
battle with the
Philistines at

Sibbechai the
Hushathite slew Saph, which was of the
sons of the
giant.

And there was again a
battle in
Gob with the
Philistines, where
Elhanan the
son of
Jaareoregim, a
Bethlehemite, slew the brother of
Goliath the
Gittite, the
staff of whose
spear was like a
weaver's beam.

And there was yet a
battle in
Gath, where was a
man of great
stature*, that had on every
hand six fingers, and on every
foot six toes, four and
twenty in
number; and he also was
born to the
giant.

These
