21:10. And Respha the daughter of Aia took haircloth, and spread it
under her upon the rock from the beginning of the harvest, till water
dropped upon them out of heaven: and suffered neither the birds to tear
them by day, nor the beasts by night.
21:11. And it was told David, what Respha the daughter of Aia, the
concubine of Saul, had done.
21:12. And David went, and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of
Jonathan his son from the men of Jabes Galaad, who had stolen them from
the street of Bethsan, where the Philistines had hanged them when they
had slain Saul in Gelboe.
21:13. And he brought from thence the bones of Saul, and the bones of
Jonathan his son, and they gathered up the bones of them that were
crucified,
21:14. And they buried them with the bones of Saul, and of Jonathan his
son in the land of Benjamin, in the side, in the sepulchre of Cis his
father: and they did all that the king had commanded, and God shewed
mercy again to the land after these things.
21:15. And the Philistines made war again against Israel, and David went
down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. And
David growing faint,
21:16. Jesbibenob, who was of the race of Arapha, the iron of whose
spear weighed three hundred ounces, being girded with a new sword,
attempted to kill David.
21:17. And Abisai the son of Sarvia rescued him, and striking the
Philistine killed him. Then David's men swore unto him saying: Thou
shalt go no more out with us to battle, lest thou put out the lamp of
Israel.
21:18. There was also a second battle in Gob against the Philistines:
then Sobochai of Husathi slew Saph of the race of Arapha of the family
of the giants.
21:19. And there was a third battle in Gob against the Philistines, in
which Adeodatus the son of the Forrest an embroiderer of Bethlehem slew
Goliath the Gethite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
Adeodatus the son of the Forrest... So it is rendered in the Latin
Vulgate, by giving the interpretation of the Hebrew names, which are
Elhanan the son of Jaare.
21:20. A fourth battle was in Geth: where there was a man of great
stature, that had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot,
four and twenty in all, and he was of the race of Arapha.
21:21. And he reproached Israel: and Jonathan the son of Samae the
brother of David slew him.
21:22. These four were born of Arapha in Geth, and they fell by the hand
of David, and of his servants.
2 Kings Chapter 22
King David's psalm of thanksgiving for his deliverance from all his
enemies.
22:1. And David spoke to the Lord the words of this canticle, in the day
that the Lord delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out
of the hand of Saul,
22:2. And he said: The Lord is my rock, and my strength, and my saviour.
22:3. God is my strong one, in him will I trust: my shield, and the horn
of my salvation: he lifteth me up, and is my refuge: my saviour, thou
wilt deliver me from iniquity.
22:4. I will call on the Lord who is worthy to be praised: and I shall
be saved from my enemies.
22:5. For the pangs of death have surrounded me: the floods of Belial
have made me afraid.
22:6. The cords of hell compassed me: the snares of death prevented me.
