2 Samuel 4:5-8

2 Samuel 4:5-8

[5] And the sons  of Rimmon  the Beerothite,  Rechab  and Baanah,  and came  about the heat  of the day  to the house  of Ishbosheth,  who lay  on a bed  at noon.  [6] And they came thither  into the midst  of the house,  as though they would have fetched  wheat;  and they smote  him under the fifth  rib: and Rechab  and Baanah  his brother  escaped.  [7] For when they came  into the house,  he lay  on his bed  in his bedchamber,  and they smote  him, and slew  him, and beheaded  him, and took  his head,  through  the plain  all night.  [8] And they brought  the head  of Ishbosheth  unto David  to Hebron,  and said  to the king,  Behold the head  of Ishbosheth  the son  of Saul  thine enemy,  which sought  thy life;  and the LORD  hath  avenged  my lord  the king  this day  of Saul,  and of his seed.
