2 Samuel 21:10

The Burial Of Saul's Family

⁹ And he gave them up to the Gibeonites, and they put them to death, hanging them on the mountain before the Lord; all seven came to their end together in the first days of the grain-cutting, at the start of the cutting of the barley. ¹⁰ And Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, took haircloth, placing it on the rock as a bed for herself, from the start of the grain-cutting till rain came down on them from heaven; and she did not let the birds of the air come near them by day, or the beasts of the field by night. ¹¹ And news was given to David of what Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, one of Saul's wives, had done.
