2 Samuel 21:3-6 New Century Version (NCV)

3. He asked, “What can I do for you? How can I make up for the harm done so you can bless the Lord’s people?”

4. The Gibeonites said to David, “We cannot demand silver or gold from Saul or his family. And we don’t have the right to kill anyone in Israel.”Then David asked, “What do you want me to do for you?”

5. The Gibeonites said, “Saul made plans against us and tried to destroy all our people who are left in the land of Israel.

6. So bring seven of his sons to us. Then we will kill them and hang them on stakes in the presence of the Lord at Gibeah, the hometown of Saul, the Lord’s chosen king.”The king said, “I will give them to you.”
