Ira the son of Ikkesh of Tekoa, Abiezer of Anathoth,
Azmaveth of Baharum, Eliahba the Shaalbonite,
let seven of his sons be given to us, so that we may hang them before the Lord at Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of the Lord.” And the king said, “I will give them.”
When the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul, they reported the matter in the ears of the people, and all the people wept aloud.
