RIZPAH.

And he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they

hanged them in the hill before the Lord; and they fell all seven

together, and were put to death in the days of the harvest, in the

first days, in the beginning of barley-harvest.

And Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah, took sackcloth, and spread it for

her upon the rock, from the beginning of harvest until the water

dropped upon them out of heaven, and suffered neither the birds of the

air to rest upon them by day, nor the beasts of the field by night.
