David answers Rechab and Baanah his brother, and commands his young men

다윗이 레갑과 그 형제 바아나에게 대답하고 소년들을 명함

2 Samuel 4:9–12: David answers Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and says to them, “As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my soul out of all adversity, when someone told me, ‘Behold, Saul is dead,’ thinking that he brought good news, I seized him and killed him in Ziklag, which was the reward I gave him for his news. How much more, when wicked men have slain a righteous person in his own house on his bed, should I not now require his blood from your hand, and rid the earth of you?” David commands his young men, and they kill them, cut off their hands and their feet, and hang them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they take the head of Ishbosheth and bury it in Abner’s grave in Hebron. At 4:12 the Korean Revised Version names no one who commands the young men (소년들을 명하매), running on from David’s words.
