2 Samuel 4:8-10
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
8 They brought the head of Ishbaal[a] to David at Hebron and said to the king, “Here is the head of Ishbaal,[b] son of Saul, your enemy, who sought your life; the Lord has avenged my lord the king this day on Saul and on his offspring.”
9 David answered Rechab and his brother Baanah, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, “As the Lord lives, who has redeemed my life out of every adversity, 10 when the one who told me, ‘See, Saul is dead,’ thought he was bringing good news, I seized him and killed him at Ziklag—this was the reward I gave him for his news.
