WHO HATH REDEEMED MY SOUL OUT OF ALL ADVERSITY

1 SAMUEL 4:8-11

 

AND THEY BROUGHT 

THE HEAD OF ISHBOSHETH 

UNTO DAVID TO HEBRON, AND SAID KING, BEHOLD THE HEAD OF ISHBOSHETH 

THE SON OF SAUL THINE ENEMY, 

WHICH SOUGHT THY LIFE; 

AND THE LORD HATH AVENGED 

MY LORD THE KING THIS DAY OF SAUL, 

AND OF HIS SEED. 

AND DAVID ANSWERED RECHAB 

AND BAANAH HIS BROTHER, 

THE SONS OF RIMMON THE BEEROTHITE, 

AND SAID UNTO THEM, 

AS THE LORD LIVETH,

WHO HATH REDEEMED MY SOUL

OUT OF ALL ADVERSITY,

WHEN ONE TOLD ME, SAYING, 

BEHOLD, SAUL IS DEAD, 

THINKING TO HAVE BROUGHT 

GOOD TIDINGS, 

I TOOK HOLD OF HIM,

AND SLEW HIM IN ZIKLAG,

WHO THOUGHT THAT

I WOULD HAVE GIVEN

HIM A REWARD FOR HIS TIDINGS:

HOW MUCH MORE, 

WHEN WICKED MEN HAVE 

SLAIN A RIGHTEOUS PERSON 

IN HIS OWN HOUSE UPON 

HIS BED? 

SHALL I NOT THEREFORE

NOW REQUIRE HIS BLOOD

OF YOUR HAND,

AND TAKE YOU AWAY

FROM THE EARTH?
