2 Samuel 21:9

21:9 He turned them over to the Gibeonites, and they executed them on a hill before the Lord. The seven of them ¹  died ²  together; they were put to death during harvest time – during the first days of the beginning ³  of the barley harvest.

Deuteronomy 21:13

21:13 discard the clothing she was wearing when captured, ⁴  and stay ⁵  in your house, lamenting for her father and mother for a full month. After that you may have sexual relations ⁶  with her and become her husband and she your wife.

¹ tc The translation follows the Qere and several medieval Hebrew mss in reading שְׁבַעְתָּם (shÿva’tam, “the seven of them”) rather than MT שִׁבַעְתִּים (shiva’tim, “seventy”).

² tn Heb “fell.”

³ tc The translation follows the Qere and many medieval Hebrew mss in reading בִּתְחִלַּת (bithkhillat, “in the beginning”) rather than MT תְחִלַּת (tÿkhillat, “beginning of”).

⁴ tn Heb “she is to…remove the clothing of her captivity” (cf. NASB); NRSV “discard her captive’s garb.”

⁵ tn Heb “sit”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “remain.”

⁶ tn Heb “go unto,” a common Hebrew euphemism for sexual relations.
