2 SAMUEL 21:3 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the Lord?”
And David said to the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? And how shall I make atonement, that you may bless the LORD's inheritance? — David asks the Gibeonites what restitution they require. His frame is covenantal: atonement is necessary to restore blessing to the LORD's inheritance (the people of Israel). His approach acknowledges both Saul's guilt and his own responsibility as king to remedy it.
