He brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan, and they gathered the bones of the men who had been hanged.
In context
11David was told what Rizpah daughter of Aiah, Saul’s concubine, had done. 12So David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan from the citizens of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the public square of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hung them on the day they struck down Saul at Gilboa. 13He brought up from there the bones of Saul and the bones of his son Jonathan, and they gathered the bones of the men who had been hanged. 14They buried the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan in the territory of Benjamin, at Zela, in the tomb of Kish, Saul’s father, and did everything the king had commanded. After that, God was moved by prayer for the land. 15There was war again between the Philistines and Israel, and David went down with his servants to fight against the Philistines, and David grew weary.
