2 Samuel4:12
12 And David commanded his young men , and they slew them, and cut off their hands and their feet , and hanged them up over the pool in Hebron : but they took the head of Ish-bosheth, and buried it in the sepulchre of Abner in Hebron.
Those of his Guard, who used to Execute Justice upon Malefactors at the Kings Command.
Which had been most Instrumental in this Villany; their Hands to Cut off his Head, and their Feet to carry them away, and his Head with them.
As Monuments of their Villany, and of David's Abhorrency of it.
