[3]And DavidH1732 saidH559[H8799] unto him, From whence comestH935[H8799] thou? And he saidH559[H8799] unto him, Out of the campH4264 of IsraelH3478 am I escapedH4422.[H8738] |
| [4]And David said to him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, That the people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen, and are dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also. |
[4]And DavidH1732 saidH559[H8799] unto him, HowH4100 went the matterH1697? I pray thee, tellH5046[H8685] me.

| [6]And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. |
[6]And the young manH5288 that toldH5046[H8688] him saidH559[H8799], As I happenedH7136[H8738] by chanceH7122[H8736] upon mountH2022 GilboaH1533, behold, SaulH7586 leanedH8172[H8737] upon his spearH2595; and, lo, the chariotsH7393 and horsemenH1167[H6571] followed hardH1692 after himH8689. |
| [7]And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called to me. And I answered, Here am I. |
[7]And when he lookedH6437[H8799] behindH310 him, he sawH7200[H8799] me, and calledH7121[H8799] unto me. And I answeredH559, Here am IH8799. |
| [8]And he said to me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. |
[8]And he saidH559[H8799] unto me, Who art thou? And I answeredH559[H8799] him, I am an AmalekiteH6003. |
| [9]He said to me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me. |
[9]He saidH559[H8799] unto me again, StandH5975[H8798], I pray thee, upon me, and slayH4191[H8786] me: for anguishH7661 is comeH270[H8804] upon me, because my life is yet whole in meH5315. |
| [10]So I stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he had fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to my lord. |
[10]So I stoodH5975[H8799] upon him, and slewH4191[H8787] him, because I was sureH3045[H8804] that he could not liveH2421[H8799] afterH310 that he was fallenH5307[H8800]: and I tookH3947[H8799] the crownH5145 that was upon his headH7218, and the braceletH685 that was on his armH2220, and have broughtH935[H8686] them hither unto my lordH113. |
| [11]Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him: |
[11]Then DavidH1732 took holdH2388[H8686] on his clothesH899, and rentH7167[H8799] them; and likewise all the men that were with himH582: |
| [12]And they mourned and wept, and fasted until evening, for Saul and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they had fallen by the sword. |
[12]And they mournedH5594[H8799], and weptH1058[H8799], and fastedH6684[H8799] until evenH6153, for SaulH7586, and for JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, and for the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068, and for the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; because they were fallenH5307[H8804] by the swordH2719. |
| [13]And David said to the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite. |
[13]And DavidH1732 saidH559[H8799] unto the young manH5288 that toldH5046[H8688] him, Whence art thou? And he answeredH559[H8799], I am the sonH1121 of a strangerH376[H1616], an AmalekiteH6003. |
| [14]And David said to him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thy hand to destroy the LORD'S anointed? |
[14]And DavidH1732 saidH559[H8799] unto him, How wast thou not afraidH3372[H8804] to stretch forthH7971[H8800] thine handH3027 to destroyH7843[H8763] the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899? |

[15]And DavidH1732 calledH7121[H8799] oneH259 of the young menH5288, and saidH559[H8799], Go nearH5066[H8798], and fallH6293[H8798] upon him. And he smoteH5221[H8686] him that he diedH4191.[H8799] |
| [16]And David said to him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain the LORD'S anointed. |
[16]And DavidH1732 saidH559[H8799] unto him, Thy bloodH1818 be upon thy headH7218; for thy mouthH6310 hath testifiedH6030[H8804] against thee, sayingH559[H8800], I have slainH4191[H8790] the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899. |

[21]Ye mountainsH2022 of GilboaH1533, let there be no dewH2919, neither let there be rainH4306, upon you, nor fieldsH7704 of offeringsH8641: for there the shieldH4043 of the mightyH1368 is vilely cast awayH1602[H8738], the shieldH4043 of SaulH7586, as though he had not been anointedH4899 with oilH8081. |
