13 David asked the young man who had brought him the news, |Where are you from?| And the young man answered, |I'm an Amalekite, the son of a foreign resident.| 14 David asked, |Why weren't you afraid to take it upon yourself to destroy the LORD's anointed king?| 15 Then David called one of [his] young men and told him, |Come here and attack him.| David's young man executed him 16 while David said, |You are responsible for spilling your own blood. You testified against yourself when you said, 'I killed the LORD's anointed king.'| 2 Samuel 1:13-16, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
