3 And David will say to him, From whence wilt thou come? and he will say to him, From the camp of Israel I escaped. 4 And David will say to him, What was the word? announce now to me. And he will say that the people fled from the battle, and also many fell from the people, and they will die and also Saul and Jonathan his son died. 5 And David will say to the youth announcing to him, How knewest thou that Saul died, and Jonathan his son? 6 And the youth announcing to him, will say, And happening, I happened to be upon mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul leaning upon his spear; and behold, the chariots and lords, the horsemen, pursued him. 7 And he will look behind him and see me, and he will call to me; and I say, Behold me. 8 And he will say to me, Who thou? and I shall say to him, I an Amalekite. 9 And he will say to me, Stand now, upon me, and kill me, for perplexity seized me because my soul is yet all in me. 10 And I shall stand upon him and kill him, for I knew that he will not live after his falling: and I shall take the diadem which upon his head, and the armband which upon his arm, and I shall bring them hither to my lord. 2 Samuel 1:3-10, Smith's Literal Translation.
