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.
