2 Samuel 1:6-10 ▼

6 The young man who was telling him this said, |I just happened to be on Mount Gilboa and came across Saul leaning on his spear for support. The chariots and leaders of the horsemen were in hot pursuit of him.

7 When he turned around and saw me, he called out to me. I answered, 'Here I am!'

8 He asked me, 'Who are you?' I told him, 'I'm an Amalekite.'

9 He said to me, 'Stand over me and finish me off! I'm very dizzy, even though I'm still alive.'

10 So I stood over him and put him to death, since I knew that he couldn't live in such a condition. Then I took the crown which was on his head and the bracelet which was on his arm. I have brought them here to my lord.|
