4 And David said to him: "What is the word that has happened? Reveal it to me." And he said: "The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people have fallen and died. Moreover, Saul and his son Jonathan have passed away."
5 And David said to the youth who was reporting to him, "How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan have died?"
6 And the youth, who was reporting it to him, said: "I arrived by chance on mount Gilboa. And Saul was lying upon his spear. Then the chariots and horsemen drew near to him.
7 And turning behind his back and seeing me, he called to me. And when I had responded, "I am here,"
8 he said to me, "Who are you?" And I said to him, "I am an Amalekite."
9 And he said to me: "Stand over me, and kill me. For anguish has taken hold of me, and still my whole life is in me."
10 And standing over him, I killed him. For I knew that he was not able to live after the fall. And I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet from his arm, and I have brought them here to you, my lord."
