8 “And he said to me, ‘Who are you?’ So I answered him, ‘I am an Amalĕqite.’
9 “And he said to me, ‘Please stand over me and put me to death, for agony has seized me, but my life is still in me.’
10 “So I stood beside him and put him to death, for I knew he would not live after he had fallen. And I took the diadem that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my master.”
11 And Dawiḏ took hold of his own garments and tore them, and also all the men who were with him.
12 And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Sha’ul and for Yehonathan his son, and for the people of יהוה and for the house of Yisra’ĕl, because they had fallen by the sword.
13 Then Dawiḏ asked the young man who informed him, “Where are you from?” And he answered, “I am the son of a sojourner, an Amalĕqite.”
14 And Dawiḏ said to him, “How was it you were not afraid to stretch out your hand to destroy the anointed of יהוה?”
