2 Samuel 1:11-16

11Then DavidH1732 tookH2388 holdH2388 on his clothesH899, and rent them; and likewise all the menH376 that were with him: 12and they mournedH5594, and weptH1058, and fastedH6684 until even, for SaulH7586, and for JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, and for the peopleH5971 of Jehovah, and for the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; because they were fallenH5307 by the swordH2719. 13And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto the youngH5288 manH376 that toldH5046 him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the sonH1121 of a sojournerH1616, an AmalekiteH6003. 14And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, HowH349 wast thou not afraidH3372 to put forthH7971 thy handH3027 to destroyH7843 Jehovah’s anointedH4899? 15And DavidH1732 calledH7121 oneH259 of the youngH5288 menH5288, and saidH559, Go near, and fallH6293 upon him. And he smote him, so that he diedH4191. 16And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, Thy bloodH1818 be upon thy headH7218; for thy mouthH6310 hath testified against thee, sayingH559, I have slain Jehovah’s anointedH4899.
