2 Samuel 1:5-10

5And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto the youngH5288 manH5288 that toldH5046 him, HowH349 knowest thou that SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 are deadH4191? 6And the youngH5288 manH5288 that toldH5046 him saidH559, As I happenedH7122 by chance upon mount GilboaH1533, behold, SaulH7586 was leaningH8172 upon his spearH2595; and, lo, the chariotsH7393 and the horsemenH6571 followed hard after him. 7And when he lookedH7200 behind him, he sawH7200 me, and calledH7121 unto me. And I answered, HereH2005 am I. 8And he saidH559 unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an AmalekiteH6003. 9And he saidH559 unto me, StandH5975, I pray thee, beside me, and slay me; for anguish hath takenH270 holdH270 of me, because my lifeH5315 is yetH5750 whole in me. 10So I stoodH5975 beside him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not liveH2421 after that he was fallenH5307: and I tookH3947 the crownH5145 that was upon his headH7218, and the bracelet that was on his armH2220, and have broughtH935 them hither unto my lordH113.
