2 Samuel 1:1-16

1Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν Σαουλ καὶ Δαυιδ ἀνέστρεψεν τύπτων τὸν Αμαληκ, καὶ ἐκάθισεν Δαυιδ ἐν Σεκελακ ἡμέρας δύο.

2καὶ ἐγενήθη τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ τρίτῃ καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνὴρ ἦλθεν ἐκ τῆς παρεμβολῆς ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ Σαουλ, καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ διερρωγότα, καὶ γῆ ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ εἰσελθεῖν αὐτὸν πρὸς Δαυιδ καὶ ἔπεσεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ προσεκύνησεν αὐτῷ.

3καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαυιδ Πόθεν σὺ παραγίνῃ ; καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν Ἐκ τῆς παρεμβολῆς Ισραηλ ἐγὼ διασέσῳσμαι.

4καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαυιδ Τίς ὁ λόγος οὗτος ; ἀπάγγειλόν μοι. καὶ εἶπεν ὅτι Ἔφυγεν ὁ λαὸς ἐκ τοῦ πολέμου, καὶ πεπτώκασι πολλοὶ ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ ἀπέθανον· καὶ ἀπέθανεν καὶ Σαουλ, καὶ Ιωναθαν ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ἀπέθανεν.

5καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ τῷ παιδαρίῳ τῷ ἀπαγγέλλοντι αὐτῷ Πῶς οἶδας ὅτι τέθνηκεν Σαουλ καὶ Ιωναθαν ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ ;

6καὶ εἶπεν τὸ παιδάριον τὸ ἀπαγγέλλον αὐτῷ Περιπτώματι περιέπεσον ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῷ Γελβουε, καὶ ἰδοὺ Σαουλ ἐπεστήρικτο ἐπὶ τὸ δόρυ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἰδοὺ τὰ ἅρματα καὶ οἱ ἱππάρχαι συνῆψαν αὐτῷ.

7καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὰ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶδέν με καὶ ἐκάλεσέν με, καὶ εἶπα Ἰδοὺ ἐγώ.

8καὶ εἶπέν μοι Τίς εἶ σύ ; καὶ εἶπα Αμαληκίτης ἐγώ εἰμι.

9καὶ εἶπεν πρός με Στῆθι δὴ ἐπάνω μου καὶ θανάτωσόν με, ὅτι κατέσχεν με σκότος δεινόν, ὅτι πᾶσα ἡ ψυχή μου ἐν ἐμοί.

10καὶ ἐπέστην ἐπ αὐτὸν καὶ ἐθανάτωσα αὐτόν, ὅτι ᾔδειν ὅτι οὐ ζήσεται μετὰ τὸ πεσεῖν αὐτόν· καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ βασίλειον τὸ ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὸν χλιδῶνα τὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ βραχίονος αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐνήνοχα αὐτὰ τῷ κυρίῳ μου ὧδε.

11καὶ ἐκράτησεν Δαυιδ τῶν ἱματίων αὐτοῦ καὶ διέρρηξεν αὐτά, καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ μετ αὐτοῦ διέρρηξαν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν.

12καὶ ἐκόψαντο καὶ ἔκλαυσαν καὶ ἐνήστευσαν ἕως δείλης ἐπὶ Σαουλ καὶ ἐπὶ Ιωναθαν τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν Ιουδα καὶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ισραηλ, ὅτι ἐπλήγησαν ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ.

13καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ τῷ παιδαρίῳ τῷ ἀπαγγέλλοντι αὐτῷ Πόθεν εἶ σύ ; καὶ εἶπεν Υἱὸς ἀνδρὸς παροίκου Αμαληκίτου ἐγώ εἰμι.

14καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Δαυιδ Πῶς οὐκ ἐφοβήθης ἐπενεγκεῖν χεῖρά σου διαφθεῖραι τὸν χριστὸν κυρίου ;

15καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Δαυιδ ἓν τῶν παιδαρίων αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν Προσελθὼν ἀπάντησον αὐτῷ· καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἀπέθανεν.

16καὶ εἶπεν Δαυιδ πρὸς αὐτόν Τὸ αἷμά σου ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλήν σου, ὅτι τὸ στόμα σου ἀπεκρίθη κατὰ σοῦ λέγων ὅτι Ἐγὼ ἐθανάτωσα τὸν χριστὸν κυρίου.
