2 Samuel 1:5-10

5Then DavidH1732 saidH559 to the youngH5288 manH5288 who toldH5046 him, “HowH349 do you knowH3045 that SaulH7586 and his sonH1121 JonathanH3083 are deadH4191?” 6The youngH5288 manH5288 who toldH5046 him saidH559, “ByH7122 chanceH7122 I happenedH7136 toH7136 beH7136 on 1MountH2022 GilboaH1533, and beholdH2009, 2SaulH7586 was leaningH8172 on his spearH2595. And beholdH2009, the chariotsH7393 and the horsemenH6571 had overtakenH1692 him. 7When he lookedH6437 behindH310 himself, he sawH7200 me, and calledH7121 to me. And I saidH559, ‘HereH2009 I am.’ 8Then he saidH559 to me, ‘WhoH4310 are you?’ And I 3answeredH559 him, ‘4I am an AmalekiteH6003.’ 9And he saidH559 to me, ‘PleaseH4994 standH5975 nextH5921 to me and finishH4191 me offH4191, for 5agonyH7661 has seizedH270 me becauseH3588 my 6lifeH5315 stillH5750 lingers in me.’ 10So I stoodH5975 nextH5921 to him 7and finishedH4191 him offH4191, becauseH3588 I knewH3045 that he could not liveH2421 afterH310 he had fallenH5307. And 8I tookH3947 the crownH5145 whichH834 was on his headH7218 and the bandH685 whichH834 was on his armH2220, and I have broughtH935 them hereH2008 to my lordH113.”
