New King James Version
2 Samuel 1:5-10
5So David said to the young man who told him, “How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?”
6Then the young man who told him said, “As I happened by chance to be on Mount Gilboa, there was Saul, leaning on his spear; and indeed the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
7Now when he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. And I answered, ‘Here I am.’
8And he said to me, ‘Who are you?’ So I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
9He said to me again, ‘Please stand over me and kill me, for anguish has come upon me, but my life still remains in me.’
10So I stood over him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. And I took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.”
