2 Samuel 1:1-4
1Now it came to pass afterH310 the deathH4194 of SaulH7586, when DavidH1732 was returnedH7725 from the slaughterH5221 of the AmalekitesH6002, and DavidH1732 had abodeH3427 twoH8147 daysH3117 in ZiklagH6860;
2It came even to pass on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, that, behold, a manH376 cameH935 out of the campH4264 from SaulH7586 with his clothesH899 rentH7167, and earthH127 upon his headH7218: and so it was, when he cameH935 to DavidH1732, that he fellH5307 to the earthH776, and did obeisanceH7812.
3And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, From whence comestH935 thou? And he saidH559 unto him, Out of the campH4264 of IsraelH3478 am I escapedH4422.
4And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, HowH4100 went the matterH1697? I pray thee, tellH5046 me. And he answeredH559, That the peopleH5971 are fledH5127 from the battleH4421, and manyH7235 of the peopleH5971 also are fallenH5307 and deadH4191; and SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 are deadH4191 also.1
