* And he said unto me , Who art thou ? And I answered him , I am an Amalekite . * He said unto me again , Stand , I pray thee , upon me , and slay me : for anguish is come upon me , because my life is yet whole in me . * So I stood upon him , and slew him , because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen : and I took the crown that was upon his head ro #sh #, and the bracelet #ets #adah # that was on his arm , and have brought them hither unto my lord . * Then David took hold on his clothes , and rent them ; and likewise all the men that were with him : * And they mourned , and wept , and fasted until even , for Saul Sha #uwl #, and for Jonathan his son , and for the people of the LORD , and for the house of Israel Yisra #el #; because they were fallen by the sword . * And David said unto the young man that told him , Whence art thou ? And he answered , I am the son of a stranger #H1616 , an Amalekite . * And David said unto him , How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the LORDS anointed ? * And David called one of the young men na #ar #, and said , Go near , and fall upon him . And he smote him that he died . * And David said unto him , Thy blood be upon thy head ro #sh #; for thy mouth hath testified against thee , saying , I have slain the LORDS anointed .
