2 Samuel 1:10-14 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

10. And standing over him, I killed him. For I knew that he was not able to live after the fall. And I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet from his arm, and I have brought them here to you, my lord."

11. Then David, taking hold of his garments, tore them, with all the men who were with him.

12. And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until evening, over Saul and over his son Jonathan, and over the people of the Lord and over the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.

13. And David said to the youth who had reported it to him, "Where are you from?" And he responded, "I am the son of a man who is a new arrival from the Amalekites."

14. And David said to him, "Why were you not afraid to put forth your hand, so that you would kill the Christ of the Lord?"
