4. And David said to him: "What is the word that has happened? Reveal it to me." And he said: "The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people have fallen and died. Moreover, Saul and his son Jonathan have passed away."
5. And David said to the youth who was reporting to him, "How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan have died?"
6. And the youth, who was reporting it to him, said: "I arrived by chance on mount Gilboa. And Saul was lying upon his spear. Then the chariots and horsemen drew near to him.
7. And turning behind his back and seeing me, he called to me. And when I had responded, "I am here,"
8. he said to me, "Who are you?" And I said to him, "I am an Amalekite."
9. And he said to me: "Stand over me, and kill me. For anguish has taken hold of me, and still my whole life is in me."
