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."
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?"
15. And calling one of his servants, David said, "Draw near and rush against him" And he struck him, and he died.
