7When he looked behind him, he saw me, and called to me. I answered, Here am I.
8He said to me, Who are you? I answered him, I am an Amalekite.
9He said to me, Stand, I pray you, beside me, and kill me; for anguish has taken hold of me, because my life is yet whole in me.
10So I stood beside him, and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.
11Then David took hold on his clothes, and tore them; and likewise all the men who were with him:
12and they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Yahweh, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.
13David said to the young man who told him, Whence are you? He answered, I am the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite.
