And
David said unto the young
man that
told him, Whence art thou? And he
answered, I am the
son of a
stranger*, an
Amalekite.

And

afraid to stretch

destroy the

And
David called one of the young
men, 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; for thy
mouth hath
testified against thee,
saying, I have
slain the
LORD'S anointed.

And
David lamented with this
lamentation over
Saul and over
Jonathan his
son:

bade them

bow: behold, it is
written in the

The

Tell it not in
Gath, publish it not in the
streets of

daughters of the
Philistines rejoice, lest the
daughters of the
uncircumcised triumph.

Ye
mountains of
Gilboa, let there be no
dew, neither let there be
rain, upon you, nor
fields of
offerings: for there the
shield of the
mighty is vilely cast
away, the
shield of
Saul, as though he had not been
anointed with
oil.

From the
blood of the
slain, from the
fat of the
mighty, the
bow of
Jonathan turned not
back, and the
sword of
Saul returned not
empty.

Saul and
Jonathan were
lovely and
pleasant in their
lives, and in their
death they were not
divided: they were
swifter than
eagles, they were
stronger than
lions.
