2 Samuel 1:8-16

MSTC(i) 8 And he said unto me, 'What art thou?' And I said unto him, 'I am an Amalekite.' 9 And he said unto me, 'Come on me and slay me: For anguish is come upon me and my life is yet all in me.' 10 And I went on him and slew him: for I was sure that he could not live, after that he was fallen. And I took the crown that was upon his head and the bracelet that was on his arm and have brought them unto my lord hither." 11 Then David took his clothes and rent them, and so did all the men that were with him. 12 And they mourned, wept and fasted until evening — for Saul, and Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel, because they were overthrown with the sword. 13 Then said David unto the young man that brought him tidings, "Whence art thou?" And he said, "I am the son of an alien, an Amalekite." 14 And David said unto him, "How is it that thou wast not afraid to lay thine hand on the LORD's anointed, to destroy him?" 15 And David called one of his young men, and said, "Go and run upon him." And he smote him that he died. 16 Then said David unto him, "Thy blood upon thine own head; for thine own mouth hath testified against thee, saying, 'I have slain the LORD's anointed.'"
