2 Samuel 1:5-10
5 Then David asked the young man who was reporting to him, ‘How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan died?’ 6 The young man reporting to him said, ‘I happened to be on Mount Gilboa; and there was Saul leaning on his spear, while the chariots and the horsemen drew close to him. 7 When he looked behind him, he saw me, and called to me. I answered, “Here, sir.” 8 And he said to me, “Who are you?” I answered him, “I am an Amalekite.” 9 He said to me, “Come, stand over me and kill me; for convulsions have seized me, and yet my life still lingers.” 10 So I stood over him, and killed him, for I knew that he could not live after he had fallen. I took the crown that was on his head and the armlet that was on his arm, and I have brought them here to my lord.’
