Now it came to pass afterH310 the deathH4194 of SaulH7586, when DavidH1732 was returnedH7725 from the slaughterH5221 of the AmalekitesH6002, and DavidH1732 had abodeH3427 twoH8147 daysH3117 in ZiklagH6860;
It came even to pass on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, that, behold, a manH376 cameH935 out of the campH4264 from SaulH7586 with his clothesH899 rentH7167, and earthH127 upon his headH7218: and so it was, when he cameH935 to DavidH1732, that he fellH5307 to the earthH776, and did obeisanceH7812.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, From whence comestH935 thou? And he saidH559 unto him, Out of the campH4264 of IsraelH3478 am I escapedH4422.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, HowH4100 went the matterH1697? I pray thee, tellH5046 me. And he answeredH559, That the peopleH5971 are fledH5127 from the battleH4421, and manyH7235 of the peopleH5971 also are fallenH5307 and deadH4191; and SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 are deadH4191 also. {How…: Heb. What was, etc}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto the young manH5288 that toldH5046 him, How knowestH3045 thou that SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 be deadH4191?
And the young manH5288 that toldH5046 him saidH559, As I happenedH7136 by chanceH7122 upon mountH2022 GilboaH1533, behold, SaulH7586 leanedH8172 upon his spearH2595; and, lo, the chariotsH7393 and horsemenH1167+H6571 followed hardH1692 after him.
And when he lookedH6437 behindH310 him, he sawH7200 me, and calledH7121 unto me. And I answeredH559, Here am I. {Here…: Heb. Behold me}
And he saidH559 unto me, Who art thou? And I answeredH559 him, I am an AmalekiteH6003.
He saidH559 unto me again, StandH5975, I pray thee, upon me, and slayH4191 me: for anguishH7661 is comeH270 upon me, because my lifeH5315 is yet whole in me. {anguish…: or, my coat of mail (or, my embroidered coat) hindereth me, that my, etc}
So I stoodH5975 upon him, and slewH4191 him, because I was sureH3045 that he could not liveH2421 afterH310 that he was fallenH5307: and I tookH3947 the crownH5145 that was upon his headH7218, and the braceletH685 that was on his armH2220, and have broughtH935 them hither unto my lordH113.
Then DavidH1732 took holdH2388 on his clothesH899, and rentH7167 them; and likewise all the menH582 that were with him:
And they mournedH5594, and weptH1058, and fastedH6684 until evenH6153, for SaulH7586, and for JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, and for the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068, and for the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; because they were fallenH5307 by the swordH2719.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto the young manH5288 that toldH5046 him, Whence art thou? And he answeredH559, I am the sonH1121 of a strangerH376+H1616, an AmalekiteH6003.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, How wast thou not afraidH3372 to stretch forthH7971 thine handH3027 to destroyH7843 the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899?
And DavidH1732 calledH7121 oneH259 of the young menH5288, and saidH559, Go nearH5066, and fallH6293 upon him. And he smoteH5221 him that he diedH4191.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto him, Thy bloodH1818 be upon thy headH7218; for thy mouthH6310 hath testifiedH6030 against thee, sayingH559, I have slainH4191 the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899.
And DavidH1732 lamentedH6969 with this lamentationH7015 over SaulH7586 and over JonathanH3083 his sonH1121:
(Also he badeH559 them teachH3925 the childrenH1121 of JudahH3063 the use of the bowH7198: behold, it is writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of JasherH3477.) {of Jasher: or, of the upright}
The beautyH6643 of IsraelH3478 is slainH2491 upon thy high placesH1116: how are the mightyH1368 fallenH5307!
TellH5046 it not in GathH1661, publishH1319 it not in the streetsH2351 of AskelonH831; lest the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430 rejoiceH8055, lest the daughtersH1323 of the uncircumcisedH6189 triumphH5937.
Ye mountainsH2022 of GilboaH1533, let there be no dewH2919, neither let there be rainH4306, upon you, nor fieldsH7704 of offeringsH8641: for there the shieldH4043 of the mightyH1368 is vilely cast awayH1602, the shieldH4043 of SaulH7586, as though he had not been anointedH4899 with oilH8081.
From the bloodH1818 of the slainH2491, from the fatH2459 of the mightyH1368, the bowH7198 of JonathanH3083 turnedH7734 not backH268, and the swordH2719 of SaulH7586 returnedH7725 not emptyH7387.
SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 were lovelyH157 and pleasantH5273 in their livesH2416, and in their deathH4194 they were not dividedH6504: they were swifterH7043 than eaglesH5404, they were strongerH1396 than lionsH738. {pleasant: or, sweet}
Ye daughtersH1323 of IsraelH3478, weep overH1058 SaulH7586, who clothedH3847 you in scarletH8144, with other delightsH5730, who putH5927 on ornamentsH5716 of goldH2091 upon your apparelH3830.
How are the mightyH1368 fallenH5307 in the midstH8432 of the battleH4421! O JonathanH3083, thou wast slainH2491 in thine high placesH1116.
I am distressedH6887 for thee, my brotherH251 JonathanH3083: veryH3966 pleasantH5276 hast thou been unto me: thy loveH160 to me was wonderfulH6381, passing the loveH160 of womenH802.
How are the mightyH1368 fallenH5307, and the weaponsH3627 of warH4421 perishedH6!

And it came to pass, when he had made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 unto SaulH7586, that the soulH5315 of JonathanH3083 was knitH7194 with the soulH5315 of DavidH1732, and JonathanH3083 lovedH157 him as his own soulH5315.
Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478: and the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, Saul'sH7586 sonsH1121.
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H582+H7198 hitH4672 him; and he was soreH3966 woundedH2342 of the archersH3384+H582+H7198. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters, men with bows} {hit…: Heb. found him}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrust me throughH1856 therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrust me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH5375+H3627 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. Therefore SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it. {abuse…: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise upon his swordH2719, and diedH4191 with him.
And there were threeH7969 sonsH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 there, JoabH3097, and AbishaiH52, and AsahelH6214: and AsahelH6214 was as lightH7031 of footH7272 as aH259 wildH7704 roeH6643. {of foot: Heb. of his feet} {as a wild…: Heb. as one of the roes that is in the field}
And BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, the sonH1121 of a valiantH2428 manH376+H381, of KabzeelH6909, who had done manyH7227 actsH6467, he slewH5221 twoH8147 lionlike menH739 of MoabH4124: he went downH3381 also and slewH5221 a lionH738 in the midstH8432 of a pitH953 in timeH3117 of snowH7950: {who…: Heb. great of acts} {lionlike…: Heb. lion of God}
And he saidH559 unto him, God forbidH2486; thou shalt not dieH4191: behold, my fatherH1 will doH6213+H6213 nothingH1697 either greatH1419 or smallH6996, but that he will shewH1540+H241 it me: and why should my fatherH1 hideH5641 this thingH1697 from me? it is not so. {shew…: Heb. uncover mine ear}
The LORDH3068 shall bringH5375 a nationH1471 against thee from farH7350, from the endH7097 of the earthH776, as swift as the eagleH5404 fliethH1675; a nationH1471 whose tongueH3956 thou shalt not understandH8085; {understand: Heb. hear}
And the menH582 of the cityH5892 saidH559 unto him on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 before the sunH2775 went downH935, What is sweeterH4966 than honeyH1706? and what is strongerH5794 than a lionH738? And he saidH559 unto them, IfH3884 ye had not plowedH2790 with my heiferH5697, ye had not found outH4672 my riddleH2420.
And of the GaditesH1425 there separatedH914 themselves unto DavidH1732 into the holdH4679 to the wildernessH4057 menH1368 of mightH2428, and menH582 of warH6635 fit for the battleH4421, that could handleH6186 shieldH6793 and bucklerH7420, whose facesH6440 were like the facesH6440 of lionsH738, and were as swiftH4116 as the roesH6643 upon the mountainsH2022; {of war: Heb. of the host} {as swift…: Heb. as the roes upon the mountains to make haste}
They are passed awayH2498 asH5973 the swiftH16 shipsH591: as the eagleH5404 that hastethH2907 to the preyH400. {swift…: or, ships of Ebeh: Heb. ships of desire}
