4 And David said to him: 'What is the word that has happened? Reveal it to me.' And he said: 'The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people have fallen and died. Moreover, Saul and his son Jonathan have passed away.'
5 And David said to the youth who was reporting to him, 'How do you know that Saul and his son Jonathan have died?'
6 And the youth, who was reporting it to him, said: 'I arrived by chance on mount Gilboa. And Saul was lying upon his spear. Then the chariots and horsemen drew near to him.
7 And turning behind his back and seeing me, he called to me. And when I had responded, 'I am here,'
8 he said to me, 'Who are you?' And I said to him, 'I am an Amalekite.'
