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.'
9 And he said to me: 'Stand over me, and kill me. For anguish has taken hold of me, and still my whole life is in me.'
10 And standing over him, I killed him. For I knew that he was not able to live after the fall. And I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet from his arm, and I have brought them here to you, my lord.'
