1: And it came to passH1961 afterH0310 the deathH4191 of Saul,H7586 then DavidH1732 returnedH7725 from the slaughterH5221 ofH0853 the Amalekites,H6002 and stayedH3427 DavidH1732 in Ziklag-H6860 daysH3117 two.H8147

2: And it came to passH1961 on the day,H3117 thirdH7992 that behold,H2009 a manH0376 cameH0935 fromH4480 campH4264 ofH5973 SaulH7586 and with his clothesH0899 torn,H7167 and dustH0127 onH5921 his head.H7218 So it was,H1961 when he cameH0935 toH0413 David,H1732 that he fellH5307 to the ground,H0776 and prostrated himself.H7812

3: And saidH0559 DavidH1732 from whereH0335 heH2088 have you comeH0935 so he saidH0559 to himH0413 from the campH4264 of IsraelH3478 I have escaped.H4422

4: And saidH0559 to himH0413 DavidH1732 whatH4100 isH1961 the report?H1697 tellH5046 please,H4994 and he answered,H0559 thatH0834 have fledH5127 the peopleH5971 fromH4480 the battle,H4421 andH1571 manyH7235 are fallenH5307 ofH4480 the peopleH5971 and dead-H4191 and also.H1571 And SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his sonH1121 are dead.H4191

5: So saidH0559 DavidH1732 toH0413 the young manH5288 who toldH5046 howH0349 do you knowH3045 thatH3588 are dead?H4191 SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 his son.H1121

6: And said,H0559 the young manH5288 who toldH5046 by chanceH7122 as I happened [to be]H7136 on MountH2022 Gilboa,H1533 and there was,H2009 SaulH7586 leaningH8172 onH5921 his spear-H2595 and indeed,H2009 the chariotsH7393 andH1167 horsemenH6571 followed hard after him.H1692

7: And when he lookedH6437 behind himH0310 and he saw meH7200 and calledH7121 to meH0413 and I answered,H0559 Here I am.H2005

8: And he saidH0559 who [are]H4310 you?H0859 so I answeredH0559 him,H0413 an AmalekiteH6003 I [am].H0595

9: And again He saidH0559 to meH0413 stand,H5975 please,H4994 over meH5921 and kill meH4191 forH3588 has come upon meH0270 anguishH7661 butH3588 allH3605 stillH5750 my life [remains]H5315

10: So I stoodH5975 over himH5921 and killed himH4191 becauseH3588 I was sureH3045 thatH3588 notH3808 he could liveH2421 afterH0310 he had fallen.H5307 And I tookH3947 the crownH5145 that [was]H0834 onH5921 his head,H7218 and the braceletH0685 that [was]H0834 onH5921 his arm,H2220 and have brought themH0935 toH0413 my lordH0113 here.H2008

11: And [Therefore] took holdH2388 DavidH1732 of his own clothes,H0899 and tore themH7167 and [so did]H1571 allH3605 the menH0376 who [were]H0834 with him.H0854

12: And they mourned,H5594 and wept,H1058 and fastedH6684 untilH5704 evening,H6153 forH5921 Saul,H7586 forH5921 JonathanH3083 his son,H1121 forH5921 the peopleH5971 of YahwehH3069 forH5921 the houseH1004 of Israel-H3478 becauseH3588 they had fallenH5307 by the sword.H2719

13: And saidH0559 DavidH1732 toH0413 the young manH5288 who toldH5046 from whereH0335 heH2088 [are] you?H0859 and he answered,H0559 the sonH1121 ofH0376 a sojourner,H1616 an AmalekiteH6003 I [am].H0595

14: So saidH0559 to himH0413 DavidH1732 how was itH0349 notH3808 you were afraidH3372 to put forthH7971 your handH3027 to destroyH7843 -H0853 anointedH4899 of Yahweh?H3068

15: and calledH7121 DavidH1732 oneH0259 of the young men,H5288 and said,H0559 go near,H5066 [and] executeH6293 and he struck himH5221 so that he died.H4191

16: So saidH0559 to himH0413 DavidH1732 Your blood [is]H1818 onH5921 your own head-H7218 forH3588 your own mouthH6310 has testifiedH6030 saying,H0559 IH0595 have killedH4191 -H0853 anointedH4899 of Yahweh.H3068

17: And lamentedH6969 DavidH1732 withH0854 lamentationH7015 thisH2063 overH5921 SaulH7586 and overH5921 JonathanH3083 his son,H1121

18: and he told [them]H0559 to teachH3925 the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 [the Song of] the Bow-H7198 indeed,H2009 [it is] writtenH3789 inH5921 the BookH5612 of Jasher.H3477

19: The beautyH6643 of IsraelH3478 onH5921 your high places-H1116 is slainH2491 howH0349 have fallen!H5307 the mighty.H1368

20: NotH0408 Tell [it]H5046 in Gath,H1661 notH0408 Proclaim [it]H1319 in the streetsH2351 of Ashkelon-H0831 lestH6435 rejoice,H8055 the daughtersH1323 of the PhilistinesH6430 lestH6435 triumphH5937 the daughtersH1323 of the uncircumcised.H6189

21: MountainsH2022 of Gilboa,H1533 noH0408 [Let there be] dew,H2919 norH0408 rain,H4306 upon youH5921 nor fieldsH7704 of offerings-H8641 forH3588 thereH8033 is cast away,H1602 the shieldH4043 of the mightyH1368 the shieldH4043 of Saul,H7586 notH1097 anointedH4899 with oil.H8081

22: From the bloodH1818 of the slain,H2491 from the fatH2459 of the mighty,H1368 the bowH7198 of JonathanH3083 notH3808 turnH7734 did back,H0268 and the swordH2719 of SaulH7586 notH3808 did returnH7725 empty.H7387

23: SaulH7586 and JonathanH3083 [were] belovedH0157 and pleasantH5273 in their lives,H2416 and in their deathH4194 notH3808 they were divided-H6504 than eagles,H5404 they were swifterH7043 than lionsH0738 they were stronger.H1396

24: DaughtersH1323 of Israel,H3478 overH0413 Saul,H7586 weepH1058 who clothed you inH3847 scarlet,H8144 withH5973 luxury,H5730 who putH5927 ornamentsH5716 of goldH2091 onH5921 your apparel.H3830

25: HowH0349 have fallenH5307 the mightyH1368 in the midstH8432 of the battle!H4421 Jonathan,H3083 inH5921 your high placesH1116 [was] slain.H2491

26: Am distressedH6887 for youH5921 my brotherH0251 Jonathan-H3083 You have been pleasantH5276 veryH3966 was wonderful,H6381 Your loveH0160 Surpassing the loveH0160 of women.H0802

27: HowH0349 have fallen,H5307 the mightyH1368 and perished!H0006 the weaponsH3627 of war.H4421
