6 Then the young man who told him said, “As I happened by chance to be on aMount Gilboa, there was bSaul, leaning on his spear; and indeed the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.
7 Now when he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. And I answered, ‘Here I am.’
8 And he said to me, ‘Who are you?’ So I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
9 He said to me again, ‘Please stand over me and kill me, for1 anguish has come upon me, but my life still remains in me.’
10 So I stood over him and akilled him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. And I took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord.”
