    2It came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and so it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.

    3And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.

    4And David said unto him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, That the people are fled from the battle, and many of the people also are fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.

    5And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son be dead?

    6And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul leaned upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.

    7And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called unto me. And I answered, Here am I.

    8And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite.

    9He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me.

    10So I stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord.

    11Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:

    12And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the Lord, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword.

    13¶ And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite.

    14And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the Lord’s anointed?

    15And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him that he died.

    16And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain the Lord’s anointed.

    23Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

    24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;

    25When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.

    26Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.
