2 Samuel 1:8
World English Bible (WEB)
He said to me, ‘Who are you?’ I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
In context
6 The young man who told him said, “As I happened by chance on Mount Gilboa, behold, Saul was leaning on his spear; and behold, the chariots and the horsemen followed close behind him.
7 When he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. I answered, ‘Here I am.’
8 He said to me, ‘Who are you?’ I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
9 He said to me, ‘Please stand beside me, and kill me, for anguish has taken hold of me because my life lingers in me.’
10 So I stood beside him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. 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.”
