Old Testament2 SamuelDavid Has the Amalekite Put to Death · 1:11–161:11 Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him:1:12 And 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.1:13 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.1:14 And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the LORD’s anointed?1:15 And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him that he died.1:16 And 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.
