| 1 | And it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had abode two days in Ziklag; | 1Sa 30:17-26 |
| 2 | it came 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. | Gn 22:4 Es 4:16 Es 5:1 Hos 6:2 Mt 12:40 Mt 16:21 |
| 3 | And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped. | 2Ki 5:25 |
| 4 | And David said unto him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, 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. | 1Sa 4:16 |
| 5 | And David said unto the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead? | Pr 14:15 Pr 25:2 |
| 6 | And the young man that told him said, As I happened by chance upon mount Gilboa, behold, Saul was leaning upon his spear; and, lo, the chariots and the horsemen followed hard after him. | Ru 2:3 1Sa 6:9 Lk 10:31 |
| 7 | And when he looked behind him, he saw me, and called unto me. And I answered, Here am I. | 2Sa 9:6 Jg 9:54 1Sa 22:12 Isa 6:8 Isa 65:1 |
| 8 | And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. | Gn 14:7 Ex 17:8-16 Nm 24:20 Dt 25:17-19 1Sa 15:3 1Sa 27:8 1Sa 30:1 1Sa 30:13 1Sa 30:17 |
| 9 | And he said unto me, Stand, I pray thee, beside me, and slay me; for anguish hath taken hold of me, because my life is yet whole in me. |
| 10 | So I stood beside 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. | Jg 1:7 Jg 9:54 1Sa 22:18 1Sa 31:4 1Sa 31:5 Mt 7:2 |
| 11 | Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him: | 2Sa 3:31 2Sa 13:31 Gn 37:29 Gn 37:34 Ac 14:14 |
| 12 | and they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of Jehovah, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. | Ps 35:13 Ps 35:14 Pr 24:17 Jer 9:1 Am 6:6 Mt 5:44 2Co 11:29 1Pe 3:8 |
| 13 | And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite. |
| 14 | And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to put forth thy hand to destroy Jehovah`s anointed? | Nm 12:8 1Sa 31:4 2Pe 2:10 |
| 15 | And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him, so that he died. | 2Sa 4:10-12 Jg 8:20 1Sa 22:17 1Sa 22:18 1Ki 2:25 1Ki 2:34 1Ki 2:46 Jb 5:12 Pr 11:18 |
| 16 | And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah`s anointed. | Gn 9:5 Gn 9:6 Lv 20:9 Lv 20:11-13 Lv 20:16-13 Lv 20:27-13 Dt 19:10 Jsh 2:19 Jg 9:24 1Sa 26:9 1Ki 2:32 1Ki 2:33 1Ki 2:37 Ezk 18:13 Ezk 33:5 Mt 27:25 Ac 20:26 |
| 17 | And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son | 2Sa 1:19 Gn 50:11 2Ch 35:25 Jer 9:17-21 |
| 18 | (and he bade them teach the children of Judah [the song of] the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jashar): | Gn 49:8 Dt 4:10 |
| 19 | Thy glory, O Israel, is slain upon thy high places! How are the mighty fallen! | 2Sa 1:23 Dt 4:7 Dt 4:8 1Sa 31:8 Isa 4:2 Isa 53:2 Lam 2:1 Zc 11:7 Zc 11:10 |
| 20 | Tell it not in Gath, Publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon; Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph. | Dt 32:26 Dt 32:27 Jg 14:19 Jg 16:23 Jg 16:24 1Sa 31:9 Mic 1:10 |
| 21 | Ye mountains of Gilboa, Let there be no dew nor rain upon you, neither fields of offerings: For there the shield of the mighty was vilely cast away, The shield of Saul, not anointed with oil. | 1Sa 31:1 1Ch 10:1 1Ch 10:8 |
| 22 | From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan turned not back, And the sword of Saul returned not empty. | 1Sa 14:6-14 1Sa 18:4 Isa 34:6 Isa 34:7 |
| 23 | Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they were not divided: They were swifter than eagles, They were stronger than lions. | 1Sa 18:1 1Sa 20:2 |
| 24 | Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, Who clothed you in scarlet delicately, Who put ornaments of gold upon your apparel. | Jg 5:30 Ps 68:12 Pr 31:21 Isa 3:16-26 Jer 2:32 1Ti 2:9 1Ti 2:10 1Pe 3:3-5 |
| 25 | How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan is slain upon thy high places. | 2Sa 1:19 2Sa 1:27 Lam 5:16 |
| 26 | I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: Very pleasant hast thou been unto me: Thy love to me was wonderful, Passing the love of women. | 1Sa 18:1-4 1Sa 19:2 1Sa 20:17 1Sa 20:41 1Sa 23:16 |
| 27 | How are the mighty fallen, And the weapons of war perished! | 2Sa 1:19 2Sa 1:25 |
