2 Samuel 1:8-10
1599 Geneva Bible
8 And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an [a]Amalekite.
9 Then said he unto me, I pray thee,[b]come upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my [c]life is yet whole in me.
10 So [d]I came upon him, and slew him, and because I was sure that he could not live, after that he had fallen, I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and brought them hither unto my lord.
