5. David asked him, “How do you know Saul and his son Jonathan are dead?”

6. The young man answered, “I happened to be on Mount Gilboa. There I saw Saul leaning on his spear. The Philistine chariots and the men riding in them were coming closer to Saul.

7. When he looked back and saw me, he called to me. I answered him, ‘Here I am!’

8. “Then Saul asked me, ‘Who are you?’“I told him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’
