2 Samuel 1:8-15
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 1

8Then he said to me, ‘Who are you?’ And I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’ 9And he said to me, ‘Please stand next to me and finish me off, for agony has seized me because my life still lingers in me.’ 10So I stood next to him and finished him off, because I knew that he could not live after he had fallen. And I took the crown which was on his head and the band which was on his arm, and I have brought them here to my lord.'
11Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them, and so also did all the men who were with him. 12And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and his son Jonathan, and for the people of the Lord and the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword. 13Then David said to the young man who informed him, 'Where are you from?' And he answered, 'I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite.' 14And David said to him, 'How is it you were not afraid to reach out with your hand to destroy the Lord’S anointed?' 15Then David called one of the young men and said, 'Come forward, put him to death.' So he struck him and he died.
King James Version

Chapter 1

8And he said unto me, Who art thou? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. 9He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me. 10So I stood upon 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.
11Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him: 12And 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.
13And David said unto the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite. 14And David said unto him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thine hand to destroy the Lord'S anointed? 15And David called one of the young men, and said, Go near, and fall upon him. And he smote him that he died.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 1

8He asked me, ‘Who are you?’ I told him: I’m an Amalekite. 9Then he begged me, ‘Stand over me and kill me, for I’m mortally wounded, but my life still lingers.’ 10So I stood over him and killed him because I knew that after he had fallen he couldn’t survive. I took the crown that was on his head and the armband that was on his arm, and I’ve brought them here to my lord."
11Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them, and all the men with him did the same. 12They mourned, wept, and fasted until the evening for those who died by the sword—for Saul, his son Jonathan, the Lord’s people, and the house of Israel.
13David inquired of the young man who had brought him the report, "Where are you from?" "I’m the son of a resident alien," he said. "I’m an Amalekite."
14David questioned him, "How is it that you were not afraid to lift your hand to destroy the Lord’s anointed?" 15Then David summoned one of his servants and said, "Come here and kill him!" The servant struck him, and he died.
New Living Translation

Chapter 1

8He responded, ‘Who are you?’ '‘I am an Amalekite,’ I told him.
9Then he begged me, ‘Come over here and put me out of my misery, for I am in terrible pain and want to die.’
10So I killed him,' the Amalekite told David, 'for I knew he couldn’t live. Then I took his crown and his armband, and I have brought them here to you, my lord.'
11David and his men tore their clothes in sorrow when they heard the news. 12They mourned and wept and fasted all day for Saul and his son Jonathan, and for the Lord’s army and the nation of Israel, because they had died by the sword that day.
13Then David said to the young man who had brought the news, 'Where are you from?' And he replied, 'I am a foreigner, an Amalekite, who lives in your land.'
14Why were you not afraid to kill the Lord’s anointed one?' David asked.
15Then David said to one of his men, 'Kill him!' So the man thrust his sword into the Amalekite and killed him.
English Standard Version

Chapter 1

8And he said to me, ‘Who are you?’ I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’ 9And he said to me, ‘Stand beside me and kill me, for anguish has seized me, and yet my life still lingers.’ 10So I stood beside him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. And I took the crown that was on his head and the armlet that was on his arm, and I have brought them here to my lord."
11Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who were with him. 12And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son and for the people of the Lord and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword. 13And David said to the young man who told him, "Where do you come from?" And he answered, "I am the son of a sojourner, an Amalekite." 14David said to him, "How is it you were not afraid to put out your hand to destroy the Lord 's anointed?" 15Then David called one of the young men and said, "Go, execute him." And he struck him down so that he died.
New International Version

Chapter 1

8"He asked me, ‘Who are you?’ " ‘An Amalekite,’ I answered.
9"Then he said to me, ‘Stand here by me and kill me! I’m in the throes of death, but I’m still alive.’
10"So I stood beside him and killed him, because I knew that after he had fallen he could not survive. And I took the crown that was on his head and the band on his arm and have brought them here to my lord."
11Then David and all the men with him took hold of their clothes and tore them. 12They mourned and wept and fasted till evening for Saul and his son Jonathan, and for the army of the Lord and for the nation of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13David said to the young man who brought him the report, "Where are you from?" "I am the son of a foreigner, an Amalekite," he answered.
14David asked him, "Why weren’t you afraid to lift your hand to destroy the Lord’s anointed?"
15Then David called one of his men and said, "Go, strike him down!" So he struck him down, and he died.
New King James Version

Chapter 1

8And he said to me, ‘Who are you?’ So I answered him, ‘I am an Amalekite.’ 9He said to me again, ‘Please stand over me and kill me, for anguish has come upon me, but my life still remains in me.’ 10So I stood over him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. And 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.”
11Therefore David took hold of his own clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who were with him. 12And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, for the people of the Lord and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
13Then David said to the young man who told him, “Where are you from?” And he answered, “I am the son of an alien, an Amalekite.”
14So David said to him, “How was it you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the Lord’s anointed?” 15Then David called one of the young men and said, “Go near, and execute him!” And he struck him so that he died.
