9. “Then Saul said to me, ‘Please come here and kill me. I am badly hurt and am almost dead already.’
10. “So I went over and killed him. He had been hurt so badly I knew he couldn’t live. Then I took the crown from his head and the bracelet from his arm, and I have brought them here to you, my master.”
11. Then David tore his clothes to show his sorrow, and all the men with him did also.
12. They were very sad and cried and fasted until evening. They cried for Saul and his son Jonathan and for all the people of the Lord and for all the Israelites who had died in the battle.
