2 Samuel 1:11-15 Modern English Version (MEV)

11. Then David took hold of his clothes and tore them, as did all of the men who were with him.

12. They mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul, Jonathan his son, the people of the Lord, and the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.

13. Then David asked the young man who was reporting to him, “Where are you from?”He responded, “I am the son of one who sought refuge, an Amalekite.”

14. David said to him, “How is it that you did not fear raising your hand to destroy the anointed of the Lord?”

15. Then David called to one of the young men and said, “Step forward and execute him.” So he struck him and killed him.
