2 Samuel 1:13-15

New International Reader's Version

¹³ David spoke to the young man who had brought him the report. He asked, “Where are you from?”

“I’m the son of an outsider, an Amalekite,” he answered.

¹⁴ David asked him, “Why weren’t you afraid to lift your hand to kill the Lord’s anointed king?”

¹⁵ Then David called for one of his men. He said, “Go! Strike him down!” So he struck the man down, and the man died.
