New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
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. 16And David said to him, 'Your blood is on your head, because your own mouth has testified against you, saying, ‘I have finished off the Lord’S anointed.’?'King James Version
Chapter 1
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. 16And David said unto him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth hath testified against thee, saying, I have slain the LORD'S anointed.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
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.
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.
16For David had said to the Amalekite, "Your blood is on your own head because your own mouth testified against you by saying, 'I killed the Lord's anointed.' "
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
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.
15Then David said to one of his men, 'Kill him!' So the man thrust his sword into the Amalekite and killed him.
16You have condemned yourself,' David said, 'for you yourself confessed that you killed the Lord’s anointed one.'
