4 David lui dit: Que s’est-il passé? Dis-moi donc! Et il répondit: Le peuple s’est enfui du champ de bataille, et un grand nombre d’hommes sont tombés et ont péri; Saül même et Jonathan, son fils, sont morts.
5 David dit au jeune homme qui lui apportait ces nouvelles: Comment sais-tu que Saül et Jonathan, son fils, sont morts?
6 Et le jeune homme qui lui apportait ces nouvelles répondit: Je me trouvais sur la montagne de Guilboa; et voici, Saül s’appuyait sur sa lance, et voici, les chars et les cavaliers étaient près de l’atteindre.
7 S’étant retourné, il m’aperçut et m’appela. Je dis: Me voici!
