 It was by chance that I found myself on Mount Geboa and saw Saul leaning on his spear, with chariots and horsemen closing in on him. He turned around and, seeing me, called to me. When I said, Here I am, he asked me, Who are you? And I replied, I am an Amalekite. Then he said to me, Stand up to me, please, and finish me off, for I am in great suffering, yet fully alive.
