← 2 Samuel 1:2	2 Samuel 1:3 (KJV)	2 Samuel 1:4 →
It came even to pass on the third day, that, behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his clothes rent, and earth upon his head: and [so] it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the earth, and did obeisance.	And David said unto him, From whence comest thou? And he said unto him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped.	And David said unto him, How went the matter? I pray thee, tell me. And he answered, That the people are fled from the battle, and many of the people also are fallen and dead; and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also.
