yet you have not been as My servant David, who
kept My commandments and who followed Me
with all his heart, to do only what was right in My
eyes;
Psalm 51:1 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of
David when Nathan the prophet went to him,
after he had gone in to Bathsheba. Have mercy
upon me, O God, According to Your
lovingkindness; According to the multitude of
Your tender mercies, Blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And
cleanse me from my sin. 3 For I acknowledge my
transgressions, And my sin is always before me.
4 Against You, You only, have I sinned, And done
this evil in Your sight -- That You may be found
just when You speak, And blameless when You
judge. 5 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
6 Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know
wisdom. 7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be
clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me hear joy and gladness, That the bones
You have broken may rejoice. 9 Hide Your face
from my sins, And blot out all my iniquities. 10
Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a
steadfast spirit within me. 11 Do not cast me
away from Your presence, And do not take Your
Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me the joy of
Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous
Spirit. 13 Then I will teach transgressors Your
ways, And sinners shall be converted
Psalm 32:1 A Psalm of David. A Contemplation.
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered. 2 Blessed is the man to
whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, And in
whose spirit there is no deceit. 3 When I kept
silent, my bones grew old Through my groaning
all the day long. 4 For day and night Your hand
was heavy upon me; My vitality was turned into
the drought of summer. Selah 5 I acknowledged
my sin to You, And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, "I will confess my transgressions to the
LORD," And You forgave the iniquity of my sin.
Selah
6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray
to You In a time when You may be found; Surely
in a flood of great waters They shall not come
near him. 7 You are my hiding place; You shall
preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me
with songs of deliverance. Selah 8 I will instruct
you and teach you in the way you should go; I
will guide you with My eye. 9 Do not be like the
horse or like the mule, Which have no
understanding, Which must be harnessed with bit
and bridle, Else they will not come near you. 10
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; But he who
trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him. 11
Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
2 Samuel 1:1 Now it came to pass after the death of
Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of
the Amalekites, and David had stayed two days in
Ziklag, 2 on the third day, behold, it happened that a
man came from Saul's camp with his clothes torn and
dust on his head. So it was, when he came to David,
that he fell to the ground and prostrated himself. 3
And David said to him, "Where have you come from?"
So he said to him, "I have escaped from the camp of
Israel." 4 Then David said to him, "How did the
matter go? Please tell me." And he answered, "The
people have fled from the battle, many of the people
are fallen and dead, and Saul and Jonathan his son
are dead also."
5 So David said to the young man who told him, "How
do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are
dead?" 6 Then the young man who told him said, "As
I happened by chance to be on Mount Gilboa, there
was Saul, leaning on his spear; and indeed the
chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. 7
"Now when he looked behind him, he saw me and
called to me. And I answered, 'Here I am.' 8 "And he
said to me, 'Who are you?' So I answered him, 'I am
an Amalekite.' 9 "He said to me again, 'Please stand
over me and kill me, for anguish has come upon me,
but my life still remains in me.'
10 "So I stood over him and killed him, because I was
sure that he could not live after he had fallen. And I
took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet
that was on his arm, and have brought them here to
my lord." 11 Therefore David took hold of his own
clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who
were with him. 12 And they mourned and wept and
fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his
son, for the people of the LORD and for the house of
Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.
1 Samuel 31:3 The battle became fierce against
Saul. The archers hit him, and he was severely
wounded by the archers. 4 Then Saul said to his
armorbearer, "Draw your sword, and thrust me
through with it, lest these uncircumcised men
come and thrust me through and abuse me." But
his armorbearer would not, for he was greatly
afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword and fell on it.
5 And when his armorbearer saw that Saul was
dead, he also fell on his sword, and died with him.
Also 1Chron. 10:3-5
2 Samuel 4:10 "when someone told me, saying,
'Look, Saul is dead,' thinking to have brought
good news, I arrested him and had him executed
in Ziklag -- the one who thought I would give him
a reward for his news.
2 Samuel 1:13 Then David said to the young man
who told him, "Where are you from?" And he
answered, "I am the son of an alien, an
Amalekite." 14 So David said to him, "How was it
you were not afraid to put forth your hand to
destroy the LORD's anointed?" 15 Then David
called one of the young men and said, "Go near,
and execute him!" And he struck him so that he
died. 16 So David said to him, "Your blood is on
your own head, for your own mouth has testified
against you, saying, 'I have killed the LORD's
anointed.' "
19 "The beauty of Israel is slain on your high
places! How the mighty have fallen! 20 Tell it not
in Gath, Proclaim it not in the streets of Ashkelon
-- Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice,
Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.
21 "O mountains of Gilboa, Let there be no dew
nor rain upon you, Nor fields of offerings. For the
shield of the mighty is cast away there! The shield
of Saul, not anointed with oil. 22 From the blood
of the slain, From the fat of the mighty, The bow
of Jonathan did not turn back, And the sword of
Saul did not return empty
23 "Saul and Jonathan were beloved and pleasant
in their lives, And in their death they were not
divided; They were swifter than eagles, They
were stronger than lions. 24 "O daughters of
Israel, weep over Saul, Who clothed you in
scarlet, with luxury; Who put ornaments of gold
on your apparel. 25 "How the mighty have fallen
in the midst of the battle! Jonathan was slain in
your high places. 26 I am distressed for you, my
brother Jonathan; You have been very pleasant to
me; Your love to me was wonderful, Surpassing
the love of women. 27 "How the mighty have
fallen, And the weapons of war perished!"
