2 Samuel 1:1-3

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

1 Now it came to pass, after Saul was dead, that David returned from the slaughter of the Amalecites, and abode two days in Siceleg.

² And on the third day, there appeared a man who came out of Saul's camp, with his garments rent, and dust strewed on his head: and when he came to David, he fell upon his face, and adored.

³ And David said to him: From whence comest thou? And he said to him: I am fled out of the camp of Israel.
