2 Samuel 1:1-4

After the death of Saul, David returned from attacking the Amalekites. He stayed in Ziklag for two days.

Then on the third day a man arrived from Saul's camp. His clothes were torn and he had dust on his head. When he approached David, he bowed before him, and fell to the ground in respect.

“Where have you come from?” David asked him. “I got away from the Israelite camp,” he replied.

“Tell me what happened,” David asked. “The army ran away from the battle,” the man replied. “Many of them died, and Saul and his son Jonathan also died.”
