And on the third day, behold, (A)a man came from [a]Saul’s camp (B)with his clothes torn and [b]dust on his head. And it happened when he came to David, (C)he fell to the ground and prostrated himself. Then David said to him, “From where do you come?” And he said to him, “I have escaped from the camp of Israel.” David said to him, “(D)How did things go? Please tell me.” And he said, “The people have fled from the battle, and many of the people also have fallen and are dead; and Saul and his son Jonathan are also dead.”
