The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
quoniam eum qui annuntiaverat mihi, et dixerat : Mortuus est Saul : qui putabat se prospera nuntiare, tenui, et occidi eum in Siceleg, cui oportebat mercedem dare pro nuntio.
Septuagint (Swete)
ὅτι ὁ ἀπαγγείλας μοι ὅτι τέθνηκεν Σαοὺλ καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν ὡς εὐαγγελιζόμενος ἐνώπιόν μου, καὶ κατέσχον αὐτὸν καὶ ἀπέκτεινα ἐν Σεκελάκ, ᾧ ἔδει με δοῦναι εὐαγγέλια.
Hebrew (WLC)
כִּ֣י הַמַּגִּיד֩ לִ֨י לֵאמֹ֜ר הִנֵּה מֵ֣ת שָׁא֗וּל וְהֽוּא הָיָ֤ה כִמְבַשֵּׂר֙ בְּעֵינָ֔יו וָאֹחֲזָ֣ה ב֔וֹ וָאֶהְרְגֵ֖הוּ בְּצִֽקְלָ֑ג אֲשֶׁ֥ר לְתִתִּי ל֖וֹ בְּשֹׂרָֽה
