The death of Saul
1 Samuel 31:1-13
1The Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa. 2The Philistines kept close after Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchishua, the sons of Saul. 3The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers, men with the bow, found him, and he trembled greatly because of the archers. 4Saul said to the one who carried his weapons, “Draw your sword and run me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and run me through and abuse me.” But the one who carried his weapons was not willing, for he was very afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it. 5When the one who carried his weapons saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died with him. 6So Saul died, and his three sons, and the one who carried his weapons, and also all his men, on that day together. 7When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley and who were on the other side of the Jordan saw that the men of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them. 8The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. 9They cut off his head and stripped off his weapons, and sent throughout the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to the house of their idols and to the people. 10They put his weapons in the house of the Astartes, and his body they fastened to the wall of Beth-shan. 11When the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard about him what the Philistines had done to Saul, 12all the valiant men arose and went all night and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan; they came to Jabesh and burned them there. 13They took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
1And the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa. 2And the Philistines kept close after Saul and after his sons, and the Philistines struck Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul. 3And the battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers, men with the bow, found him, and he trembled because of the archers. 4And Saul said to the one who carried his weapons, “Draw your sword and run me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me.” But the one who carried his weapons was not willing, for he was very afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it. 5And when the one who carried his weapons saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on the sword and died. 6So Saul died, and his three sons; and all his house died together. 7And all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, and they abandoned their cities and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them. 8And the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. 9And they stripped him and took away his head and his weapons, and sent throughout the land of the Philistines all around, to carry the news to their idols and to the people. 10And they put his weapons in the house of their gods, and his skull they fastened in the house of Dagon. 11And all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul, 12and all the valiant men arose and took away the corpse of Saul and the corpses of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh; and they buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days. 13So Saul died for his unfaithfulness that he committed against YHWH, because of the word of YHWH that he did not keep, and also for asking by calling up the dead, to consult, 14and he did not consult YHWH; and he put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
3The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers, men with the bow, found him, and he trembled greatly because of the archers.
