1 Samuel 31:1-7

ECB(i) 1
THE DEATH OF SHAUL
And the Peleshethiy fight Yisra El: and the men of Yisra El flee the face of the Peleshethiy and fall pierced in mount Gilboa: 2 and the Peleshethiy adhere to Shaul and his sons; and the Peleshethiy smite Yah Nathan and Abi Nadab and Malki Shua - sons of Shaul: 3 and the war is heavy against Shaul and the bow shooter men find him; and he is mighty writhed by the shooters. 4 And Shaul says to his instrument bearer, Draw your sword and stab me; lest these uncircumcised come and stab me and exploit me. But his instrument bearer wills not; for he awes mightily: and Shaul takes a sword and falls on it: 5 and his instrument bearer sees Shaul die, and he likewise falls on his sword and dies with him. 6 And Shaul dies - and his three sons and his instrument bearer and all his men that same day together. 7 And the men of Yisra El beyond the valley and beyond Yarden see the men of Yisra El flee, and Shaul and his sons die, they forsake their cities and flee; and the Peleshethiy come and settle in them.
