1 Now the Philistims fought against Israel, and the me of Israel fled away from ye Philistims, and they fell downe wounded in mount Gilboa.
2 And the Philistims preassed sore vpon Saul and his sonnes, and slewe Ionathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua Sauls sonnes.
3 And when the battel went sore against Saul, the archers and bowmen hit him, and hee was sore wounded of the archers.
4 Then saide Saul vnto his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust mee through therewith, lest the vncircumcised come and thrust me through and mocke me: but his armour bearer would not, for hee was sore afraid. Therefore Saul tooke a sworde and fell vpon it.
5 And when his armour bearer sawe that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon his sword, and dyed with him.
6 So Saul dyed, and his three sonnes, and his armour bearer, and all his men that same day together.
