The Death of Saul

1 ^qNow the Philistines were fighting against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines and fell slain ^ron Mount Gilboa. 2 And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down ^sJonathan and ^tAbinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul. 3 ^uThe battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was badly wounded by the archers. 4 ^vThen Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these ^wuncircumcised come and thrust me through, and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, ^xfor he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword ^yand fell upon it. 5 And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died with him. 6 Thus Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor-bearer, and all his men, on the same day together. 7 And when the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley and those beyond the Jordan saw that the men of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled. And the Philistines came and lived in them.
