Καὶ ἀλλόφυλοι ἐπολέμησαν πρὸς Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ἔφυγον ἀπὸ προσώπου ἀλλοφύλων καὶ ἔπεσον τραυματίαι ἐν ὄρει Γελβουὲ.

καὶ κατεδίωξαν ἀλλόφυλοι ὀπίσω Σαοὺλ καὶ ὀπίσω υἱῶν αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐπάταξαν ἀλλόφυλοι τὸν Ἰωναθὰν καὶ τὸν Ἀμειναδὰβ καὶ τὸν Μελχεισοῦε υἱοὺς Σαούλ.

καὶ ἐβαρύνθη ὁ πόλεμος ἐπὶ Σαούλ· καὶ εὗρον αὐτοὺς οἱ τοξόται ἐν τόξοις καὶ πόνοις, καὶ ἐπόνεσαν ἀπὸ τῶν τόξων.

καὶ εἶπεν Σαοὺλ τῷ αἴροντι τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ Σπάσαι τὴν ῥομφαίαν σου καὶ ἐκκέντησόν με ἐν αὐτῇ, μὴ ἔλθαωωσιν οἱ ἀπερίτμητοι οὗτοι καὶ ἐμπαίξωσίν μοι. καὶ οὐκ ἐβούλετο ὁ αἴρων τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐφοβεῖτο σφόδρα· καὶ ἔλαβεν Σαοὺλ τὴν ῥομφαἰαν καὶ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπʼ αὐτήν.

καὶ εἶδεν ὁ αἴρων τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἀπέθανεν Σαούλ, καὶ ἔπεσεν καὶ αὐτὸς ἐπὶ τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ.

καὶ ἀπέθανεν Σαοὺλ καὶ τρεῖς υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ πᾶς ὁ οἶκος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ ¹³ αὐτὸ ἀπέθανεν.

καὶ εἶδεν πᾶς ἀνὴρ Ἰσραὴλ ὁ ἐν τῷ αὐλῶνι ὅτι ἔφυγεν Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ὅτι ἀπέθανεν Σαοὺλ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ κατέλειπον τὰς πόλεις αὐτῶν καὶ ἔφυγον· καὶ ἦλθον ἀλλόφυλοι καὶ κατῴκησαν ἐν αὐταῖς.

Καὶ ἐγένετο τῇ ἐχομένῃ καὶ ἦλθον ἀλλόφυλοι τοῦ σκυλεύειν τοὺς τραυματίας, καὶ εὗρον τὸν Σαοὺλ καὶ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ πεπτωκότας ἐν τῷ ὄρει Γελβουὲ.

καὶ ἐξέδυσαν αὐτόν, καὶ ἔλαβον τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἀπέστειλαν εἰς γῆν ἀλλοφύλων κύκλῳ τοῦ εὐαγγελίσασθαι τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῶν καὶ τῷ λαῷ·

καὶ ἔθηκαν τὰ σκεύη αὐτῶν ἐν οἴκῳ θεοῦ αὐτῶν, καὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ ἔθηκαν ἐν οἴκῳ Δαγὼν.

καὶ ἤκουσαν πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαλαὰδ ἅπαντα ἃ ἐποίησαν ἀλλόφυλοι τῷ Σαοὺλ καὶ τῷ Ἰσραήλ.

καὶ ἠγέρθησαν ἐκ Γαλαὰδ πᾶς ἀνὴρ δυνατός, καὶ ἔλαβον τὸ σῶμα Σαοὺλ καὶ τὸ σῶμα τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἤνεγκαν καὐτὰ εἰς Ἰαβείς, καὶ ἔθαψαν τὰ ὀστᾶ αὐτῶν ὑπὸ τὴν δρῦν ἐν Ἰαβείς· καὶ ἐνήστευσαν ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας.

καὶ ἀπέθανεν Σαοὺλ ἐν ταῖς ἀνομίαις αὐτοῦ αἷς ἠνόμησεν τῷ θεῷ κατὰ τὸν λόγον Κυρίου, διότι οὐκ ἐφύ- λαξεν· ὅτι ἐπηρώτησεν Σαοὺλ ἐν τῷ ἐνγαστριμύθῳ τοῦ ζητῆσαι, καὶ ἀπεκρίνατο αὐτῷ Σαμουὴλ ὁ προφήτης,

καὶ οὐκ ἐζήτησεν Κύριον· καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν αὐτόν, καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Δαυεὶδ υἱῷ Ἰεσσαί.

Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.

The Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.

The battle went sore against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was distressed by reason of the archers.

Then said Saul to his armor-bearer, Draw your sword, and thrust me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armor-bearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell on it.

When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword, and died.

So Saul died, and his three sons; and all his house died together.

When all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.

It happened on the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.

They stripped him, and took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry the news to their idols, and to the people.

They put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.

When all Jabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,

all the valiant men arose, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

So Saul died for his trespass which he committed against Yahweh, because of the word of Yahweh, which he didn’t keep; and also because he asked counsel of one who had a familiar spirit, to inquire [thereby],

and didn’t inquire of Yahweh: therefore he killed him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse.
