And the Philistines waged war against Israel. And fled from of the Philistines, and they fell slain in mount Gilboa.
And joined up against Saul and his sons. And struck down Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchi-shua, sons of Saul.
And weighs down against Saul, and find men bowmen; and he was wounded in the spleen.
And Saul said to the one carrying his weapons, Unsheathe your broadsword, and pierce me with it! lest should come and should pierce me, and should mock against me. But did not for he feared exceedingly. And Saul took his broadsword, and fell upon it.
And beheld that Saul died, and he fell also himself upon his broadsword, and died with him.
And Saul died, and three and the one carrying his weapons, and all his men, in that day at the same time.
And beheld the ones on the other side of the valley, and the ones on the other side of the Jordan, that fled and that Saul died, and his sons. And they leave their cities, and flee. And come and dwell in them.
And it came to pass on the next day, and come to strip the slain, and they find Saul and three fallen upon the mountains of Gilboa.
And they behead him, and they strip him of his weapons, and they send into of the Philistines round about, announcing good news their idols, and their people.
And they presented his weapons in the Astartion. And his body they fastened down on the wall in Beth-shan.
And hear as much as did to Saul.
And rose up And they went night, and took the body of Saul, and the body of Jonathan his son from the wall in Beth-sham. And they brought them into Jabish, and incinerated them there.
And they took their bones and they entombed them by the plowed field, the one in Jabish, and they fasted seven days.
