1 Samuel 31:8-13

8And it cameH935 to pass on the morrow, when the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 to stripH6584 the slainH2491, that they foundH4672 SaulH7586 and his threeH7969 sonsH1121 fallenH5307 in mount GilboaH1533. 9And they cutH3772 off his headH7218, and strippedH6584 off his armorH3627, and sentH7971 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430 roundH5439 about, to carry the tidings unto the houseH1004 of their idolsH6091, and to the peopleH5971. 10And they putH7760 his armorH3627 in the houseH1004 of the AshtarothH6252; and they fastened his body to the wallH2346 of Beth-shanH1052. 11And whenH834 the inhabitantsH3427 of Jabesh-gilead heardH8085 concerningH413 him that which the PhilistinesH6430 had done to SaulH7586, 12all the valiant menH376 aroseH6965, and wentH935 all nightH3915, and tookH3947 the body of SaulH7586 and the bodiesH1472 of his sonsH1121 from the wallH2346 of Beth-shanH1052; and they cameH935 to JabeshH3003, and burnt them there. 13And they tookH3947 their bonesH6106, and buriedH6912 them under the tamarisk-tree in JabeshH3003, and fastedH6684 sevenH7651 daysH3117.
