1 Samuel 28:3-9

3Now 1Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him and buried him 2in Ramah, his own city. And Saul had removed from the land those who 3were mediums and spiritists. 4So the Philistines gathered together and came and camped 4in Shunem; and Saul gathered all Israel together and they camped in 5Gilboa. 5When Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid and his heart trembled greatly. 66When Saul inquired of the Lord, 7the Lord did not answer him, either by 8dreams or by 9Urim or by prophets. 7Then Saul said to his servants, “Seek for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her.” And his servants said to him, “Behold, 10there is a woman who is a medium at 11En-dor.”

8Then Saul 12disguised himself by putting on other clothes, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night; and he said, “13Conjure up for me, please, and 14bring up for me whom I shall 15name to you.” 9But the woman said to him, “Behold, you know 16what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who are mediums and spiritists from the land. Why are you then laying a snare for my life to bring about my death?”
