1 Samuel 28:7-9
7Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to his servantsH5650, “SeekH1875 for me a womanH802 who is a mediumH1172H178, that I may goH1980 to her and inquireH1875 of her.” And his servantsH5650 saidH559 to him, “BeholdH2009, 1there is a womanH802 who is a mediumH1172H178 at 2En-dorH5874.”
8Then SaulH7586 3disguisedH2664 himself by puttingH3847 on otherH312 clothesH899, and wentH1980, he and twoH8147 menH376 with him, and they cameH935 to the womanH802 by nightH3915; and he saidH559, “4ConjureH7080 up for me, pleaseH4994, and 5bringH5927 up for me whomH834 I shall 6nameH559 to you.” 9But the womanH802 saidH559 to him, “BeholdH2009, you knowH3045 7whatH834 SaulH7586 has doneH6213, howH834 he has cutH3772 offH3772 those who are mediumsH178 and spiritistsH3049 from the landH776. WhyH4100 are you then layingH5367 a snareH5367 for my lifeH5315 to bringH4191 about my deathH4191?”
