1 Samuel 28:7-9
7Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to his servantsH5650, “FindH1875 for me a womanH802 who is a mediumH1172H178, so 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 onH3847 differentH312 clothesH899, and wentH1980, he and twoH8147 menH376 with him, and they cameH935 to the womanH802 by nightH3915; and he saidH559, “4ConsultH7080 the spiritH178 for me, pleaseH4994, and 5bringH5927 upH5927 for me the one whomH834 I shall 6nameH559 for you.” 9But the womanH802 saidH559 to him, “BeholdH2009, you knowH3045 7whatH834 SaulH7586 has doneH6213, that he has eliminatedH3772 the mediumsH178 and spiritistsH3049 from the landH776. WhyH4100 are you then settingH5367 aH5367 trapH5367 for my lifeH5315, to bringH4191 aboutH4191 my deathH4191?”
