1 Samuel 31:1-4
11Now the PhilistinesH6430 were fightingH3898 against IsraelH3478, and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from the PhilistinesH6430 but fellH5307 fatallyH2491 woundedH2491 2on MountH2022 GilboaH1533.
2And the PhilistinesH6430 also overtookH1692 SaulH7586 and his sonsH1121, and the PhilistinesH6430 3killedH5221 4JonathanH3083, AbinadabH41, and Malchi-shuaH4444, the sonsH1121 of SaulH7586.
35The battleH4421 wentH3513 heavilyH3513 againstH413 SaulH7586, and the archersH3384H376H7198 foundH4672 him; and he was gravelyH3966 woundedH2342 by the archersH3384.
46Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to his armorH3627 bearerH5375, “DrawH8025 your swordH2719 and pierceH1856 me throughH1856 with it, otherwiseH6435 7theseH428 uncircumcisedH6189 Philistines will comeH935 and pierceH1856 me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me.” But his armorH3627 bearerH5375 was unwillingH3808H14, becauseH3588 he wasH3372 veryH3966 fearfulH3372. 8So SaulH7586 tookH3947 9his swordH2719 and fellH5307 on it.
