1 Samuel 31:2-4
2And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and Malchi–shuaH4444, Saul’sH7586 sonsH1121.
3And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH7198H582H3384 hitH4672 him; and he was soreH3966 woundedH2342 of the archersH7198H582H3384.12
4Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto his armourbearerH3627H5375, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrust me throughH1856 therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrust me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH3627H5375 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. Therefore SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it.3
