Revised Version 1895
1 Samuel 31:1-5
1Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 againstH6440 IsraelH3478: and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fellH5307 downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533.
2And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hard uponH7586 SaulH7586 and uponH7586 his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and Malchi-shuaH4444, the sonsH1121 of SaulH7586.
3And the battleH4421 wentH413 sore againstH413 SaulH7586, and the archersH3384 overtookH4672 him; and he was greatlyH3966 distressed by reason of the archersH3384.
4Then saidH559 SaulH7586 to his armourbearer, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrustH1856 meH5921 throughH1856 therewith; lestH6435 theseH428 uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrustH1856 meH5921 throughH1856, and abuse meH5921. But his armourbearer would notH3808; for he was sore afraidH3372. Therefore SaulH7586 tookH3947 his swordH2719, and fellH5307 uponH5921 it.
5And when his armourbearer sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he likewise fellH5307 uponH5921 his swordH2719, and diedH4191 with him.
