And it came to pass in those daysh3117, that the Philistinesh6430 gatheredh6908 their armiesh4264 togetherh6908h8799 for warfareh6635, to fighth3898h8736 with Israelh3478. And Achishh397 saidh559h8799 unto Davidh1732, Knowh3045h8799 thou assuredlyh3045h8800, that thou shalt go outh3318h8799 with me to battleh4264, thou and thy menh582.

And Davidh1732 saidh559h8799 to Achishh397, Surelyh3651 thou shalt knowh3045h8799 what thy servanth5650 can doh6213h8799. And Achishh397 saidh559h8799 to Davidh1732, Therefore will I makeh7760h8799 thee keeperh8104h8802 of mine headh7218 for everh3117.

3

Now Samuelh8050 was deadh4191h8804, and all Israelh3478 had lamentedh5594h8799 him, and buriedh6912h8799 him in Ramahh7414, even in his own cityh5892. And Saulh7586 had put awayh5493h8689 those that had familiar spiritsh178, and the wizardsh3049, out of the landh776.

4

And the Philistinesh6430 gathered themselves togetherh6908h8735, and cameh935h8799 and pitchedh2583h8799 in Shunemh7766: and Saulh7586 gatheredh6908 all Israelh3478 togetherh6908h8799, and they pitchedh2583h8799 in Gilboah1533.

And when Saulh7586 sawh7200h8799 the hosth4264 of the Philistinesh6430, he was afraidh3372h8799, and his hearth3820 greatlyh3966 trembledh2729h8799.

6

And when Saulh7586 enquiredh7592h8799 of the LORDh3068, the LORDh3068 answeredh6030h8804 him not, neither by dreamsh2472, nor by Urimh224, nor by prophetsh5030.

7

Then saidh559h8799 Saulh7586 unto his servantsh5650, Seekh1245h8761 me a womanh802 that hathh1172 a familiar spirith178, that I may goh3212h8799 to her, and enquireh1875h8799 of her. And his servantsh5650 saidh559h8799 to him, Behold, there is a womanh802 that hathh1172 a familiar spirith178 at Endorh5874.

8

And Saulh7586 disguisedh2664h8691 himself, and put onh3847h8799 otherh312 raimenth899, and he wenth3212h8799, and twoh8147 menh582 with him, and they cameh935h8799 to the womanh802 by nighth3915: and he saidh559h8799, I pray thee, divineh7080h8798 unto me by the familiar spirith178, and bring me him uph5927h8685, whom I shall nameh559h8799 unto thee.

9

And the womanh802 saidh559h8799 unto him, Behold, thou knowesth3045h8804 what Saulh7586 hath doneh6213h8804, how he hath cut offh3772h8689 those that have familiar spiritsh178, and the wizardsh3049, out of the landh776: wherefore then layest thou a snareh5367h8693 for my lifeh5315, to cause me to dieh4191h8687?

10

And Saulh7586 swareh7650h8735 to her by the LORDh3068, sayingh559h8800, As the LORDh3068 livethh2416, there shallh518 no punishmenth5771 happenh7136h8799 to thee for this thingh1697.

11

Then saidh559h8799 the womanh802, Whom shall I bring uph5927h8686 unto thee? And he saidh559h8799, Bring me uph5927h8685 Samuelh8050.

12

And when the womanh802 sawh7200h8799 Samuelh8050, she criedh2199h8799 with a loudh1419 voiceh6963: and the womanh802 spakeh559h8799 to Saulh7586, sayingh559h8800, Why hast thou deceivedh7411h8765 me? for thou art Saulh7586.

13

And the kingh4428 saidh559h8799 unto her, Be not afraidh3372h8799: for what sawesth7200h8804 thou? And the womanh802 saidh559h8799 unto Saulh7586, I sawh7200h8804 godsh430 ascendingh5927h8802 out of the earthh776.

14

And he saidh559h8799 unto her, What formh8389 is he of? And she saidh559h8799, An oldh2205 manh376 cometh uph5927h8802; and he is coveredh5844h8802 with a mantleh4598. And Saulh7586 perceivedh3045h8799 that it was Samuelh8050, and he stoopedh6915h8799 with his faceh639 to the groundh776, and bowedh7812h8691 himself. What...: Heb. What is his form?

15

And Samuelh8050 saidh559h8799 to Saulh7586, Why hast thou disquietedh7264h8689 me, to bring me uph5927h8687? And Saulh7586 answeredh559h8799, I am soreh3966 distressedh6887h8804; for the Philistinesh6430 make warh3898h8737 against me, and Godh430 is departedh5493h8804 from me, and answerethh6030h8804 me no more, neither byh3027 prophetsh5030, nor by dreamsh2472: therefore I have calledh7121h8799 thee, that thou mayest make knownh3045h8687 unto me what I shall doh6213h8799. by prophets: Heb. by the hand of prophets

16

Then saidh559h8799 Samuelh8050, Wherefore then dost thou askh7592h8799 of me, seeing the LORDh3068 is departedh5493h8804 from thee, and is become thine enemyh6145?

17

And the LORDh3068 hath doneh6213h8799 to him, as he spakeh1696h8765 by meh3027: for the LORDh3068 hath renth7167h8799 the kingdomh4467 out of thine handh3027, and givenh5414h8799 it to thy neighbourh7453, even to Davidh1732: to him: or, for himself
me: Heb. mine hand

18

Becauseh834 thou obeyedsth8085h8804 not the voiceh6963 of the LORDh3068, nor executedsth6213h8804 his fierceh2740 wrathh639 upon Amalekh6002, therefore hath the LORDh3068 doneh6213h8804 this thingh1697 unto thee this dayh3117.

19

Moreover the LORDh3068 will also deliverh5414h8799 Israelh3478 with thee into the handh3027 of the Philistinesh6430: and to morrowh4279 shalt thou and thy sonsh1121 be with me: the LORDh3068 also shall deliverh5414h8799 the hosth4264 of Israelh3478 into the handh3027 of the Philistinesh6430.

20

Then Saulh7586 fellh5307h8799 straightwayh4116h8762 allh4393 alongh6967 on the earthh776, and was soreh3966 afraidh3372h8799, because of the wordsh1697 of Samuelh8050: and there was no strengthh3581 in him; for he had eatenh398h8804 no breadh3899 all the dayh3117, nor all the nighth3915. fell...: Heb. made haste, and fell with the fulness of his stature

21

And the womanh802 cameh935h8799 unto Saulh7586, and sawh7200h8799 that he was soreh3966 troubledh926h8738, and saidh559h8799 unto him, Behold, thine handmaidh8198 hath obeyedh8085h8804 thy voiceh6963, and I have puth7760h8799 my lifeh5315 in my handh3709, and have hearkenedh8085h8799 unto thy wordsh1697 which thou spakesth1696h8765 unto me.

22

Now therefore, I pray thee, hearkenh8085h8798 thou also unto the voiceh6963 of thine handmaidh8198, and let me seth7760h8799 a morselh6595 of breadh3899 beforeh6440 thee; and eath398h8798, that thou mayest have strengthh3581, when thou goesth3212h8799 on thy wayh1870.

23

But he refusedh3985h8762, and saidh559h8799, I will not eath398h8799. But his servantsh5650, together with the womanh802, compelledh6555h8799 him; and he hearkenedh8085h8799 unto their voiceh6963. So he aroseh6965h8799 from the earthh776, and sath3427h8799 upon the bedh4296.

24

And the womanh802 had a fath4770 calfh5695 in the househ1004; and she hastedh4116h8762, and killedh2076h8799 it, and tookh3947h8799 flourh7058, and kneadedh3888h8799 it , and did bakeh644h8799 unleavened breadh4682 thereof:

25

And she broughth5066h8686 it beforeh6440 Saulh7586, and beforeh6440 his servantsh5650; and they did eath398h8799. Then they rose uph6965h8799, and went awayh3212h8799 that nighth3915.
