- Kapitel 10 -

(1 Samuel 31:1–6; 2 Samuel 1:1–16)
1
Now the Philistines fought against Israel. Every man of Israel fled from before the Philistines and fell down dead on Mount Gilboa.
2
The Philistines closely pursued Saul and his son. The Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, his sons.
3
The battle went heavily against Saul, and the archers overtook him. He was in severe pain because of the archers.
4
Then said Saul to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword and thrust me through with it. Otherwise, these uncircumcised will come and abuse me.” But his armor bearer would not, for he was very afraid. So Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
5
When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword and died.
6
So Saul died, and his three sons, so all his household members died together.

The Philistines Possess the Towns

(1 Samuel 31:7–10)
7
When every man of Israel in the valley saw that they had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled. Then the Philistines came and lived in them.
8
It came about on the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, that they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9
They stripped him and took his head and his armor. They sent messengers throughout Philistia to carry the news to their idols and to the people.
10
They put his armor in the temple of their gods, and fastened his head to the temple of Dagon.

Jabesh-gilead’s Tribute to Saul

(1 Samuel 31:11–13)
11
When all Jabesh Gilead heard of all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12
all the fighting men went and took away the body of Saul and those of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh. They buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days.
13
So Saul died because he was unfaithful to Yahweh. He did not obey Yahweh’s instructions, but asked for advice from someone who talked with the dead.
14
He did not seek guidance from Yahweh, so Yahweh killed him and turned over the kingdom to David son of Jesse.
(1 Samuel 31:1–6; 2 Samuel 1:1–16)
1
Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa.
2
The Philistines followed hard after Saul and after his sons; and the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
3
The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was distressed by reason of the archers.
4
Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me.” But his armor bearer would not, for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword and fell on it.
5
When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on his sword and died.
6
So Saul died with his three sons; and all his house died together.

The Philistines Possess the Towns

(1 Samuel 31:7–10)
7
When all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities, and fled; and the Philistines came and lived in them.
8
On the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9
They stripped him and took his head and his armor, then sent into the land of the Philistines all around to carry the news to their idols and to the people.
10
They put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the house of Dagon.

Jabesh-gilead’s Tribute to Saul

(1 Samuel 31:11–13)
11
When all Jabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12
all the valiant men arose and took away the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13
So Saul died for his trespass which he committed against the LORD, because of the LORD’s word, which he didn’t keep, and also because he asked counsel of one who had a familiar spirit, to inquire,
14
and didn’t inquire of the LORD. Therefore he killed him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
