| [1]Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa. |
[1]And the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines, and were ouerthrowen & wounded in mount Gilboa |
| [2]And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul. |
[2]And the Philistines folowed after Saul and his sonnes, and the Philistines smote Ionathan and Abinadab and Malchisua the sonnes of Saul |
| [3]And the battle prevailed against Saul, and the archers hit him, and he was wounded by the archers. |
[3]And the battaile went sore against Saul, and the archers founde him, and he was wounded of shooters |
| [4]Then said Saul to his armor-bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armor-bearer would not; for he was greatly afraid. So Saul took a sword, and fell upon it. |
[4]Then saide Saul to his harnesse bearer: Drawe thy sword, and thrust me through therwith, that these vncircumcised come not and do me shame. But his harnesse bearer would not, for he feared exceedingly: So Saul caught a sword, and fell vpon it |
| [5]And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died. |
[5]And when his harnesse bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell on a sword also, and dyed |
| [6]So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together. |
[6]And thus Saul and his three sonnes and al they of his house, dyed together |
| [7]And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came and dwelt in them. |
[7]And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley, sawe how they fled, and that Saul & his sonnes were dead, they forsoke their cities, and ran away: and the Philistines came, and dwelt in them |
| [8]And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his sons fallen in mount Gilboa. |
[8]And it fortuned, that on the morowe when the Philistines came to strip the dead bodies, they founde Saul and his sonnes ouerthrowen in mount Gilboa |
| [9]And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armor, and sent into the land of the Philistines around, to carry tidings to their idols, and to the people. |
[9]And when they had stript him, they toke his head and his harnesse, and sent them into the lande of the Philistines rounde about, to shewe them vnto their idols, and to the people |
| [10]And they put his armor in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon. |
[10]And they put his harnesse in the house of their god, and set vp his head in the temple of Dagon |
| [11]And when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul, |
[11]And when all they of Iabes [in] Gilead hearde all that the Philistines had done to Saul |
| [12]They arose, all the valiant men, 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. |
[12]They arose all the strongest of them, and fet away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, and brought them to Iabes, and buried the bones of them vnder an oke in Iabes, and fasted seuen dayes |
| [13]So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to inquire of it; |
[13]So Saul dyed for his trespasse that he trespassed against the Lorde, in that he kept not the word of the Lorde, and in that he sought and asked counsaile of a woman that wrought with a spirite |
| [14]And inquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom to David the son of Jesse. |
[14]And asked not of the Lorde, and therefore he slue him, and turned the kingdome vnto Dauid the sonne of Isai |
