I Chronicles 10 · דברי הימים א

Now the Pelishtim fought against Yisra᾽el; and the men of Yisra᾽el fled from before the Pelishtim and fell down slain on mount Gilboa.

And the Pelishtim followed hard after Sha᾽ul, and after his sons; and the Pelishtim slew Yonatan, and Avinadav, and Malki-shua, the sons of Sha᾽ul.

And the battle went hard against Sha᾽ul, and the archers hit him, and he was in dread because of the archers.

Then Sha᾽ul said to his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and pierce me with it; lest these uncircumcised ones come and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was much afraid. So Sha᾽ul took a sword, and fell upon it.

And when his armourbearer saw that Sha᾽ul was dead, he fell likewise on the sword, and died.

So Sha᾽ul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together.

And when all the men of Yisra᾽el who were in the valley saw that they fled, and that Sha᾽ul and his sons were dead, then they forsook their cities, and fled: and the Pelishtim came and dwelt in them.

And it came to pass on the morrow, when the Pelishtim came to strip the slain, that they found Sha᾽ul and his sons fallen on mount Gilboa.

And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armour, and sent into the land of the Pelishtim round about, to carry tidings to their idols, and to the people.

And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.

And when all Yavesh-gil῾ad heard all that the Pelishtim had done to Sha᾽ul,

they arose, all the men at arms, and took away the body of Sha᾽ul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Yavesh, and buried their bones under the terebinth in Yavesh, and fasted seven days.

So Sha᾽ul died for his transgression which he committed against the Lord, against the word of the Lord, which he did not keep, and also for asking counsel of a medium, to make inquiry;

and he inquired not of the Lord: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Yishay.
