Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478; and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 afterH310 SaulH7586, and afterH310 his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3129, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, the sonsH1121 of SaulH7586. {Abinadab: also called, Ishui.I.Sam.14.49.}
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H7198 hitH4672 him, and he was woundedH2342 of the archersH3384. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters with bows} {hit: Heb. found}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 to his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrustH1856 me through therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH5375+H3627 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. So SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it. {abuse me: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise on the swordH2719, and diedH4191.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191, and his threeH7969 sonsH1121, and all his houseH1004 diedH4191 togetherH3162.
And afterwardG2547 they desiredG154 a kingG935: andG2532 GodG2316 gaveG1325 unto themG846 SaulG4549 the sonG5207 of CisG2797, a manG435 ofG1537 the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, by the space of fortyG5062 yearsG2094.
AndG2532 when he had removedG3179 himG846, he raised upG1453 unto themG846 DavidG1138 to beG1519 their kingG935; to whomG3739 alsoG2532 he gave testimonyG3140, and saidG2036, I have foundG2147 DavidG1138 the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 mine ownG3450 heartG2588, whichG3739 shall fulfilG4160 allG3956 myG3450 willG2307.
Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478: and the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, Saul'sH7586 sonsH1121.
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H582+H7198 hitH4672 him; and he was soreH3966 woundedH2342 of the archersH3384+H582+H7198. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters, men with bows} {hit…: Heb. found him}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrust me throughH1856 therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrust me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH5375+H3627 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. Therefore SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it. {abuse…: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise upon his swordH2719, and diedH4191 with him.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191, and his threeH7969 sonsH1121, and his armourbearerH5375+H3627, and all his menH582, that same dayH3117 togetherH3162.
Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478: and the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 upon SaulH7586 and upon his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3083, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, Saul'sH7586 sonsH1121.
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H582+H7198 hitH4672 him; and he was soreH3966 woundedH2342 of the archersH3384+H582+H7198. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters, men with bows} {hit…: Heb. found him}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 unto his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrust me throughH1856 therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and thrust me throughH1856, and abuseH5953 me.

And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise upon his swordH2719, and diedH4191 with him.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191, and his threeH7969 sonsH1121, and his armourbearerH5375+H3627, and all his menH582, that same dayH3117 togetherH3162.
And when the menH582 of IsraelH3478 that were on the other sideH5676 of the valleyH6010, and they that were on the other sideH5676 JordanH3383, sawH7200 that the menH582 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127, and that SaulH7586 and his sonsH1121 were deadH4191, they forsookH5800 the citiesH5892, and fledH5127; and the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 and dweltH3427 in them.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, when the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 to stripH6584 the slainH2491, that they foundH4672 SaulH7586 and his threeH7969 sonsH1121 fallenH5307 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533.
And they cut offH3772 his headH7218, and stripped offH6584 his armourH3627, and sentH7971 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430 round aboutH5439, to publishH1319 it in the houseH1004 of their idolsH6091, and among the peopleH5971.
And they putH7760 his armourH3627 in the houseH1004 of AshtarothH6252+H1045: and they fastenedH8628 his bodyH1472 to the wallH2346 of BethshanH1052.
And when the inhabitantsH3427 of JabeshgileadH3003+H1568 heardH8085 of that which the PhilistinesH6430 had doneH6213 to SaulH7586; {of that: or, concerning him that}
All the valiantH2428 menH376+H381 aroseH6965, and wentH3212 all nightH3915, and tookH3947 the bodyH1472 of SaulH7586 and the bodiesH1472 of his sonsH1121 from the wallH2346 of BethshanH1052, and cameH935 to JabeshH3003, and burntH8313 them there.
And they tookH3947 their bonesH6106, and buriedH6912 them under a treeH815 at JabeshH3003, and fastedH6684 sevenH7651 daysH3117.
But the PhilistinesH6430 tookH270 him, and put outH5365 his eyesH5869, and brought him downH3381 to GazaH5804, and boundH631 him with fetters of brassH5178; and he did grindH2912 in the prisonH631 houseH1004. {put out: Heb. bored out}
Howbeit the hairH8181 of his headH7218 beganH2490 to grow againH6779 afterH834 he was shavenH1548. {after…: or, as when he was shaven}
Then the lordsH5633 of the PhilistinesH6430 gathered them togetherH622 for to offerH2076 a greatH1419 sacrificeH2077 unto DagonH1712 their godH430, and to rejoiceH8057: for they saidH559, Our godH430 hath deliveredH5414 SamsonH8123 our enemyH341 into our handH3027.
And when the peopleH5971 sawH7200 him, they praisedH1984 their godH430: for they saidH559, Our godH430 hath deliveredH5414 into our handsH3027 our enemyH341, and the destroyerH2717 of our countryH776, which slewH2491 manyH7235 of us. {which…: Heb. and who multiplied our slain}
And it came to pass, when their heartsH3820 were merryH2896, that they saidH559, CallH7121 for SamsonH8123, that he may make us sportH7832. And they calledH7121 for SamsonH8123 out of the prisonH631 houseH1004; and he made themH6440 sportH6711: and they setH5975 him between the pillarsH5982. {them: Heb. before them}
ForG1063 he isG2076 notG3756 a JewG2453, which is one outwardlyG1722+G5318; neitherG3761 is that circumcisionG4061, which is outwardG1722+G5318 inG1722 the fleshG4561:
ButG235 he is a JewG2453, which is one inwardlyG1722+G2927; andG2532 circumcisionG4061 is that of the heartG2588, inG1722 the spiritG4151, and notG3756 in the letterG1121; whoseG3739 praiseG1868 is notG3756 ofG1537 menG444, butG235 ofG1537 GodG2316.
InG1722 whomG3739 alsoG2532 ye are circumcisedG4059 with the circumcisionG4061 made without handsG886, inG1722 putting offG555 the bodyG4983 of the sinsG266 of the fleshG4561 byG1722 the circumcisionG4061 of ChristG5547:
Moreover the LORDH3068 will also deliverH5414 IsraelH3478 with thee into the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430: and to morrowH4279 shalt thou and thy sonsH1121 be with me: the LORDH3068 also shall deliverH5414 the hostH4264 of IsraelH3478 into the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430.
And JonathanH3083 strippedH6584 himself of the robeH4598 that was upon him, and gaveH5414 it to DavidH1732, and his garmentsH4055, even to his swordH2719, and to his bowH7198, and to his girdleH2289.
Then cameH935 DavidH1732 to NobH5011 to AhimelechH288 the priestH3548: and AhimelechH288 was afraidH2729 at the meetingH7125 of DavidH1732, and saidH559 unto him, Why art thou alone, and no manH376 with thee?
Now the PhilistinesH6430 foughtH3898 against IsraelH3478; and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430, and fell downH5307 slainH2491 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533. {slain: or, wounded}
And the PhilistinesH6430 followed hardH1692 afterH310 SaulH7586, and afterH310 his sonsH1121; and the PhilistinesH6430 slewH5221 JonathanH3129, and AbinadabH41, and MalchishuaH4444, the sonsH1121 of SaulH7586. {Abinadab: also called, Ishui.I.Sam.14.49.}
And the battleH4421 went soreH3513 against SaulH7586, and the archersH3384+H7198 hitH4672 him, and he was woundedH2342 of the archersH3384. {and the archers: Heb. and the shooters with bows} {hit: Heb. found}
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 to his armourbearerH5375+H3627, DrawH8025 thy swordH2719, and thrustH1856 me through therewith; lest these uncircumcisedH6189 comeH935 and abuseH5953 me. But his armourbearerH5375+H3627 wouldH14 not; for he was soreH3966 afraidH3372. So SaulH7586 tookH3947 a swordH2719, and fellH5307 upon it. {abuse me: or, mock me}
And when his armourbearerH5375+H3627 sawH7200 that SaulH7586 was deadH4191, he fellH5307 likewise on the swordH2719, and diedH4191.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191, and his threeH7969 sonsH1121, and all his houseH1004 diedH4191 togetherH3162.
And when all the menH376 of IsraelH3478 that were in the valleyH6010 sawH7200 that they fledH5127, and that SaulH7586 and his sonsH1121 were deadH4191, then they forsookH5800 their citiesH5892, and fledH5127: and the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 and dweltH3427 in them.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, when the PhilistinesH6430 cameH935 to stripH6584 the slainH2491, that they foundH4672 SaulH7586 and his sonsH1121 fallenH5307 in mountH2022 GilboaH1533.
And when they had strippedH6584 him, they tookH5375 his headH7218, and his armourH3627, and sentH7971 into the landH776 of the PhilistinesH6430 round aboutH5439, to carry tidingsH1319 unto their idolsH6091, and to the peopleH5971.
And they putH7760 his armourH3627 in the houseH1004 of their godsH430, and fastenedH8628 his headH1538 in the templeH1004 of DagonH1712.
And when all JabeshgileadH3003+H1568 heardH8085 all that the PhilistinesH6430 had doneH6213 to SaulH7586,
They aroseH6965, all the valiantH2428 menH376, and took awayH5375 the bodyH1480 of SaulH7586, and the bodiesH1480 of his sonsH1121, and broughtH935 them to JabeshH3003, and buriedH6912 their bonesH6106 under the oakH424 in JabeshH3003, and fastedH6684 sevenH7651 daysH3117.
So SaulH7586 diedH4191 for his transgressionH4604 which he committedH4603 against the LORDH3068, even against the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he keptH8104 not, and also for askingH7592 counsel of one that had a familiar spiritH178, to enquireH1875 of it; {committed: Heb. transgressed}
And enquiredH1875 not of the LORDH3068: therefore he slewH4191 him, and turnedH5437 the kingdomH4410 unto DavidH1732 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448. {Jesse: Heb. Isai}
