4. Then the Philistines gathered themselves together. And they came and camped in Shunem. So Saul gathered all Israel together, and they camped in Gilboa.
5. When Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was afraid and his heart trembled greatly.
6. Saul inquired of the Lord, but the Lord did not answer him by dreams, or by lots, or by prophets.
7. Then said Saul to his servants, “Seek for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her.”And his servants said to him, “There is woman medium in Endor.”
8. So Saul disguised himself, put on other clothes, and he went with two of his men. And they came to the woman by night and he said, “Please divine for me by a spirit, and bring up for me whom I will name to you.”
