1. And the Philistines fought against Yisra’ĕl. And the men of Yisra’ĕl fled from before the Philistines, and fell slain on Mount Gilboa.
2. And the Philistines pursued Sha’ul and his sons, and the Philistines smote Yonathan, and Aḇinaḏaḇ, and Malkishua, sons of Sha’ul.
3. And the battle was heavy on Sha’ul. And the archers hit him, and he was wounded by the archers.
4. And Sha’ul said to his armour-bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised ones come and abuse me.” But his armour-bearer would not, for he was much afraid, so Sha’ul took a sword and fell on it.
5. And when his armour-bearer saw that Sha’ul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died.
6. Thus Sha’ul and his three sons died, and all his house – they died together.
