The archers found him, and he was badly wounded by them. 4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, 'Draw your sword and pierce me with it, or these uncircumcised men will come and abuse me.' But his armor-bearer was too afraid and refused. So Saul took his sword and fell on it. 5 When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died with him. 6 So Saul, his three sons, his armor-bearer, and all his men died together that same day. 7 When the Israelites on the other side of the valley and the Jordan saw that Israel's army had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled.
