  • 1 Sam 31:1-8 : 1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain on Mount Gilboa. 2 The Philistines pursued Saul and his sons, and they killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, Saul's sons. 3 The battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was critically wounded by the archers. 4 Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, "Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me." But his armor-bearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword and fell upon it. 5 When his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died with him. 6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armor-bearer, and all his men, that same day together. 7 When the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley and those who were across the Jordan saw that the men of Israel had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned the cities and fled, and the Philistines came and lived in them. 8 The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
  • 2 Sam 1:17-27 : 17 And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son: 18 (Also he commanded them to teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher.) 19 The beauty of Israel is slain upon your high places: how are the mighty fallen! 20 Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph. 21 You mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is disdainfully cast away, the shield of Saul, as though he had not been anointed with oil. 22 From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan did not turn back, and the sword of Saul did not return empty. 23 Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions. 24 You daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel. 25 How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! O Jonathan, you were slain in your high places. 26 I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant have you been to me: your love to me was wonderful, surpassing the love of women. 27 How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!

But his armor-bearer would not, for he was very afraid. So Saul took a sword and fell upon it. 5 And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he likewise fell on the sword and died. 6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house died together. 7 And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley saw that they had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook their cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
