1 Then the Philistims fought against Israel: & the men of Israel fled before the Philistims, and fell downe slaine in mount Gilboa. Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa. Now the Philistines fought against Israel; the Israelites fled before them, and many fell dead on Mount Gilboa.
2 And the Philistims pursued after Saul and after his sonnes, & the Philistims smote Ionathan, and Abinadab, & Malchishua the sonnes of Saul. And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul. The Philistines were in hot pursuit of Saul and his sons, and they killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab and Malki-Shua.
3 And the battel was sore against Saul; and the archers hit him, and he was wounded of the archers. The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was wounded by the archers. The fighting grew fierce around Saul, and when the archers overtook him, they wounded him.
4 Then sayde Saul to his armour bearer, Drawe out thy sworde, and thrust me thorowe therewith, lest these vncircumcised come and mocke at me: but his armour bearer would not, for he was sore afraid: therefore Saul tooke the sword and fell vpon it. Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, for he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword and fell upon it. Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword and run me through, or these uncircumcised fellows will come and abuse me.” But his armor-bearer was terrified and would not do it; so Saul took his own sword and fell on it.
5 And when his armour bearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise vpon the sworde, and dyed. And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died. When the armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he too fell on his sword and died.
6 So Saul dyed and his three sonnes, and all his house, they dyed together. Thus Saul died; he and his three sons and all his house died together. So Saul and his three sons died, and all his house died together.
7 And when all the men of Israel that were in the valley, sawe how they fledde, and that Saul and his sonnes were dead, they forsooke their cities, and fled away, and the Philistims came, and dwelt in them. And when all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and fled, and the Philistines came and lived in them. When all the Israelites in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons had died, they abandoned their towns and fled. And the Philistines came and occupied them.
8 And on the morrowe when the Philistims came to spoyle them that were slaine, they found Saul and his sonnes lying in mount Gilboa. The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa. The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 And when they had stript him, they tooke his head and his armour, and sent them into the land of the Philistims round about, to publish it vnto their idoles, and to the people. And they stripped him and took his head and his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to carry the good news to their idols and to the people. They stripped him and took his head and his armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to proclaim the news among their idols and their people.
10 And they layd vp his armour in the house of their god, and set vp his head in the house of Dagon. And they put his armor in the temple of their gods and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon. They put his armor in the temple of their gods and hung up his head in the temple of Dagon.
11 When all they of Iabesh Gilead heard all that the Philistims had done to Saul, But when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul, When all the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 Then they arose (all the valiant men) and tooke the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sonnes, and brought them to Iabesh, and buryed the bones of them vnder an oke in Iabesh, and fasted seuen dayes. all the valiant men arose and took away the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh and fasted seven days. all their valiant men went and took the bodies of Saul and his sons and brought them to Jabesh. Then they buried their bones under the great tree in Jabesh, and they fasted seven days.
13 So Saul dyed for his transgression, that he committed against the Lord, euen against the word of the Lord, which he kept not, and in that he sought & asked counsel of a familiar spirit, So Saul died for his breach of faith. He broke faith with the LORD in that he did not keep the command of the LORD, and also consulted a medium, seeking guidance. Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD; he did not keep the word of the LORD and even consulted a medium for guidance,
14 And asked not of the Lorde: therefore he slewe him, and turned the kingdome vnto Dauid the sonne of Ishai. He did not seek guidance from the LORD. Therefore the LORD put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse. and did not inquire of the LORD. So the LORD put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David son of Jesse.
