1 Samuel 31:1-3 ▼

1 Now the Philistines went to war against Israel, and the Israelites fled before them, and fell, slain on Mount Gilboa.

2 The Philistines pressed hard after Saul and his sons. When the Philistines had struck down Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, sons of Saul,

3 the fury of the battle converged on Saul. Then the archers hit him, and he was severely wounded.
