1 Samuel 31:2-4
English Standard Version
2 And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down (A)Jonathan and (B)Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul. 3 (C)The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was badly wounded by the archers. 4 (D)Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these (E)uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, (F)for he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword (G)and fell upon it.
