1 Chronicles 10:6 In-Context

4 Saul said to his armor bearer, "Draw your sword and finish me off before these pagan pigs get to me and make a sport of my body." But his armor bearer, restrained by both reverence and fear, wouldn't do it.
5 The armor bearer, panicked because Saul was dead, then killed himself.
6 So Saul and his three sons - all four the same day - died.
7 When all the Israelites in the valley saw that the army had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their cities and ran off; the Philistines came and moved in.
8 The next day the Philistines came to plunder the dead bodies and found Saul and his sons dead on Mount Gilboa.
