And the
king said unto her, Be not
afraid: for what
sawest thou? And the
woman said unto
Saul, I
saw gods ascending out of the
earth.

And he
said unto her, What
form is he of? And she
said, An
old man cometh
up; and he is
covered with a
mantle. And
Saul perceived that it was
Samuel, and he
stooped with his
face to the
ground, and
bowed himself.

And
Samuel said to
Saul, Why hast thou
disquieted me, to bring me
up? And
Saul answered, I am
sore distressed; for the
Philistines make
war against me, and
God is
departed from me, and
answereth me no more, neither
by prophets, nor by
dreams: therefore I have
called thee, that thou mayest make
known unto me what I shall
do.

Then
said Samuel, Wherefore then dost thou
ask of me, seeing the
LORD is
departed from thee, and is become thine
enemy?

And the
LORD hath
done to him, as he
spake by
me: for the
LORD hath
rent the
kingdom out of thine
hand, and
given it to thy
neighbour, even to
David:

Because thou
obeyedst not the
voice of the
LORD, nor
executedst his
fierce wrath upon
Amalek, therefore hath the
LORD done this
thing unto thee this
day.

Moreover the
LORD will also
deliver Israel with thee into the
hand of the
Philistines: and to
morrow shalt thou and thy
sons be with me: the
LORD also shall
deliver the
host of
Israel into the
hand of the
Philistines.

Then
Saul fell straightway all along on the
earth, and was
sore afraid, because of the
words of
Samuel: and there was no
strength in him; for he had
eaten no
bread all the
day, nor all the
night.

And the
woman came unto
Saul, and
saw that he was
sore troubled, and
said unto him, Behold, thine
handmaid hath
obeyed thy
voice, and I have
put my
life in my
hand, and have
hearkened unto thy
words which thou
spakest unto me.

22
Now therefore, I pray thee,
hearken thou also unto the
voice of thine
handmaid, and let me
set a
morsel of
bread before thee; and
eat, that thou mayest have
strength, when thou
goest on thy
way.

But he
refused, and
said, I will not
eat. But his
servants, together with the
woman, compelled him; and he
hearkened unto their
voice. So he
arose from the
earth, and
sat upon the
bed.
