ESV

1 When the Philistines attacked the Israelites, the Israelites ran away from the Philistines, and many fell dead on Mount Gilboa.
1 Now the Philistines fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled before the Philistines and fell slain on Mount Gilboa.
2 The Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and they killed his sons Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua.
2 And the Philistines overtook Saul and his sons, and the Philistines struck down Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.
3 The battle was fierce around Saul, and when the archers located him, he trembled in fear.
3 The battle pressed hard against Saul, and the archers found him, and he was wounded by the archers.
4 Saul said to his armor-bearer, "Draw your sword and kill me with it! Otherwise, these uncircumcised men will come and kill me or torture me." But his armor-bearer refused because he was terrified. So Saul took the sword and impaled himself on it.
4 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.
5 When the armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also impaled himself on his sword and died with Saul.
5 And when his armor-bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died.
6 So Saul and his three sons died; his whole household died together.
6 Thus Saul died; he and his three sons and all his house died together.
7 When all the Israelites who were in the valley saw that the army had run away and that Saul and his sons were dead, they abandoned their towns and fled. So the Philistines came to live in them.
7 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.
8 The next day when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his sons lying dead on Mount Gilboa.
8 The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, they found Saul and his sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
9 They stripped him, carried off his head and armor, and sent messengers throughout the land of the Philistines to spread the news to their idols and to the people.
9 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.
10 They placed his armor in their god's temple and displayed his skull on a pole in the temple of Dagon.
10 And they put his armor in the temple of their gods and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.
11 When all the people of Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
11 But when all Jabesh-gilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 all their warriors arose and recovered the corpses of Saul and his sons. They brought them back to Jabesh, buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted for seven days.
12 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.
13 Saul died because he was unfaithful to the LORD and hadn't followed the LORD's word. He even consulted a medium for guidance.
13 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.
14 He didn't consult the LORD, so the LORD killed him and gave the kingdom to David, Jesse's son.
14 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.
