1 Chronicles 10:9-14

1. 9 And when they had stripped him, they took his head, and his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to carry tidings unto their idols, and to the people.

2. 10 And they put his armour in the house of their gods, and fastened his head in the temple of Dagon.

3. 11 And when all Jabeshgilead heard all that the Philistines had done to Saul,

4. 12 They arose, all the valiant men, and took away the body of Saul, and the bodies of his sons, and brought them to Jabesh, and buried their bones under the oak in Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

5. 13 So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it;

6. 14 And enquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him, and turned the kingdom unto David the son of Jesse.
