Saul said to his armor bearer,“Draw your sword and stab me with it! Otherwise these uncircumcised people will come, stab me, and torture me.” But his armor bearer refused to do it, because he was very afraid. So Saul took his sword and fell on it.
When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his own sword and died with him.
So Saul, his three sons, his armor bearer, and all his men died together that day.

The next day, when the Philistines came to strip loot from the corpses, they discovered Saul and his three sons lying dead on Mount Gilboa.
They cut off Saul’s head and stripped him of his armor. They sent messengers to announce the news in the temple of their idols and among their people throughout the surrounding land of the Philistines.
They placed Saul’s armor in the temple of the Ashtoreths and hung his corpse on the city wall of Beth Shan.
