New Testament

1 Chronicles 10:10-14 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

10. But his armor they consecrated in the shrine of their god, and his head they affixed in the temple of Dagon.

11. When the men of Jabesh Gilead had heard this, specifically, all that the Philistines had done concerning Saul,

12. each one of the valiant men rose up, and they took the bodies of Saul and of his sons. And they brought them to Jabesh. And they buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabesh. And they fasted for seven days.

13. Thus did Saul die for his iniquities, because he betrayed the commandment of the Lord which he had instructed, and did not keep it. And moreover, he even consulted a woman diviner;

14. for he did not trust in the Lord. Because of this, he caused his death, and he transferred his kingdom to David, the son of Jesse.
