1 Samuel 28:20-25 New King James Version (NKJV)

20. Immediately Saul fell full length on the ground, and was dreadfully afraid because of the words of Samuel. And there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no food all day or all night.

21. And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was severely troubled, and said to him, “Look, your maidservant has obeyed your voice, and I have put my life in my hands and heeded the words which you spoke to me.

22. Now therefore, please, heed also the voice of your maidservant, and let me set a piece of bread before you; and eat, that you may have strength when you go on your way.”

23. But he refused and said, “I will not eat.”So his servants, together with the woman, urged him; and he heeded their voice. Then he arose from the ground and sat on the bed.

24. Now the woman had a fatted calf in the house, and she hastened to kill it. And she took flour and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread from it.

25. So she brought it before Saul and his servants, and they ate. Then they rose and went away that night.
