3. The battle went hard against Saul, and the archers overtook him; and he was distressed by reason of the archers.

4. Then Saul said to his armor bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me.” But his armor bearer would not; for he was terrified. Therefore Saul took his sword, and fell on it.
