Rotherham(i)
1 Now, the Philistines, fought against Israel,––and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and the wounded fell in Mount Gilboa.
2 And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons,––and the Philistines smote Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, sons of Saul.
3 And the battle, went sore, against Saul, and the archers discovered him with the bow,––and he was terrified because of the archers.
4 Therefore said Saul unto his armour–bearer, Draw out thy sword and thrust me through therewith, lest these uncircumcised come and abuse me. But his armour–bearer would not, for he feared greatly,––so then Saul took the sword, and fell upon it.
5 And, when his armour–bearer saw that Saul was dead, then, he also, fell upon the sword, and died.
6 So Saul died, and his three sons, and, all his house, together, died.
7 And, when all the men of Israel that were in the vale saw, that they had fled, and that Saul and his sons were dead, then forsook they their cities, and fled, and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.
