Löydetty 1273 Tulokset: Saul And His Sons
But David said to himself: "I shall perish some day at the hand of Saul. I have no choice but to escape to the land of the Philistines; then Saul will give up his continual search for me throughout the land of Israel, and I shall be out of his reach." (1 Samuel 27, 1)
When Saul was told that David had fled to Gath, he no longer searched for him. (1 Samuel 27, 4)
Now Samuel had died and, after being mourned by all Israel, was buried in his city, Ramah. Meanwhile Saul had driven mediums and fortune-tellers out of the land. (1 Samuel 28, 3)
The Philistine levies advanced to Shunem and encamped. Saul, too, mustered all Israel; they camped on Gilboa. (1 Samuel 28, 4)
When Saul saw the camp of the Philistines, he was dismayed and lost heart completely. (1 Samuel 28, 5)
Then Saul said to his servants, "Find me a woman who is a medium, to whom I can go to seek counsel through her." His servants answered him, "There is a woman in Endor who is a medium." (1 Samuel 28, 7)
So he disguised himself, putting on other clothes, and set out with two companions. They came to the woman by night, and Saul said to her, "Tell my fortune through a ghost; conjure up for me the one I ask you to." (1 Samuel 28, 8)
But the woman answered him, "You are surely aware of what Saul has done, in driving the mediums and fortune-tellers out of the land. Why, then, are you laying snares for my life, to have me killed?" (1 Samuel 28, 9)
But Saul swore to her by the LORD, "As the LORD lives, you shall incur no blame for this." (1 Samuel 28, 10)
When the woman saw Samuel, she shrieked at the top of her voice and said to Saul, "Why have you deceived me? You are Saul!" (1 Samuel 28, 12)
But the king said to her, "Have no fear. What do you see?" The woman answered Saul, "I see a preternatural being rising from the earth." (1 Samuel 28, 13)
"What does he look like?" asked Saul. And she replied, "It is an old man who is rising, clothed in a mantle." Saul knew that it was Samuel, and so he bowed face to the ground in homage. (1 Samuel 28, 14)
