1 Samuel 31:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ And the men of Israel, that were beyond the valley, and beyond the Jordan, seeing that the Israelites were fled, and that Saul was dead, and his sons, forsook their cities, and fled: and the Philistines came, and dwelt there.

⁸ And on the morrow the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his three sons lying in mount Gelboe.

⁹ And they cut off Saul's head, and stripped him of his armour, and sent into the land of the Philistines round about, to publish it in the temples of their idols, and among their people.
