1 Samuel 31:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ The man saw that Saul was dead. So he fell on his own sword and died with him. ⁶ Saul and his three sons died together that same day. The man who carried his armor also died with them that day. So did all of Saul’s men.

⁷ The Israelites who lived along the valley saw that their army had run away. So did those who lived across the Jordan River. They saw that Saul and his sons were dead. So they left their towns and ran away. Then the Philistines came and made their homes in them.
