1 Samuel 28:7-12

New International Version

⁷ Saul then said to his attendants, “Find me a woman who is a medium,^(A) so I may go and inquire of her.”

“There is one in Endor,^(B)” they said.

⁸ So Saul disguised^(C) himself, putting on other clothes, and at night he and two men went to the woman. “Consult^(D) a spirit for me,” he said, “and bring up for me the one I name.”

⁹ But the woman said to him, “Surely you know what Saul has done. He has cut off^(E) the mediums and spiritists from the land. Why have you set a trap^(F) for my life to bring about my death?”

¹⁰ Saul swore to her by the Lord, “As surely as the Lord lives, you will not be punished for this.”

¹¹ Then the woman asked, “Whom shall I bring up for you?”

“Bring up Samuel,” he said.

¹² When the woman saw Samuel, she cried out at the top of her voice and said to Saul, “Why have you deceived me?^(G) You are Saul!”
