1 Chronicles 10:12-14

New Catholic Bible

¹² all of their brave men rose up and took away the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons. They brought them to Jabesh and buried their bones under the oak tree in Jabesh. They then fasted for seven days.

^13 [a]Saul died because of the transgressions that he had committed against the Lord, against the word of the Lord which he did not observe, for he even consulted with a medium to make inquiry. ¹⁴ He did not inquire from the Lord. He slew him and turned the kingdom over to David, the son of Jesse.
