1 Samuel 28:8-11

Christian Standard Bible

⁸ Saul disguised himself^(A) by putting on different clothes and set out with two of his men. They came to the woman at night, and Saul said, “Consult a spirit for me.^(B) Bring up for me the one I tell you.”^(C)

⁹ But the woman said to him, “You surely know what Saul has done,^(D) how he has cut off the mediums and spiritists from the land. Why are you setting a trap for me to get me killed?”

¹⁰ Then Saul swore to her by the Lord: “As surely as the Lord lives, no punishment will come to you^[a] from this.”

¹¹ “Who is it that you want me to bring up for you?” the woman asked.

“Bring up Samuel for me,” he answered.
