1 Chronicles 10:12-14
New King James Version
12 all the (A)valiant men arose and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons; and they brought them to (B)Jabesh, and buried their bones under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.
13 So Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he had [a]committed against the Lord, (C)because he did not keep the word of the Lord, and also because (D)he consulted a medium for guidance. 14 But he did not inquire of the Lord; therefore He killed him, and (E)turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse.
