Entonces Saúl dijo a su escudero: «Saca tu espada y atraviésame con ella, no sea que vengan estos incircuncisos y me atraviesen y me maltraten.» Pero su escudero no quiso, porque tenía mucho miedo. Entonces Saúl tomó su espada y se echó sobre ella.
Then said Saul unto his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword, and fell upon it. {abuse...: or, mock me}
