* And it came to pass on the morrow , when the Philistines came to strip the slain , that they found Saul and his three sons fallen in mount Gilboa . * And they cut off his head , and stripped off his armour , and sent into the land of the Philistines round about , to publish it in the house of their idols , and among the people . * And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth : and they fastened his body to the wall of Bethshan . * And when the inhabitants of Jabeshgilead heard of that which the Philistines had done to Saul ; * All the valiant men arose , and went all night , and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Bethshan , and came to Jabesh , and burnt them there . * And they took their bones , and buried them under a tree at Jabesh , and fasted seven days .
