1 Samuel 31:3-5

International Standard Version

³ The heaviest fighting was directed toward Saul,^[a] and when the bowmen who were shooting located Saul, he was severely wounded by them.^[b]

⁴ Saul told his armor bearer, “Draw your sword and run me through with it, or these uncircumcised people will come and run me through and make sport of me.” But his armor bearer did not want to do it^[c] because he was very frightened, so Saul took the sword and fell on it. ⁵ When his armor bearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword and died with him.
