1 Samuel 28:8-11
Holman 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 killed the mediums and spiritists in 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, nothing bad will happen to you because of this.”
11 “Who is it that you want me to bring up for you?” the woman asked.
“Bring up Samuel for me,” he answered.

New International Version
8 So Saul disguised(A) himself, putting on other clothes, and at night he and two men went to the woman. “Consult(B) a spirit for me,” he said, “and bring up for me the one I name.”
9 But the woman said to him, “Surely you know what Saul has done. He has cut off(C) the mediums and spiritists from the land. Why have you set a trap(D) for my life to bring about my death?”
10 Saul swore to her by the Lord, “As surely as the Lord lives, you will not be punished for this.”
11 Then the woman asked, “Whom shall I bring up for you?”
“Bring up Samuel,” he said.
