9 And they cut off his head and stripped off his armor, and sent word throughout the land of the Philistines, to aproclaim it in the temple of their idols and among the people.
10 aThen they put his armor in the temple of the bAshtoreths, and cthey fastened his body to the wall of dBeth Shan.
11 aNow when the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 aall the valiant men arose and traveled all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh and bburned them there.
13 Then they took their bones and aburied them under the tamarisk tree at bJabesh, and fasted seven days.
