1 Samuel 28:8-11

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

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 cut off the mediums and spiritists from 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, no punishment will come to you^[a] from this.’

¹¹ ‘Who is it that you want me to bring up for you? ’ the woman asked.

‘Bring up Samuel for me,’ he answered.
