11 When the inhabitants of Jaʹbesh-gilʹe·ad+ heard what the Phi·lisʹtines had done to Saul, 12 all the warriors rose and traveled all night and took the bodies of Saul and his sons off the wall of Beth-shan. They returned to Jaʹbesh and burned them there. 13 Then they took their bones+ and buried them under the tamarisk tree in Jaʹbesh,+ and they fasted for seven days.
