Abimelech quickly said to the servant who carried his weapons, “Take out your sword and kill me. I want you to kill me so that people will not say, ‘A woman killed Abimelech.’” So the servant stabbed Abimelech with his sword, and he died.
Then Saul said to the helper who carried his armor, “Pull out your sword and use it to kill me. Then these foreigners will not hurt me and make fun of me when they come.” But the helper was afraid. He refused to kill Saul. So Saul used his own sword to kill himself by falling on it.
