1 Samuel 28:6-8
International Standard Version
6 Saul inquired of the Lord, but the Lord did not answer him, either through dreams or Urim[a] or through prophets. 7 Saul told his servants, “Find me a woman who is a medium so I can go to her and make my inquiry through her.”
His servants told him, “Look, there’s a woman at Endor who is a medium.”
8 Saul disguised himself, putting on different clothes. He went along with two men to the woman at night. He said, “Consult a familiar spirit for me and bring up for me the one whom I tell you.”

New International Version
6 He inquired(A) of the Lord, but the Lord did not answer him by dreams(B) or Urim(C) or prophets.(D) 7 Saul then said to his attendants, “Find me a woman who is a medium,(E) so I may go and inquire of her.”
“There is one in Endor,(F)” they said.
8 So Saul disguised(G) himself, putting on other clothes, and at night he and two men went to the woman. “Consult(H) a spirit for me,” he said, “and bring up for me the one I name.”
