1 Samuel 28:21-23

New International Reader's Version

²¹ The woman went over to Saul because she saw that he was very upset. She said, “Look, I’ve obeyed you. I put my own life in danger by doing what you told me to do. ²² So please listen to me. Let me give you some food. Eat it. Then you will have the strength to go on your way.”

²³ But he refused. He said, “I don’t want anything to eat.”

Then his men joined the woman in begging him to eat. Finally, he paid attention to them. He got up from the ground and sat on a couch.
