Verse 7 is found in chapter 10 of 1 Chronicles. Saul’s death and that of his sons in battle against the Philistines are narrated concisely. The Chronicler emphasizes the military disaster and the later humiliation of Saul’s body. The people of Jabesh-gilead, who recover the bodies and bury them, recall the ancient relationship of loyalty between Jabesh and Saul.

E tutti gl’Israeliti, che stavano nella valle, veggendo che gl’Israeliti erano fuggiti, e che Saulle ed i suoi figliuoli erano morti, abbandonarono le lor città, e se ne fuggirono; ed i Filistei vennero, ed abitarono in esse
E, vendo todos os homens de Israel, que estavam no vale, que haviam fugido, e que Saul e seus filhos eram mortos, deixaram as suas cidades, e fugiram; então vieram os filisteus, e habitaram nelas.
