Saul Seeks the Lord in Vain
1 Samuel 28:3-6
3
Now Sh'mu'el was dead; all Isra'el had mourned him and buried him in his city, Ramah. Also Sha'ul had expelled from the land those who tell the future by communicating with the dead or with a demonic spirit.
4
The P'lishtim assembled; then they went and pitched camp at Shunem; while Sha'ul gathered all Isra'el together and pitched camp at Gilboa.
5
When Sha'ul saw the army of the P'lishtim, he became afraid - it struck terror in his heart.
6
But when he consulted ADONAI, ADONAI didn't answer him - not by dreams, not by urim and not by prophets.
