7 Saul then said to his advisers, "Find a woman who is a medium, so I can go and ask her what to do."
His advisers replied, "There is a medium at Endor."
8 So Saul disguised himself by wearing ordinary clothing instead of his royal robes. Then he went to the woman’s home at night, accompanied by two of his men.
"I have to talk to a man who has died," he said. "Will you call up his spirit for me?"
15 "Why have you disturbed me by calling me back?" Samuel asked Saul.
"Because I am in deep trouble," Saul replied. "The Philistines are at war with me, and God has left me and won’t reply by prophets or dreams. So I have called for you to tell me what to do."
16 But Samuel replied, "Why ask me, since the Lord has left you and has become your enemy? 19 What’s more, the Lord will hand you and the army of Israel over to the Philistines tomorrow, and you and your sons will be here with me. The Lord will bring down the entire army of Israel in defeat."
