1 Samuel 28:9 in Context — 1 Samuel 28
7 Então Saul disse a seus criados: Buscai-me uma mulher que tenha espírito de necromante, para que eu vá a ela, e por meio dela pergunte. E seus criados lhe responderam: Eis que há uma mulher em En-Dor que tem espírito de necromante.
8 E Saul se disfarçou, vestiu outras roupas, e foi-se com dois homens, e vieram àquela mulher de noite; e ele disse: Eu te rogo que me adivinhes pelo espírito de pitonisa, e me faças subir a quem eu te disser.
9 E a mulher lhe disse: Eis que tu sabes o que Saul fez, como exterminou da terra os necromantes e os adivinhos; por que, pois, pões tropeço à minha vida, para me fazer morrer?
10 Então Saul jurou a ela pelo SENHOR, dizendo: Vive o SENHOR, que nenhum mal te virá por isto.
11 A mulher então disse: A quem te farei vir? E ele respondeu: Faze-me vir a Samuel.
