ગુજરાતી1 શમુએલ ૨૮:૮
શાઉલે વેષ બદલવા માટે જુદાં વસ્ત્રો પહેર્યા. અને તે તથા તેની સાથે બે માણસો રાત્રે તે સ્ત્રીની પાસે ગયા. તેણે તેને કહ્યું, “કૃપા કરી, તારી મંત્ર વિધા વડે મૃતકની મદદથી મારે માટે ભવિષ્ય જો અને જેનું નામ હું તને કહું તેને મારે માટે હાજર કર.”
हिन्दी1 शमूएल २८:८
तब शाऊल ने अपना भेष बदला, और दूसरे कपड़े पहनकर, दो मनुष्य संग लेकर, रातों-रात चलकर उस स्त्री के पास गया; और कहा, “अपने सिद्धि भूत से मेरे लिये भावी कहलवा, और जिसका नाम मैं लूँगा उसे बुलवा दे।”

In context

6When Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD didn’t answer him by dreams, by Urim, or by prophets.

7Then Saul said to his servants, “Seek for me a woman who has a familiar spirit, that I may go to her and inquire of her.” His servants said to him, “Behold, there is a woman who has a familiar spirit at Endor.”

8Saul disguised himself and put on other clothing, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night. Then he said, “Please consult for me by the familiar spirit, and bring me up whomever I shall name to you.”

9The woman said to him, “Behold, you know what Saul has done, how he has cut off those who have familiar spirits and the wizards out of the land. Why then do you lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?”

10Saul swore to her by the LORD, saying, “As the LORD lives, no punishment will happen to you for this thing.”
