1 Samuel 13:7-14

7Some HebrewsH5680 even crossedH5674 the JordanH3383 into the landH776 of GadH1410 and GileadH1568. Saul, howeverH7586, remainedH5750 at GilgalH1537, and allH3605 his troopsH5971 were quaking in fearH2729H310.

8And Saul waitedH3176 sevenH7651 daysH3117 for the time appointedH4150 byH834 SamuelH8050, but SamuelH8050 did notH3808 comeH935 to GilgalH1537, and the troopsH5971 began to desertH6327 Saul. 9SoH7586 he saidH559, “Bring meH5066H413 the burnt offeringH5930 and the peace offeringsH8002.” And he offered upH5927 the burnt offeringH5930.

Just as he finishedH3615 offeringH5927 the burnt offeringH5930H2009, SamuelH8050 arrivedH935, and SaulH7586 went outH3318 to greet himH7122H1288.

11“WhatH4100 have you doneH6213?” SamuelH8050 askedH559.

And SaulH7586 repliedH559, “WhenH3588 I sawH7200 thatH3588 the troopsH5971 were desertingH5310 meH5921, and that youH859 did notH3808 comeH935 at the appointedH4150 timeH3117 and the PhilistinesH6430 were gatheringH622 at MichmashH4363, 12I thoughtH559, ‘NowH6258 the PhilistinesH6430 will descendH3381 upon meH413 at GilgalH1537, and I have notH3808 soughtH2470 the favorH6440 of the LORDH3068.’ So I felt compelledH662 to offerH5927 the burnt offeringH5930.”

13“You have acted foolishlyH5528,” SamuelH8050 declaredH559. “You have notH3808 keptH8104 the commandH4687 thatH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 gave youH6680; if you hadH6258, the LORDH3068 would have establishedH3559 your kingdomH4467 overH413 IsraelH3478 forH5704 all timeH5769. 14But nowH6258 your kingdomH4467 will notH3808 endureH6965; the LORDH3068 has soughtH1245 a manH376 after His own heartH3824 and appointed himH6680H3068 rulerH5057 overH5921 His peopleH5971, becauseH3588 you have notH3808 keptH8104 the commandH6680 of the LORDH3068.”
