1 Samuel 28:11-15
11“WhomH4310 shall I bring upH5927 for you?” the womanH802 askedH559.
“Bring upH5927 SamuelH8050,” he repliedH559.
12But when the womanH802 sawH7200 SamuelH8050, she cried outH2199 in a loudH1419 voiceH6963 and saidH559 to SaulH7586H559, “WhyH4100 have you deceived meH7411? YouH859 are SaulH7586!”
13“Do notH408 be afraidH3372,” the kingH4428 repliedH559. “WhatH4100 do you seeH7200?”
“I seeH7200 a godH4301 coming upH5927 out ofH4480 the earthH776,” the womanH802 answeredH559.
14“WhatH4100 does he look likeH8389?” asked SaulH559.
“An oldH2205 manH376 is coming upH5927,” she repliedH559. “And he isH1931 wearingH5844 a robeH4598.”
So SaulH7586 knewH3045 thatH3588 itH1931 was SamuelH8050, and he bowedH6915 facedownH639H776 in reverenceH7812.
15Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 toH413 SaulH7586, “WhyH4100 have you disturbed meH7264 by bringing me upH5927?”
“I am deeplyH3966 distressedH6887,” repliedH559 SaulH7586. “The PhilistinesH6430 are fightingH3898 against me, and GodH430 has turned awayH5493 from meH5921. He noH3808 longerH5750 answers meH6030, eitherH1571 byH3027 prophetsH5030 orH1571 by dreamsH2472. So I have calledH7121 on you to tell meH3045 whatH4100 to doH6213.”
