1 Samuel 13:7-14

7And some of the Hebrews crossed the Jordan into the land of 1Gad and Gilead. But as for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him, trembling.

8Now 2he waited for seven days, until the appointed time that Samuel had set, but Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattering from him. 9So Saul said, “Bring me the burnt offering and the peace offerings.” And 3he offered the burnt offering. 10But as soon as he finished offering the burnt offering, behold, Samuel came; and 4Saul went out to meet him and to 5greet him. 11But Samuel said, “What have you done?” And Saul said, “Since I saw that the people were scattering from me, and that you did not come at the appointed 6time, and that 7the Philistines were assembling at Michmash, 12I 8thought, ‘Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not 9asked the favor of the Lord.’ So I worked up the courage and offered the burnt offering.” 13But Samuel said to Saul, “10You have acted foolishly! 11You have not kept the commandment of the Lord your God, which He commanded you, for the Lord would now have established your kingdom 12over Israel 13forever. 14But 14now your kingdom shall not endure. 15The Lord has sought for Himself a man 16after His own heart, and the Lord has appointed him ruler over His people, because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.”
