1 Samuel 13:4-15

4And allH3605 IsraelH3478 heardH8085 1the newsH559 that SaulH7586 had attackedH5221 the garrisonH5333 of the PhilistinesH6430, and alsoH1571 that IsraelH3478 2had becomeH887 repulsiveH887 to the PhilistinesH6430. Then the peopleH5971 were summonedH6817 3to SaulH7586 at GilgalH1537.

5Now the PhilistinesH6430 assembledH622 to fightH3898 with IsraelH3478, thirtyH7970 thousandH505 chariotsH7393 and sixH8337 thousandH505 horsemenH6571, and 4peopleH5971 like the sandH2344 whichH834 is on the seashoreH3220H8193 in abundanceH7230; and they cameH5927 upH5927 and campedH2583 in MichmashH4363, eastH6926 of 5Beth-avenH1007. 6When the menH376 of IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that they were in troubleH6862 (for the peopleH5971 were hard-pressedH5065), then 6the peopleH5971 keptH2244 themselves hiddenH2244 in cavesH4631, in crevicesH2336, in cliffsH5553, in cryptsH6877, and in pitsH953. 7And some of the HebrewsH5680 crossedH5674 the JordanH3383 into the landH776 of 7GadH1410 and GileadH1568. But as for SaulH7586, he was stillH5750 in GilgalH1537, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 followedH310 him, tremblingH2729.

8Now 8he waitedH3176 for sevenH7651 daysH3117, until the appointedH4150 timeH4150 that SamuelH8050 had set, but SamuelH8050 did not comeH935 to GilgalH1537; and the peopleH5971 were scatteringH6327 from him. 9So SaulH7586 saidH559, “BringH5066 me the burntH5930 offeringH5930 and the peaceH8002 offeringsH8002.” And 9he offeredH5927 the burntH5930 offeringH5930. 10But as soon as he finishedH3615 offeringH5927 the burntH5930 offeringH5930, beholdH2009, SamuelH8050 cameH935; and 10SaulH7586 wentH3318 outH3318 to meetH7122 him and to 11greetH1288 him. 11But SamuelH8050 saidH559, “WhatH4100 have you doneH6213?” And SaulH7586 saidH559, “SinceH3588 I sawH7200 that the peopleH5971 were scatteringH5310 from me, and that you did not comeH935 at the appointedH4150 12timeH4150, and that 13the PhilistinesH6430 were assemblingH622 at MichmashH4363, 12I 14thoughtH559, ‘NowH6258 the PhilistinesH6430 will comeH3381 downH3381 againstH413 me at GilgalH1537, and I have not 15askedH2470 the favorH6440 of the LordH3068.’ So I workedH662 upH662 theH662 courageH662 and offeredH5927 the burntH5930 offeringH5930.” 13But SamuelH8050 saidH559 to SaulH7586, “16You have actedH5528 foolishlyH5528! 17You have not keptH8104 the commandmentH4687 of the LordH3068 your GodH430, whichH834 He commandedH6680 you, for the LordH3068 would nowH6258 have establishedH3559 your kingdomH4467 18overH413 IsraelH3478 19foreverH5704H5769. 14But 20nowH6258 your kingdomH4467 shall not endureH6965. 21The LordH3068 has soughtH1245 for Himself a manH376 22after His own heartH3824, and the LordH3068 has appointedH6680 him rulerH5057 overH5921 His peopleH5971, becauseH3588 you have not keptH8104 whatH834 the LordH3068 commandedH6680 you.”

15Then SamuelH8050 setH6965 outH6965 and wentH5927 upH5927 from GilgalH1537 to 23GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144. And SaulH7586 24countedH6485 the peopleH5971 who wereH4672 25presentH4672 with him, 26about sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376.
