1 Samuel 13:11-15

11And Samuel said, What hast thou done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash; 12Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto Yhwh: I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.1 13And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of Yhwh thy God, which he commanded thee: for now would Yhwh have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever. 14But now thy kingdom shall not continue: Yhwh hath sought him a man after his own heart, And Yhwh hath commanded him to be captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which Yhwh commanded thee. 15And Samuel arose, and gat him up from Gilgal unto Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people that were present with him, about six hundred men.2
