1 Samuel 13:9-16

9And SaulH7586 saidH559, Bring hitherH5066 a burnt offeringH5930 to me, and peace offeringsH8002. And he offeredH5927 the burnt offeringH5930. 10And it came to pass, that as soon as he had made an endH3615 of offeringH5927 the burnt offeringH5930, behold, SamuelH8050 cameH935; and SaulH7586 went outH3318 to meetH7125 him, that he might saluteH1288 him.1

11And SamuelH8050 saidH559, What hast thou doneH6213? And SaulH7586 saidH559, Because I sawH7200 that the peopleH5971 were scatteredH5310 from me, and that thou camestH935 not within the daysH3117 appointedH4150, and that the PhilistinesH6430 gathered themselves togetherH622 at MichmashH4363; 12Therefore saidH559 I, The PhilistinesH6430 will come downH3381 now upon me to GilgalH1537, and I have not made supplicationH2470 untoH6440 YhwhH3068: I forcedH662 myself therefore, and offeredH5927 a burnt offeringH5930.2 13And SamuelH8050 saidH559 to SaulH7586, Thou hast done foolishlyH5528: thou hast not keptH8104 the commandmentH4687 of YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, which he commandedH6680 thee: for now would YhwhH3068 have establishedH3559 thy kingdomH4467 upon IsraelH3478 forH5704 everH5769. 14But now thy kingdomH4467 shall not continueH6965: YhwhH3068 hath soughtH1245 him a manH376 after his own heartH3824, And YhwhH3068 hath commandedH6680 him to be captainH5057 over his peopleH5971, because thou hast not keptH8104 that which YhwhH3068 commandedH6680 thee. 15And SamuelH8050 aroseH6965, and gat him upH5927 from GilgalH1537 unto GibeahH1390 of BenjaminH1144. And SaulH7586 numberedH6485 the peopleH5971 that were presentH4672 with him, about sixH8337 hundredH3967 menH376.3 16And SaulH7586, and JonathanH3129 his sonH1121, and the peopleH5971 that were presentH4672 with them, abodeH3427 in GibeahH1387 of BenjaminH1144: but the PhilistinesH6430 encampedH2583 in MichmashH4363.45
