1 Samuel 15:23-26

For rebellion
<04805>

[is as] the sin
<02403>

of witchcraft
<07081>_,

and stubbornness
<06484> (8687)

[is as] iniquity
<0205>

and idolatry
<08655>_.

Because thou hast rejected
<03988> (8804)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

he hath also rejected
<03988> (8799)

thee from [being] king
<04428>_.

{witchcraft: Heb. divination}

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Samuel
<08050>_,

I have sinned
<02398> (8804)_:

for I have transgressed
<05674> (8804)

the commandment
<06310>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and thy words
<01697>_:

because I feared
<03372> (8804)

the people
<05971>_,

and obeyed
<08085> (8799)

their voice
<06963>_.

Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon
<05375> (8798)

my sin
<02403>_,

and turn again
<07725> (8798)

with me, that I may worship
<07812> (8691)

the LORD
<03068>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Saul
<07586>_,

I will not return
<07725> (8799)

with thee: for thou hast rejected
<03988> (8804)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

hath rejected
<03988> (8799)

thee from being king
<04428>

over Israel
<03478>_.
