09:015:026 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee:  for
           thou hast rejected the word of the lord, and the lord hath
           rejected thee from being king over Israel.

09:015:027 And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the
           skirt of his mantle, and it rent.

09:015:028 And Samuel said unto him, The lord hath rent the kingdom of
           Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of
           thine, that is better than thou.

09:015:029 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent:  for
           he is not a man, that he should repent.

09:015:030 Then he said, I have sinned:  yet honour me now, I pray thee,
           before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn
           again with me, that I may worship the lord thy God.

09:015:031 So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the
           lord.

09:015:032 Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the
           Amalekites.  And Agag came unto him delicately.  And Agag said,
           Surely the bitterness of death is past.

09:015:033 And Samuel said, As the sword hath made women childless, so
           shall thy mother be childless among women.  And Samuel hewed
           Agag in pieces before the lord in Gilgal.

09:015:034 Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to
           Gibeah of Saul.

09:015:035 And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his
           death:  nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul:  and the lord
           repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.

09:016:001 And the lord said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for
           Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel?
           fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse
           the Bethlehemite:  for I have provided me a king among his
           sons.

09:016:002 And Samuel said, How can I go? if Saul hear it, he will kill
           me.  And the lord said, Take an heifer with thee, and say, I am
           come to sacrifice to the lord.

09:016:003 And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will shew thee what
           thou shalt do:  and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name
           unto thee.

09:016:004 And Samuel did that which the lord spake, and came to
           Bethlehem.  And the elders of the town trembled at his coming,
           and said, Comest thou peaceably?

09:016:005 And he said, Peaceably:  I am come to sacrifice unto the lord
           sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.  And he
           sanctified Jesse and his sons, and called them to the
           sacrifice.
