23 H4805 For rebellion H2403 is as the sin H7081 of witchcraft H6484 [H8687] , and stubbornness H205 is as iniquity H8655 and idolatry H3988 [H8804] . Because thou hast rejected H1697 the word H3068 of the LORD H3988 [H8799] , he hath also rejected H4428 thee from being king.

24 H7586 And Saul H559 [H8799] said H8050 to Samuel H2398 [H8804] , I have sinned H5674 [H8804] : for I have transgressed H6310 the commandment H3068 of the LORD H1697 , and thy words H3372 [H8804] : because I feared H5971 the people H8085 [H8799] , and obeyed H6963 their voice.

25 H5375 [H8798] Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon H2403 my sin H7725 [H8798] , and turn again H7812 [H8691] with me, that I may worship H3068 the LORD.

26 H8050 And Samuel H559 [H8799] said H7586 to Saul H7725 [H8799] , I will not return H3988 [H8804] with thee: for thou hast rejected H1697 the word H3068 of the LORD H3068 , and the LORD H3988 [H8799] hath rejected H4428 thee from being king H3478 over Israel.
