1 Samuel 13:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And Samuel said, What hast thou done? Then Saul said, Because I saw that the people was [a]scattered from me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered themselves together to Michmash,
12 Therefore said I, the Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the Lord. I was bold therefore and offered a burnt offering.
13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy [b]God, which he commanded thee: for the Lord had now stablished thy kingdom upon Israel forever.
