1 Samuel 15:22-24
New American Standard Bible
22 Samuel said,
“(A)Does the Lord have as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As in obeying the voice of the Lord?
Behold, (B)to obey is better than a sacrifice,
And to pay attention is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as reprehensible as the sin of (C)divination,
And insubordination is as reprehensible as (D)false religion and idolatry.
Since you have rejected the word of the Lord,
(E)He has also rejected you from being king.”
24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “(F)I have sinned, for (G)I have violated the [a]command of the Lord and your words, because I feared the people and listened to their voice.
