And Agag said, “Surely the bitterness of death is gone!” 33 But Samuel said, “(A)As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women.” And Samuel cut Agag to pieces before the Lord at Gilgal.

34 Then Samuel went to (B)Ramah, but Saul went up to his house at (C)Gibeah of Saul. 35 And (D)Samuel did not see Saul again until the day of his death, though Samuel (E)mourned for [b]Saul. And the Lord regretted that He had made Saul king over Israel.
