*
And Samuel said to Saul , "
I will not return with you ;
for you have rejected the word of the LORD ,
and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel ."
*
As Samuel turned to go away ,
Saul laid hold upon the skirt of his robe ,
and it tore .
*
And Samuel said to him , "
The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you this day ,
and has given it to a neighbor of yours ,
who is better than you .
*
And also the Glory of Israel will not lie or repent ;
for he is not a man ,
that he should repent ."
*
Then he said , "
I have sinned ;
yet honor me now before the elders of my people and before Israel ,
and return with me ,
that I may worship the LORD your God ."
*
So Samuel turned back after Saul ;
and Saul worshiped the LORD .
