1 Samuel 15:28-30

Young's Literal Translation

²⁸ And Samuel saith unto him, `Jehovah hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee to-day, and given it to thy neighbour who is better than thou;

²⁹ and also, the Pre-eminence of Israel doth not lie nor repent, for He [is] not a man to be penitent.'

³⁰ And he saith, `I have sinned; now, honour me, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn back with me; and I have bowed myself to Jehovah thy God.'
