1 Samuel 15:23-25
English Standard Version
23 For rebellion is as the sin of divination,
and presumption is as iniquity and (A)idolatry.
Because (B)you have rejected the word of the Lord,
(C)he has also rejected you from being king.”
24 Saul said to Samuel, (D)“I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice. 25 Now therefore, please pardon my sin and (E)return with me that I may bow before the Lord.”
