1 Samuel 13:7-9

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁷ Some Hebrews crossed the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. Saul was still at Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.

⁸ He waited seven days, the time appointed by Samuel; but Samuel did not come to Gilgal, and the people began to slip away from Saul.^{[a] 9} So Saul said, “Bring the burnt offering here to me, and the offerings of well-being.” And he offered the burnt offering.
