1 Samuel 13:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 Therefore said I, the Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the Lord. I was bold therefore and offered a burnt offering.
13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of the Lord thy [a]God, which he commanded thee: for the Lord had now stablished thy kingdom upon Israel forever.
14 But now thy kingdom shall not continue: the Lord hath sought him a [b]man after his own heart, and the Lord hath commanded him to be governor over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the Lord had commanded thee.

1 Samuel 13:12-14
New International Version
12 I thought, ‘Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal,(A) and I have not sought the Lord’s favor.(B)’ So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering.”
13 “You have done a foolish thing,(C)” Samuel said. “You have not kept(D) the command the Lord your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time.(E) 14 But now your kingdom(F) will not endure; the Lord has sought out a man after his own heart(G) and appointed(H) him ruler(I) of his people, because you have not kept(J) the Lord’s command.”
