17 And the Lord has done for [a]Himself (A)as He spoke by me. For the Lord has torn the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbor, David. 18 (B)Because you did not obey the voice of the Lord nor execute His fierce wrath upon (C)Amalek, therefore the Lord has done this thing to you this day. 19 Moreover the Lord will also deliver Israel with you into the hand of the Philistines. And tomorrow you and your sons will be with (D)me. The Lord will also deliver the army of Israel into the hand of the Philistines.”

  1. 1 Samuel 28:17 Or him, i.e., David

17 The Lord has done what he predicted through me. The Lord has torn(A) the kingdom out of your hands and given it to one of your neighbors—to David. 18 Because you did not obey(B) the Lord or carry out his fierce wrath(C) against the Amalekites,(D) the Lord has done this to you today. 19 The Lord will deliver both Israel and you into the hands of the Philistines, and tomorrow you and your sons(E) will be with me. The Lord will also give the army of Israel into the hands of the Philistines.”
