1 Samuel 15:27 Context
25Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sinne, and turne againe with me, that I may worship the Lord. 26And Samuel said vnto Saul, I will not returne with thee: for thou hast reiected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath reiected thee from being king ouer Israel. 27And as Samuel turned about to goe away, he laid hold vpon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent. 28And Samuel said vnto him, The Lord hath rent the kingdome of Israel from thee this day, and hath giuen it to a neighbour of thine, that is better then thou. 29And also the strength of Israel will not lie, nor repent: for he is not a man that he should repent.
