24 Entonces Saúl dijo á Samuel: Yo he pecado; que he quebrantado el dicho de Jehová y tus palabras: porque temí al pueblo, consentí á la voz de ellos. Perdona pues ahora mi pecado,

25 Y vuelve conmigo para que adore á Jehová.

26 Y Samuel respondió á Saúl: No volveré contigo; porque desechaste la palabra de Jehová, y Jehová te ha desechado para que no seas rey sobre Israel.

27 Y volviéndose Samuel para irse, él echó mano de la orla de su capa, y desgarróse.
