1 Samuel 15:24 in Context — 1 Samuel 15

22 E Samuel disse: Tem o SENHOR tanto contentamento com os holocaustos e vítimas, como em obedecer às palavras do SENHOR? Certamente o obedecer é melhor que os sacrifícios; e o prestar atenção que a gordura dos carneiros:

23 Porque como pecado de adivinhação é a rebelião, e como ídolos e idolatria o infringir. Porquanto tu rejeitaste a palavra do SENHOR, ele também te rejeitou para que não sejas rei.

24 Então Saul disse a Samuel: Eu pequei; porque violei o dito do SENHOR e tuas palavras, porque temi ao povo, consenti à voz deles. Perdoa, pois, agora meu pecado,

25 E volta comigo para que adore ao SENHOR.

26 E Samuel respondeu a Saul: Não voltarei contigo; porque rejeitaste a palavra do SENHOR, e o SENHOR te rejeitou para que não sejas rei sobre Israel.
