1 Samuel 28:16 in Context — 1 Samuel 28
14 E ele lhe disse: Qual é sua forma? E ela respondeu: Um homem ancião vem, coberto de um manto. Saul então entendeu que era Samuel, e humilhando o rosto à terra, fez grande reverência.
15 E Samuel disse a Saul: Por que me inquietaste fazendo-me vir? E Saul respondeu: Estou muito angustiado; pois os filisteus lutam contra mim, e Deus se afastou de mim, e não me responde mais, nem por meio de profetas, nem por sonhos: por isto te chamei, para que me declares o que tenho de fazer.
16 Então Samuel disse: E para que perguntas a mim, havendo-se afastado de ti o SENHOR, e é teu inimigo?
17 o SENHOR pois fez como falou por meio de mim; pois cortou o SENHOR o reino de tua mão, e o deu a tua companheiro Davi.
18 Como tu não obedeceste à voz do SENHOR, nem cumpriste o furor de sua ira sobre Amaleque, por isso o SENHOR te fez isto hoje.
