13 And Samuel said to Saul, (A)“You have done foolishly. (B)You have not kept the command of the Lord your God, with which he commanded you. For then the Lord would have established your kingdom over Israel forever. 14 But now (C)your kingdom shall not continue. The Lord has sought out a man (D)after his own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be prince[a] over his people, because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.” 15 And Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal. The rest of the people went up after Saul to meet the army; they went up from Gilgal[b] to (E)Gibeah of Benjamin.

And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, (F)about six hundred men.
