27 And Samuel turned about to go away: but he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.

29 But the triumpher in Israel will riot spare, and will not be moved to repentance: for he is not a mail that he should repent.

33 And Samuel said: As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed him in pieces before the Lord in Galgal.
