11 “Whom shall I call up for you?” the woman asked.“Samuel,” he answered.
12 When the woman saw Samuel, she screamed and said to Saul, “Why have you tricked me? You are King Saul!”
13 “Don't be afraid!” the king said to her. “What do you see?”“I see a spirit coming up from the earth,” she answered.
14 “What does it look like?” he asked.“It's an old man coming up,” she answered. “He is wearing a cloak.”Then Saul knew that it was Samuel, and he bowed to the ground in respect.
15 Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me? Why did you make me come back?”Saul answered, “I am in great trouble! The Philistines are at war with me, and God has abandoned me. He doesn't answer me any more, either by prophets or by dreams. And so I have called you, for you to tell me what I must do.”
16 Samuel said, “Why do you call me when the Lord has abandoned you and become your enemy?
17 The Lord has done to you what he told you through me: he has taken the kingdom away from you and given it to David instead.
