15 And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul answered, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do.
11 I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.
19 Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonour: mine adversaries are all before thee.
23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise up against thee increaseth continually.
