1 Samuel 28:17
He has done exactly what He spoke through me: The Lord has torn the kingship out of your hand and given it to your neighbor David.
And the Lord hath done to him, as he spake by me: for the Lord hath rent the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even to David:
Note to him: or, for himself
Note me: Heb. mine hand
The Lord has done to you as he spoke by me. The Lord has torn the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbor, even to David.
And Jehovah hath done unto thee, as he spake by me: and Jehovah hath rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbor, even to David.

- to him
- or, for himself. The LXX. read [soi,] and the Vulgate {tibi,} to thee; which is the reading of five of Dr. Kennicott's and De Rossi's MSS., as well as both the Bibles printed at Venice in 1518, where we read {lecha,} "to thee," for {lo,} "to him;" and as the words are spoken to Saul, this seems to be evidently the correct reading.
