Samuel

Saul then removed his clothes and also prophesied before Samuel; he collapsed and lay naked all that day and all that night. That is why they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”

Samuel mourned

“I regret that I made Saul king, for he has turned away from following Me and has not carried out My instructions.” So Samuel became angry and cried out to the Lord all night.

The Lord said to Samuel, “How long are you going to mourn for Saul, since I have rejected him as king over Israel? Fill your horn with oil and go. I am sending you to Jesse of Bethlehem because I have selected a king from his sons.”

My eyes pour out streams of tears
because people do not follow Your instruction.

If my head were a spring of water,

my eyes a fountain of tears,
I would weep day and night
over the slain of my dear people.

that I have intense sorrow and continual anguish in my heart.

For I have often told you, and now say again with tears, that many live as enemies of the cross of Christ.
