Verse 27 is found in chapter 15 of 1 Samuel. Saul confesses his sin, but his concern remains tied to his reputation before the elders and the people. Samuel maintains the judgment against the kingdom and finally executes Agag. He then separates from Saul and mourns for him. The rupture between them is not merely personal: it represents the loss of prophetic support for Israel’s first king. The chapter ends by preparing the search for a new king whose relationship with God will be described differently.

Und als Samuel sich umwandte, daß er wegginge, ergriff er ihn bei einem Zipfel seines Rocks, und er zerriß.
Y volviéndose Samuel para irse, él echó mano de la orla de su capa, y desgarrose.
Samuel se dio la vuelta para irse, pero Saúl se aferró al borde del manto de Samuel, y este se rasgó.
Et comme Samuel se tournait pour s'en aller, Saül le saisit par le pan de son manteau, qui se déchira.
E come Samuele si fu voltato per andarsene, Saulle prese il lembo del manto di esso, il quale si stracciò.
E virando-se Samuel para se ir, ele lhe pegou pela orla da capa, e a rasgou.
撒母耳 轉身要走, 掃羅 抓住他外袍的衣角,外袍就斷裂了。
