Zatem rzekł Samuel do Saula: Przecz mi nie dasz pokoju, wzbudzając mię? Odpowiedział mu Saul: Jestem uciśniony bardzo, gdyż Filistynowie walczą przeciwko mnie, a Bóg odstąpił odemnie, i nie odpowiada mi więcej, ani przez proroki, ani przez sny; przetoż przyzwałem cię, abyś mi oznajmił, co mam czynić.
Samuel zaś zapytał: Dlaczego mnie niepokoisz i każesz mi przyjść? Saul wyjaśnił: Jestem przygnębiony. Filistyni walczą ze mną, a Bóg ode mnie odstąpił. Nie odpowiada mi już ani przez proroków, ani przez sny. Przywołałem więc ciebie. Doradź mi, co mam robić.
Zaś Samuel powiedział do Saula: Czemu mnie niepokoisz, każąc mi się ukazać? A Saul odpowiedział: Jestem w wielkiej biedzie. Walczą ze mną Pelisztyni, zaś Bóg odszedł ode mnie i więcej mi nie odpowiada, ani przez proroków, ani przez sny. Tak więc wezwałem ciebie, abyś mi oznajmił, co mam czynić.

Samuel zaś powiedział do Saula: Dlaczego nie dajesz mi spokoju i wywołujesz mnie? Saul odpowiedział: Jestem w wielkim ucisku, gdyż Filistyni walczą ze mną, a Bóg odstąpił ode mnie i już nie odpowiada mi ani przez proroków, ani przez sny. Dlatego cię przyzwałem, abyś mi oznajmił, co mam czynić.
Samuel zaś rzekł do Saula: Czemu mnie niepokoisz, każąc mi przyjść? A Saul rzekł: Jestem w ciężkiej niedoli, Filistyńczycy wojują ze mną, a Bóg odstąpił ode mnie i już nie daje mi odpowiedzi ani przez proroków, ani przez sny; przywołałem więc ciebie, abyś mi oznajmił, co mam czynić.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Samuel said to Saul, why hast thou disquieted me to bring me up?.... This makes it a clear case that this was not the true Samuel; his soul was at rest in Abraham's bosom, in the state of bliss and happiness in heaven, and it was not in the power of men and devils to disquiet it; nor would he have talked of his being brought up, but rather of his coming down, had it been really he; much less would he have acknowledged that he was brought up by Saul, by means of a witch, and through the help of the devil:
and Saul answered, I am sore distressed; in mind, being in great straits and difficulties, pressed hard upon by men, and forsaken of God, as follows:
for the Philistines make war against me; so they had many times, and he had been victorious, and had no reason to be so much distressed, if that was all: but he adds,
and God is departed from me: and therefore he feared he should be left to fall into their hands; and that he had forsaken him he concluded from hence,
and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams:
:-; he makes no mention of Urim, either because they were not with him to inquire by, being carried away by Abiathar when he fled to David, 1 Samuel 23:9; or, as the Jews say h, through shame, he said nothing of the Urim before Samuel, as he took this appearance to be, because he had slain the priests at Nob, and because of this shame, they say, his sin was forgiven him:
therefore have I called thee, that thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do; which was downright madness and folly to imagine, that since God had forsaken him, and would give him no answer, that a prophet of his should take his part; or when he could get no answer from a prophet of God on earth, that he could expect an agreeable one from one fetched down from heaven: one would be tempted to think that he himself believed it was the devil he was talking to, and whom he had called for under the name of Samuel, and expected to see; for from whom else could he expect advice, when he was forsaken of God, and his prophets?
h T. Bab. Beracot, fol. 12. 2.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Samuel 28:15. Why hast thou disquieted me — The complaint is not directed against the woman but against Saul. Indeed, her incantations had no influence in the business, and it does not appear that she had commenced her operations before the angels had prepared the way of the prophet, and before the prophet himself had made his appearance.
That thou mayest make known unto me what I shall do. — In his former difficulties, and when pressed by his enemies, he was in the habit of consulting Samuel; and now he applies to him as his former preceptor. God, he knew, might answer by such a man as Samuel, when he would answer by no other means.
