Biblia Brzeska (1563)
Abowiem nieposłuszeństwo jest grzech jako czary i jako nieprawość i bałwochwalstwo. A przetoż, iżeś wzgardził rozkazanie Pańskie, tedy też on ciebie odrzucił, abyś nie był królem.

Biblia Gdańska (1632)
Tedy rzekł Saul do Samuela: Zgrzeszyłem, żem przestąpił rozkazanie Pańskie i słowa twoje, gdyżem się bał ludu, i usłuchałem głosu ich.

Nowe Przymierze Zaremba
Bunt jest jak grzech uprawiania czarów, a upór jak oddawanie czci bożkom domowym. Ponieważ wzgardziłeś Słowem PANA, On wzgardził tobą - i nie będziesz królem.

Nowa Biblia Gdańska (2012)
Bo opór jest jak grzech wróżbiarstwa, a krnąbrność jak cześć dla bałwanów oraz domowych bożków. Ponieważ wzgardziłeś słowem WIEKUISTEGO, dlatego wzgardził i tobą, abyś nie pozostawał królem.

Uwspółcześniona Biblia Gdańska
Bunt bowiem jest jak grzech czarów, a upór jest jak nieprawość i bałwochwalstwo. Ponieważ odrzuciłeś słowo PANA, on także odrzucił cię jako króla.

Biblia Warszawska
Gdyż nieposłuszeństwo jest takim samym grzechem, jak czary, a krnąbrność, jak bałwochwalstwo i oddawanie czci obrazom. Ponieważ wzgardziłeś rozkazem Pana, więc i On wzgardził tobą i nie będziesz królem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft,.... Or divination e, in whatsoever way it was exercised; for there were various sorts of it among the Heathens, and all condemned by the law of God, Deuteronomy 18:10. Now rebellion against God, or disobeying his commands, though in things otherwise, were they not forbidden by him, lawful to be done, is as heinous a sin as to be guilty of witchcraft, or any kind of divination forbidden by the law of God, and deserves as sore a punishment:

and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry: for a man, when he has committed a sin, to persist in it obstinately, or to vindicate himself in it, and insist on his innocence, which was Saul's case, is as hateful to God as any iniquity whatever; yea, as bad as idolatry, or making use of the teraphim, as is the word here; of which see Hosea 3:4 than which nothing is more abominable to the Lord:

because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord; disregarded his command, treated it with contempt and abhorrence:

he hath rejected thee from being king; not actually, for he continued to exercise kingly power and authority to his death, and was treated as a king by his subjects, and even by David, though anointed by the Lord; but the sentence of rejection was pronounced upon him, and the bestowal of the government on his posterity was cut off.

e חטאת קסם "peccatum divinationis", Pagninus, Montanus, Vatablus; "ariolandi", V. L. "magiae", Munster, Tigurine version.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The meaning is “Rebellion is as bad as the sin of divination, and stubbornness is as bad as worshipping false gods (iniquity), and teraphim (idolatry).”

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Samuel 15:23. For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. — This is no translation of those difficult words, כי חטאת קסם מרי ואון ותרפים הפצר ki chattath kesem meri veaven utheraphim haphtsar. It appears to me that the three nouns which occur first in the text refer each to the three last in order. Thus, חטאת chattath, TRANSGRESSION, refers to און aven, INIQUITY, which is the principle whence transgression springs. קסם kesem, DIVINATION, refers to תרפים teraphim, consecrated images or telesms, vulgarly talismans, used in incantations. And מרי meri, REBELLION, refers evidently to הפצר haphstar, STUBBORNNESS, whence rebellion springs. The meaning therefore of this difficult place may be the following: As transgression comes from iniquity, divination from teraphim, and rebellion from stubbornness, so, because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king. All the versions are different.
