1 Samuel 13:12

I said , Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal , and I have not sought the favor of the Lord . So I forced myself, and offered the burnt offering .

I thought, ‘Now the Philistines will come down against me at Gilgal, and I have not sought the Lord`s favor.` So I felt compelled to offer the burnt offering.”

Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the Lord : I forced myself therefore, and offered a burnt offering.
