שמואל א יג:יג מדרש: Sifrei Devarim

וַיֹּ֧אמֶר שְׁמוּאֵ֛ל אֶל־שָׁא֖וּל נִסְכָּ֑לְתָּ לֹ֣א שָׁמַ֗רְתָּ אֶת־מִצְוַ֞ת יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהֶ֙יךָ֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר צִוָּ֔ךְ כִּ֣י עַתָּ֗ה הֵכִ֨ין יְהוָ֧ה אֶת־מַֽמְלַכְתְּךָ֛ אֶל־יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל עַד־עוֹלָֽם׃

Sifrei Devarim

"and so that he not turn aside from the mitzvah": even a "slight" mitzvah of a prophet. And thus is it written (I Samuel 13:13) "And Samuel said to Saul: You have acted foolishly. You have not kept the mitzvah, etc." "and so that he not turn aside from the mitzvah, right or left": even if he (seems to be) told that right is left and left is right.
