1 Samuel 15:15-16

Context
15:15 Saul said, “They were brought 1  from the Amalekites; the army spared the best of the flocks and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord our God. But everything else we slaughtered.”

15:16 Then Samuel said to Saul, “Wait a minute! 2  Let me tell you what the Lord said to me last night.” Saul 3  said to him, “Tell me.”

1 tn Heb “they brought them.”

2 tn Or perhaps “be quiet.”

3 tc The translation follows the Qere and many medieval Hebrew mss in reading the singular (“he said”) rather than the plural (“they said”) of the Kethib.

tn Heb “he”; the referent (Saul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
