the people
<05971>
<05971>
them in Telaim

And Saul

<07586>
to a city
<05892>
<05892>
of Amalek
<06002>_,
<06002>_,
in the valley

{laid...: or, fought}<05158>_.
And Saul
<07586>

<05971>
<05971>
with the edge
<06310>
<06310>
of the sword

<02719>_.
But Saul
<07586>
<07586>
and the people

<05971>
Agag
<090>_,
<090>_,
and the best

<04315>
of the sheep
<06629>_,
<06629>_,
and of the oxen
<01241>_,
<01241>_,
and of the fatlings
<04932>_,
<04932>_,
and the lambs
<03733>_,
<03733>_,
and all [that was] good
<02896>_,
<02896>_,
them: but every thing
<04399>
<04399>
[that was] vile
<05240>
{fatlings: or, second sort}<05240>
Saul
<07586>
<07586>
[to be] king
<04428>_:
<04428>_:
from following
<0310>
<0310>
my commandments
<01697>_.
<01697>_.
Samuel
<08050>_;
<08050>_;
unto the LORD
<03068>

<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
<03068>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
What [meaneth] then this bleating
<06963>
<06963>
of the sheep
<06629>
<06629>
in mine ears
<0241>_,
<0241>_,
and the lowing
<06963>
<06963>
of the oxen
<01241>
<01241>
And Saul
<07586>
<07586>
them from the Amalekites
<06003>_:
<06003>_:
for the people

<04315>
of the sheep
<06629>
<06629>
and of the oxen
<01241>_,
<01241>_,
unto the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_;
<0430>_;
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
When thou [wast] little
<06996>
<06996>
in thine own sight
<05869>_,
<05869>_,
[wast] thou not [made] the head
<07218>
<07218>
of the tribes
<07626>
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>_,
<03478>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
thee king
<04428>
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_?
<03478>_?
And the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
thee on a journey
<01870>_,
<01870>_,
the sinners
<02400>
<02400>
the Amalekites
<06002>_,
{they...: Heb. they consume them}<06002>_,
the voice
<06963>
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
upon the spoil
<07998>_,
<07998>_,
evil
<07451>
<07451>

<05869>
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
<03068>_?
And Saul
<07586>
<07586>
unto Samuel
<08050>_,
<08050>_,
the voice
<06963>
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
the way
<01870>
<01870>
which the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
Agag
<090>
<090>
the king
<04428>
<04428>
of Amalek
<06002>_,
<06002>_,
the Amalekites
<06002>_.
<06002>_.
But the people
<05971>
<05971>
of the spoil
<07998>_,
<07998>_,
sheep
<06629>
<06629>

<01241>_,
the chief
<07225>
<07225>
of the things which should have been utterly destroyed

<02764>_,
unto the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
<0430>
in Gilgal
<01537>_.
<01537>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
Hath the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
[as great] delight
<02656>
<02656>
in burnt offerings
<05930>
<05930>
and sacrifices
<02077>_,
<02077>_,
the voice
<06963>
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>_?
<03068>_?
[is] better
<02896>
<02896>
than sacrifice
<02077>_,
<02077>_,
than the fat
<02459>
<02459>
of rams
<0352>_.
<0352>_.
For rebellion
<04805>
<04805>
[is as] the sin
<02403>
<02403>
of witchcraft
<07081>_,
<07081>_,
[is as] iniquity
<0205>
<0205>
and idolatry
<08655>_.
<08655>_.
the word
<01697>
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
thee from [being] king
<04428>_.
{witchcraft: Heb. divination}<04428>_.
And Saul
<07586>
<07586>
unto Samuel
<08050>_,
<08050>_,
the commandment
<06310>
<06310>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
and thy words
<01697>_:
<01697>_:
the people
<05971>_,
<05971>_,
their voice
<06963>_.
<06963>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
unto Saul
<07586>_,
<07586>_,
the word
<01697>
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
thee from being king
<04428>
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_.
<03478>_.
And Samuel
<08050>
<08050>
unto him, The LORD
<03068>
<03068>
the kingdom
<04468>
<04468>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
from thee this day
<03117>_,
<03117>_,
it to a neighbour
<07453>
<07453>
of thine, [that is] better
<02896>
than thou.<02896>
And also the Strength
<05331>
<05331>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
for he [is] not a man
<0120>_,
{Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory}<0120>_,
me now, I pray thee, before the elders
<02205>
<02205>
of my people
<05971>_,
<05971>_,
and before Israel
<03478>_,
<03478>_,
the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
<0430>_.
Samuel
<08050>_,
<08050>_,
to me Agag
<090>
<090>
the king
<04428>
<04428>
of the Amalekites
<06002>_.
<06002>_.
And Agag
<090>
<090>
unto him delicately
<04574>_.
<04574>_.
And Agag
<090>
<090>
Surely
<0403>
<0403>
the bitterness
<04751>
<04751>
of death
<04194>
