1 Samuel 15:16-23

Then Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Saul
<07586>_,

Stay
<07503> (8685)_,

and I will tell
<05046> (8686)

thee what the LORD
<03068>

hath said
<01696> (8765)

to me this night
<03915>_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Say on
<01696> (8761)_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

When thou [wast] little
<06996>

in thine own sight
<05869>_,

[wast] thou not [made] the head
<07218>

of the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

anointed
<04886> (8799)

thee king
<04428>

over Israel
<03478>_?

And the LORD
<03068>

sent
<07971> (8799)

thee on a journey
<01870>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)

and utterly destroy
<02763> (8689)

the sinners
<02400>

the Amalekites
<06002>_,

and fight
<03898> (8738)

against them until they be consumed
<03615> (8763)_.

{they...: Heb. they consume them}

Wherefore then didst thou not obey
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

but didst fly
<05860> (8799)

upon the spoil
<07998>_,

and didst
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_?

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Samuel
<08050>_,

Yea, I have obeyed
<08085> (8804)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and have gone
<03212> (8799)

the way
<01870>

which the LORD
<03068>

sent
<07971> (8804)

me, and have brought
<0935> (8686)

Agag
<090>

the king
<04428>

of Amalek
<06002>_,

and have utterly destroyed
<02763> (8689)

the Amalekites
<06002>_.

But the people
<05971>

took
<03947> (8799)

of the spoil
<07998>_,

sheep
<06629>

and oxen
<01241>_,

the chief
<07225>

of the things which should have been utterly destroyed
<02764>_,

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

in Gilgal
<01537>_.

And Samuel
<08050>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Hath the LORD
<03068>

[as great] delight
<02656>

in burnt offerings
<05930>

and sacrifices
<02077>_,

as in obeying
<08085> (8800)

the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>_?

Behold, to obey
<08085> (8800)

[is] better
<02896>

than sacrifice
<02077>_,

[and] to hearken
<07181> (8687)

than the fat
<02459>

of rams
<0352>_.

For rebellion
<04805>

[is as] the sin
<02403>

of witchcraft
<07081>_,

and stubbornness
<06484> (8687)

[is as] iniquity
<0205>

and idolatry
<08655>_.

Because thou hast rejected
<03988> (8804)

the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

he hath also rejected
<03988> (8799)

thee from [being] king
<04428>_.
