Samuel
also said
unto Saul,
The LORD
sent
me to anoint
thee to be king
over his people,
over Israel:
now therefore hearken
thou unto the voice
of the words
of the LORD.
Thus saith
the LORD
of hosts,
I remember
that which Amalek
did
to Israel,
how he laid
wait for him in the way,
when he came up
from Egypt.
Now go
and smite
Amalek,
and utterly destroy
all that they have, and spare
them not; but slay
both man
and woman,
infant
and suckling,
ox
and sheep,
camel
and ass.

And Saul

and ten

of Judah.

And Saul
came
to a city
of Amalek,
and laid wait
in the valley.
And Saul
said
unto the Kenites,
Go,
depart,
get you down
from among
the Amalekites,
lest I destroy
you with them: for ye shewed
kindness
to all the children
of Israel,
when they came up
out of Egypt.
So the Kenites
departed
from among
the Amalekites.

And Saul
smote
the Amalekites
from Havilah
until thou comest
to Shur,
that is over against
Egypt.
And he took
Agag
the king
of the Amalekites
alive,
and utterly destroyed
all the people
with the edge
of the sword.
But Saul
and the people
spared
Agag,
and the best
of the sheep,
and of the oxen,
and of the fatlings,
and the lambs,
and all that was good,
and would
not utterly destroy
them: but every thing
that was vile
and refuse,
that they destroyed utterly.

Then came the word
of the LORD
unto Samuel,
saying,
It repenteth
me that I have set up
Saul
to be king:
for he is turned back
from following
me, and hath not performed
my commandments.
And it grieved
Samuel;
and he cried
unto the LORD
all night.

And when Samuel
rose early
to meet
Saul
in the morning,
it was told
Samuel,
saying,
Saul
came
to Carmel,
and, behold, he set him up
a place,
and is gone about,
and passed on,
and gone down
to Gilgal.

And Samuel
came
to Saul:
and Saul
said
unto him, Blessed
be thou of the LORD:
I have performed
the commandment
of the LORD.
And Samuel
said,
What meaneth then this bleating
of the sheep
in mine ears,
and the lowing
of the oxen
which I hear?
And Saul
said,
They have brought
them from the Amalekites:
for the people
spared
the best
of the sheep
and of the oxen,
to sacrifice
unto the LORD
thy God;
and the rest
we have utterly destroyed.

Then Samuel
said
unto Saul,
Stay,
and I will tell
thee what the LORD
hath said
to me this night.
And he said
unto him, Say on.
And Samuel
said,
When thou wast little
in thine own sight,
wast thou not made the head
of the tribes
of Israel,
and the LORD
anointed
thee king
over Israel?

Wherefore then didst thou not obey

but didst fly

evil
in the sight
of the LORD?
And Saul
said
unto Samuel,
Yea, I have obeyed
the voice
of the LORD,
and have gone
the way
which the LORD
sent
me, and have brought
Agag
the king
of Amalek,
and have utterly destroyed
the Amalekites.

And Samuel

Hath the LORD

in burnt offerings
and sacrifices,
as in obeying
the voice

Behold, to obey
is better

Because thou hast rejected

he hath also rejected
thee from being king.

And Saul
said
unto Samuel,
I have sinned:
for I have transgressed
the commandment
of the LORD,
and thy words:
because I feared
the people,
and obeyed
their voice.
say
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon
my sin,
and turn again
with me, that I may worship
the LORD.
And Samuel
said
unto Saul,
I will not return
with thee: for thou hast rejected
the word
of the LORD,
and the LORD
hath rejected
thee from being king
over Israel.
say
And as Samuel
turned about
to go away,
he laid hold
upon the skirt
of his mantle,
and it rent.
And Samuel
said
unto him, The LORD
hath rent
the kingdom
of Israel
from thee this day,
and hath given
it to a neighbour
of thine, that is better
than thou.

And also the Strength

Then he said,
I have sinned:
yet honour
me now, I pray thee, before the elders
of my people,
and before Israel,
and turn again
with me, that I may worship
the LORD
thy God.
say
So Samuel
turned again
after
Saul;
and Saul
worshipped
the LORD.
Then said
Samuel,
Bring ye hither
to me Agag
the king
of the Amalekites.
And Agag
came
unto him delicately.
And Agag
said,
Surely

of death
is past.

Then Samuel
went
to Ramah;
and Saul
went up
to his house
to Gibeah
of Saul.
And Samuel
came no more
to see
Saul
until the day
of his death:
nevertheless
Samuel
mourned
for Saul:
and the LORD
repented
that he had made Saul
king
over Israel.
