H5162 [H8738]
I repent
H4427 [H8689]
that I have set up
H7586
Saul
H4428
to be king
H7725 [H8804]
: for he is turned back
H310
from following
H6965 [H8689]
me, and hath not performed
H1697
my commandments
H2734 [H8799]
. And it grieved
H8050
Samuel
H2199 [H8799]
; and he cried
H3068
to the LORD
H3915
all night.
12
H8050
And when Samuel
H7925 [H8686]
rose early
H7125 [H8800]
to meet
H7586
Saul
H1242
in the morning
H5046 [H8714]
, it was told
H8050
Samuel
H559 [H8800]
, saying
H7586
, Saul
H935 [H8804]
came
H3760
to Carmel
H5324 [H8688]
, and, behold, he set him up
H3027
a place
H5437 [H8735]
, and hast gone about
H5674 [H8799]
, and passed on
H3381 [H8799]
, and gone down
H1537
to Gilgal.
13
H8050
And Samuel
H935 [H8799]
came
H7586
to Saul
H7586
: and Saul
H559 [H8799]
said
H1288 [H8803]
to him, Blessed
H3068
be thou of the LORD
H6965 [H8689]
: I have performed
H1697
the commandment
H3068
of the LORD.
14
H8050
And Samuel
H559 [H8799]
said
H6963
, What meaneth then this bleating
H6629
of the sheep
H241
in my ears
H6963
, and the lowing
H1241
of the oxen
H8085 [H8802]
which I hear?
15
H7586
And Saul
H559 [H8799]
said
H935 [H8689]
, They have brought
H6003
them from the Amalekites
H5971
: for the people
H2550 [H8804]
spared
H4315
the best
H6629
of the sheep
H1241
and of the oxen
H2076 [H8800]
, to sacrifice
H3068
to the LORD
H430
thy God
H3498 [H8802]
; and the rest
H2763 [H8689]
we have utterly destroyed.
16
H8050
Then Samuel
H559 [H8799]
said
H7586
to Saul
H7503 [H8685]
, Stay
H5046 [H8686]
, and I will tell
H3068
thee what the LORD
H1696 [H8765]
hath said
H3915
to me this night
H559 [H8799]
. And he said
H1696 [H8761]
to him, Say on.
17
H8050
And Samuel
H559 [H8799]
said
H6996
, When thou wast little
H5869
in thy own sight
H7218
, wast thou not made the head
H7626
of the tribes
H3478
of Israel
H3068
, and the LORD
H4886 [H8799]
anointed
H4428
thee king
H3478
over Israel?
18
H3068
And the LORD
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H1870
thee on a journey
H559 [H8799]
, and said
H3212 [H8798]
, Go
H2763 [H8689]
and utterly destroy
H2400
the sinners
H6002
the Amalekites
H3898 [H8738]
, and fight
H3615 [H8763]
against them until they are consumed.
19
H8085 [H8804]
Why then didst thou not obey
H6963
the voice
H3068
of the LORD
H5860 [H8799]
, but didst fly
H7998
upon the spoil
H6213 [H8799]
, and didst
H7451
evil
H5869
in the sight
H3068
of the LORD?
20
H7586
And Saul
H559 [H8799]
said
H8050
to Samuel
H8085 [H8804]
, Yea, I have obeyed
H6963
the voice
H3068
of the LORD
H3212 [H8799]
, and have gone
H1870
the way
H3068
which the LORD
H7971 [H8804]
sent
H935 [H8686]
me, and have brought
H90
Agag
H4428
the king
H6002
of Amalek
H2763 [H8689]
, and have utterly destroyed
H6002
the Amalekites.
21
H5971
But the people
H3947 [H8799]
took
H7998
of the spoil
H6629
, sheep
H1241
and oxen
H7225
, the chief
H2764
of the things which should have been utterly destroyed
H2076 [H8800]
, to sacrifice
H3068
to the LORD
H430
thy God
H1537
in Gilgal.
22
H8050
And Samuel
H559 [H8799]
said
H3068
, Hath the LORD
H2656
as great delight
H5930
in burnt offerings
H2077
and sacrifices
H8085 [H8800]
, as in obeying
H6963
the voice
H3068
of the LORD
H8085 [H8800]
? Behold, to obey
H2896
is better
H2077
than sacrifice
H7181 [H8687]
, and to hearken
H2459
than the fat
H352
of rams.
