And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Say on{H1696}{(H8761)}. 17 And Samuel{H8050} said{H559}{(H8799)}, When thou wast little{H6996} in thine own sight{H5869}, wast thou not made the head{H7218} of the tribes{H7626} of Israel{H3478}, and the LORD{H3068} anointed{H4886}{(H8799)} thee king{H4428} over Israel{H3478}? 18 And the LORD{H3068} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} thee on a journey{H1870}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Go{H3212}{(H8798)} and utterly destroy{H2763}{(H8689)} the sinners{H2400} the Amalekites{H6002}, and fight{H3898}{(H8738)} against them until they be consumed{H3615}{(H8763)}. 19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey{H8085}{(H8804)} the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068}, but didst fly{H5860}{(H8799)} upon the spoil{H7998}, and didst{H6213}{(H8799)} evil{H7451} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}? 20 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Samuel{H8050}, Yea, I have obeyed{H8085}{(H8804)} the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068}, and have gone{H3212}{(H8799)} the way{H1870} which the LORD{H3068} sent{H7971}{(H8804)} me, and have brought{H935}{(H8686)} Agag{H90} the king{H4428} of Amalek{H6002}, and have utterly destroyed{H2763}{(H8689)} the Amalekites{H6002}. 21 But the people{H5971} took{H3947}{(H8799)} of the spoil{H7998}, sheep{H6629} and oxen{H1241}, the chief{H7225} of the things which should have been utterly destroyed{H2764}, to sacrifice{H2076}{(H8800)} unto the LORD{H3068} thy God{H430} in Gilgal{H1537}. 22 And Samuel{H8050} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Hath the LORD{H3068} as great delight{H2656} in burnt offerings{H5930} and sacrifices{H2077}, as in obeying{H8085}{(H8800)} the voice{H6963} of the LORD{H3068}? Behold, to obey{H8085}{(H8800)} is better{H2896} than sacrifice{H2077}, and to hearken{H7181}{(H8687)} than the fat{H2459} of rams{H352}. 23 For rebellion{H4805} is as the sin{H2403} of witchcraft{H7081}, and stubbornness{H6484}{(H8687)} is as iniquity{H205} and idolatry{H8655}. Because thou hast rejected{H3988}{(H8804)} the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}, he hath also rejected{H3988}{(H8799)} thee from being king{H4428}. 24 And Saul{H7586} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Samuel{H8050}, I have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)}: for I have transgressed{H5674}{(H8804)} the commandment{H6310} of the LORD{H3068}, and thy words{H1697}: because I feared{H3372}{(H8804)} the people{H5971}, and obeyed{H8085}{(H8799)} their voice{H6963}. 25 Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon{H5375}{(H8798)} my sin{H2403}, and turn again{H7725}{(H8798)} with me, that I may worship{H7812}{(H8691)} the LORD{H3068}. 26 And Samuel{H8050} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Saul{H7586}, I will not return{H7725}{(H8799)} with thee: for thou hast rejected{H3988}{(H8804)} the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}, and the LORD{H3068} hath rejected{H3988}{(H8799)} thee from being king{H4428} over Israel{H3478}. 27 And as Samuel{H8050} turned about{H5437}{(H8735)} to go away{H3212}{(H8800)}, he laid hold{H2388}{(H8686)} upon the skirt{H3671} of his mantle{H4598}, and it rent{H7167}{(H8735)}. 28 And Samuel{H8050} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, The LORD{H3068} hath rent{H7167}{(H8804)} the kingdom{H4468} of Israel{H3478} from thee this day{H3117}, and hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} it to a neighbour{H7453} of thine, that is better{H2896} than thou. 29 And also the Strength{H5331} of Israel{H3478} will not lie{H8266}{(H8762)} nor repent{H5162}{(H8735)}: for he is not a man{H120}, that he should repent{H5162}{(H8736)}. 30 Then he said{H559}{(H8799)}, I have sinned{H2398}{(H8804)}: yet honour{H3513}{(H8761)} me now, I pray thee, before the elders{H2205} of my people{H5971}, and before Israel{H3478}, and turn again{H7725}{(H8798)} with me, that I may worship{H7812}{(H8694)} the LORD{H3068} thy God{H430}. 31 So Samuel{H8050} turned again{H7725}{(H8799)} after{H310} Saul{H7586}; and Saul{H7586} worshipped{H7812}{(H8691)} the LORD{H3068}. 32 Then said{H559}{(H8799)} Samuel{H8050}, Bring ye hither{H5066}{(H8685)} to me Agag{H90} the king{H4428} of the Amalekites{H6002}. And Agag{H90} came{H3212}{(H8799)} unto him delicately{H4574}. And Agag{H90} said{H559}{(H8799)}, Surely{H403} the bitterness{H4751} of death{H4194} is past{H5493}{(H8804)}. 33 And Samuel{H8050} said{H559}{(H8799)}, As thy sword{H2719} hath made women{H802} childless{H7921}{(H8765)}, so shall thy mother{H517} be childless{H7921}{(H8799)} among women{H802}. And Samuel{H8050} hewed{H8158} Agag{H90} in pieces{H8158}{(H8762)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068} in Gilgal{H1537}. 34 Then Samuel{H8050} went{H3212}{(H8799)} to Ramah{H7414}; and Saul{H7586} went up{H5927}{(H8804)} to his house{H1004} to Gibeah{H1390} of Saul{H7586}. 35 And Samuel{H8050} came no more{H3254}{(H8804)} to see{H7200}{(H8800)} Saul{H7586} until the day{H3117} of his death{H4194}: nevertheless{H3588} Samuel{H8050} mourned{H56}{(H8694)} for Saul{H7586}: and the LORD{H3068} repented{H5162}{(H8738)} that he had made Saul{H7586} king{H4427}{(H8689)} over Israel{H3478}.
