15 And Saul said, “They have brought them from the Amalekites; afor the people spared the best of the sheep and the oxen, to sacrifice to the Lord your God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.”
16 Then Samuel said to Saul, “Be quiet! And I will tell you what the Lord said to me last night.” And he said to him, “Speak on.”
17 So Samuel said, a“When you were little in your own eyes, were you not head of the tribes of Israel? And did not the Lord anoint you king over Israel?
18 Now the Lord sent you on a mission, and said, ‘Go, and utterly destroy the sinners, the Amalekites, and fight against them until they are1 consumed.’
19 Why then did you not obey the voice of the Lord? Why did you swoop down on the1 spoil, and do evil in the sight of the Lord?”
