SamuelH8050 also saidH559 unto SaulH7586, The LORDH3068 sentH7971 me to anointH4886 thee to be kingH4428 over his peopleH5971, over IsraelH3478: now therefore hearkenH8085 thou unto the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I rememberH6485 that which AmalekH6002 didH6213 to IsraelH3478, how he laidH7760 wait for him in the wayH1870, when he came upH5927 from EgyptH4714.
Now goH3212 and smiteH5221 AmalekH6002, and utterly destroyH2763 all that they have, and spareH2550 them not; but slayH4191 both manH376 and womanH802, infantH5768 and sucklingH3243, oxH7794 and sheepH7716, camelH1581 and assH2543.
And SaulH7586 gatheredH8085 the peopleH5971 togetherH8085, and numberedH6485 them in TelaimH2923, two hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 of JudahH3063.
And SaulH7586 cameH935 to a cityH5892 of AmalekH6002, and laid waitH7378+H693 in the valleyH5158. {laid…: or, fought}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the KenitesH7017, GoH3212, departH5493, get you downH3381 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6002, lest I destroyH622 you with them: for ye shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 to all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714. So the KenitesH7017 departedH5493 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6003.
And SaulH7586 smoteH5221 the AmalekitesH6002 from HavilahH2341 until thou comestH935 to ShurH7793, that is over againstH6440 EgyptH4714.
And he tookH8610 AgagH90 the kingH4428 of the AmalekitesH6002 aliveH2416, and utterly destroyedH2763 all the peopleH5971 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
But SaulH7586 and the peopleH5971 sparedH2550 AgagH90, and the bestH4315 of the sheepH6629, and of the oxenH1241, and of the fatlingsH4932, and the lambsH3733, and all that was goodH2896, and wouldH14 not utterly destroyH2763 them: but every thingH4399 that was vileH5240 and refuseH4549, that they destroyed utterlyH2763. {fatlings: or, second sort}
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto SamuelH8050, sayingH559,
It repentethH5162 me that I have set upH4427 SaulH7586 to be kingH4428: for he is turned backH7725 from followingH310 me, and hath not performedH6965 my commandmentsH1697. And it grievedH2734 SamuelH8050; and he criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068 all nightH3915.
And when SamuelH8050 rose earlyH7925 to meetH7125 SaulH7586 in the morningH1242, it was toldH5046 SamuelH8050, sayingH559, SaulH7586 cameH935 to CarmelH3760, and, behold, he set him upH5324 a placeH3027, and is gone aboutH5437, and passed onH5674, and gone downH3381 to GilgalH1537.
And SamuelH8050 cameH935 to SaulH7586: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto him, BlessedH1288 be thou of the LORDH3068: I have performedH6965 the commandmentH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, What meaneth then this bleatingH6963 of the sheepH6629 in mine earsH241, and the lowingH6963 of the oxenH1241 which I hearH8085?
And SaulH7586 saidH559, They have broughtH935 them from the AmalekitesH6003: for the peopleH5971 sparedH2550 the bestH4315 of the sheepH6629 and of the oxenH1241, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430; and the restH3498 we have utterly destroyedH2763.
Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, StayH7503, and I will tellH5046 thee what the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 to me this nightH3915. And he saidH559 unto him, Say onH1696.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, When thou wast littleH6996 in thine own sightH5869, wast thou not made the headH7218 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the LORDH3068 anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over IsraelH3478?
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 thee on a journeyH1870, and saidH559, GoH3212 and utterly destroyH2763 the sinnersH2400 the AmalekitesH6002, and fightH3898 against them until they be consumedH3615. {they…: Heb. they consume them}
Wherefore then didst thou not obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, but didst flyH5860 upon the spoilH7998, and didstH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068?
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, Yea, I have obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, and have goneH3212 the wayH1870 which the LORDH3068 sentH7971 me, and have broughtH935 AgagH90 the kingH4428 of AmalekH6002, and have utterly destroyedH2763 the AmalekitesH6002.
But the peopleH5971 tookH3947 of the spoilH7998, sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, the chiefH7225 of the things which should have been utterly destroyedH2764, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in GilgalH1537.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, Hath the LORDH3068 as great delightH2656 in burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificesH2077, as in obeyingH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068? Behold, to obeyH8085 is betterH2896 than sacrificeH2077, and to hearkenH7181 than the fatH2459 of ramsH352.
For rebellionH4805 is as the sinH2403 of witchcraftH7081, and stubbornnessH6484 is as iniquityH205 and idolatryH8655. Because thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, he hath also rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428. {witchcraft: Heb. divination}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, I have sinnedH2398: for I have transgressedH5674 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and thy wordsH1697: because I fearedH3372 the peopleH5971, and obeyedH8085 their voiceH6963.
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardonH5375 my sinH2403, and turn againH7725 with me, that I may worshipH7812 the LORDH3068.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, I will not returnH7725 with thee: for thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and the LORDH3068 hath rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
And as SamuelH8050 turned aboutH5437 to go awayH3212, he laid holdH2388 upon the skirtH3671 of his mantleH4598, and it rentH7167.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 hath rentH7167 the kingdomH4468 of IsraelH3478 from thee this dayH3117, and hath givenH5414 it to a neighbourH7453 of thine, that is betterH2896 than thou.
And also the StrengthH5331 of IsraelH3478 will not lieH8266 nor repentH5162: for he is not a manH120, that he should repentH5162. {Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory}
Then he saidH559, I have sinnedH2398: yet honourH3513 me now, I pray thee, before the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971, and before IsraelH3478, and turn againH7725 with me, that I may worshipH7812 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
So SamuelH8050 turned againH7725 afterH310 SaulH7586; and SaulH7586 worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068.
Then saidH559 SamuelH8050, Bring ye hitherH5066 to me AgagH90 the kingH4428 of the AmalekitesH6002. And AgagH90 cameH3212 unto him delicatelyH4574. And AgagH90 saidH559, SurelyH403 the bitternessH4751 of deathH4194 is pastH5493.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, As thy swordH2719 hath made womenH802 childlessH7921, so shall thy motherH517 be childlessH7921 among womenH802. And SamuelH8050 hewedH8158 AgagH90 in piecesH8158 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 in GilgalH1537.
Then SamuelH8050 wentH3212 to RamahH7414; and SaulH7586 went upH5927 to his houseH1004 to GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586.
And SamuelH8050 came no moreH3254 to seeH7200 SaulH7586 until the dayH3117 of his deathH4194: neverthelessH3588 SamuelH8050 mournedH56 for SaulH7586: and the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 that he had made SaulH7586 kingH4427 over IsraelH3478.
AndG1161 when they heardG191 it, they glorifiedG1392 the LordG2962, andG5037 saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou seestG2334, brotherG80, how manyG4214 thousandsG3461 of JewsG2453 there areG1526 whichG3588 believeG4100; andG2532 they areG5225 allG3956 zealousG2207 of the lawG3551:
AndG1161 they are informedG2727 ofG4012 theeG4675, thatG3754 thou teachestG1321 allG3956 the JewsG2453 which are amongG2596 the GentilesG1484 toG575 forsakeG646 MosesG3475, sayingG3004 that theyG846 oughtG4059 notG3361 to circumciseG4059 their childrenG5043, neitherG3366 to walkG4043 after the customsG1485.
WhatG5101 is itG2076 thereforeG3767? the multitudeG4128 mustG1163 needsG3843 come togetherG4905: forG1063 they will hearG191 thatG3754 thou art comeG2064.
DoG4160 thereforeG3767 thisG5124 thatG3739 we sayG3004 to theeG4671: WeG2254 haveG1526 fourG5064 menG435 which haveG2192 a vowG2171 onG1909 themG1438;
ThemG5128 takeG3880, and purify thyselfG48 withG4862 themG846, andG2532 be at chargesG1159 withG1909 themG846, thatG2443 they may shaveG3587 their headsG2776: andG2532 allG3956 may knowG1097 that those thingsG3754, whereofG3739 they were informedG2727 concerningG4012 theeG4675, areG2076 nothingG3762; butG235 that thou thyselfG846 alsoG2532 walkest orderlyG4748, and keepestG5442 the lawG3551.
AsG1161 touchingG4012 the GentilesG1484 which believeG4100, weG2249 have writtenG1989 and concludedG2919 that theyG846 observeG5083 noG3367 such thingG5108, save onlyG1508 that they keepG5442 themselvesG846 fromG5037 things offered to idolsG1494, andG2532 from bloodG129, andG2532 from strangledG4156, andG2532 from fornicationG4202.
ThenG5119 PaulG3972 tookG3880 the menG435, and the nextG2192 dayG2250 purifying himselfG48 withG4862 themG846 enteredG1524 intoG1519 the templeG2411, to signifyG1229 the accomplishmentG1604 of the daysG2250 of purificationG49, untilG2193 thatG3739 an offeringG4376 should be offeredG4374 forG5228 everyG1538 oneG1520 of themG846.
AndG2532 takeG1209 the helmetG4030 of salvationG4992, andG2532 the swordG3162 of the SpiritG4151, which isG3603 the wordG4487 of GodG2316:
