1 Samuel 15:17-19

Legacy Standard Bible

¹⁷ And Samuel said, “Is it not true, ^(A)though you were little in your own eyes, you were made the head of the tribes of Israel? And Yahweh anointed you king over Israel, ¹⁸ and Yahweh sent you on a ^[a]mission and said, ‘^(B)Go and devote to destruction the sinners, the Amalekites, and fight against them until they are consumed.’ ¹⁹ Why then did you not ^[b]obey the voice of Yahweh, ^(C)but rushed upon the spoil and did what was evil in the eyes of Yahweh?”
