1 Samuel 15:1 (MKJV) Modern King James Version

1 And Samuel said to Saul, Jehovah sent me to anoint you to be king over His people, over Israel. And now listen to the voice of the words of Jehovah.
2 So says Jehovah of Hosts, I will visit Amalek with what he did to Israel, how he set against him in the way when he came up from Egypt.
3 Now go and strike Amalek, and completely destroy all that they have, and do not spare them. But kill both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
4 And Saul gathered the people together and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek and lay in wait in the valley.
6 And Saul said to the Kenites, Go! Depart! Get down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them. For you showed kindness to all the sons of Israel when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7 And Saul struck the Amalekites from Havilah, as you come to Shur, which is over across from Egypt.
8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive. And he completely destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9 But Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep and of the oxen and of the fatlings and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not completely destroy them. But everything that was vile and feeble they completely destroyed.
10 And the Word of Jehovah came to Samuel saying,
11 It repents Me that I have set up Saul to be king. For he has turned back from following Me and has not done My commands. And it grieved Samuel, and he cried out to Jehovah all night.
12 And when Samuel rose up early in the morning to meet Saul, it was told to Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and behold, he set up a place for himself, and has gone around and passed on and gone down to Gilgal.
13 And Samuel came to Saul. And Saul said to him, You are blessed of Jehovah. I have done the command of Jehovah.
14 And Samuel said, What then is this bleating of the flock in my ears? And what is the sound of the herd which I hear?
15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites. For the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen to sacrifice to Jehovah your God. And the rest we have completely destroyed.
16 And Samuel said to Saul, Stop! And I will tell you what Jehovah has said to me tonight. And he said to him, Speak.
17 And Samuel said, When you were little in your own sight, did you not become the head of the tribes of Israel? And Jehovah anointed you king over Israel.
18 And Jehovah sent you on the way and said, Go and completely destroy the sinners, Amalek, and fight against them until you destroy them.
19 Why then did you not obey the voice of Jehovah? Why did you fly on the spoil and do evil in the sight of Jehovah?
20 And Saul said to Samuel, Yes, I have obeyed the voice of Jehovah, and have gone the way which Jehovah sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have completely destroyed the Amalekites.
21 But the people took from the spoil, of the flocks and herd, the best of the things devoted to sacrifice to Jehovah your God in Gilgal.
22 And Samuel said, Does Jehovah delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of Jehovah? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice! To listen is better than the fat of rams!
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idol-worship. Because you have rejected the Word of Jehovah, He has also rejected you from being king!
24 And Saul said to Samuel, I have sinned. For I have disobeyed the command of Jehovah, and your word, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.
25 And now please pardon my sin and turn again with me so that I may worship Jehovah.
26 And Samuel said to Saul, I will not return with you, for you have rejected the Word of Jehovah, and Jehovah has rejected you from being king over Israel.
27 And Samuel turned around to go, and he laid hold on the skirt of his robe, and it tore.
28 And Samuel said to him, Jehovah has torn the kingdom of Israel from you this day, and has given it to a neighbor of yours who is better than you.
29 And also the Glory of Israel will not lie nor repent, for He is not a man that He should repent.
30 Then he said, I have sinned. Please honor me now before the elders of my people and before Israel, and turn again with me. And I shall worship Jehovah your God.
31 And Samuel turned again after Saul, and Saul worshiped Jehovah.
32 And Samuel said, Bring here to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came to him daintily. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.
33 And Samuel said, As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women. And Samuel cut Agag in pieces before Jehovah in Gilgal.
34 And Samuel went to Ramah. And Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
35 And Samuel never again saw Saul until the day of his death, for Samuel mourned for Saul. And Jehovah repented that He had made Saul king over Israel.
1 Samuel H8050 also said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Saul H7586 , The LORD H3068 EDS sent H7971 VQQ3MS me to anoint H4886 thee to be king H4428 L-CMS over H5921 PREP his people H5971 , over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 : now H6258 W-ADV therefore hearken H8085 VQI2MS thou unto the voice H6963 L-CMS of the words H1697 CMP of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
2 Thus H3541 saith H559 VQQ3MS the LORD H3068 EDS of hosts H6635 , I remember H6485 that which H834 RPRO Amalek H6002 did H6213 VQQ3MS to Israel H3478 , how H834 RPRO he laid H7760 VQQ3MS wait for him in the way H1870 , when he came up H5927 from Egypt H4714 .
3 Now H6258 ADV go H1980 VQI2MS and smite H5221 Amalek H6002 , and utterly destroy H2763 all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO they have , and spare H2550 them not H3808 W-NPAR ; but slay H4191 both man H376 M-NMS and H5704 PREP woman H802 NFS , infant H5768 and suckling H3243 , ox H7794 and sheep H7716 , camel H1581 and ass H2543 .
4 And Saul H7586 gathered the people together H8085 , and numbered H6485 them in Telaim H2923 , two hundred H3967 MFD thousand H505 W-BMS footmen H7273 , and ten H6235 thousand H505 MMP men H376 NMS of Judah H3063 .
5 And Saul H7586 came H935 W-VQY3MS to H5704 PREP a city H5892 GFS of Amalek H6002 , and laid wait H693 in the valley H5158 .
6 And Saul H7586 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP the Kenites H7017 , Go H1980 VQI2MP , depart H5493 , get you down H3381 from among H8432 the Amalekites H6002 , lest H6435 CONJ I destroy H622 you with H5973 PREP-3MS them : for ye H859 W-PPRO-2MS showed H6213 kindness H2617 NMS to H5973 PREP all H3605 NMS the children H1121 of Israel H3478 , when they came up H5927 out of Egypt H4714 . So the Kenites H7017 departed H5493 W-VHY3MS from among H8432 the Amalekites H6003 .
7 And Saul H7586 smote H5221 W-VHY3MS the Amalekites H6002 from Havilah H2341 until thou comest H935 to Shur H7793 , that H834 RPRO is over H5921 PREP against H6440 CMP Egypt H4714 .
8 And he took H8610 Agag H90 the king H4428 NMS of the Amalekites H6002 alive H2416 AMS , and utterly destroyed H2763 all H3605 NMS the people H5971 with the edge H6310 L-CMS of the sword H2719 GFS .
9 But Saul H7586 and the people H5971 spared H2550 Agag H90 , and the best H4315 of the sheep H6629 , and of the oxen H1241 , and of the fatlings H4932 , and the lambs H3733 , and all H3605 NMS that was good H2896 D-NMS , and would H14 VQQ3MP not H3808 W-NPAR utterly destroy H2763 them : but every H3605 NMS thing H4399 that was vile H5240 and refuse H4549 , that they destroyed utterly H2763 .
10 Then came H1961 W-VPY3MS the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS unto H413 PREP Samuel H8050 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
11 It repenteth me H5162 VNQ1MS that H3588 CONJ I have set up H4427 Saul H7586 to be king H4428 L-CMS : for H3588 CONJ he is turned back H7725 VQQ3MS from following H310 me , and hath not H3808 NADV performed H6965 my commandments H1697 CMP-1MS . And it grieved H2734 W-VQY3MS Samuel H8050 ; and he cried H2199 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS all H3605 NMS night H3915 .
12 And when Samuel H8050 rose early H7925 to meet H7125 Saul H7586 in the morning H1242 B-NMS , it was told H5046 Samuel H8050 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Saul H7586 came H935 to Carmel H3760 , and , behold H2009 IJEC , he set him up H5324 a place H3027 NFS , and is gone about H5437 , and passed on H5674 , and gone down H3381 W-VQY3MS to Gilgal H1537 .
13 And Samuel H8050 came H935 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Saul H7586 : and Saul H7586 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Blessed H1288 VWQ3MS be thou H859 PPRO-2MS of the LORD H3068 L-EDS : I have performed H6965 the commandment H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS .
14 And Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 W-IGAT meaneth then this H2088 D-PMS bleating H6963 of the sheep H6629 in mine ears H241 , and the lowing H6963 W-CMS of the oxen H1241 D-NMS which H834 RPRO I H595 PPRO-1MS hear H8085 ?
15 And Saul H7586 said H559 W-VQY3MS , They have brought H935 them from the Amalekites H6003 : for H834 RPRO the people H5971 spared H2550 the best H4315 of the sheep H6629 and of the oxen H1241 , to sacrifice H2076 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS ; and the rest H3498 we have utterly destroyed H2763 .
16 Then Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Saul H7586 , Stay H7503 , and I will tell H5046 thee what H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath said H1696 VPQ3MS to H413 PREP me this night H3915 AMS . And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , Say on H1696 .
17 And Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS , When H518 PART thou H859 PPRO-2MS wast little H6996 AMS in thine own sight H5869 , wast thou H859 PPRO-2FS not H3808 D-NPAR made the head H7218 NMS of the tribes H7626 of Israel H3478 , and the LORD H3068 EDS anointed H4886 thee king H4428 L-CMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 LMS ?
18 And the LORD H3068 EDS sent H7971 thee on a journey H1870 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Go H1980 VQI2MS and utterly destroy H2763 the sinners H2400 the Amalekites H6002 , and fight H3898 against them until H5704 PREP they be consumed H3615 .
19 Wherefore H4100 WL-IGAT then didst thou not H3808 NADV obey H8085 VQQ2MS the voice H6963 B-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , but didst fly H5860 upon H413 PREP the spoil H7998 , and didst H6213 evil H7451 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS ?
20 And Saul H7586 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Samuel H8050 , Yea H834 RPRO , I have obeyed H8085 VQQ1MS the voice H6963 B-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and have gone H1980 the way H1870 which H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS sent H7971 me , and have brought H935 Agag H90 the king H4428 NMS of Amalek H6002 , and have utterly destroyed H2763 the Amalekites H6002 .
21 But the people H5971 took H3947 W-VQY3MS of the spoil H7998 , sheep H6629 NMS and oxen H1241 W-NMS , the chief H7225 CFS of the things which should have been utterly destroyed H2764 , to sacrifice H2076 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS in Gilgal H1537 .
22 And Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Hath the LORD H3068 L-EDS as great delight H2656 D-NMS in burnt offerings H5930 and sacrifices H2077 , as in obeying H8085 the voice H6963 B-NMS of the LORD H3068 EDS ? Behold H2009 IJEC , to obey H8085 is better H2896 AMS than sacrifice H2077 , and to hearken H7181 L-VHFC than the fat H2459 of rams H352 .
23 For H3588 CONJ rebellion H4805 is as the sin H2403 of witchcraft H7081 , and stubbornness H6484 is as iniquity H205 and idolatry H8655 . Because H3282 ADV thou hast rejected H3988 VQQ2MS the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , he hath also rejected H3988 thee from being king H4428 .
24 And Saul H7586 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Samuel H8050 , I have sinned H2398 VQQ1MS : for H3588 CONJ I have transgressed H5674 the commandment H6310 of the LORD H3068 EDS , and thy words H1697 : because H3588 CONJ I feared H3372 the people H5971 , and obeyed H8085 their voice H6963 .
25 Now H6258 W-ADV therefore , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , pardon H5375 VQI2MS my sin H2403 , and turn again H7725 with H5973 me , that I may worship H7812 the LORD H3068 L-NAME-4MS .
26 And Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Saul H7586 , I will not H3808 NADV return H7725 VQY1MS with H5973 PREP-2FS thee : for H3588 CONJ thou hast rejected H3988 the word H1697 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and the LORD H3068 EDS hath rejected H3988 thee from being king H4428 NMS over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 LMS .
27 And as Samuel H8050 turned about H5437 to go away H1980 L-VQFC , he laid hold H2388 upon the skirt H3671 of his mantle H4598 , and it rent H7167 .
28 And Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , The LORD H3068 EDS hath rent H7167 the kingdom H4468 of Israel H3478 from thee this day H3117 D-AMS , and hath given H5414 it to a neighbor H7453 of thine , that is better H2896 D-NMS than H4480 M-PPRO-2MS thou .
29 And also H1571 W-CONJ the Strength H5331 of Israel H3478 will not H3808 NADV lie H8266 nor H3808 W-NADV repent H5162 : for H3588 CONJ he is not H3808 NADV a man H120 NMS , that he H1931 PPRO-3MS should repent H5162 .
30 Then he said H559 W-VQY3MS , I have sinned H2398 VQQ1MS : yet honor H3513 me now H6258 ADV , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , before H5048 the elders H2205 of my people H5971 , and before H5048 Israel H3478 , and turn again H7725 with H5973 me , that I may worship H7812 the LORD H3068 L-EDS thy God H430 .
31 So Samuel H8050 turned again H7725 after H310 PREP Saul H7586 ; and Saul H7586 worshiped H7812 the LORD H3068 L-NAME-4MS .
32 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS Samuel H8050 , Bring ye hither H5066 to H413 PREP-1MS me Agag H90 the king H4428 NMS of the Amalekites H6002 . And Agag H90 came H1980 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS him delicately H4574 . And Agag H90 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Surely H403 ADV the bitterness H4751 AMS of death H4194 is past H5493 .
33 And Samuel H8050 said H559 W-VQY3MS , As H834 K-RPRO thy sword H2719 hath made women H802 GFP childless H7921 , so H3651 ADV shall thy mother H517 be childless H7921 among women H802 . And Samuel H8050 hewed Agag in pieces H8158 before H6440 L-CMP the LORD H3068 EDS in Gilgal H1537 .
34 Then Samuel H8050 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to Ramah H7414 ; and Saul H7586 went up H5927 to H413 PREP his house H1004 NMS-3MS to Gibeah H1390 of Saul H7586 .
35 And Samuel H8050 came no H3808 W-NPAR more H3254 to see H7200 L-VQFC Saul H7586 until H5704 PREP the day H3117 NMS of his death H4194 : nevertheless H3588 CONJ Samuel H8050 mourned H56 for H413 PREP Saul H7586 : and the LORD H3068 W-EDS repented H5162 that H3588 CONJ he had made Saul king H4427 over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 LMS .
