1 Samuel 15:19-21
New English Translation
19 Why haven’t you obeyed[a] the Lord? Instead you have greedily rushed upon the plunder! You have done what is wrong in the Lord’s estimation.”[b]
20 Then Saul said to Samuel, “But I have obeyed[c] the Lord! I went on the campaign[d] the Lord sent me on. I brought back King Agag of the Amalekites after exterminating the Amalekites. 21 But the army took from the plunder some of the sheep and cattle—the best of what was to be slaughtered—to sacrifice to the Lord your God in Gilgal.”
