And Saul heard and mustered the people in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand were men of Judah.

And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and lay in wait in a torrent-bed.

And Saul said to the Kenite, Go! Depart! Go out from the midst of Amalek, lest I destroy you with him. For you acted with kindness toward all the sons of Israel when they came up out of Egypt. And the Kenite departed from the midst of Amalek.

And Saul struck Amalek from Havilah, as you go to Shur, which is before Egypt.

And he captured Agag the king of Amalek alive. But he exterminated all the people with the mouth of the sword.

And Saul and the people had pity on Agag, and on the best of the flock, and of the herd, and the seconds, and the lambs, and all that was good, and were not willing to exterminate them. But they exterminated every despised and worthless thing.
