1 Samuel 15:14-16

Contemporary English Version

¹⁴ “Then why,” Samuel asked, “do I hear sheep and cattle?”

¹⁵ “The army took them from the Amalekites,” Saul explained. “They kept the best sheep and cattle, so they could sacrifice them to the Lord your God. But we destroyed everything else.”

¹⁶ “Stop!” Samuel said. “Let me tell you what the Lord told me last night.”

“All right,” Saul answered.
