1 Samuel 15:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 And Saul said unto the [a]Kenites, Go, depart, and get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye showed [b]mercy to all the children of Israel, when they came up from Egypt: and the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7 So Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah, as thou comest to Shur, that is before Egypt,
8 And took Agag the King of the Amalekites alive, and destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
