1 Samuel 15:1-3

1Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 toH413 SaulH7586, “The LORDH3068 sentH7971 meH853 to anoint youH4886 kingH4428 overH5921 His peopleH5971H5921 IsraelH3478. Now thereforeH6258, listenH8085H6963 to the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068. 2This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 saysH559: ‘I witnessedH6485 whatH834 the AmalekitesH6002 didH6213 to the IsraelitesH3478 whenH834 they opposedH7760 them on their wayH1870 upH5927 from EgyptH4714. 3NowH6258 goH1980 and attackH5221 the AmalekitesH6002 and devote to destructionH27631 allH3605 thatH834 belongs to them. Do notH3808 spareH2550 themH5921, but put to deathH4191 menH376 andH5704 womenH802, childrenH5768 andH5704 infantsH3243, oxenH7794 andH5704 sheepH7716, camelsH1581 andH5704 donkeysH2543.’”
