1 Samuel 15:1-6

1SamuelH8050 also saidH559 unto SaulH7586, YhwhH3068 sentH7971 me to anointH4886 thee to be kingH4428 over his peopleH5971, over IsraelH3478: now therefore hearkenH8085 thou unto the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697 of YhwhH3068. 2Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068 of ArmiesH6635, I rememberH6485 that which AmalekH6002 didH6213 to IsraelH3478, how he laidH7760 wait for him in the wayH1870, when he came upH5927 from EgyptH4714. 3Now goH3212 and smiteH5221 AmalekH6002, and utterly destroyH2763 all that they have, and spareH2550 them not; but slayH4191 both manH376 and womanH802, infantH5768 and sucklingH3243, oxH7794 and sheepH7716, camelH1581 and donkeyH2543. 4And SaulH7586 gatheredH8085 the peopleH5971 togetherH8085, and numberedH6485 them in TelaimH2923, two hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 of JudahH3063. 5And SaulH7586 cameH935 to a cityH5892 of AmalekH6002, and laid waitH693H7378 in the valleyH5158.1

6And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the KenitesH7017, GoH3212, departH5493, get you downH3381 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6002, lest I destroyH622 you with them: for ye shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 to all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714. So the KenitesH7017 departedH5493 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6003.
