1 Samuel 15:7-9
English Standard Version
7 (A)And Saul defeated the Amalekites from (B)Havilah as far as (C)Shur, which is east of Egypt. 8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive (D)and devoted to destruction all the people with the edge of the sword. 9 (E)But Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep and of the oxen and of the fattened calves[a] and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them. All that was despised and worthless they devoted to destruction.
