⁸ And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive ^(A)and devoted to destruction all the people with the edge of the sword. ^9 (B)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.
