1 Samuel 15:12-14

New King James Version

¹² So when Samuel rose early in the morning to meet Saul, it was told Samuel, saying, “Saul went to ^(A)Carmel, and indeed, he set up a monument for himself; and he has gone on around, passed by, and gone down to Gilgal.” ¹³ Then Samuel went to Saul, and Saul said to him, ^(B)“Blessed are you of the Lord! I have performed the commandment of the Lord.”

¹⁴ But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of the sheep in my ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?”
