31 Then Samuel went back, following Saul, and Saul bowed down to the Lord.

32 Samuel said, “Bring me King Agag of Amalek.”

Agag came to him trembling,[a] for he thought, “Certainly the bitterness of death has come.”[b][c]

so your mother will be childless among women.(A)

Then he hacked Agag to pieces before the Lord at Gilgal.
