32 The people (A)pounced on the spoil and took sheep and oxen and calves and slaughtered them on the ground. And the people ate them (B)with the blood. 33 Then they told Saul, “Behold, the people are sinning against the Lord by eating (C)with the blood.” And he said, “You have dealt treacherously; roll a great stone to me here.”[a] 34 And Saul said, “Disperse yourselves among the people and say to them, ‘Let every man bring his ox or his sheep and slaughter them here and eat, and do not sin against the Lord by eating with the blood.’” So every one of the people brought his ox with him that night and they slaughtered them there.

New International Version
32 They pounced on the plunder(A) and, taking sheep, cattle and calves, they butchered them on the ground and ate them, together with the blood.(B) 33 Then someone said to Saul, “Look, the men are sinning against the Lord by eating meat that has blood(C) in it.”
“You have broken faith,” he said. “Roll a large stone over here at once.” 34 Then he said, “Go out among the men and tell them, ‘Each of you bring me your cattle and sheep, and slaughter them here and eat them. Do not sin against the Lord by eating meat with blood still(D) in it.’”
So everyone brought his ox that night and slaughtered it there.
