Reina-Valera 1960
Saúl desobedece y es desechado
15 Después Samuel dijo a Saúl: Jehová me envió a que te ungiese por rey sobre su pueblo Israel;(A) ahora, pues, está atento a las palabras de Jehová. 2 Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos: Yo castigaré lo que hizo Amalec a Israel al oponérsele en el camino cuando subía de Egipto.(B) 3 Ve, pues, y hiere a Amalec, y destruye todo lo que tiene, y no te apiades de él; mata a hombres, mujeres, niños, y aun los de pecho, vacas, ovejas, camellos y asnos.
4 Saúl, pues, convocó al pueblo y les pasó revista en Telaim, doscientos mil de a pie, y diez mil hombres de Judá. 5 Y viniendo Saúl a la ciudad de Amalec, puso emboscada en el valle. 6 Y dijo Saúl a los ceneos: Idos, apartaos y salid de entre los de Amalec, para que no os destruya juntamente con ellos; porque vosotros mostrasteis misericordia a todos los hijos de Israel, cuando subían de Egipto. Y se apartaron los ceneos de entre los hijos de Amalec. 7 Y Saúl derrotó a los amalecitas desde Havila hasta llegar a Shur, que está al oriente de Egipto. 8 Y tomó vivo a Agag rey de Amalec, pero a todo el pueblo mató a filo de espada. 9 Y Saúl y el pueblo perdonaron a Agag, y a lo mejor de las ovejas y del ganado mayor, de los animales engordados, de los carneros y de todo lo bueno, y no lo quisieron destruir; mas todo lo que era vil y despreciable destruyeron.
10 Y vino palabra de Jehová a Samuel, diciendo: 11 Me pesa haber puesto por rey a Saúl, porque se ha vuelto de en pos de mí, y no ha cumplido mis palabras. Y se apesadumbró Samuel, y clamó a Jehová toda aquella noche. 12 Madrugó luego Samuel para ir a encontrar a Saúl por la mañana; y fue dado aviso a Samuel, diciendo: Saúl ha venido a Carmel, y he aquí se levantó un monumento, y dio la vuelta, y pasó adelante y descendió a Gilgal. 13 Vino, pues, Samuel a Saúl, y Saúl le dijo: Bendito seas tú de Jehová; yo he cumplido la palabra de Jehová. 14 Samuel entonces dijo: ¿Pues qué balido de ovejas y bramido de vacas es este que yo oigo con mis oídos? 15 Y Saúl respondió: De Amalec los han traído; porque el pueblo perdonó lo mejor de las ovejas y de las vacas, para sacrificarlas a Jehová tu Dios, pero lo demás lo destruimos. 16 Entonces dijo Samuel a Saúl: Déjame declararte lo que Jehová me ha dicho esta noche. Y él le respondió: Di.
17 Y dijo Samuel: Aunque eras pequeño en tus propios ojos, ¿no has sido hecho jefe de las tribus de Israel, y Jehová te ha ungido por rey sobre Israel? 18 Y Jehová te envió en misión y dijo: Ve, destruye a los pecadores de Amalec, y hazles guerra hasta que los acabes. 19 ¿Por qué, pues, no has oído la voz de Jehová, sino que vuelto al botín has hecho lo malo ante los ojos de Jehová? 20 Y Saúl respondió a Samuel: Antes bien he obedecido la voz de Jehová, y fui a la misión que Jehová me envió, y he traído a Agag rey de Amalec, y he destruido a los amalecitas. 21 Mas el pueblo tomó del botín ovejas y vacas, las primicias del anatema, para ofrecer sacrificios a Jehová tu Dios en Gilgal. 22 Y Samuel dijo: ¿Se complace Jehová tanto en los holocaustos y víctimas, como en que se obedezca a las palabras de Jehová? Ciertamente el obedecer es mejor que los sacrificios, y el prestar atención que la grosura de los carneros. 23 Porque como pecado de adivinación es la rebelión, y como ídolos e idolatría la obstinación. Por cuanto tú desechaste la palabra de Jehová, él también te ha desechado para que no seas rey.
24 Entonces Saúl dijo a Samuel: Yo he pecado; pues he quebrantado el mandamiento de Jehová y tus palabras, porque temí al pueblo y consentí a la voz de ellos. Perdona, pues, ahora mi pecado, 25 y vuelve conmigo para que adore a Jehová. 26 Y Samuel respondió a Saúl: No volveré contigo; porque desechaste la palabra de Jehová, y Jehová te ha desechado para que no seas rey sobre Israel. 27 Y volviéndose Samuel para irse, él se asió de la punta de su manto, y este se rasgó. 28 Entonces Samuel le dijo: Jehová ha rasgado hoy de ti el reino de Israel, y lo ha dado a un prójimo tuyo mejor que tú. 29 Además, el que es la Gloria de Israel no mentirá, ni se arrepentirá, porque no es hombre para que se arrepienta. 30 Y él dijo: Yo he pecado; pero te ruego que me honres delante de los ancianos de mi pueblo y delante de Israel, y vuelvas conmigo para que adore a Jehová tu Dios. 31 Y volvió Samuel tras Saúl, y adoró Saúl a Jehová.
32 Después dijo Samuel: Traedme a Agag rey de Amalec. Y Agag vino a él alegremente. Y dijo Agag: Ciertamente ya pasó la amargura de la muerte. 33 Y Samuel dijo: Como tu espada dejó a las mujeres sin hijos, así tu madre será sin hijo entre las mujeres. Entonces Samuel cortó en pedazos a Agag delante de Jehová en Gilgal.
34 Se fue luego Samuel a Ramá, y Saúl subió a su casa en Gabaa de Saúl. 35 Y nunca después vio Samuel a Saúl en toda su vida; y Samuel lloraba a Saúl; y Jehová se arrepentía de haber puesto a Saúl por rey sobre Israel.

Rat protiv Amalečana
15 Samuel je rekao Šaulu: »BOG me poslao da te pomažem za kralja nad njegovim narodom Izraelom. Zato sad slušaj što ti poručuje BOG.
2 Ovako govori BOG Svevladar: ‘Vidio sam što su činili Amalečani kad su presretali Izraelce na putu iz Egipta. 3 Stoga, sad kreni i napadni ih! Uništi sve što imaju. Ne štedi ih! Pobij svakog čovjeka i ženu, dijete i dojenče, vola i ovcu, devu i magarca.’«
4 Šaul je sazvao i postrojio vojsku u Telaimu. Bilo je dvjesto tisuća vojnika pješadije i deset tisuća ostalih vojnika, uključujući Judejce. 5 Uputio se prema gradu Amalečana i postavio zasjedu u dolini.
6 Šaul je poručio Kenijevcima: »Idite! Napustite Amalečane da vas ne uništim zajedno s njima jer ste iskazali naklonost Izraelcima kad su došli iz Egipta.«
Tako su se Kenijevci odvojili od Amalečana.
7 Šaul je porazio sve Amalečane od Havile do Šura, do same granice s Egiptom. 8 Amalečkog je kralja Agaga zarobio živog, a sav je narod pobio mačem. 9 Šaul i vojnici ostavili su Agaga na životu. Poštedjeli su i najbolje ovce, goveda i janjce. Sve što je vrijedilo, nisu željeli uništiti. Uništili su samo ono što je bilo bez ikakve vrijednosti.
Samuel govori Šaulu o grijehu
10 Tada je BOG progovorio Samuelu: 11 »Žao mi je što sam Šaula postavio za kralja. On me više ne slijedi i ne provodi ono što mu kažem.«
Samuel je bio ljut. Cijelu je noć vapio BOGU.
12 Rano ujutro Samuel je ustao i uputio se k Šaulu. No rečeno mu je: »Šaul je otišao u Karmel. Ondje je podigao spomenik sebi u čast. Potom je krenuo dalje u Gilgal.«
Samuel je otišao k Šaulu koji je baš bio prinosio dio plijena uzetog od Amalečana kao žrtvu Bogu.[a]
13 Šaul je pozdravio Samuela: »BOG te blagoslovio! Izvršio sam ono što mi je zapovjedio BOG.«
14 A Samuel je rekao: »Kakav je to onda zvuk? Zašto čujem blejanje ovaca i mukanje goveda?«
15 »Vojnici su ih dotjerali od Amalečana«, odvratio je Šaul. »Poštedjeli su najbolje ovce i goveda. Prinijet će ih kao žrtvu tvom BOGU. Sve smo ostalo potpuno uništili.«
16 »Stani!« rekao je tada Samuel Šaulu. »Reći ću ti što mi je noćas govorio BOG.«
A Šaul će: »Reci.«
17 »Kad si još o sebi mislio da si potpuno nevažan«, rekao je Samuel, »postao si poglavar izraelskih plemena. BOG te postavio za kralja nad Izraelom. 18 Sad te BOG poslao na zadatak. Rekao ti je: ‘Idi i potpuno uništi zle Amalečane. Bori se protiv njih sve dok ih ne dokrajčiš.’ 19 Zašto onda nisi poslušao BOGA? Postupio si krivo pred BOGOM samo zato što si htio zadržati plijen.«
20 A Šaul je odgovorio Samuelu: »Ali ja jesam poslušao BOGA! Otišao sam ondje gdje me poslao BOG. Zarobio sam kralja Agaga i pobio sve Amalečane. 21 Vojnici su uzeli plijen. Od onoga što je trebalo biti uništeno odvojili su najbolje ovce i goveda, da u Gilgalu prinesu žrtvu tvome BOGU.«
22 No Samuel je nato rekao:
»Što je BOGU draže:
klane i paljene žrtve
ili poslušnost?
Bolje je poslušati nego prinositi žrtve,
pokornost vrijedi više od ovnovog loja.
23 Neposluh je grijeh kao i vračanje,
tvrdoglavost je zla kao i štovanje idola.
Odbacio si BOŽJU riječ,
a on sad odbacuje tebe kao kralja.«
24 Šaul je tada priznao Samuelu: »Pogriješio sam. Prekršio sam BOŽJU zapovijed i tvoje upute. Bojao sam se ljudi i poslušao ih. 25 Molim te, oprosti mi ovaj grijeh. Vrati se sa mnom, da se mogu pokloniti pred BOGOM.«
26 No Samuel je odgovorio Šaulu: »Neću se s tobom vraćati. Ti si odbacio BOŽJU riječ, a sad BOG odbacuje tebe kao kralja nad Izraelom.«
27 Kad se Samuel okrenuo da ode, Šaul je zgrabio rub njegovog ogrtača i otkinuo komad tkanine.
28 »BOG je danas od tebe otkinuo izraelsko kraljevstvo«, rekao mu je Samuel. »Predat će ga jednom od tvojih bližnjih, koji je bolji od tebe. 29 Bog Izraela, koji živi zauvijek, ne laže i ne predomišlja se. On nije čovjek, da bi se predomislio.«
30 »Zgriješio sam«, odgovorio je Šaul. »Ali, molim te, iskaži mi čast pred starješinama naroda i pred Izraelcima. Vrati se sa mnom, a ja ću se pokloniti pred tvojim BOGOM.«
31 Tako se Samuel vratio prateći Šaula, a Šaul je iskazao štovanje BOGU.
32 Potom je Samuel rekao: »Dovedite mi Agaga, kralja Amalečana.«
Agag je stupio pred Samuela. Bio je vezan lancima. Mislio je: »Zaobišla me gorka smrt.«[b]
33 Samuel mu je rekao: »Kao što je tvoj mač ostavljao majke bez djece, tako će tvoja majka ostati bez svog djeteta.«
Sasjekao je Agaga na komade pred BOGOM u Gilgalu.
34 Potom je Samuel otišao u Ramu, a Šaul se vratio kući u Gibeu, koja se naziva Gibea Šaulova. 35 Sve do svoje smrti Samuel više nije vidio Šaula. Tugovao je zbog njega.
A BOGU je bilo žao što je Šaula postavio za kralja Izraela.

The Lord Rejects Saul as King
15 Samuel said to Saul, “I am the one the Lord sent to anoint(A) you king over his people Israel; so listen now to the message from the Lord. 2 This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites(B) for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. 3 Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally(C) destroy[a] all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”
4 So Saul summoned the men and mustered them at Telaim—two hundred thousand foot soldiers and ten thousand from Judah. 5 Saul went to the city of Amalek and set an ambush in the ravine. 6 Then he said to the Kenites,(D) “Go away, leave the Amalekites so that I do not destroy you along with them; for you showed kindness to all the Israelites when they came up out of Egypt.” So the Kenites moved away from the Amalekites.
7 Then Saul attacked the Amalekites(E) all the way from Havilah to Shur,(F) near the eastern border of Egypt. 8 He took Agag(G) king of the Amalekites alive,(H) and all his people he totally destroyed with the sword. 9 But Saul and the army spared(I) Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fat calves[b] and lambs—everything that was good. These they were unwilling to destroy completely, but everything that was despised and weak they totally destroyed.
10 Then the word of the Lord came to Samuel: 11 “I regret(J) that I have made Saul king, because he has turned(K) away from me and has not carried out my instructions.”(L) Samuel was angry,(M) and he cried out to the Lord all that night.
12 Early in the morning Samuel got up and went to meet Saul, but he was told, “Saul has gone to Carmel.(N) There he has set up a monument(O) in his own honor and has turned and gone on down to Gilgal.”
13 When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have carried out the Lord’s instructions.”
14 But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?”
15 Saul answered, “The soldiers brought them from the Amalekites; they spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we totally destroyed the rest.”
16 “Enough!” Samuel said to Saul. “Let me tell you what the Lord said to me last night.”
“Tell me,” Saul replied.
17 Samuel said, “Although you were once small(P) in your own eyes, did you not become the head of the tribes of Israel? The Lord anointed you king over Israel. 18 And he sent you on a mission, saying, ‘Go and completely destroy those wicked people, the Amalekites; wage war against them until you have wiped them out.’ 19 Why did you not obey the Lord? Why did you pounce on the plunder(Q) and do evil in the eyes of the Lord?”
20 “But I did obey(R) the Lord,” Saul said. “I went on the mission the Lord assigned me. I completely destroyed the Amalekites and brought back Agag their king. 21 The soldiers took sheep and cattle from the plunder, the best of what was devoted to God, in order to sacrifice them to the Lord your God at Gilgal.”
22 But Samuel replied:
“Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
as much as in obeying the Lord?
To obey is better than sacrifice,(S)
and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination,(T)
and arrogance like the evil of idolatry.
Because you have rejected(U) the word of the Lord,
he has rejected you as king.”
24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned.(V) I violated(W) the Lord’s command and your instructions. I was afraid(X) of the men and so I gave in to them. 25 Now I beg you, forgive(Y) my sin and come back with me, so that I may worship the Lord.”
26 But Samuel said to him, “I will not go back with you. You have rejected(Z) the word of the Lord, and the Lord has rejected you as king over Israel!”
27 As Samuel turned to leave, Saul caught hold of the hem of his robe,(AA) and it tore.(AB) 28 Samuel said to him, “The Lord has torn(AC) the kingdom(AD) of Israel from you today and has given it to one of your neighbors—to one better than you.(AE) 29 He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie(AF) or change(AG) his mind; for he is not a human being, that he should change his mind.”
30 Saul replied, “I have sinned.(AH) But please honor(AI) me before the elders of my people and before Israel; come back with me, so that I may worship the Lord your God.” 31 So Samuel went back with Saul, and Saul worshiped the Lord.
32 Then Samuel said, “Bring me Agag king of the Amalekites.”
Agag came to him in chains.[c] And he thought, “Surely the bitterness of death is past.”
33 But Samuel said,
“As your sword has made women childless,
so will your mother be childless among women.”(AJ)
And Samuel put Agag to death before the Lord at Gilgal.
34 Then Samuel left for Ramah,(AK) but Saul went up to his home in Gibeah(AL) of Saul. 35 Until the day Samuel(AM) died, he did not go to see Saul again, though Samuel mourned(AN) for him. And the Lord regretted(AO) that he had made Saul king over Israel.

King James Version
1 Samuel 15
King James Version
15 Samuel also said unto Saul, The Lord sent me to anoint thee to be king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken thou unto the voice of the words of the Lord.
2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.
3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.
4 And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
6 And Saul said unto the Kenites, Go, depart, get you down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them: for ye shewed kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to Shur, that is over against Egypt.
8 And he took Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.
9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
10 Then came the word of the Lord unto Samuel, saying,
11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the Lord all night.
12 And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.
13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the Lord: I have performed the commandment of the Lord.
14 And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?
15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the Lord thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
16 Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
17 And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the Lord anointed thee king over Israel?
18 And the Lord sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the Lord, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the Lord?
20 And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have gone the way which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
21 But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the Lord thy God in Gilgal.
22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, he hath also rejected thee from being king.
24 And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice.
25 Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord.
26 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
27 And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it rent.
28 And Samuel said unto him, The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to a neighbour of thine, that is better than thou.
29 And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent.
30 Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord thy God.
31 So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the Lord.
32 Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came unto him delicately. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.
33 And Samuel said, As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the Lord in Gilgal.
34 Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
35 And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
