1 Samuel 15:18-24
New International Version
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(A) and do evil in the eyes of the Lord?”
20 “But I did obey(B) 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,(C)
and to heed is better than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is like the sin of divination,(D)
and arrogance like the evil of idolatry.
Because you have rejected(E) the word of the Lord,
he has rejected you as king.”
24 Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned.(F) I violated(G) the Lord’s command and your instructions. I was afraid(H) of the men and so I gave in to them.

3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.(A)
