1 Samuel 15:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ So Saul struck the Amalekites from Havilah (as you come to Shur, that is before Egypt),

⁸ and took Agag, the king of the Amalekites, alive and destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.

⁹ But Saul and the people spared Agag and the better sheep and the oxen and the fat beasts and the lambs and all that was good; and they would not destroy them. But everything that was vile and worth nothing, that they destroyed.
