1 Samuel 15:11 in Context — 1 Samuel 15

9 Mais Saül et le peuple épargnèrent Agag, et les meilleures brebis, les meilleurs bœufs, les meilleures bêtes de la seconde portée, les agneaux gras, et tout ce qu’il y avait de bon; ils ne voulurent pas le dévouer par interdit, et ils dévouèrent seulement tout ce qui était méprisable et chétif.

10 L’Éternel adressa la parole à Samuel, et lui dit:

11 Je me repens d’avoir établi Saül pour roi, car il se détourne de moi et il n’observe point mes paroles. Samuel fut irrité, et il cria à l’Éternel toute la nuit.

12 Il se leva de bon matin, pour aller au-devant de Saül. Et on vint lui dire: Saül est allé à Carmel, et voici, il s’est érigé un monument; puis il s’en est retourné, et, passant plus loin, il est descendu à Guilgal.

13 Samuel se rendit auprès de Saül, et Saül lui dit: Sois béni de l’Éternel! J’ai observé la parole de l’Éternel.
