1 Samuel 15:3 in Context — 1 Samuel 15

1 Samuel dit à Saül: C’est moi que l’Éternel a envoyé pour t’oindre roi sur son peuple, sur Israël: écoute donc ce que dit l’Éternel.

2 Ainsi parle l’Éternel des armées: Je me souviens de ce qu’Amalek fit à Israël, lorsqu’il lui ferma le chemin à sa sortie d’Égypte.

3 Va maintenant, frappe Amalek, et dévouez par interdit tout ce qui lui appartient; tu ne l’épargneras point, et tu feras mourir hommes et femmes, enfants et nourrissons, bœufs et brebis, chameaux et ânes.

4 Saül convoqua le peuple, et en fit la revue à Thelaïm: il y avait deux cent mille hommes de pied, et dix mille hommes de Juda.

5 Saül marcha jusqu’à la ville d’Amalek, et mit une embuscade dans la vallée.
