1 Samuel 15:9 in Context — 1 Samuel 15
7 Saül battit Amalek depuis Havila jusqu’à Schur, qui est en face de l’Égypte.
8 Il prit vivant Agag, roi d’Amalek, et il dévoua par interdit tout le peuple en le passant au fil de l’épée.
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.
