1 Samuel 15:21 in Context — 1 Samuel 15
19 Por que, pois, não ouviste a voz do SENHOR, mas em vez disso te voltaste ao despojo, e fizeste o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR?
20 E Saul respondeu a Samuel: Antes ouvi a voz do SENHOR, e fui à jornada que o SENHOR me enviou, e trouxe a Agague rei de Amaleque, e destruí aos amalequitas:
21 Mas o povo tomou do despojo ovelhas e vacas, as primícias do anátema, para sacrificá-las ao SENHOR teu Deus em Gilgal.
22 E Samuel disse: Tem o SENHOR tanto contentamento com os holocaustos e vítimas, como em obedecer às palavras do SENHOR? Certamente o obedecer é melhor que os sacrifícios; e o prestar atenção que a gordura dos carneiros:
23 Porque como pecado de adivinhação é a rebelião, e como ídolos e idolatria o infringir. Porquanto tu rejeitaste a palavra do SENHOR, ele também te rejeitou para que não sejas rei.
