1 Samuel 15:8-9 ▼

8 He captured alive Agag king of Amalek, but he completely destroyed all the people, executing them with swords.

9 Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle—the fattened animals and lambs—along with all that was good. They were not willing to completely destroy them, but they did completely destroy everything that was worthless and inferior.
