1 Samuel 15:21-23
Legacy Standard Bible
21 But (A)the people took some of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the choicest of the things devoted to destruction, to sacrifice to Yahweh your God at Gilgal.” 22 And Samuel said,
“(B)Has Yahweh as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As in obeying the voice of Yahweh?
Behold, (C)to obey is better than sacrifice,
And to heed than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of (D)divination,
And insubordination is as (E)wickedness and idolatry.
Because you have rejected the word of Yahweh,
(F)He has also rejected you from being king.”
