Saul said to the Kenites, “Go, leave, go down from the Amalekites, so that I do not destroy you along with them; for you showed kindness to all the Israelites when they went up from Egypt.” So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.

Saul defeated the Amalekites, from Havilah as far as Shur, which is east of Egypt.

He captured Agag the king of the Amalekites alive, though he totally destroyed all [the rest of] the people with the sword.

Saul said, “They have brought them from the Amalekites, for the people spared the best of the sheep and oxen to sacrifice to the Lord your God; but the rest we have destroyed completely.”
