God's Word Translation

1 Samuel 15:4-8 God's Word Translation (GW)

4. Saul organized the troops, and he counted them at Telaim: 200,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 men from Judah.

5. Saul went to the city of Amalek and set an ambush in the valley.

6. Then Saul said to the Kenites, “Get away from the Amalekites so that I won’t destroy you with them. You were kind to all the Israelites when they came from Egypt.” So the Kenites left the Amalekites.

7. Saul attacked the Amalekites from Havilah to Shur, east of Egypt.

8. He captured King Agag of Amalek alive. But he claimed all the people for God by destroying them.
