H0853–אֵת–et

And Samuel said to Saul, The Lord sent me to put the holy oil on you and to make you king over his people, over Israel: so give ear now to the words of the Lord.

אֹתִ֨י (אֹתִ֨) 'o.T “<obj.>”

The Lord of armies says, I will give punishment to Amalek for what he did to Israel, fighting against him on the way when Israel came out of Egypt.

אֵ֛ת 'et “<obj.>”

Go now and put Amalek to the sword, putting to the curse all they have, without mercy: put to death every man and woman, every child and baby at the breast, every ox and sheep, camel and ass.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul sent for the people and had them numbered in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen and ten thousand men of Judah.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul made an attack on the Amalekites from Havilah on the road to Shur, which is before Egypt.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

He took Agag, king of the Amalekites, prisoner, and put all the people to the sword without mercy.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

But Saul and the people did not put Agag to death, and they kept the best of the sheep and the oxen and the fat beasts and the lambs, and whatever was good, not desiring to put them to the curse: but everything which was bad and of no use they put to the

אֹתָ֥הּ (אֹתָ֥) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

It is no longer my pleasure for Saul to be king; for he is turned back from going in my ways, and has not done my orders. And Samuel was very sad, crying to the Lord in prayer all night.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And Samuel came to Saul; and Saul said to him, May the blessing of the Lord be with you: I have done what was ordered by the Lord.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul said, They have taken them from the Amalekites: for the people have kept the best of the sheep and of the oxen as an offering to the Lord your God; all the rest we have given up to destruction.

וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Then Samuel said to Saul, Say no more! Let me give you word of what the Lord has said to me this night. And he said to him, Say on.

אֵת֩ 'et “<obj.>”

And the Lord sent you on a journey and said, Go and put to the curse those sinners, the Amalekites, fighting against them till every one is dead.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֹתָֽם׃ (אֹתָֽ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

And Saul said, Truly, I have done the orders of the Lord and have gone the way the Lord sent me; I have taken Agag, the king of Amalek, and have given the Amalekites up to destruction.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

For to go against his orders is like the sin of those who make use of secret arts, and pride is like giving worship to images. Because you have put away from you the word of the Lord, he has put you from your place as king.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul said to Samuel, Great is my sin: for I have gone against the orders of the Lord and against your words: because, fearing the people, I did what they said.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

So now, let my sin have forgiveness, and go back with me to give worship to the Lord.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel said to Saul, I will not go back with you: for you have put away from you the word of the Lord, and the Lord has put you from your place as king over Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel said to him, The Lord has taken away the kingdom of Israel from you this day by force, and has given it to a neighbour of yours who is better than you.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then Samuel said, Make Agag, the king of the Amalekites, come here to me. And Agag came to him shaking with fear. And Agag said, Truly the pain of death is past.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel said, As your sword has made women without children, so now your mother will be without children among women. And Agag was cut up by Samuel, bone from bone, before the Lord in Gilgal.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel never saw Saul again till the day of his death; but Samuel was sorrowing for Saul: and it was no longer the Lord's pleasure for Saul to be king over Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And send for Jesse to be present at the offering, and I will make clear to you what you are to do: and you are to put the holy oil on him whose name I give you.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”אֵ֥ת 'et “<obj.>”

And Samuel did as the Lord said and came to Beth-lehem. And the responsible men of the town came out to him in fear and said, Do you come in peace?

אֵ֚ת 'et “<obj.>”

And he said, In peace: I have come to make an offering to the Lord: make yourselves clean and come with me to make the offering. And he made Jesse and his sons clean, and sent for them to be present at the offering.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Now when they came, looking at Eliab, he said, Clearly the man of the Lord's selection is before him.
