H0853–אֵת–et

And Samuel said to Saul, Jehovah sent *me* to anoint thee king over his people, over Israel: now therefore hearken to the voice of the words of Jehovah.

אֹתִ֨י (אֹתִ֨) 'o.T “<obj.>”

Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: I have considered what Amalek did to Israel, how he set himself against him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.

אֵ֛ת 'et “<obj.>”

Now go and smite Amalek, and destroy utterly all that they have, and spare them not, but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

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

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul smote Amalek from Havilah as thou comest to Shur, which is opposite to Egypt.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And he took Agag the king of Amalek alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.

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

And Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep and oxen, and beasts of the second bearing, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not devote them to destruction; but everything that was mean and weak, that they destroyed utterly.

אֹתָ֥הּ (אֹתָ֥) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king; for he is turned away from following me, and hath not fulfilled my words. And Samuel was much grieved; and he cried to Jehovah all night.

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

And Samuel came to Saul; and Saul said to him, Blessed art thou of Jehovah: I have fulfilled the word of Jehovah.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites, because the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice to Jehovah thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.

וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

And Samuel said to Saul, Stay, that I may tell thee what Jehovah has said to me this night. And he said to him, Say on.

אֵת֩ 'et “<obj.>”

And Jehovah sent thee on a way and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.

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

And Saul said to Samuel, I have indeed hearkened to the voice of Jehovah, and have gone the way which Jehovah sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

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

For rebellion is [ergänzt: as] the sin of divination, And selfwill is [ergänzt: as] iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, He hath also rejected thee from being king.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Saul said to Samuel, I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of Jehovah, and thy words; for I feared the people, and hearkened to their voice.

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

And now, I pray thee, forgive my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship Jehovah.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel said to Saul, I will not turn again with thee; for thou hast rejected the word of Jehovah, and Jehovah has rejected thee from being king over Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Then Samuel said to him, Jehovah has rent the kingdom of Israel from thee to-day, and has given it to thy neighbour, who is better than thou.

אֶֽת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel said, Bring ye near to me Agag the king of Amalek. And Agag came to him gaily. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel said, As thy sword has made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless above women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before Jehovah in Gilgal.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And Samuel saw Saul no more until the day of his death; for Samuel mourned over Saul; and Jehovah repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

And call Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will tell thee what thou shalt do; and thou shalt anoint unto me him whom I name unto thee.

אֵ֣ת 'et “<obj.>”אֵ֥ת 'et “<obj.>”

And Samuel did what Jehovah said, and came to Bethlehem. And the elders of the city came trembling to meet him, and said, Dost thou come peaceably?

אֵ֚ת 'et “<obj.>”

And he said, Peaceably: I am come to sacrifice to Jehovah. Hallow yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he hallowed Jesse and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.

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

And it came to pass when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely Jehovah's anointed is before him.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”
