1 Samuel 15:20-22
New American Standard Bible
20 Then Saul said to Samuel, “(A)I did obey the voice of the Lord, for I went on the [a]mission on which the Lord sent me; and I have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have completely destroyed the Amalekites. 21 But (B)the people took some of the spoils, sheep and oxen, the choicest of the things designated for destruction, to sacrifice to the Lord your God at Gilgal.” 22 Samuel said,
“(C)Does the Lord have as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
As in obeying the voice of the Lord?
Behold, (D)to obey is better than a sacrifice,
And to pay attention is better than the fat of rams.
