1 Samuel 15:2-4
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
2 Thus says the Lord of hosts, I have considered and will punish what Amalek did to Israel, how he set himself against him in the way when [Israel] came out of Egypt.
3 Now go and smite Amalek and utterly destroy all they have; do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.
4 So Saul assembled the men and numbered them at Telaim—200,000 men on foot and 10,000 men of Judah.

Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”
