1 Samuel 15:2-4
New Life Version
2 This is what the Lord of All says. ‘I will punish Amalek for what he did to Israel in standing against them on the way, when they came up from Egypt. 3 Now go and destroy Amalek. Destroy all they have, and do not let them live. Kill both man and woman, child and baby, cattle and sheep, camel and donkey.’”
4 So Saul called the people together and numbered them in Telaim. There were 200,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 men of Judah.
