⁵ And when Saul was come to the city of Amalec, he laid ambushes in the torrent.

⁶ And Saul said to the Cinite: Go, depart and get ye down from Amalec: lest I destroy thee with him. For thou hast shewn kindness to all the children of Israel, when they came up out of Egypt. And the Cinite departed from the midst of Amalec.

⁷ And Saul smote Amalec from Hevila, until thou comest to Sur, which is over against Egypt.
