1Samuel ; Chapter 15 Verse 13 -15
13 When Samuel reached him, Saul said, “The Lord bless you! I have carried out the Lord’s instructions.”
14 But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?”
15 Saul answered, “The soldiers brought them from the Amalekites; they spared the best of the sheep and cattle to sacrifice to the Lord your God, but we totally destroyed the rest.”
3 سموئیل ساؤل کے پاس گیا اور ساؤل نے سلام کیا۔ ساؤل نے کہا ، “خداوند تم پر فضل کرے۔” میں نے خداوند کے احکامات کی تعمیل کی۔”
14 لیکن سمو ئیل نے کہا ، “وہ کونسی آواز ہے جو میں سن رہا ہوں۔ میں مویشیوں کی آٰواز سننے کے لئے کیوں ٹھہروں۔”
15 ساؤل نے کہا ، “سپا ہیوں نے انہیں عمالیقیوں سے لیا ہے۔ سپا ہیوں نے بہترین بھیڑ اور مویشیوں کو خداوند کے واسطے جلانے کی قربانی پیش کرنے کے لئے بچا یا ہے۔ لیکن ہم نے اس کے سوا ہر چیز تباہ کر دی ہے۔ ”
My point of view about above verses
Samuel told Saul that God say as I have anointed you as king over my people so that you have to fight Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Don’t spare them put to death men and women, children and infants and all type of cattle
Saul didn’t destroy cattle of Amalekites
As soldiers spared the best cattle's to sacrifice to the Lord
God became angry with Saul as he did not act fully on the instructions given by God
Wr need to obey God with our heart, mind, soul and body and do not offer him anything from loot
May God give us wisdom to understand Him through His Word as He speaks with us through this - and apply it in our lives to have a blissful life on earth
