32 Samuel said, “Bring me Agag king of Amalek.”

Agag came to him trembling,[a] for he thought, “Certainly the bitterness of death has come.”[b][c]

33 Samuel declared:

As your sword has made women childless,
so your mother will be childless among women.(A)

Then he hacked Agag to pieces before the Lord at Gilgal.

34 Samuel went to Ramah,(B) and Saul went up to his home in Gibeah(C) of Saul.
