Amalek

Then 'Amalek came and fought with Isra'el at Refidim.

Moshe said to Y'hoshua, "Choose men for us, go out, and fight with 'Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on top of the hill with God's staff in my hand."

Y'hoshua did as Moshe had told him and fought with 'Amalek. Then Moshe, Aharon and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

When Moshe raised his hand, Isra'el prevailed; but when he let it down, 'Amalek prevailed.

Thus Y'hoshua defeated 'Amalek, putting their people to the sword.

ADONAI said to Moshe, "Write this in a book to be remembered, and tell it to Y'hoshua: I will completely blot out any memory of 'Amalek from under heaven."

and said, "Because their hand was against the throne of Yah, ADONAI will fight 'Amalek generation after generation."

He saw 'Amalek and made this pronouncement: "First among nations was 'Amalek, but destruction will be its end."

"Remember what 'Amalek did to you on the road as you were coming out of Egypt,

Therefore, when ADONAI your God has given you rest from all your surrounding enemies in the land ADONAI your God is giving you as your inheritance to possess, you are to blot out all memory of 'Amalek from under heaven. Don't forget!

Here is what ADONAI-Tzva'ot says: 'I remember what 'Amalek did to Isra'el, how they fought against Isra'el when they were coming up from Egypt.

Now go and attack 'Amalek, and completely destroy everything they have. Don't spare them, but kill men and women, children and babies, cows and sheep, camels and donkeys.'"

Sha'ul arrived at the city of 'Amalek and lay in wait in the valley.

He took Agag the king of 'Amalek alive; but he completely destroyed the people, putting them to the sword.

Sha'ul said to Sh'mu'el, "I did too pay attention to what ADONAI said, and I carried out the mission on which ADONAI sent me. I brought back Agag the king of 'Amalek, and I completely destroyed 'Amalek.

because you didn't obey what ADONAI said and execute his furious anger toward 'Amalek. That's why ADONAI is doing this to you today.
