- Amalek:
- "Dukeª Korah,ª dukeª Gatam,ª [and] dukeª Amalek:ª these¹ [are] the dukesª [that came] of Eliphazª in the landª of Edom;ª these¹ [were] the sonsª of Adah.ª" {Gen 36:16} + "And they returned,ª° and cameª° toª Enmishpat,ª which¹ [is] Kadesh,ª and smoteª°¹ all¹ the countryª of the Amalekites,ª and also¹¹ the Amorites,ª that dweltª° in Hazezontamar.ª" {Gen 14:7} + "Then cameª° Amalek,ª and foughtª° with¹ Israelª in Rephidim.ª ... For he said,ª° Because¹ the LORDª hath swornªª¹ [that] the LORDª [will have] warª with Amalekª from generationª¹ to generation.ª" {Exd 17:8-16} + "And Edomª shall be¹ a possession,ª Seirª also shall be¹ a possessionª for his enemies;ª° and Israelª shall doª° valiantly.ª ... And when he looked²° on¹¹ Amalek,ª he took upª° his parable,ª and said,ª° Amalekª [was] the firstª of the nations;ª but his latter² end¹ [shall be] that he perishª for ever.ª" {Num 24:18-20} + "Thou shalt not¹ abhorª° an Edomite;ª for¹ he¹ [is] thy brother:ª thou shalt not¹ abhorª° an Egyptian;ª because¹ thou wast¹ a strangerª in his land.ª" {Deu 23:7} + "Rememberª°¹ what¹ Amalekª didª° unto thee by the way,ª when ye were come forthª° out of Egypt;ª¹ ... Therefore it shall be,¹ when the LORDª thy Godª hath given thee restª° from all¹¹ thine enemiesª° round about,ª¹ in the landª which¹ the LORDª thy Godª givethª° thee [for] an inheritanceª to possessª° it, [that] thou shalt blot outª°¹ the remembranceª of Amalekª from under¹¹ heaven;ª thou shalt not¹ forgetª° [it]." {Deu 25:17-19} + "Thus¹ saithª° the LORDª of hosts,ª I rememberª° [that]¹ which¹ Amalekª didª° to Israel,ª how¹ he laidª° [wait] for him in the way,ª when he came upª° from Egypt.ª¹" {1Sm 15:2} + "Now¹ go²°¹ and smiteª°¹ Amalek,ª and utterly destroyª°¹ all¹ that¹ they have, and spareª°¹ them not;¹ but slayª° both manª¹ and¹ woman,ª infantª¹ and suckling,ª° oxª¹ and sheep,ª camelª¹ and ass.ª ... But Saulª and the peopleª sparedª°¹ Agag,ª and the bestª of the sheep,ª and of the oxen,ª and of the fatlings,ª and the lambs,ª and all¹ [that was] good,ª and wouldª° not¹ utterly destroyª° them: but every¹ thingª [that was] vileª and refuse,ª° that they destroyed utterly.ª°" {1Sm 15:3-9}
