1 Samuel 15 21-1 Samuel 15 24
The troops took sheep and cattle from the plunder— the best of what was set apart for destruction— to sacrifice to the Lord your God at Gilgal.”Then Samuel said: Does the Lord take pleasure in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? Look: to obey is better than sacrifice, to pay attention is better than the fat of rams.For rebellion is like the sin of divination, and defiance is like wickedness and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, He has rejected you as king.Saul answered Samuel,“ I have sinned. I have transgressed the Lord’s command and your words. Because I was afraid of the people, I obeyed them.

Your incense is detestable to Me. New Moons and Sabbaths, and the calling of solemn assemblies— I cannot stand iniquity with a festival.
