Parallel
1 Samuel 15:22
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουὴλ Εἰ θελητὸν τῷ κυρίῳ ὁλοκαυτώματα καὶ θυσίας ὡς τὸ ἀκοῦσαι φωνῆς κυρίου ; ἰδοὺ ἀκοὴ ὑπὲρ θυσίαν ἀγαθήν, καὶ ἡ ἐπακρόασις ὑπὲρ στέαρ κριῶν.
But Samuel declared: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obedience to His voice? Behold, obedience is better than sacrifice, and attentiveness is better than the fat of rams.
