Parallel
1 Samuel 15:22
Clementine Vulgate · Berean Standard Bible
Et ait Samuel : Numquid vult Dominus holocausta et victimas, et non potius ut obediatur voci Domini ? melior est enim obedientia quam victimæ, et auscultare magis quam offerre adipem arietum.
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.
