Why then did you not obey the voice of the Lord? Why did you swoop on the soil and do what was evil in the
sight of the Lord? The offence of the addressee was that he
 
spared the Kenites
spared Agag and the fatty animal of Amalek
totally disobeyed David's voice
sacrificed to God without Samuel's approval.

Explanation

The offence of the addressee (Saul) was that he: B. spared Agag and the fatty animals of Amalek.

This can be found in 1 Samuel 15. God had commanded Saul to utterly destroy the Amalekites and all their possessions, but Saul spared King Agag and some of the best livestock. This disobedience led to Samuel's rebuke and the subsequent rejection of Saul as king by God.
