Then Samuel 8050 took 3947-4 a vial 6378 of oil, 8081 and poured 3332-4 [it] upon his head, 7218 and kissed 5401-4 him, and said, 559-4 [Is it] not because the LORD 3068 hath anointed 4886-1 thee [to be] captain 5057 over his inheritance? 5159 |
| 2 |
When thou art departed 3212-2 from me 5978 to day, 3117 then thou shalt find 4672-1 two 8147 men 582 by Rachel's 7354 sepulchre 6900 in the border 1366 of Benjamin 1144 at Zelzah; 6766 and they will say 559-1 unto thee, The asses 860 which thou wentest 1980-1 to seek 1245-15 are found: 4672-8 and, lo, thy father 1 hath left 5203-1 the care 1697 of the asses, 860 and sorroweth 1672-1 for you, saying, 559-2 What shall I do 6213-4 for my son? 1121 |
| 3 |
Then shalt thou go on 2498-1 forward 1973 from thence, and thou shalt come 935-1 to the plain 436 of Tabor, 8396 and there shall meet 4672-1 thee three 7969 men 582 going up 5927-6 to God 430 to Bethel, 1008 one 259 carrying 5375-6 three 7969 kids, 1423 and another 259 carrying 5375-6 three 7969 loaves 3603 of bread, 3899 and another 259 carrying 5375-6 a bottle 5035 of wine: 3196 |
| 4 |
And they will 7592-1 salute 7965 thee, and give 5414-1 thee two 8147 [loaves] of bread; 3899 which thou shalt receive 3947-1 of their hands. 3027 |
| 5 |
After 310 that thou shalt come 935-4 to the hill 1389 of God, 430 where [is] the garrison 5333 of the Philistines: 6430 and it shall come to pass, when thou art come 935-2 thither to the city, 5892 that thou shalt meet 6293-1 a company 2256 of prophets 5030 coming down 3381-6 from the high place 1116 with a psaltery, 5035 and a tabret, 8596 and a pipe, 2485 and a harp, 3658 before 6440 them; and they shall prophesy: 5012-102 |
| 6 |
And the Spirit 7307 of the LORD 3068 will come 6743-1 upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy 5012-98 with them, and shalt be turned 2015-8 into another 312 man. 376 |
| 7 |
And let it be, when these signs 226 are come 935-4 unto thee, [that] thou do 6213-3 as occasion 4672-4 serve thee; 3027 for God 430 [is] with thee. |
| 8 |
And thou shalt go down 3381-1 before 6440 me to Gilgal; 1537 and, behold, I will come down 3381-6 unto thee, to offer 5927-53 burnt offerings, 5930 [and] to sacrifice 2076-2 sacrifices 2077 of peace offerings: 8002 seven 7651 days 3117 shalt thou tarry, 3176-55 till I come 935-2 to thee, and shew 3045-52 thee what thou shalt do. 6213-4 |
| 9 |
And it was [so], that when he had turned 6437-53 his back 7926 to go 3212-2 from Samuel, 8050 God 430 gave 2015-4 him another 312 heart: 3820 and all those signs 226 came to pass 935-4 that day. 3117 |
| 10 |
And when they came 935-4 thither to the hill, 1389|1390 behold, a company 2256 of prophets 5030 met 7125-2 him; and the Spirit 7307 of God 430 came 6743-4 upon him, and he prophesied 5012-101 among 8432 them. |
| 11 |
And it came to pass, when all that knew 3045-6 him beforetime 865 8032 saw 7200-4 that, behold, he prophesied 5012-8 among the prophets, 5030 then the people 5971 said 559-4 one 376 to another, 7453 What [is] this [that] is come unto the son 1121 of Kish? 7027 [Is] Saul 7586 also among the prophets? 5030 |
| 12 |
And one 376 of the same place answered 6030-4 and said, 559-4 But who [is] their father? 1 Therefore it became a proverb, 4912 [Is] Saul 7586 also among the prophets? 5030 |
| 13 |
And when he had made an end 3615-17 of prophesying, 5012-99 he came 935-4 to the high place. 1116 |
| 14 |
And Saul's 7586 uncle 1730 said 559-4 unto him and to his servant, 5288 Whither 575 went 1980-1 ye? And he said, 559-4 To seek 1245-15 the asses: 860 and when we saw 7200-4 that [they were] no where, 369 we came 935-4 to Samuel. 8050 |
| 15 |
And Saul's 7586 uncle 1730 said, 559-4 Tell 5046-54 me, I pray thee, what Samuel 8050 said 559-1 unto you. |
| 16 |
And Saul 7586 said 559-4 unto his uncle, 1730 He told 5046-52 us plainly 5046-53 that the asses 860 were found. 4672-8 But of the matter 1697 of the kingdom, 4410 whereof Samuel 8050 spake, 559-1 he told 5046-52 him not. |
| 17 |
And Samuel 8050 called 6817-55 the people 5971 together unto the LORD 3068 to Mizpeh; 4709 |
| 18 |
And said 559-4 unto the children 1121 of Israel, 3478 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel, 3478 I brought up 5927-52 Israel 3478 out of Egypt, 4714 and delivered 5337-55 you out of the hand 3027 of the Egyptians, 4714 and out of the hand 3027 of all kingdoms, 4467 [and] of them that oppressed 3905-5 you: |
| 19 |
And ye have this day 3117 rejected 3988-1 your God, 430 who himself saved 3467-56 you out of all your adversities 7451 and your tribulations; 6869 and ye have said 559-4 unto him, [Nay], but set 7760-4 a king 4428 over us. Now therefore present 3320-100 yourselves before 6440 the LORD 3068 by your tribes, 7626 and by your thousands. 505 |
| 20 |
And when Samuel 8050 had caused all the tribes 7626 of Israel 3478 to come near, 7126-55 the tribe 7626 of Benjamin 1144 was taken. 3920-11 |
| 21 |
When he had caused the tribe 7626 of Benjamin 1144 to come near 7126-55 by their families, 4940 the family 4940 of Matri 4309 was taken, 3920-11 and Saul 7586 the son 1121 of Kish 7027 was taken: 3920-11 and when they sought 1245-17 him, he could not be found. 4672-8 |
| 22 |
Therefore they enquired 7592-4 of the LORD 3068 further, if the man 376 should yet come 935-1 thither. 1988 And the LORD 3068 answered, 559-4 Behold, he hath hid 2244-12 himself among the stuff. 3627 |
| 23 |
And they ran 7323-4 and fetched 3947-4 him thence: and when he stood 3320-101 among 8432 the people, 5971 he was higher 1361-4 than any of the people 5971 from his shoulders 7926 and upward. 4605 |
| 24 |
And Samuel 8050 said 559-4 to all the people, 5971 See 7200-1 ye him whom the LORD 3068 hath chosen, 977-1 that [there is] none like him among all the people? 5971 And all the people 5971 shouted, 7321-55 and said, 559-4 God save 2421-4 the king. 4428 |
| 25 |
Then Samuel 8050 told 1696-17 the people 5971 the manner 4941 of the kingdom, 4410 and wrote 3789-4 [it] in a book, 5612 and laid [it] up 3240-55 before 6440 the LORD. 3068 And Samuel 8050 sent all the people 5971 away, 7971-17 every man 376 to his house. 1004 |
| 26 |
And Saul 7586 also went 1980-1 home 1004 to Gibeah; 1390 and there went 3212-4 with him a band of men, 2428 whose hearts 3820 God 430 had touched. 5060-1 |
| 27 |
But the children 1121 of Belial 1100 said, 559-1 How shall this man save 3467-55 us? And they despised 959-4 him, and brought 935-52 him no presents. 4503 But he held his peace. 2790-56 |
