Now there was a manH376 of BenjaminH1144, whose nameH8034 was KishH7027, the sonH1121 of AbielH22, the sonH1121 of ZerorH6872, the sonH1121 of BechorathH1064, the sonH1121 of AphiahH647, a BenjamiteH1145, a mightyH1368 manH376 of powerH2428. {a Benjamite: or, the son of a man of Jemini} {power: or, substance}
And he had a sonH1121, whose nameH8034 was SaulH7586, a choice young manH970, and a goodlyH2896: and there was not among the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 a goodlierH2896 personH376 than he: from his shouldersH7926 and upwardH4605 he was higherH1364 than any of the peopleH5971.
And the assesH860 of KishH7027 Saul'sH7586 fatherH1 were lostH6. And KishH7027 saidH559 to SaulH7586 his sonH1121, TakeH3947 now oneH259 of the servantsH5288 with thee, and ariseH6965, goH3212 seekH1245 the assesH860.
And he passed throughH5674 mountH2022 EphraimH669, and passed throughH5674 the landH776 of ShalishaH8031, but they foundH4672 them not: then they passed throughH5674 the landH776 of ShalimH8171, and there they were not: and he passed throughH5674 the landH776 of the BenjamitesH1145, but they foundH4672 them not.
And when they were comeH935 to the landH776 of ZuphH6689, SaulH7586 saidH559 to his servantH5288 that was with him, ComeH3212, and let us returnH7725; lest my fatherH1 leaveH2308 caring for the assesH860, and take thoughtH1672 for us.
And he saidH559 unto him, Behold now, there is in this cityH5892 a manH376 of GodH430, and he is an honourableH3513 manH376; all that he saithH1696 comethH935 surely to passH935: now let us goH3212 thither; peradventure he can shewH5046 us our wayH1870 that we should goH1980.
Then saidH559 SaulH7586 to his servantH5288, But, behold, if we goH3212, what shall we bringH935 the manH376? for the breadH3899 is spentH235 in our vesselsH3627, and there is not a presentH8670 to bringH935 to the manH376 of GodH430: what have we? {is spent…: Heb. is gone out of, etc} {have we: Heb. is with us?}
And the servantH5288 answeredH6030 SaulH7586 againH3254, and saidH559, Behold, I haveH4672 here at handH3027 the fourth partH7253 of a shekelH8255 of silverH3701: that will I giveH5414 to the manH376 of GodH430, to tellH5046 us our wayH1870. {I have…: Heb. there is found in my hand}
(BeforetimeH6440 in IsraelH3478, when a manH376 wentH3212 to enquireH1875 of GodH430, thus he spakeH559, ComeH3212, and let us goH3212 to the seerH7200: for he that is nowH3117 called a ProphetH5030 was beforetimeH6440 calledH7121 a SeerH7200.)
Then saidH1697 SaulH7586 to his servantH5288, WellH2896 saidH559; comeH3212, let us goH3212. So they wentH3212 unto the cityH5892 where the manH376 of GodH430 was. {Well said: Heb. Thy word is good}
And as they went upH5927 the hillH4608 to the cityH5892, they foundH4672 young maidensH5291 going outH3318 to drawH7579 waterH4325, and saidH559 unto them, IsH3426 the seerH7200 here? {the hill…: Heb. in the ascent of the city}
And they answeredH6030 them, and saidH559, He isH3426; behold, he is beforeH6440 you: make hasteH4116 now, for he cameH935 to dayH3117 to the cityH5892; for there is a sacrificeH2077 of the peopleH5971 to dayH3117 in the high placeH1116: {sacrifice: or, feast}
As soon as ye be comeH935 into the cityH5892, ye shall straightwayH3651 findH4672 him, before he go upH5927 to the high placeH1116 to eatH398: for the peopleH5971 will not eatH398 until he comeH935, because he doth blessH1288 the sacrificeH2077; and afterwardsH310+H3651 they eatH398 that be biddenH7121. Now therefore get you upH5927; for about this timeH3117 ye shall findH4672 him. {this time: Heb. to day}
And they went upH5927 intoH8432 the cityH5892: and when they were comeH935 into the cityH5892, behold, SamuelH8050 came outH3318 againstH7125 them, for to go upH5927 to the high placeH1116.
Now the LORDH3068 had toldH1540 SamuelH8050 in his earH241 aH259 dayH3117 beforeH6440 SaulH7586 cameH935, sayingH559, {told…: Heb. revealed the ear of Samuel}
To morrowH4279 about this timeH6256 I will sendH7971 thee a manH376 out of the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and thou shalt anointH4886 him to be captainH5057 over my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478, that he may saveH3467 my peopleH5971 out of the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430: for I have lookedH7200 upon my peopleH5971, because their cryH6818 is comeH935 unto me.
And when SamuelH8050 sawH7200 SaulH7586, the LORDH3068 saidH6030 unto him, Behold the manH376 whom I spakeH559 to thee of! this same shall reignH6113 over my peopleH5971. {reign over: Heb. restrain in}
Then SaulH7586 drew nearH5066 to SamuelH8050 inH8432 the gateH8179, and saidH559, TellH5046 me, I pray thee, whereH335 the seer'sH7200 houseH1004 is.
And SamuelH8050 answeredH6030 SaulH7586, and saidH559, I am the seerH7200: go upH5927 beforeH6440 me unto the high placeH1116; for ye shall eatH398 with me to dayH3117, and to morrowH1242 I will let thee goH7971, and will tellH5046 thee all that is in thine heartH3824.
And as for thine assesH860 that were lostH6 threeH7969 daysH3117 agoH3117, setH7760 not thy mindH3820 on them; for they are foundH4672. And on whom is all the desireH2532 of IsraelH3478? Is it not on thee, and on all thy father'sH1 houseH1004? {three…: Heb. to day three days}
And SaulH7586 answeredH6030 and saidH559, Am not I a BenjamiteH1145, of the smallestH6996 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478? and my familyH4940 the leastH6810 of all the familiesH4940 of the tribeH7626 of BenjaminH1144? wherefore then speakestH1696 thou soH1697 to me? {so…: Heb. according to this word}
And SamuelH8050 tookH3947 SaulH7586 and his servantH5288, and broughtH935 them into the parlourH3957, and made them sitH5414 in the chiefestH7218 placeH4725 among them that were biddenH7121, which were about thirtyH7970 personsH376.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto the cookH2876, BringH5414 the portionH4490 which I gaveH5414 thee, of which I saidH559 unto thee, SetH7760 it by thee.
And the cookH2876 took upH7311 the shoulderH7785, and that which was upon it, and setH7760 it beforeH6440 SaulH7586. And Samuel saidH559, Behold that which is leftH7604! setH7760 it beforeH6440 thee, and eatH398: for unto this timeH4150 hath it been keptH8104 for thee since I saidH559, I have invitedH7121 the peopleH5971. So SaulH7586 did eatH398 with SamuelH8050 that dayH3117. {left: or, reserved}
And when they were come downH3381 from the high placeH1116 into the cityH5892, Samuel communedH1696 with SaulH7586 upon the top of the houseH1406.
And they arose earlyH7925: and it came to pass about the springH5927 of the dayH7837, that SamuelH8050 calledH7121 SaulH7586 to the top of the houseH1406, sayingH559, UpH6965, that I may send thee awayH7971. And SaulH7586 aroseH6965, and they went outH3318 bothH8147 of them, he and SamuelH8050, abroadH2351.
And as they were going downH3381 to the endH7097 of the cityH5892, SamuelH8050 saidH559 to SaulH7586, BidH559 the servantH5288 pass onH5674 beforeH6440 us, (and he passed onH5674,) but standH5975 thou still a whileH3117, that I may shewH8085 thee the wordH1697 of GodH430. {a while: Heb. to day}

And the childrenH1121 struggled togetherH7533 within herH7130; and she saidH559, If it be so, why am I thusH2088? And she wentH3212 to enquireH1875 of the LORDH3068.
For when DavidH1732 was upH6965 in the morningH1242, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came unto the prophetH5030 GadH1410, David'sH1732 seerH2374, sayingH559,
Now afterH310 the deathH4194 of JoshuaH3091 it came to pass, that the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 askedH7592 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, Who shall go upH5927 for us against the CanaanitesH3669 firstH8462, to fightH3898 against them?
Yet the LORDH3068 testifiedH5749 against IsraelH3478, and against JudahH3063, byH3027 all the prophetsH5030, and by all the seersH2374, sayingH559, TurnH7725 ye from your evilH7451 waysH1870, and keepH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708, according to all the lawH8451 which I commandedH6680 your fathersH1, and which I sentH7971 to you byH3027 my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030. {by: Heb. by the hand of}
And all that SamuelH8050 the seerH7200, and SaulH7586 the sonH1121 of KishH7027, and AbnerH74 the sonH1121 of NerH5369, and JoabH3097 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, had dedicatedH6942; and whosoever had dedicatedH6942 any thing, it was under the handH3027 of ShelomithH8019, and of his brethrenH251.
Now the actsH1697 of DavidH1732 the kingH4428, firstH7223 and lastH314, behold, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH1697 of SamuelH8050 the seerH7200, and in the bookH1697 of NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and in the bookH1697 of GadH1410 the seerH2374, {book: or, history: Heb. words}
And at that timeH6256 HananiH2607 the seerH7200 cameH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and saidH559 unto him, Because thou hast reliedH8172 on the kingH4428 of SyriaH758, and not reliedH8172 on the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, therefore is the hostH2428 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 escapedH4422 out of thine handH3027.
Then AsaH609 was wrothH3707 with the seerH7200, and putH5414 him in a prisonH4115 houseH1004; for he was in a rageH2197 with him because of this thing. And AsaH609 oppressedH7533 some of the peopleH5971 the same timeH6256. {oppressed: Heb. crushed}
