And SamuelH8050 cameH935 to SaulH7586: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto him, BlessedH1288 be thou of the LORDH3068: I have performedH6965 the commandmentH1697 of the LORDH3068.
SamuelH8050 also saidH559 unto SaulH7586, The LORDH3068 sentH7971 me to anointH4886 thee to be kingH4428 over his peopleH5971, over IsraelH3478: now therefore hearkenH8085 thou unto the voiceH6963 of the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, I rememberH6485 that which AmalekH6002 didH6213 to IsraelH3478, how he laidH7760 wait for him in the wayH1870, when he came upH5927 from EgyptH4714.
Now goH3212 and smiteH5221 AmalekH6002, and utterly destroyH2763 all that they have, and spareH2550 them not; but slayH4191 both manH376 and womanH802, infantH5768 and sucklingH3243, oxH7794 and sheepH7716, camelH1581 and assH2543.
And SaulH7586 gatheredH8085 the peopleH5971 togetherH8085, and numberedH6485 them in TelaimH2923, two hundredH3967 thousandH505 footmenH7273, and tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 of JudahH3063.
And SaulH7586 cameH935 to a cityH5892 of AmalekH6002, and laid waitH7378+H693 in the valleyH5158. {laid…: or, fought}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto the KenitesH7017, GoH3212, departH5493, get you downH3381 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6002, lest I destroyH622 you with them: for ye shewedH6213 kindnessH2617 to all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, when they came upH5927 out of EgyptH4714. So the KenitesH7017 departedH5493 from amongH8432 the AmalekitesH6003.
And SaulH7586 smoteH5221 the AmalekitesH6002 from HavilahH2341 until thou comestH935 to ShurH7793, that is over againstH6440 EgyptH4714.
And he tookH8610 AgagH90 the kingH4428 of the AmalekitesH6002 aliveH2416, and utterly destroyedH2763 all the peopleH5971 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
But SaulH7586 and the peopleH5971 sparedH2550 AgagH90, and the bestH4315 of the sheepH6629, and of the oxenH1241, and of the fatlingsH4932, and the lambsH3733, and all that was goodH2896, and wouldH14 not utterly destroyH2763 them: but every thingH4399 that was vileH5240 and refuseH4549, that they destroyed utterlyH2763. {fatlings: or, second sort}
Then came the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 unto SamuelH8050, sayingH559,
It repentethH5162 me that I have set upH4427 SaulH7586 to be kingH4428: for he is turned backH7725 from followingH310 me, and hath not performedH6965 my commandmentsH1697. And it grievedH2734 SamuelH8050; and he criedH2199 unto the LORDH3068 all nightH3915.
And when SamuelH8050 rose earlyH7925 to meetH7125 SaulH7586 in the morningH1242, it was toldH5046 SamuelH8050, sayingH559, SaulH7586 cameH935 to CarmelH3760, and, behold, he set him upH5324 a placeH3027, and is gone aboutH5437, and passed onH5674, and gone downH3381 to GilgalH1537.
And SamuelH8050 cameH935 to SaulH7586: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto him, BlessedH1288 be thou of the LORDH3068: I have performedH6965 the commandmentH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, What meaneth then this bleatingH6963 of the sheepH6629 in mine earsH241, and the lowingH6963 of the oxenH1241 which I hearH8085?
And SaulH7586 saidH559, They have broughtH935 them from the AmalekitesH6003: for the peopleH5971 sparedH2550 the bestH4315 of the sheepH6629 and of the oxenH1241, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430; and the restH3498 we have utterly destroyedH2763.
Then SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, StayH7503, and I will tellH5046 thee what the LORDH3068 hath saidH1696 to me this nightH3915. And he saidH559 unto him, Say onH1696.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, When thou wast littleH6996 in thine own sightH5869, wast thou not made the headH7218 of the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, and the LORDH3068 anointedH4886 thee kingH4428 over IsraelH3478?
And the LORDH3068 sentH7971 thee on a journeyH1870, and saidH559, GoH3212 and utterly destroyH2763 the sinnersH2400 the AmalekitesH6002, and fightH3898 against them until they be consumedH3615. {they…: Heb. they consume them}
Wherefore then didst thou not obeyH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, but didst flyH5860 upon the spoilH7998, and didstH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068?
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, Yea, I have obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068, and have goneH3212 the wayH1870 which the LORDH3068 sentH7971 me, and have broughtH935 AgagH90 the kingH4428 of AmalekH6002, and have utterly destroyedH2763 the AmalekitesH6002.
But the peopleH5971 tookH3947 of the spoilH7998, sheepH6629 and oxenH1241, the chiefH7225 of the things which should have been utterly destroyedH2764, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in GilgalH1537.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, Hath the LORDH3068 as great delightH2656 in burnt offeringsH5930 and sacrificesH2077, as in obeyingH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068? Behold, to obeyH8085 is betterH2896 than sacrificeH2077, and to hearkenH7181 than the fatH2459 of ramsH352.
For rebellionH4805 is as the sinH2403 of witchcraftH7081, and stubbornnessH6484 is as iniquityH205 and idolatryH8655. Because thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, he hath also rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428. {witchcraft: Heb. divination}
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, I have sinnedH2398: for I have transgressedH5674 the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and thy wordsH1697: because I fearedH3372 the peopleH5971, and obeyedH8085 their voiceH6963.
Now therefore, I pray thee, pardonH5375 my sinH2403, and turn againH7725 with me, that I may worshipH7812 the LORDH3068.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto SaulH7586, I will not returnH7725 with thee: for thou hast rejectedH3988 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and the LORDH3068 hath rejectedH3988 thee from being kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
And as SamuelH8050 turned aboutH5437 to go awayH3212, he laid holdH2388 upon the skirtH3671 of his mantleH4598, and it rentH7167.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto him, The LORDH3068 hath rentH7167 the kingdomH4468 of IsraelH3478 from thee this dayH3117, and hath givenH5414 it to a neighbourH7453 of thine, that is betterH2896 than thou.
And also the StrengthH5331 of IsraelH3478 will not lieH8266 nor repentH5162: for he is not a manH120, that he should repentH5162. {Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory}
Then he saidH559, I have sinnedH2398: yet honourH3513 me now, I pray thee, before the eldersH2205 of my peopleH5971, and before IsraelH3478, and turn againH7725 with me, that I may worshipH7812 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
So SamuelH8050 turned againH7725 afterH310 SaulH7586; and SaulH7586 worshippedH7812 the LORDH3068.
Then saidH559 SamuelH8050, Bring ye hitherH5066 to me AgagH90 the kingH4428 of the AmalekitesH6002. And AgagH90 cameH3212 unto him delicatelyH4574. And AgagH90 saidH559, SurelyH403 the bitternessH4751 of deathH4194 is pastH5493.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, As thy swordH2719 hath made womenH802 childlessH7921, so shall thy motherH517 be childlessH7921 among womenH802. And SamuelH8050 hewedH8158 AgagH90 in piecesH8158 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 in GilgalH1537.
Then SamuelH8050 wentH3212 to RamahH7414; and SaulH7586 went upH5927 to his houseH1004 to GibeahH1390 of SaulH7586.
And SamuelH8050 came no moreH3254 to seeH7200 SaulH7586 until the dayH3117 of his deathH4194: neverthelessH3588 SamuelH8050 mournedH56 for SaulH7586: and the LORDH3068 repentedH5162 that he had made SaulH7586 kingH4427 over IsraelH3478.
But now thy kingdomH4467 shall not continueH6965: the LORDH3068 hath soughtH1245 him a manH376 after his own heartH3824, and the LORDH3068 hath commandedH6680 him to be captainH5057 over his peopleH5971, because thou hast not keptH8104 that which the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 thee.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, How long wilt thou mournH56 for SaulH7586, seeing I have rejectedH3988 him from reigningH4427 over IsraelH3478? fillH4390 thine hornH7161 with oilH8081, and goH3212, I will sendH7971 thee to JesseH3448 the BethlehemiteH1022: for I have providedH7200 me a kingH4428 among his sonsH1121.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559, How can I goH3212? if SaulH7586 hearH8085 it, he will killH2026 me. And the LORDH3068 saidH559, TakeH3947 an heiferH1241+H5697 with theeH3027, and sayH559, I am comeH935 to sacrificeH2076 to the LORDH3068. {with thee: Heb. in thine hand}
And callH7121 JesseH3448 to the sacrificeH2077, and I will shewH3045 thee what thou shalt doH6213: and thou shalt anointH4886 unto me him whom I nameH559 unto thee.
And SamuelH8050 didH6213 that which the LORDH3068 spakeH1696, and cameH935 to BethlehemH1035. And the eldersH2205 of the townH5892 trembledH2729 at his comingH7125, and saidH559, ComestH935 thou peaceablyH7965? {coming: Heb. meeting}
And he saidH559, PeaceablyH7965: I am comeH935 to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068: sanctifyH6942 yourselves, and comeH935 with me to the sacrificeH2077. And he sanctifiedH6942 JesseH3448 and his sonsH1121, and calledH7121 them to the sacrificeH2077.
And it came to pass, when they were comeH935, that he lookedH7200 on EliabH446, and saidH559, Surely the LORD'SH3068 anointedH4899 is before him. {Eliab: called Elihu}
But the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto SamuelH8050, LookH5027 not on his countenanceH4758, or on the heightH1364 of his statureH6967; because I have refusedH3988 him: for the LORD seeth not as manH120 seethH7200; for manH120 lookethH7200 on the outward appearanceH5869, but the LORDH3068 lookethH7200 on the heartH3824. {outward…: Heb. eyes}
Then JesseH3448 calledH7121 AbinadabH41, and made him passH5674 beforeH6440 SamuelH8050. And he saidH559, Neither hath the LORDH3068 chosenH977 this.
Then JesseH3448 made ShammahH8048 to pass byH5674. And he saidH559, Neither hath the LORDH3068 chosenH977 this.
Again, JesseH3448 made sevenH7651 of his sonsH1121 to passH5674 beforeH6440 SamuelH8050. And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto JesseH3448, The LORDH3068 hath not chosenH977 these.
And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto JesseH3448, Are here allH8552 thy childrenH5288? And he saidH559, There remainethH7604 yet the youngestH6996, and, behold, he keepethH7462 the sheepH6629. And SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto JesseH3448, SendH7971 and fetchH3947 him: for we will not sit downH5437 till he comeH935 hitherH6311. {down: Heb. round}
And he sentH7971, and brought him inH935. Now he was ruddyH132, and withalH5973 of a beautifulH3303 countenanceH5869, and goodlyH2896 to look toH7210. And the LORDH3068 saidH559, AriseH6965, anointH4886 him: for this is he. {of a…: Heb. fair of eyes}
Then SamuelH8050 tookH3947 the hornH7161 of oilH8081, and anointedH4886 him in the midstH7130 of his brethrenH251: and the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 cameH6743 upon DavidH1732 from that dayH3117 forwardH4605. So SamuelH8050 rose upH6965, and wentH3212 to RamahH7414.
But the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 departedH5493 from SaulH7586, and an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from the LORDH3068 troubledH1204 him. {troubled: or, terrified}
And Saul'sH7586 servantsH5650 saidH559 unto him, Behold now, an evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 troublethH1204 thee.
Let our lordH113 now commandH559 thy servantsH5650, which are beforeH6440 thee, to seek outH1245 a manH376, who is a cunningH3045 playerH5059 on an harpH3658: and it shall come to pass, when the evilH7451 spiritH7307 from GodH430 is upon thee, that he shall playH5059 with his handH3027, and thou shalt be wellH2895.
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto his servantsH5650, ProvideH7200 me now a manH376 that can playH5059 wellH3190, and bringH935 him to me.
Then answeredH6030 oneH259 of the servantsH5288, and saidH559, Behold, I have seenH7200 a sonH1121 of JesseH3448 the BethlehemiteH1022, that is cunningH3045 in playingH5059, and a mightyH1368 valiant manH2428, and a manH376 of warH4421, and prudentH995 in mattersH1697, and a comelyH8389 personH376, and the LORDH3068 is with him. {matters: or, speech}
Wherefore SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto JesseH3448, and saidH559, SendH7971 me DavidH1732 thy sonH1121, which is with the sheepH6629.
And JesseH3448 tookH3947 an assH2543 laden with breadH3899, and a bottleH4997 of wineH3196, and aH259 kidH1423+H5795, and sentH7971 them byH3027 DavidH1732 his sonH1121 unto SaulH7586.
And DavidH1732 cameH935 to SaulH7586, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him: and he lovedH157 him greatlyH3966; and he became his armourbearerH5375+H3627.
And SaulH7586 sentH7971 to JesseH3448, sayingH559, Let DavidH1732, I pray thee, standH5975 beforeH6440 me; for he hath foundH4672 favourH2580 in my sightH5869.
And it came to pass, when the evil spiritH7307 from GodH430 was upon SaulH7586, that DavidH1732 tookH3947 an harpH3658, and playedH5059 with his handH3027: so SaulH7586 was refreshedH7304, and was wellH2895, and the evilH7451 spiritH7307 departedH5493 from him.
And all the congregationH5712 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 journeyedH5265 from the wildernessH4057 of SinH5512, after their journeysH4550, according to the commandmentH6310 of the LORDH3068, and pitchedH2583 in RephidimH7508: and there was no waterH4325 for the peopleH5971 to drinkH8354.
Wherefore the peopleH5971 did chideH7378 with MosesH4872, and saidH559, GiveH5414 us waterH4325 that we may drinkH8354. And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto them, Why chideH7378 ye with me? wherefore do ye temptH5254 the LORDH3068?
And the peopleH5971 thirstedH6770 there for waterH4325; and the peopleH5971 murmuredH3885 against MosesH4872, and saidH559, Wherefore is this that thou hast broughtH5927 us up out of EgyptH4714, to killH4191 us and our childrenH1121 and our cattleH4735 with thirstH6772?
And MosesH4872 criedH6817 unto the LORDH3068, sayingH559, What shall I doH6213 unto this peopleH5971? they be almostH4592 ready to stoneH5619 me.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, Go onH5674 beforeH6440 the peopleH5971, and takeH3947 with thee of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478; and thy rodH4294, wherewith thou smotestH5221 the riverH2975, takeH3947 in thine handH3027, and goH1980.
Behold, I will standH5975 beforeH6440 thee there upon the rockH6697 in HorebH2722; and thou shalt smiteH5221 the rockH6697, and there shall comeH3318 waterH4325 out of it, that the peopleH5971 may drinkH8354. And MosesH4872 didH6213 so in the sightH5869 of the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478.
And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of the placeH4725 MassahH4532, and MeribahH4809, because of the chidingH7379 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and because they temptedH5254 the LORDH3068, sayingH559, IsH3426 the LORDH3068 amongH7130 us, or not? {Massah: that is, Temptation} {Meribah: that is, Chiding, or, Strife}
Then cameH935 AmalekH6002, and foughtH3898 with IsraelH3478 in RephidimH7508.
And MosesH4872 saidH559 unto JoshuaH3091, Choose us outH977 menH582, and go outH3318, fightH3898 with AmalekH6002: to morrowH4279 I will standH5324 on the topH7218 of the hillH1389 with the rodH4294 of GodH430 in mine handH3027. {Joshua: called Jesus}
So JoshuaH3091 didH6213 as MosesH4872 had saidH559 to him, and foughtH3898 with AmalekH6002: and MosesH4872, AaronH175, and HurH2354 went upH5927 to the topH7218 of the hillH1389.
And it came to pass, when MosesH4872 held upH7311 his handH3027, that IsraelH3478 prevailedH1396: and when he let downH5117 his handH3027, AmalekH6002 prevailedH1396.
But Moses'H4872 handsH3027 were heavyH3515; and they tookH3947 a stoneH68, and putH7760 it under him, and he satH3427 thereon; and AaronH175 and HurH2354 stayed upH8551 his handsH3027, the one on the one sideH259, and the other on the other sideH259; and his handsH3027 were steadyH530 until the going downH935 of the sunH8121.
And JoshuaH3091 discomfitedH2522 AmalekH6002 and his peopleH5971 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, WriteH3789 this for a memorialH2146 in a bookH5612, and rehearseH7760 it in the earsH241 of JoshuaH3091: for I will utterlyH4229 put outH4229 the remembranceH2143 of AmalekH6002 from under heavenH8064.
And MosesH4872 builtH1129 an altarH4196, and calledH7121 the nameH8034 of it JehovahnissiH3071: {Jehovahnissi: that is, The LORD my banner}
For he saidH559, Because the LORDH3050 hath swornH3027+H3676 that the LORDH3068 will have warH4421 with AmalekH6002 from generationH1755 to generationH1755. {Because…: or, Because the hand of Amalek is against the throne of the LORD, therefore, etc} {the LORD hath…: Heb. the hand upon the throne of the LORD}
Then cameH935 AmalekH6002, and foughtH3898 with IsraelH3478 in RephidimH7508.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto MosesH4872, WriteH3789 this for a memorialH2146 in a bookH5612, and rehearseH7760 it in the earsH241 of JoshuaH3091: for I will utterlyH4229 put outH4229 the remembranceH2143 of AmalekH6002 from under heavenH8064.
He shall pourH5140 the waterH4325 outH5140 of his bucketsH1805, and his seedH2233 shall be in manyH7227 watersH4325, and his kingH4428 shall be higherH7311 than AgagH90, and his kingdomH4438 shall be exaltedH5375.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 an angelG32 come downG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772, havingG2192 the keyG2807 of the bottomless pitG12 andG2532 a greatG3173 chainG254 inG1909 hisG846 handG5495.
AndG2532 he laid hold onG2902 the dragonG1404, that oldG744 serpentG3789, whichG3739 isG2076 the DevilG1228, andG2532 SatanG4567, andG2532 boundG1210 himG846 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094,
AndG2532 castG906 himG846 intoG1519 the bottomless pitG12, andG2532 shutG2808 himG846 upG2808, andG2532 set a sealG4972 uponG1883 himG846, thatG3363 he should deceiveG4105 the nationsG1484 noG3363 moreG2089, tillG891 the thousandG5507 yearsG2094 should be fulfilledG5055: andG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 heG846 mustG1163 be loosedG3089 a littleG3398 seasonG5550.
AndG2532 I sawG1492 thronesG2362, andG2532 they satG2523 uponG1909 themG846, andG2532 judgmentG2917 was givenG1325 unto themG846: andG2532 I saw the soulsG5590 of them that were beheadedG3990 forG1223 the witnessG3141 of JesusG2424, andG2532 forG1223 the wordG3056 of GodG2316, andG2532 whichG3748 hadG4352 notG3756 worshippedG4352 the beastG2342, neitherG3777 hisG846 imageG1504+G2532, neitherG3756 had receivedG2983 his markG5480 uponG1909 theirG846 foreheadsG3359, orG2532 inG1909 theirG846 handsG5495; andG2532 they livedG2198 andG2532 reignedG936 withG3326 ChristG5547 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094.
ButG1161 the restG3062 of the deadG3498 livedG326 notG3756 againG326 untilG2193 the thousandG5507 yearsG2094 were finishedG5055. ThisG3778 is the firstG4413 resurrectionG386.
BlessedG3107 andG2532 holyG40 is he that hathG2192 partG3313 inG1722 the firstG4413 resurrectionG386: onG1909 suchG5130 the secondG1208 deathG2288 hathG2192 noG3756 powerG1849, butG235 they shall beG2071 priestsG2409 of GodG2316 andG2532 of ChristG5547, andG2532 shall reignG936 withG3326 himG846 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094.
Therefore it shall be, when the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath given thee restH5117 from all thine enemiesH341 round aboutH5439, in the landH776 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159 to possessH3423 it, that thou shalt blot outH4229 the remembranceH2143 of AmalekH6002 from under heavenH8064; thou shalt not forgetH7911 it.
RememberH2142 what AmalekH6002 didH6213 unto thee by the wayH1870, when ye were come forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714;
How he metH7136 thee by the wayH1870, and smote the hindmostH2179 of thee, even all that were feebleH2826 behindH310 thee, when thou wast faintH5889 and wearyH3023; and he fearedH3373 not GodH430.
