1 Samuel 10

KJV

1  Then Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ took^{3947 853} a vial⁶³⁷⁸ of oil,⁸⁰⁸¹ and poured³³³² it upon⁵⁹²¹ his head,⁷²¹⁸ and kissed⁵⁴⁰¹ him, and said,⁵⁵⁹ Is it not³⁸⁰⁸ because³⁵⁸⁸ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath anointed⁴⁸⁸⁶ thee to be captain⁵⁰⁵⁷ over⁵⁹²¹ his inheritance?⁵¹⁵⁹

2  When thou art departed¹⁹⁸⁰ from^{4480 5973} me today,³¹¹⁷ then thou shalt find⁴⁶⁷² two⁸¹⁴⁷ men³⁷⁶ by⁵⁹⁷³ Rachel's⁷³⁵⁴ sepulcher⁶⁹⁰⁰ in the border¹³⁶⁶ of Benjamin¹¹⁴⁴ at Zelzah;⁶⁷⁶⁶ and they will say⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ thee, The asses⁸⁶⁰ which⁸³⁴ thou wentest¹⁹⁸⁰ to seek¹²⁴⁵ are found:⁴⁶⁷² and, lo,²⁰⁰⁹ thy father¹ hath left^{5203 853} the care¹⁶⁹⁷ of the asses,⁸⁶⁰ and sorroweth¹⁶⁷² for you, saying,⁵⁵⁹ What⁴¹⁰⁰ shall I do⁶²¹³ for my son?¹¹²¹

3  Then shalt thou go on²⁴⁹⁸ forward¹⁹⁷³ from thence,^{4480 8033} and thou shalt come⁹³⁵ to⁵⁷⁰⁴ the plain⁴³⁶ of Tabor,⁸³⁹⁶ and there⁸⁰³³ shall meet⁴⁶⁷² thee three⁷⁹⁶⁹ men³⁷⁶ going up⁵⁹²⁷ to⁴¹³ God⁴³⁰ to Bethel,¹⁰⁰⁸ one²⁵⁹ carrying⁵³⁷⁵ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ kids,¹⁴²³ and another²⁵⁹ carrying⁵³⁷⁵ three⁷⁹⁶⁹ loaves³⁶⁰³ of bread,³⁸⁹⁹ and another²⁵⁹ carrying⁵³⁷⁵ a bottle⁵⁰³⁵ of wine:³¹⁹⁶

4  And they will salute^{7592 7965} thee, and give⁵⁴¹⁴ thee two⁸¹⁴⁷ loaves of bread;³⁸⁹⁹ which thou shalt receive³⁹⁴⁷ of their hands.^{4480 3027}

5  After that^{310 3651} thou shalt come⁹³⁵ to the hill¹³⁸⁹ of God,⁴³⁰ where^{834 8033} is the garrison⁵³³³ of the Philistines:⁶⁴³⁰ and it shall come to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when thou art come⁹³⁵ thither⁸⁰³³ to the city,⁵⁸⁹² that thou shalt meet⁶²⁹³ a company²²⁵⁶ of prophets⁵⁰³⁰ coming down³³⁸¹ from the high place^{4480 1116} with a psaltery,⁵⁰³⁵ and a tabret,⁸⁵⁹⁶ and a pipe,²⁴⁸⁵ and a harp,³⁶⁵⁸ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ them; and they¹⁹⁹² shall prophesy:⁵⁰¹²

6  And the Spirit⁷³⁰⁷ of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ will come⁶⁷⁴³ upon⁵⁹²¹ thee, and thou shalt prophesy⁵⁰¹² with them,⁵⁹⁷³ and shalt be turned²⁰¹⁵ into another³¹² man.³⁷⁶

7  And let it be,¹⁹⁶¹ when³⁵⁸⁸ these⁴²⁸ signs²²⁶ are come⁹³⁵ unto thee, that thou do⁶²¹³ as occasion serve^{834 4672 3027} thee; for³⁵⁸⁸ God⁴³⁰ is with⁵⁹⁷³ thee.

8  And thou shalt go down³³⁸¹ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ me to Gilgal;¹⁵³⁷ and, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ I⁵⁹⁵ will come down³³⁸¹ unto⁴¹³ thee, to offer⁵⁹²⁷ burnt offerings,⁵⁹³⁰ and to sacrifice²⁰⁷⁶ sacrifices²⁰⁷⁷ of peace offerings:⁸⁰⁰² seven⁷⁶⁵¹ days³¹¹⁷ shalt thou tarry,³¹⁷⁶ till⁵⁷⁰⁴ I come⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ thee, and show³⁰⁴⁵ thee ⁸⁵³ what⁸³⁴ thou shalt do.⁶²¹³

9  And it was¹⁹⁶¹ so, that when he had turned⁶⁴³⁷ his back⁷⁹²⁶ to go¹⁹⁸⁰ from^{4480 5973} Samuel,⁸⁰⁵⁰ God⁴³⁰ gave²⁰¹⁵ him another³¹² heart:³⁸²⁰ and all³⁶⁰⁵ those⁴²⁸ signs²²⁶ came to pass⁹³⁵ that¹⁹³¹ day.³¹¹⁷

10  And when they came⁹³⁵ thither⁸⁰³³ to the hill,¹³⁸⁹ behold,²⁰⁰⁹ a company²²⁵⁶ of prophets⁵⁰³⁰ met⁷¹²⁵ him; and the Spirit⁷³⁰⁷ of God⁴³⁰ came⁶⁷⁴³ upon⁵⁹²¹ him, and he prophesied⁵⁰¹² among⁸⁴³² them.

11  And it came to pass,¹⁹⁶¹ when all³⁶⁰⁵ that knew³⁰⁴⁵ him formerly^{4480 865 8032} saw⁷²⁰⁰ that, behold,²⁰⁰⁹ he prophesied⁵⁰¹² among⁵⁹⁷³ the prophets,⁵⁰³⁰ then the people⁵⁹⁷¹ said⁵⁵⁹ one³⁷⁶ to⁴¹³ another,⁷⁴⁵³ What⁴¹⁰⁰ is this²⁰⁸⁸ that is come¹⁹⁶¹ unto the son¹¹²¹ of Kish?⁷⁰²⁷ Is Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ also¹⁵⁷¹ among the prophets?⁵⁰³⁰

12  And one³⁷⁶ of the same place^{4480 8033} answered⁶⁰³⁰ and said,⁵⁵⁹ But who⁴³¹⁰ is their father?¹ Therefore^{5921 3651} it became¹⁹⁶¹ a proverb,⁴⁹¹² Is Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ also¹⁵⁷¹ among the prophets?⁵⁰³⁰

13  And when he had made an end³⁶¹⁵ of prophesying,^{4480 5012} he came⁹³⁵ to the high place.¹¹¹⁶

14  And Saul's⁷⁵⁸⁶ uncle¹⁷³⁰ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ him and to⁴¹³ his servant,⁵²⁸⁸ Whither⁵⁷⁵ went¹⁹⁸⁰ ye? And he said,⁵⁵⁹ To seek^{1245 853} the asses:⁸⁶⁰ and when we saw⁷²⁰⁰ that³⁵⁸⁸ they were no where,³⁶⁹ we came⁹³⁵ to⁴¹³ Samuel.⁸⁰⁵⁰

15  And Saul's⁷⁵⁸⁶ uncle¹⁷³⁰ said,⁵⁵⁹ Tell⁵⁰⁴⁶ me, I pray thee,⁴⁹⁹⁴ what⁴¹⁰⁰ Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ said⁵⁵⁹ unto you.

16  And Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ his uncle,¹⁷³⁰ He told us plainly^{5046 5046} that³⁵⁸⁸ the asses⁸⁶⁰ were found.⁴⁶⁷² But of the matter¹⁶⁹⁷ of the kingdom,⁴⁴¹⁰ whereof⁸³⁴ Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ spoke,⁵⁵⁹ he told⁵⁰⁴⁶ him not.³⁸⁰⁸

17  And Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ called the people together^{6817 853 5971} unto⁴¹³ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ to Mizpeh;⁴⁷⁰⁹

18  And said⁵⁵⁹ unto⁴¹³ the children¹¹²¹ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ Thus³⁵⁴¹ saith⁵⁵⁹ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ God⁴³⁰ of Israel,³⁴⁷⁸ I⁵⁹⁵ brought up^{5927 853} Israel³⁴⁷⁸ out of Egypt,^{4480 4714} and delivered⁵³³⁷ you out of the hand^{4480 3027} of the Egyptians,⁴⁷¹⁴ and out of the hand^{4480 3027} of all³⁶⁰⁵ kingdoms,⁴⁴⁶⁷ and of them that oppressed³⁹⁰⁵ you:

19  And ye⁸⁵⁹ have this day³¹¹⁷ rejected^{3988 853} your God,⁴³⁰ who⁸³⁴ himself¹⁹³¹ saved³⁴⁶⁷ you out of all^{4480 3605} your adversities⁷⁴⁵¹ and your tribulations;⁶⁸⁶⁹ and ye have said⁵⁵⁹ unto him, Nay, but³⁵⁸⁸ set⁷⁷⁶⁰ a king⁴⁴²⁸ over⁵⁹²¹ us. Now⁶²⁵⁸ therefore present yourselves³³²⁰ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ by your tribes,⁷⁶²⁶ and by your thousands.⁵⁰⁵

20  And when Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ had caused ⁸⁵³ all³⁶⁰⁵ the tribes⁷⁶²⁶ of Israel³⁴⁷⁸ to come near,⁷¹²⁶ the tribe⁷⁶²⁶ of Benjamin¹¹⁴⁴ was taken.³⁹²⁰

21  When he had caused ⁸⁵³ the tribe⁷⁶²⁶ of Benjamin¹¹⁴⁴ to come near⁷¹²⁶ by their families,⁴⁹⁴⁰ the family⁴⁹⁴⁰ of Matri⁴³⁰⁹ was taken,³⁹²⁰ and Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ the son¹¹²¹ of Kish⁷⁰²⁷ was taken:³⁹²⁰ and when they sought¹²⁴⁵ him, he could not³⁸⁰⁸ be found.⁴⁶⁷²

22  Therefore they inquired⁷⁵⁹² of the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ further,⁵⁷⁵⁰ if the man³⁷⁶ should yet⁵⁷⁵⁰ come⁹³⁵ thither.¹⁹⁸⁸ And the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ answered,⁵⁵⁹ Behold,²⁰⁰⁹ he¹⁹³¹ hath hid himself²²⁴⁴ among⁴¹³ the stuff.³⁶²⁷

23  And they ran⁷³²³ and fetched³⁹⁴⁷ him thence:^{4480 8033} and when he stood³³²⁰ among⁸⁴³² the people,⁵⁹⁷¹ he was higher¹³⁶¹ than any^{4480 3605} of the people⁵⁹⁷¹ from his shoulders^{4480 7926} and upward.⁴⁶⁰⁵

24  And Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ said⁵⁵⁹ to⁴¹³ all³⁶⁰⁵ the people,⁵⁹⁷¹ See⁷²⁰⁰ ye him whom⁸³⁴ the LORD³⁰⁶⁸ hath chosen,⁹⁷⁷ that³⁵⁸⁸ there is none³⁶⁹ like him³⁶⁴⁴ among all³⁶⁰⁵ the people?⁵⁹⁷¹ And all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ shouted,⁷³²¹ and said,⁵⁵⁹ God save²⁴²¹ the king.⁴⁴²⁸

25  Then Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ told^{1696 413} the people^{5971 853} the manner⁴⁹⁴¹ of the kingdom,⁴⁴¹⁰ and wrote³⁷⁸⁹ it in a book,⁵⁶¹² and laid it up⁵¹¹⁷ before⁶⁴⁴⁰ the LORD.³⁰⁶⁸ And Samuel⁸⁰⁵⁰ sent^{7971 853} all³⁶⁰⁵ the people⁵⁹⁷¹ away, every man³⁷⁶ to his house.¹⁰⁰⁴

26  And Saul⁷⁵⁸⁶ also¹⁵⁷¹ went¹⁹⁸⁰ home¹⁰⁰⁴ to Gibeah;¹³⁹⁰ and there went¹⁹⁸⁰ with⁵⁹⁷³ him a band of men,²⁴²⁸ whose⁸³⁴ hearts³⁸²⁰ God⁴³⁰ had touched.⁵⁰⁶⁰

27  But the children¹¹²¹ of Belial¹¹⁰⁰ said,⁵⁵⁹ How⁴¹⁰⁰ shall this²⁰⁸⁸ man save³⁴⁶⁷ us? And they despised⁹⁵⁹ him, and brought⁹³⁵ him no³⁸⁰⁸ presents.⁴⁵⁰³ But he held his peace.²⁷⁹⁰

1 καὶ ἔλαβεν Σαμουηλ τὸν φακὸν τοῦ ἐλαίου καὶ ἐπέχεεν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐφίλησεν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ οὐχὶ κέχρικέν σε κύριος εἰς ἄρχοντα ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Ισραηλ καὶ σὺ ἄρξεις ἐν λαῷ κυρίου καὶ σὺ σώσεις αὐτὸν ἐκ χειρὸς ἐχθρῶν αὐτοῦ κυκλόθεν καὶ τοῦτό σοι τὸ σημεῖον ὅτι ἔχρισέν σε κύριος ἐπὶ κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ εἰς ἄρχοντα

2 ὡς ἂν ἀπέλθῃς σήμερον ἀπ᾽ ἐμοῦ καὶ εὑρήσεις δύο ἄνδρας πρὸς τοῖς τάφοις Ραχηλ ἐν τῷ ὁρίῳ Βενιαμιν ἁλλομένους μεγάλα καὶ ἐροῦσίν σοι εὕρηνται αἱ ὄνοι ἃς ἐπορεύθητε ζητεῖν καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ πατήρ σου ἀποτετίνακται τὸ ῥῆμα τῶν ὄνων καὶ ἐδαψιλεύσατο δι᾽ ὑμᾶς λέγων τί ποιήσω ὑπὲρ τοῦ υἱοῦ μου

3 καὶ ἀπελεύσει ἐκεῖθεν καὶ ἐπέκεινα ἥξεις ἕως τῆς δρυὸς Θαβωρ καὶ εὑρήσεις ἐκεῖ τρεῖς ἄνδρας ἀναβαίνοντας πρὸς τὸν θεὸν εἰς Βαιθηλ ἕνα αἴροντα τρία αἰγίδια καὶ ἕνα αἴροντα τρία ἀγγεῖα ἄρτων καὶ ἕνα αἴροντα ἀσκὸν οἴνου

4 καὶ ἐρωτήσουσίν σε τὰ εἰς εἰρήνην καὶ δώσουσίν σοι δύο ἀπαρχὰς ἄρτων καὶ λήμψῃ ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτῶν

5 καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα εἰσελεύσῃ εἰς τὸν βουνὸν τοῦ θεοῦ οὗ ἐστιν ἐκεῖ τὸ ἀνάστημα τῶν ἀλλοφύλων ἐκεῖ Νασιβ ὁ ἀλλόφυλος καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἂν εἰσέλθητε ἐκεῖ εἰς τὴν πόλιν καὶ ἀπαντήσεις χορῷ προφητῶν καταβαινόντων ἐκ τῆς Βαμα καὶ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτῶν νάβλα καὶ τύμπανον καὶ αὐλὸς καὶ κινύρα καὶ αὐτοὶ προφητεύοντες

6 καὶ ἐφαλεῖται ἐπὶ σὲ πνεῦμα κυρίου καὶ προφητεύσεις μετ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ στραφήσῃ εἰς ἄνδρα ἄλλον

7 καὶ ἔσται ὅταν ἥξει τὰ σημεῖα ταῦτα ἐπὶ σέ ποίει πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν εὕρῃ ἡ χείρ σου ὅτι θεὸς μετὰ σοῦ

8 καὶ καταβήσῃ ἔμπροσθεν τῆς Γαλγαλα καὶ ἰδοὺ καταβαίνω πρὸς σὲ ἀνενεγκεῖν ὁλοκαύτωσιν καὶ θυσίας εἰρηνικάς ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας διαλείψεις ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν με πρὸς σέ καὶ γνωρίσω σοι ἃ ποιήσεις

9 καὶ ἐγενήθη ὥστε ἐπιστραφῆναι τῷ ὤμῳ αὐτοῦ ἀπελθεῖν ἀπὸ Σαμουηλ μετέστρεψεν αὐτῷ ὁ θεὸς καρδίαν ἄλλην καὶ ἦλθεν πάντα τὰ σημεῖα ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ

10 καὶ ἔρχεται ἐκεῖθεν εἰς τὸν βουνόν καὶ ἰδοὺ χορὸς προφητῶν ἐξ ἐναντίας αὐτοῦ καὶ ἥλατο ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν πνεῦμα θεοῦ καὶ ἐπροφήτευσεν ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν

11 καὶ ἐγενήθησαν πάντες οἱ εἰδότες αὐτὸν ἐχθὲς καὶ τρίτην καὶ εἶδον καὶ ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς ἐν μέσῳ τῶν προφητῶν καὶ εἶπεν ὁ λαὸς ἕκαστος πρὸς τὸν πλησίον αὐτοῦ τί τοῦτο τὸ γεγονὸς τῷ υἱῷ Κις ἦ καὶ Σαουλ ἐν προφήταις

12 καὶ ἀπεκρίθη τις αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπεν καὶ τίς πατὴρ αὐτοῦ διὰ τοῦτο ἐγενήθη εἰς παραβολήν ἦ καὶ Σαουλ ἐν προφήταις

13 καὶ συνετέλεσεν προφητεύων καὶ ἔρχεται εἰς τὸν βουνόν

14 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ οἰκεῖος αὐτοῦ πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ πρὸς τὸ παιδάριον αὐτοῦ ποῦ ἐπορεύθητε καὶ εἶπαν ζητεῖν τὰς ὄνους καὶ εἴδαμεν ὅτι οὐκ εἰσίν καὶ εἰσήλθομεν πρὸς Σαμουηλ

15 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ οἰκεῖος πρὸς Σαουλ ἀπάγγειλον δή μοι τί εἶπέν σοι Σαμουηλ

16 καὶ εἶπεν Σαουλ πρὸς τὸν οἰκεῖον αὐτοῦ ἀπήγγειλεν ἀπαγγέλλων μοι ὅτι εὕρηνται αἱ ὄνοι τὸ δὲ ῥῆμα τῆς βασιλείας οὐκ ἀπήγγειλεν αὐτῷ

17 καὶ παρήγγειλεν Σαμουηλ παντὶ τῷ λαῷ πρὸς κύριον εἰς Μασσηφα

18 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ τάδε εἶπεν κύριος ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ λέγων ἐγὼ ἀνήγαγον τοὺς υἱοὺς Ισραηλ ἐξ Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐξειλάμην ὑμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς Φαραω βασιλέως Αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐκ πασῶν τῶν βασιλειῶν τῶν θλιβουσῶν ὑμᾶς

19 καὶ ὑμεῖς σήμερον ἐξουθενήκατε τὸν θεόν ὃς αὐτός ἐστιν ὑμῶν σωτὴρ ἐκ πάντων τῶν κακῶν ὑμῶν καὶ θλίψεων ὑμῶν καὶ εἴπατε οὐχί ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ὅτι βασιλέα στήσεις ἐφ᾽ ἡμῶν καὶ νῦν κατάστητε ἐνώπιον κυρίου κατὰ τὰ σκῆπτρα ὑμῶν καὶ κατὰ τὰς φυλὰς ὑμῶν

20 καὶ προσήγαγεν Σαμουηλ πάντα τὰ σκῆπτρα Ισραηλ καὶ κατακληροῦται σκῆπτρον Βενιαμιν

21 καὶ προσάγει σκῆπτρον Βενιαμιν εἰς φυλάς καὶ κατακληροῦται φυλὴ Ματταρι καὶ προσάγουσιν τὴν φυλὴν Ματταρι εἰς ἄνδρας καὶ κατακληροῦται Σαουλ υἱὸς Κις καὶ ἐζήτει αὐτόν καὶ οὐχ εὑρίσκετο

22 καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν Σαμουηλ ἔτι ἐν κυρίῳ εἰ ἔρχεται ὁ ἀνὴρ ἐνταῦθα καὶ εἶπεν κύριος ἰδοὺ αὐτὸς κέκρυπται ἐν τοῖς σκεύεσιν

23 καὶ ἔδραμεν καὶ λαμβάνει αὐτὸν ἐκεῖθεν καὶ κατέστησεν ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ ὑψώθη ὑπὲρ πάντα τὸν λαὸν ὑπὲρ ὠμίαν καὶ ἐπάνω

24 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουηλ πρὸς πάντα τὸν λαόν εἰ ἑοράκατε ὃν ἐκλέλεκται ἑαυτῷ κύριος ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν αὐτῷ ὅμοιος ἐν πᾶσιν ὑμῖν καὶ ἔγνωσαν πᾶς ὁ λαὸς καὶ εἶπαν ζήτω ὁ βασιλεύς

25 καὶ εἶπεν Σαμουηλ πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τὸ δικαίωμα τοῦ βασιλέως καὶ ἔγραψεν ἐν βιβλίῳ καὶ ἔθηκεν ἐνώπιον κυρίου καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Σαμουηλ πάντα τὸν λαόν καὶ ἀπῆλθεν ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν τόπον αὐτοῦ

26 καὶ Σαουλ ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ εἰς Γαβαα καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν υἱοὶ δυνάμεων ὧν ἥψατο κύριος καρδίας αὐτῶν μετὰ Σαουλ

27 καὶ υἱοὶ λοιμοὶ εἶπαν τί σώσει ἡμᾶς οὗτος καὶ ἠτίμασαν αὐτὸν καὶ οὐκ ἤνεγκαν αὐτῷ δῶρα

1 Tulit autem Samuel lenticulam olei, et effudit super caput ejus: et deosculatus est eum, et ait: Ecce unxit te Dominus super hæreditatem suam in principem, et liberabis populum suum de manibus inimicorum ejus qui in circuitu ejus sunt. Et hoc tibi signum, quia unxit te Deus in principem.

2 Cum abieris hodie a me, invenies duos viros juxta sepulchrum Rachel in finibus Benjamin, in meridie: dicentque tibi: Inventæ sunt asinæ ad quas ieras perquirendas: et intermissis pater tuus asinis, sollicitus est pro vobis, et dicit: Quid faciam de filio meo?

3 Cumque abieris inde, et ultra transieris, et veneris ad quercum Thabor, invenient te ibi tres viri ascendentes ad Deum in Bethel, unus portans tres hædos, et alius tres tortas panis, et alius portans lagenam vini.

4 Cumque te salutaverint, dabunt tibi duos panes, et accipies de manu eorum.

5 Post hæc venies in collem Dei, ubi est statio Philisthinorum: et cum ingressus fueris ibi urbem, obvium habebis gregem prophetarum descendentium de excelso, et ante eos psalterium, et tympanum, et tibiam, et citharam, ipsosque prophetantes.

6 Et insiliet in te spiritus Domini, et prophetabis cum eis, et mutaberis in virum alium.

7 Quando ergo evenerint signa hæc omnia tibi, fac quæcumque invenerit manus tua, quia Dominus tecum est.

8 Et descendes ante me in Galgala (ego quippe descendam ad te), ut offeras oblationem, et immoles victimas pacificas: septem diebus expectabis, donec veniam ad te, et ostendam tibi quid facias.

9 Itaque cum avertisset humerum suum ut abiret a Samuele, immutavit ei Deus cor aliud, et venerunt omnia signa hæc in die illa.

10 Veneruntque ad prædictum collem, et ecce cuneus prophetarum obvius ei: et insiluit super eum spiritus Domini, et prophetavit in medio eorum.

11 Videntes autem omnes qui noverant eum heri et nudiustertius quod esset cum prophetis, et prophetaret, dixerunt ad invicem: Quænam res accidit filio Cis? num et Saul inter prophetas?

12 Responditque alius ad alterum, dicens: Et quis pater eorum? Propterea versum est in proverbium: Num et Saul inter prophetas?

13 Cessavit autem prophetare, et venit ad excelsum.

14 Dixitque patruus Saul ad eum, et ad puerum ejus: Quo abistis? Qui responderunt: Quærere asinas: quas cum non reperissemus, venimus ad Samuelem.

15 Et dixit ei patruus suus: Indica mihi quid dixerit tibi Samuel.

16 Et ait Saul ad patruum suum: Indicavit nobis quia inventæ essent asinæ. De sermone autem regni non indicavit ei quem locutus fuerat ei Samuel.

17 Et convocavit Samuel populum ad Dominum in Maspha:

18 et ait ad filios Israël: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël: Ego eduxi Israël de Ægypto, et erui vos de manu Ægyptiorum, et de manu omnium regum qui affligebant vos.

19 Vos autem hodie projecistis Deum vestrum, qui solus salvavit vos de universis malis et tribulationibus vestris: et dixistis: Nequaquam: sed regem constitue super nos. Nunc ergo state coram Domino per tribus vestras, et per familias.

20 Et applicuit Samuel omnes tribus Israël, et cecidit sors tribus Benjamin.

21 Et applicuit tribum Benjamin et cognationes ejus, et cecidit cognatio Metri: et pervenit usque ad Saul filium Cis. Quæsierunt ergo eum, et non est inventus.

22 Et consuluerunt post hæc Dominum utrumnam venturus esset illuc. Responditque Dominus: Ecce absconditus est domi.

23 Cucurrerunt itaque et tulerunt eum inde: stetitque in medio populi, et altior fuit universo populo ab humero et sursum.

24 Et ait Samuel ad omnem populum: Certe videtis quem elegit Dominus, quoniam non sit similis illi in omni populo. Et clamavit omnis populus, et ait: Vivat rex.

25 Locutus est autem Samuel ad populum legem regni, et scripsit in libro, et reposuit coram Domino: et dimisit Samuel omnem populum, singulos in domum suam.

26 Sed et Saul abiit in domum suam in Gabaa: et abiit cum eo pars exercitus, quorum tetigerat Deus corda.

27 Filii vero Belial dixerunt: Num salvare nos poterit iste? Et despexerunt eum, et non attulerunt ei munera: ille vero dissimulabat se audire.
