[1]And the Samuel toke a vessell of oyle, and powred it vpon his head, and kissed him, and sayd: Hath not the Lord annoynted thee, to be captaine ouer his inheritaunce [1]Then SamuelH8050 tookH3947[H8799] a vialH6378 of oilH8081, and pouredH3332[H8799] it upon his headH7218, and kissedH5401[H8799] him, and saidH559[H8799], Is it not because the LORDH3068 hath anointedH4886[H8804] thee to be captainH5057 over his inheritanceH5159?
[2]When thou art departed from me this day, thou shalt finde two men by Rahels sepulchre in ye border of Beniamin, euen at Zalezah, and they wil say vnto thee, ye asses which thou wetest to seke, are found: And lo, thy father hath left the care of the asses, & soroweth for you, saying: what shal I do for my sonne [2]When thou art departedH3212[H8800] from meH5978 to dayH3117, then thou shalt findH4672[H8804] twoH8147 menH582 by Rachel'sH7354 sepulchreH6900 in the borderH1366 of BenjaminH1144 at ZelzahH6766; and they will sayH559[H8804] unto thee, The assesH860 which thou wentestH1980[H8804] to seekH1245[H8763] are foundH4672[H8738]: and, lo, thy fatherH1 hath leftH5203[H8804] the careH1697 of the assesH860, and sorrowethH1672[H8804] for you, sayingH559[H8800], What shall I doH6213[H8799] for my sonH1121?

[5]After that, shalt thou come to the hil of God, wher is the garison of the Philistines: And when thou art come thyther to the citie, thou shalt meete a companie of prophetes comming downe fro the hyghe place, with a psalter, a timbrell, a pype, & a harpe before them, and they shal prophesie [5]AfterH310 that thou shalt comeH935[H8799] to the hillH1389 of GodH430, where is the garrisonH5333 of the PhilistinesH6430: and it shall come to pass, when thou art come thitherH935[H8800] to the cityH5892, that thou shalt meetH6293[H8804] a companyH2256 of prophetsH5030 coming downH3381[H8802] from the high placeH1116 with a psalteryH5035, and a tabretH8596, and a pipeH2485, and a harpH3658, beforeH6440 them; and they shall prophesyH5012:[H8693]
[6]And the spirite of the Lorde wil come vpon thee also, and thou shalt prophsie with them, & shalt be turned into another man [6]And the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 will comeH6743[H8804] upon thee, and thou shalt prophesyH5012[H8694] with them, and shalt be turnedH2015[H8738] into anotherH312 manH376.
[7]Therfore when these signes are come vnto thee, do what thou hast to do, for God is with thee [7]And let it be, when these signsH226 are comeH935[H8799] unto thee, that thou doH6213[H8798] as occasionH4672[H8799] serveH3027 thee; for God is with theeH430.

[9]And when he had turned his backe to go fro Samuel, God gaue him another hearte, and all those tokens came to passe that same day [9]And it was so, that when he had turnedH6437[H8687] his backH7926 to goH3212[H8800] from SamuelH8050, GodH430 gaveH2015[H8799] him anotherH312 heartH3820: and all those signsH226 cameH935[H8799] to pass that dayH3117.
[10]And when they came thyther to the hill, beholde, the companie of prophetes met him, and the spirite of God came vpon him, & he prophecied among the [10]And when they cameH935[H8799] thither to the hillH1389, behold, a companyH2256 of prophetsH5030 metH7125[H8800] him; and the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 cameH6743[H8799] upon him, and he prophesiedH5012[H8691] among themH8432.
[11]And all that knewe him before, when they sawe that he prophecied among the prophetes, they sayd eche to other: what is this that is come vnto the sonne of Cis? Is Saul also among the prophetes [11]And it came to pass, when all that knewH3045[H8802] him beforetimeH865[H8032] sawH7200[H8799] that, behold, he prophesiedH5012[H8738] among the prophetsH5030, then the peopleH5971 saidH559[H8799] oneH376 to anotherH7453, What is this that is come unto the sonH1121 of KishH7027? Is SaulH7586 also among the prophetsH5030?
[12]And one of the same place aunswered, and sayde: Who is their father? And therof came ye prouerbe: What is Saul also among the prophetes [12]And oneH376 of the same place answeredH6030[H8799] and saidH559[H8799], But who is their fatherH1? Therefore it became a proverbH4912, Is SaulH7586 also among the prophetsH5030?
[13]And whe he had made an ende of prophecying, he came to the hyghe place [13]And when he had made an endH3615[H8762] of prophesyingH5012[H8692], he cameH935[H8799] to the high placeH1116.
[14]And Sauls vncle sayde vnto him, and to his lad: Whyther went ye? He sayde, To seke the asses: And when we sawe that they were no where, we came to Samuel [14]And Saul'sH7586 uncleH1730 saidH559[H8799] unto him and to his servantH5288, WhitherH575 wentH1980[H8804] ye? And he saidH559[H8799], To seekH1245[H8763] the assesH860: and when we sawH7200[H8799] that they were no whereH369, we cameH935[H8799] to SamuelH8050.
[15]And Sauls vncle sayde: Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel sayd vnto you [15]And Saul'sH7586 uncleH1730 saidH559[H8799], TellH5046[H8685] me, I pray thee, what SamuelH8050 saidH559 unto youH8804.
[16]Saul aunswered his vncle: He tolde vs plainely that the asses were found. But of ye kingdome wherof Samuel spake, tolde he him not [16]And SaulH7586 saidH559[H8799] unto his uncleH1730, He toldH5046[H8689] us plainlyH5046[H8687] that the assesH860 were foundH4672[H8738]. But of the matterH1697 of the kingdomH4410, whereof SamuelH8050 spakeH559[H8804], he toldH5046 him notH8689.
[17]And Samuel called the people together vnto the Lorde to Mispah [17]And SamuelH8050 calledH6817[H8686] the peopleH5971 together unto the LORDH3068 to MizpehH4709;
[18]And sayd vnto the children of Israel: Thus sayde the Lorde God of Israel, I brought Israel out of Egypt, and deliuered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the handes of al kingdomes that troubled you [18]And saidH559[H8799] unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I brought upH5927[H8689] IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, and deliveredH5337[H8686] you out of the handH3027 of the EgyptiansH4714, and out of the handH3027 of all kingdomsH4467, and of them that oppressedH3905 youH8801:
[19]And ye haue this day cast away your God, who onely deliuereth you out of al your aduersities and tribulations. And ye haue sayd vnto him: No, but make a king ouer vs. Nowe therfore stande ye before the Lorde by your tribes, & your thousandes [19]And ye have this dayH3117 rejectedH3988[H8804] your GodH430, who himself savedH3467[H8688] you out of all your adversitiesH7451 and your tribulationsH6869; and ye have saidH559[H8799] unto him, Nay, but setH7760[H8799] a kingH4428 over us. Now therefore presentH3320[H8690] yourselves beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 by your tribesH7626, and by your thousandsH505.
[20]And when Samuel had assembled together all the tribes of Israel, the tribe of Beniamin was taken [20]And when SamuelH8050 had caused all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to come nearH7126[H8686], the tribeH7626 of BenjaminH1144 was takenH3920.[H8735]
[21]When he had assembled together the tribe of Beniamin by their kinredes, the kinred of Matri was caught, and at the last Saul the sonne of Cis was caught: And when they sought him, he coulde not be founde [21]When he had caused the tribeH7626 of BenjaminH1144 to come nearH7126[H8686] by their familiesH4940, the familyH4940 of MatriH4309 was takenH3920[H8735], and SaulH7586 the sonH1121 of KishH7027 was takenH3920[H8735]: and when they soughtH1245[H8762] him, he could not be foundH4672.[H8738]
[22]Therfore they asked the Lord further, if the man should yet come thyther? And the Lord aunswered: Behold he hath hyd him selfe among the stuffe [22]Therefore they enquiredH7592[H8799] of the LORDH3068 further, if the manH376 should yet comeH935[H8804] thitherH1988. And the LORDH3068 answeredH559[H8799], Behold, he hath hidH2244[H8737] himself among the stuffH3627.
[23]And they ranne and set him thence, and when he stoode among the people, he was hygher then any of the people from the shoulders vpwarde [23]And they ranH7323[H8799] and fetchedH3947[H8799] him thence: and when he stoodH3320[H8691] amongH8432 the peopleH5971, he was higherH1361[H8799] than any of the peopleH5971 from his shouldersH7926 and upwardH4605.
[24]And Samuel said to al the people: See ye not him whom the Lorde hath chosen, and howe there is none lyke him among all the people? And all the people showted, and sayd: God saue the king [24]And SamuelH8050 saidH559[H8799] to all the peopleH5971, SeeH7200[H8804] ye him whom the LORDH3068 hath chosenH977[H8804], that there is none like him among all the peopleH5971? And all the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321[H8686], and saidH559[H8799], God saveH2421[H8799] the kingH4428.
[25]Then Samuel tolde the people the duetie of the kingdome, & wrote it in a booke, and laide it vp before the Lord, and sent all the people away, euery man to his house [25]Then SamuelH8050 toldH1696[H8762] the peopleH5971 the mannerH4941 of the kingdomH4410, and wroteH3789[H8799] it in a bookH5612, and laid it upH3240[H8686] beforeH6440 the LORDH3068. And SamuelH8050 sentH7971 all the peopleH5971 awayH7971[H8762], every manH376 to his houseH1004.
[26]And Saul also went home to Gibea, and there folowed him a band of men, whose heartes God had touched [26]And SaulH7586 also wentH1980[H8804] homeH1004 to GibeahH1390; and there wentH3212[H8799] with him a band of menH2428, whose heartsH3820 GodH430 had touchedH5060.[H8804]
[27]But the children of Belial sayd: Howe shall he saue vs? And they despised him, and, brought him no presentes: And he helde his tongue [27]But the childrenH1121 of BelialH1100 saidH559[H8804], How shall this man saveH3467[H8686] us? And they despisedH959[H8799] him, and broughtH935[H8689] him no presentsH4503. But he held his peaceH2790.[H8688]
