1 Samuel 10:17-25

17And SamuelH8050 called the peopleH5971 together to Jehovah to MizpahH4709.

18And he saidH559 to the children of IsraelH3478, ThusH3541 saith Jehovah, the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478, I broughtH5927 up IsraelH3478 out of EgyptH4714, and deliveredH5337 you out of the handH3027 of the Egyptians, and out of the handH3027 of all the kingdomsH4467 that oppressedH3905 you;

19but ye have this dayH3117 rejectedH3988 your 2GodH430, who himself savedH3467 you out of all your adversities and your troubles, and have saidH559 unto him, [Nay,] but a kingH4428 shalt thou setH7760 over us. NowH6258 thereforeH6258 presentH3320 yourselves before Jehovah by your tribesH7626, and by your thousandsH505.

20And SamuelH8050 caused all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 to come near, and the tribeH7626 of BenjaminH1144 was takenH3920.

21And he caused the tribeH7626 of BenjaminH1144 to come near by their familiesH4940, and the familyH4940 of Matri was takenH3920; and SaulH7586 the sonH1121 of KishH7027 was takenH3920. And they soughtH1245 him, but he was not to be foundH4672.

22Therefore they inquired of Jehovah further, Will the manH376 yetH5750 comeH935 hither? And Jehovah answered, Behold, he hath hidH2244 himself among the baggage.

23And they ranH7323 and fetched him thence; and when he stoodH3320 among the peopleH5971, he was higher than any of the peopleH5971 from his shouldersH7926 and upwardH4605.

24And SamuelH8050 saidH559 to all the peopleH5971, SeeH7200 ye him whom Jehovah has chosenH977, that there is none like him among all the peopleH5971? And all the peopleH5971 shoutedH7321 and saidH559, May the kingH4428 liveH2421.

25And SamuelH8050 told the peopleH5971 the rightH4941 of the kingdom, and wroteH3789 it in the bookH5612, and laid it before Jehovah. And SamuelH8050 sentH7971 all the peopleH5971 awayH7971, every manH376 to his houseH1004.
