1 Samuel 9:1-3

1Now there was a man of Benjamin whose name was 1Kish the son of Abiel, son of Zeror, son of Becorath, son of Aphiah, son of a Benjaminite, a 2valiant mighty man. 2He had a son whose name was Saul, a 3young and handsome man, and there was not a more handsome man than he among the sons of Israel; 4from his shoulders and up he was taller than any of the people.

3Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul’s father, had wandered off. So Kish said to his son Saul, “Now take with you one of the servants and arise, go search for the donkeys.”
