1 Samuel 16:2-5
2But SamuelH8050 saidH559, “HowH349 can I goH1980? When SaulH7586 hearsH8085 about it, he will killH2026 me.” But the LordH3068 saidH559, “1TakeH3947 a heiferH5697H1241 2with you and sayH559, ‘I have comeH935 to sacrificeH2076 to the LordH3068.’ 3And you shall inviteH7121 JesseH3448 to the sacrificeH2077, and 3I will letH3045 you knowH3045 whatH834 you shall doH6213; and 4you shall anointH4886 for Me the one whomH834 I 5designateH559 to you.” 4So SamuelH8050 didH6213 whatH834 the LordH3068 toldH1696 him, and he cameH935 to 6BethlehemH1035. Then the eldersH2205 of the cityH5892 cameH2729 tremblingH2729 to meetH7122 him and saidH559, “7Do you comeH935 in peaceH7965?” 5And he saidH559, “In peaceH7965; I have comeH935 to sacrificeH2076 to the LordH3068. 8ConsecrateH6942 yourselves and comeH935 with me to the sacrificeH2077.” He also consecratedH6942 JesseH3448 and his sonsH1121 and invitedH7121 them to the sacrificeH2077.
