1 Samuel 9:8-16

8The servantH5288 answeredH6030 SaulH7586 againH3254 and saidH559, “LookH2009, I haveH4672 in my handH3027 a fourthH7253 of a shekelH8255 of silverH3701; I will giveH5414 it to the manH376 of GodH430 and he will 1tellH5046 us our wayH1870.” 9(PreviouslyH6440 in IsraelH3478, when a manH376 wentH1980 to inquireH1875 of GodH430, he used to sayH559, “ComeH1980, and let’s goH1980 to the seerH7203”; for he who is called a prophetH5030 nowH3117 was previouslyH6440 calledH7121 2a seerH7203.) 10Then SaulH7586 saidH559 to his servantH5288, “3GoodH2896 ideaH1697; comeH1980, let’s goH1980.” So they wentH1980 to the cityH5892 whereH834H8033 the manH376 of GodH430 was.

11As they wentH5927 upH5927 the slopeH4608 to the cityH5892, 4they foundH4672 youngH5291 womenH5291 goingH3318 outH3318 to drawH7579 waterH4325, and they saidH559 to them, “Is the seerH7203 hereH2088?” 12They answeredH6030 them and saidH559, “He is; 5seeH2009, he is aheadH6440 of you. HurryH4116 nowH6258, for he has comeH935 into the cityH5892 todayH3117, becauseH3588 6the peopleH5971 have a sacrificeH2077 on 7the highH1116 placeH1116 todayH3117. 13As soonH3651 as you enterH935 the cityH5892 you will findH4672 him beforeH2962 he goesH5927 upH5927 to the highH1116 placeH1116 to eatH398, for the peopleH5971 will not eatH398 untilH5704 he comesH935, becauseH3588 8he must blessH1288 the sacrificeH2077; afterwardH310H3651 those who are invitedH7121 will eatH398. NowH6258 then, goH5927 upH5927, for you will findH4672 him about this timeH3117.” 14So they wentH5927 upH5927 to the cityH5892. As they cameH935 into the cityH5892, beholdH2009, SamuelH8050 was comingH3318 outH3318 towardH7122 them to goH5927 upH5927 to the highH1116 placeH1116.

15Now a dayH3117 beforeH6440 Saul’sH7586 comingH935, 9the LordH3068 had 10revealedH1540H241 this to SamuelH8050, sayingH559, 16“About this timeH6256 tomorrowH4279 I will sendH7971 you a manH376 from the landH776 of BenjaminH1144, and 11you shall anointH4886 him as rulerH5057 overH5921 My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; and he will saveH3467 My peopleH5971 from the handH3027 of the PhilistinesH6430. For 12I have consideredH7200 My peopleH5971, becauseH3588 their outcryH6818 has comeH935 to Me.”
